Jen Fulwiler nails it this morning:
Look in the mirror. If you don’t see a beautiful person who is worthy of love no matter what size clothes she wears, forget about weight loss for a while. Spend some time talking with friends who build you up, praying, or even getting therapy to help you embrace your status as a beloved child of God. It’s not time to start trying to lose weight until you’re secure in the knowledge that your worth has nothing to do with a number on a scale.
If you pass that test, read the rest of her Lazy Nerd’s Guide to Weight Loss.

I’ll be going in for another round of vexation this afternoon at 2. Thanks for your prayers, and please keep the SuperHusband in your prayers especially. He bears the brunt of the vexation. Also please pray for a special intention on behalf of some lovely friends of ours — the intention isn’t fit for public consumption, but it is most certainly a worthy cause for five lovely souls. Thanks!
It’s 1:22 and I just saw this. I’ll be covering you and yours in prayer. Memorare UP!
Woohoo- thanks! Waiting on the spouse and then off we go!
If only wives could see themselves through husbands’ eyes.
It makes us nervous sometimes . . .
