Re: I Am Worth It Challenge II
The pina colada cake is not Atkins friendly. The carb count is probably astronomical. I make that for my skinny family. When I say I'm from a huge family, I mean head count, not body size. I am the youngest of 10 living kids and the only one not too skinny. They all eat like pigs and just get skinnier!Originally posted by Suga_Britchess

Re: I Am Worth It Challenge II
You know, if we weren't all born at home, I'd think I was switched at birth. The most dominant conversation tonight was how much extra everyone is eating and how much more weight they have lost. One brother eats a 6-pound can of Peter Pan peanut butter per WEEK and he said he is back down to 178 pounds. He puts peanut butter on everything he eats. He's 6'2" tall. I was skinny like that until my middle 30's. Makes me want to cry.Originally posted by SunnySmile501The pina colada cake is not Atkins friendly. The carb count is probably astronomical.

You see the pictures of my daughter: she got so tired of eating sometimes, she had to eat so much to stay near 100 pounds. Life is not fair!

Re: I Am Worth It Challenge II
Hey everyone...is it too late to sign up? I would like to commit to this challenge. Jimmie and Silly are pressuring me in my journal. lol No really, I am worth it! and it will be great to spend a few days reflecting on ME!
As for my screen name... inhisgrip means In God's Grip. I can always count on Him. Even I run, stumble, fall, or turn away from Him, He is always holding on to me. He'll never let me go. Sometimes I'm embracing Him and living for Him as I should and other times I'm running so far from Him He has to hold on for dear life...but I know He'll never lose His grip on me.Comment

Re: I Am Worth It Challenge II
I've always known what your screen name meant. My faith is what I credit for making it this far. I read three scriptures every day that help me stay dedicated by remembering that my body belongs to God and I have been abusing it with the food choices I have made. I hope no one minds if I post them here:Originally posted by inhisgrip
Romans 12: 1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.
1 Corinthians 3:16 Don't you know that you are God's sanctuary and that the Spirit of God lives in you?
1 Corinthians 6:19 Do you not know that your body is a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,People who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it.

Re: I Am Worth It Challenge II
Welcome Liz, I love your screen name! It is all about Him.
Sunny, I like the scriptures you posted and your boldness to do so. That one in Romans is one of my favorites. By the way, your daughter was beautiful. I suppose she is living with the king!Comment

Re: I Am Worth It Challenge II
Thanks! Yes, Paula is now living with the King. One of my favorite memories is of her from a small child, going around on Christmas Day saying, "It's Somebody's birthday!"--meaning Jesus. We baked Him a cake and sang happy birthday. She kept up the tradition with her son. Boy, I miss her!Originally posted by decreaseself

Re: I Am Worth It Challenge II
sunny....
okay, are you all ready to get down to the COMMITMENT of this challenge? i promised your assigment on sunday night and here it is. completing it any time during monday is perfect. if you have questions, ask away and i'll try to answer in a timely manner. on question one, the Challengers Commitment is found in the very first post of this thread.
December 17
I’m Committed! Oh, Really?
Homework/Board Work
1. Copy/paste the Challengers Commitment into your Journal either in Journal Chats or Journal Stats or write it into your personal journal.
2. Copy and paste the following questions in this thread and then answer. You may also place this in your journal but it is not a requirement.
· Why are you here at the ADBB?
· Why are you doing Atkins?
· What does the word “commitment” mean to you?
3. Find a quote concerning commitment and share it in this thread.
4. Comment on the following quote:
“Commitment is what transforms the promise into reality. It is the words that speak boldly of your intentions and the actions which speak louder than
words. It is making the time when there is none. It means coming through time after time, year after year. Commitment is the stuff character is made of; the power to change the face of things. It is the daily triumph of integrity over skepticism”
5. Make a list of synonyms for the word “commitment“. Put this list in your journal.

Re: I Am Worth It Challenge II
The Birthday story is cute. We had a birthday party for Jesus with the 1st and 2nd graders at church today. They wore birthday hats, played pin the tail on the donkey, and ate cupcakes (well they did since they were not atkins friendly cupcakes). They had a good time. It took the focus off Santa!Comment

Re: I Am Worth It Challenge II
Jimmie, I have a personal journal at home. Is this going to require me making a journal here? The last question leads me to believe so.
It's not a problem if so, I just haven't looked how to do it yetComment
