Hi all, I aplogize for taking a repreive from this forum but I havn't been a good girl lately. I supose the stress took its toll on me and I succumed to many temptations. Started with dabbling with green tea w/ aspartane (Lipton), then some periodic coffee, the sugar and it all escalated and finally I totally blew it and even began drinking some (mostly wine) . And Oh my gosh! Am I a dummy or what? Man, it sooooo polutes my body and mind but then my flesh just wants more even though I know its destructive! My flesh is stupid!!! Then I keep telling myself, don't even try stopping until Xmas is over, you cant do it. Well now Im feeling so poorly about myself its effecting everything including my husband. Gained 12 lbs in 6 weeks. Sugar is POISON!!!! Candida has taken over and it looks like Im pregnant cuz of the bloating.

I read some recent posts and was delighted to read that Linda Lou suggested we pray for eachother! Awsome idea! Maybe we should just put our name on a list if we decide we want to be prayed for and pray for the others on the lists! Prayer is incredibly powerful especially when coupled with fasting which I feel I am being led to do very soon. Anyway glad to see that you all are Ok and still supporting eachother! We need eachother!!! Blessings to all, Diane
