Well...Life has been sooo busy these last couple of weeks that..conference really slowed me down...I must say..I did open the door to the boy scouts!! and I did by a candy bar!! I mean..come on...I was a girl scout and so there for I always buy!! it's the "scout curse" I think?...Anyways..the candy bar was good!...sadly I ate it...But...lately I just really haven't been focusing on my weight....Like I haven't been "over eating" some times i even forget!! i just have been so busy I just...don't have time to count points calories or whatev...I find myself racing around the house cleaning cleaning cleaning...it NEVER stops...I just get soo burned out....after sick kids..house work. parents on there way...auto issues...+ more...I just needed to chill an watch conference I did a lot of thinking while watching...and I think I have figured out my NEW plan of action. The reason why I look at my weight and such an try to watch how an when I eat is not for the cute tops or tighter jeans! It's basically for me to feel better about myself. But..I learned that...my weight is not really my issue. It's a plus to be healthy but...it's not what's BUGGIN me...it's my testimony that needs to eat!..I need to be more involved in my scriptures..I need to FEAST on WORDS...I think that is my problem...I can really care less if I'm a 6 or 24 waist! Yes weight makes a big difference on energy an yada yada yee...but...I love to dress up...I love to do my hair an make up and get my toes done an etc. so... and i feel good about the way I look when i do it.(I have NEVER been a stick)...whats lacking for me is my spirit eating...I can honestly say...I do feel beautiful...my husband is very good at telling me...(that's a plus) he makes sure I go an get my toes/nails done with out an argument! He knows that when I'm out changing my hair style and getting a new top or shoes...is making me feel "sexy" ...I have all the support in a husband that makes me hit all the pointers in feeling beautiful. It's the the inside I need to work on...soo..that's my new goal...I'm gunna over load myself with the Gospel!!!..I'm not turnin bible crazy on everyone but...I think my spirit, attitude, patience, and love will show more...and that's more important that anything.

I think that's great!
My goal to get up early and go to bed early is really more about finding a good time to study the scriptures. I feel like if I can start my day off on a spiritual note, maybe I will be a nicer Mom to my kids, and a better wife to my husband, and maybe I will have a better attitude.
All the physical health in the world won't matter much if you aren't mentally and spiritually healthy, so I say go for it! Feast away!
I know this will sound funny, but when life was really crazy some time ago I found the best time to read my scriptures was just a little bit throughout the day in the bathroom. Typically I don't understand how anyone has time to read anything in the bathroom because I'm just an in and out girl. But I just sat there for an extra few minutes to read and it really worked. Who would have thought.
