I will never be perfect or good enough. Since perfection was out of my reach, I decided to “give up” in the past. I tried ever diet or meal plan offering quick results. After a few days of “depriving” myself, I had enough and ate everything I could. Over time, I started using excess food to cover my feelings of never being enough.

Psalm 139:17 is, “How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered!”

Holy Bible, New Living Translation

God takes me as I am. He created my imperfections so I would seek Him. My efforts will be never be enough. Instead of giving up, Jesus guides me to do the impossible. With His help, I have the strength to eat healthy. He guides me to maintain my weight by eating food my body needs.
