Guest guest Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Hello, I'm , mommy to Luke (5) and Quincy (3), and wife to Lance. We live in Corpus Christi. We recently had Quincy evaluated for a speech delay and were told that he is most likely high functioning Autistic. It didn't come as much of a suprise, it has crossed my mind before. It's been a week and a half now and I'm done with the tears and ready to gather information and see what we can do to help our wonderful, beautiful little boy live the best life he possibly can (and his big brother too, of course!). He has his PEP3 on December 6th and will start preschool at our home school soon. I just wanted to say hello and wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Happy Thanksgiving ! You are blessed and highly favored, expect much from your Father in Heaven. Keep the praise on your lips and be amazed at His mercy. He will take care of everything if you seek Him first. Matt 6:33. Your best days are ahead of you, anything telling you different IS OF THE WORLD, and it is better to Trust God than to put confidence in man ALWAYS. (Psalms 118:8) The world was spoken into existence, you have no idea (neither do I really) the power of the spoken word, choose your words carefully, LIFE AND DEATH are in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21) so KNOW that when you speak the TRUE WORD OF GOD over yourself and your loved ones (OVER AND OVER) you will begin to believe it and it will be made manifest. For example, speaking “My son (or daughter) has the mind of Christ.” There are 1000’s you can use, but just use any of them DAILY. Pray for wisdom and expect nothing less than 100% perfection for your children. Now don’t misunderstand me, I don’t mean DO NOT TOLERATE your children if they are less than perfect in your sight, I mean expect that they have A PERFECT FRAMEWORK AND CHANCE IN LIFE just like God intended for them. You have already gotten your degree in unconditional love by now, that is not the matter for debate it s about what HOPE you will demand for your kids as well as yourself. HIGH HOPES CALL FOR HIGH HELP, BIG VISION brings BIG PROVISION. May God bless you and everyone here, richly and abundantly!!

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Do you have any role models that disprove this idea? if not, it may be time to find some! I have a couple of friends who are fit / thin and they do more stuff (which they'd do no matter their size or age, they were just born with that gene to go & do & adventure!) than I will ever do (or truly, don't want to do ...) but some of the gals at the gym I go do are a ton of fun to be around (great sense of humor, have great families & do fun things like mud runs and volunteer places) and I look to them in many ways (from how they dress to how they work out) and I like Eldred's train of thought! There are probably a number of things that you either can't do or don't do because of your size or fitness level, that you'd like to do if you did lose weight or become more fit (go on a zip line adventure, maybe do a marathon or wearing a special sexy dress or swimsuit that makes you feel good, take up ballroom dancing, etc.)? ________________________________ To: insideoutweightloss Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2011 1:10 PM Subject: Re: My introduction  > As I was listening to some of the first podcasts (I think #4 or #5)I came to realize that once of the thoughts that is holding me back is that if I am fit and slim, then life won't be fun anymore.

Meaning, you'd have more energy, able to do fun physical things, play with your kids(if that applies). Seems like that would give you a sense of peace as well.

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Thanks for the reply Edlred. Im sorry for late response but this is literally the first time Ive been able to visit this group since then. I think you are onto something with your suggestion. My partner is very sport-minded luckily so when we are together, we are usually active in some way and I am finding that I am slowly beginning to enjoy it and ~gasp~ prefer it! And now that she and I have moved in together I am hoping that being active turns into a daily habit! Although I have not lost any weight since listening to the podcast (about a month) I do generally feel better about myself and my body. Add this to a more active life, and my intention is finally let go of the weight that holds me back. Thanks again Eldred! > > As I was listening to some of the first podcasts (I think #4 or #5)I came to realize that once of the thoughts that is holding me back is that if I am fit and slim, then life won't be fun anymore.
