MARCH
2003 It is now the day after I wrote the above paragraph and my computer is still having problems. I won't bore you with details and I still don't understand how to fix "this problem" but I am having words printing out onto my MSWord program that are not coming from my fingertips and keyboard!! I have called tech support and they couldn't give me a reason and gave me another phone number to call to see if help was available. If you are wondering what this has to do with losing weight, I have come up with a similarity! :-) Often times, we do things and expect to produce certain results......but alas, the results aren't happening. We read the instructions or try to get help from every available "tech support" we can find that should have the answer, and still the answer seems just out of our reach. That is happening with my computer and that is happening with my weight loss. I have probably lost 20 lbs this month but also gained 20 lbs. It is like a see-saw of up a lb/down a lb.....up a lb/down a lb.......you get the idea. I am not seeing the results I hoped for. I have searched a variety of "tech supports". I have paused to rest and reflect, analyze and try something different. So far my computer is still messed up and my weight loss is keeping it company. BUT, the
good news is this: I have not given up on my computer and not content
to live with the problem. I am going to call the new phone number first
thing tomorrow morning and try again to make it work. I am also going
to do that with my weight. I am not giving up and will continue to do
whatever it takes to find the answer to my personal issue with food,
weight, exercise and all those "fun" words that go with this.
I am not freaking out, I am not stressing over it, I am not giving up.
I have had many times of very successful weight loss and it would be
easy to think that whatever worked last time should work this time.
But this is a new problem in that I am in a different place and time
in my life, with new situations, new environments, different stresses
and new choices. I hope by next month my article will be filled with
wonderful reports of a perfectly working computer and a perfectly working
weight loss plan. Don't hold your breath but live in expectation that
at any moment "the" breakthrough will appear. "The
joy of the Lord is my strength!" |
