Question was, what would we do different in the same situation that we stuffed our bellies in? All that comes to mind is, "stop". "Just say no" - ha, ha, ha. I've discovered that my brain does have the power to make my hand not go to my mouth all the time when it's holding food. However, my brain does have to want to do this control, and therein lies the problem. Ask God to get between me and the food.

So, in saying that, here's what my husband and house guest have been eating the last few days:

Chips
Almond M&Ms
Red and Black Licorice
Coffee
Potato Salad
Ice Cream

Those are the highlights. But I'll tell you what, there wasn't one bite of that that I didn't want. I mean, I really wanted it. But God gives me a clean slate the next day with new mercies every morning. I'm looking forward to that clean slate tomorrow and asking His strength to go before me. God is good that way :o) Kristi <><
