Day 4, 4apples, 10 girls

Just as an FYI to my last post... I made it over the sugar hurdle. I did give in an have a smoke (or two) and about a pot of coffee. I know what you are thinking, "Leah, smoking and caffeine are not good for you." Really people, that is the least of my worries right now! I did not get here by smoking on occasion and Starbucks! Everywhere in the office I look, there are candy jars. Let me let you in on another secret. SHHHHHH, Christians are caffeine and carb-aholics. This is the socially acceptable drug of our time. I think that is the way the the devil is infiltrating the church... through peanut butter cups and coffee. That sneaky bastard.

Moving on...

Tonight is the night that I have 10 girls over to my house for a study. We were celebrating the finish of our series. They were snacking and talking, watching a movie, being girls. All I could think about was, "it is going to be so late and cold to walk when they leave. That's OK, I don't have to walk, I did oldies this morning." After just 4 days, I was talking myself out of my 20 minute a night commitment. Then, thank God, the little angel on the other shoulder said, "Leah, they are watching a movie...GO WALK." And so I did. In my jammies (it was a jammie party) with the dogs and tonight's friend, Becky. I wanted to stop at 2 fruit loops but Becky talked me out of that too. I am so weak-sauce.

I made a wonderful vegetable soup. I always heard that it is expensive to eat healthy. I made this great soup for $5.00 total. Cabbage, carrots, green beans, garlic, chicken broth, and lots of goodness. I think I can live off of this soup for a week...it is soooo good. A cup really fills you up. Soup is such a nice winter comfort food. I brought some into work today to share. I have a few other people who are jumping on the "Let's Get Healthy Express". Punks, now I can't quit. I can't let the people I am inspiring do better than me. The teacher never let's the students pass then during the school year. No way my friends... you are never going to beat me.

Dear Lord, if you won't make me thin... please make my friends fat. Just kidding, no I'm not... yes I am... no really.. kidding... not...you'll never know...heeee hee heee
