Adding a new book to the read list:

I don't know how many of you like to read while you travel, but I like to find good books to read in my down time. I can't read in the car, but I can read while I'm flying and about to see if I can read while riding the train.

While looking for a book to read, because I couldn't wait for my trip to read Reshaping it All by Candace Cameron Bure, I found Made to Crave by Lysa Terkeurst. Needless to say...I couldn't wait until my trip this coming Saturday to start to read it! It is going to be a good read!

So far I have read the introduction and the first two chapters. I only read a chapter per day as she has thought provoking questions at the end of each chapter as to why you turn to food instead of turning to God.

Now that I have been in Weight Watchers for a while, I have learned the healthy way to eat..but still have trouble at times with my "mental" of why I eat what and when I do. I ask myself the question: "Am I living to eat, or am I eating to live?" It's a tough question because in society and especially my southern family...we LOVE to eat! Every get together pretty much involves good food!

So as I continue my journey...I'm working on addressing the mental more and more and realizing that the mental is becoming more spiritual than I thought!

During this book read, I will try to post some of the things that have caused me to have a pause and think in hopes that it will encourage one of you along the way!

Keep on keeping on!
