I cleaned out my close over the weekend. I confessed to the Thin Within Yahoo Group that I had a fear of getting rid of my larger sized clothing. Well, it was cathartic to admit that. God used it to kick me in the bum to at least put all the clothes in garbage bags. I haven’t carted them off yet, but I plan to have the courage to do so.
The fun thing about cleaning out the closet was I found some things…some smaller sized pants that now fit…YAY!
I also found my largest short that I was busting out of…they were split..I think I will keep them for a before and after picture or something. I mean it really was a huge comparison. It doesn’t reflect where I began *this* time (I hadn’t gained back all the weight I had lost)…but it *does* reflect where I was when we first moved up here in October of 2002. It works well enough to give me a visual. Maybe I will glue them to my closet wall (it is a walk in closet) so that if I ever lose sight of faithfully continuing to obey the Lord with my eating, I can be reminded…”Do I want to return to that prison!???”
All for now. My keyboard is giving me fits.
