Man may look at the outward appearance, but God looks at our hearts. Now let's all go out and get some cheescake! (or how about we split a piece).<BR/><BR/>Thank God he is focused on where it counts. Of course it still matters how we take care of our bodies, but I mean, can it get much better than to be a daughter of the King? Remember what a treasure you are Melissa. Thank you for opening up this discussion.<BR/><BR/>I love you,<BR/>AlexaAlexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00960079099180894407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5380415744735474779.post-83268934382127667812008-01-31T07:48:00.000-05:002008-01-31T07:48:00.000-05:00Melissa!Oh Girl I am 5'7" and 224 pounds.

I know that there are some ladies who see me and would be tickled to be at my weight. If you notice I didn't say I would be happy if. . . Because I am happy now! I love my life, I love that I am healthy, and I love my Lord. My body, well let's just say I am working daily on that love. But I am happy that I can see, I can walk, I can breathe, and I can praise him!!! I played the "I Suck" game better than anyone but I REFUSE to play anymore! Our pastor asked us to give up something about easter of last year and I gave up the "I Suck" game.<BR/>I thank you for being honest and vulnerable for all of us because from a "fat girl's" perspective we would think you have it all. Oh to be 150 pounds would be a dream although according to the government that is my ideal weight!<BR/>We all have to keep the pirates away from us and CHOOSE not to believe the lies!<BR/>Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world!!!<BR/>NO MATTER WHAT WE ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL!!!! Because we are daughters of the KING!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5380415744735474779.post-84055190426005050162008-01-31T06:51:00.000-05:002008-01-31T06:51:00.000-05:00Well, If ya want my opinion and input ...

Anyway, it's true, and I think we should all say it loudly to each other--often!! <BR/><BR/>You know that weight is one of my struggles, too. I keep wondering if this time will be the time it stays off. I'm not making anybody any promises! <BR/><BR/>All I know is that I had a boyfriend in college that kept me very skinny---and miserable. I always tell Barry that I'm so fluffy because he makes me so happy!<BR/><BR/>AmyAmy Carrollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12929276204896197919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5380415744735474779.post-66272346967761718262008-01-30T19:08:00.000-05:002008-01-30T19:08:00.000-05:00Sweet Melissa,It wouldn't matter if you have ten M...Sweet Melissa,<BR/>It wouldn't matter if you have ten Mt.
