I posted a new article on my autism blog if you'd like to see it.

On an entirely different topic, I want to share something that I am very proud to have accomplished this year so far!
Are you ready?  Drumoll please. . .

I have stopped drinking diet Pepsi and am drinking water all day now!!  TA DA!!

I never, ever thought I would accomplish this!  It is truly a God thing.  He really has helped me a LOT.

Not that I don't miss it.  I have had a diet Pepsi once or twice when I've gone out shopping or out to dinner.  But listen, I used to drink at least 4 - 6 cans of that stuff a DAY.  Looking back on that just two short months ago, I am amazed!

Now, as far as the other stuff  -- I am a bit discouraged in the weight loss department.  I have cut my calories down but I'm not seeing results.  I'm keeping track of everything I put in my mouth.  I am wondering if low carb is something I need to go back to.  Still, I'm not eating any flour and staying away from sweets.  I did have a few pieces of gum drop candy at Valentine's day.  But I am really discouraged that the weight isn't coming off.  I am not going by my weight but by my clothing size.

I am exercising every day, too!  Isn't God too GOOD?

I could use your prayers, though.  My heels in my feet are really hurting me.

Anyway, just wanted to share the great and mighty things the Lord is doing!  :-)
