Doppelgänger...Day Three

So it's day three and my doppelgänger, let's call her Meronica shows up. I call her this because this person cannot truly be me.

Last night we had friends over and in anticipation of having Little Cesar pizza, I made sure that my food choices were focused and directed during the day. I really felt great. Lots of energy and no crazy cravings.
So the evening comes and the pizza is there. I have two slices, feeling very good about my choices, by passing the potato chips and enjoying my caffeine free, diet Sam's choice soda....which is the best diet soda EVER.

We have a great time with our friends and then they leave.

Then Meronica comes.
Without even thinking, I eat another slice, enjoy a bowl of ice cream and head to bed. This food entered my mouth without me even thinking about it. I didn't even pray over it. Meronica shows up and takes over.

Exit yesterday, enter this morning...

I have a headache, I am sluggish, I have a headache, I am grumpy and I keep thinking about yummy yuck foods for my poor body. The combat has begun. And did I suit up this morning? Of course....NOT! Yikes, could I set myself anymore for failure. I am running on fumes because I am missing the bread of life.

So it is time to restart the day. Thank goodness God's mercies are new everyday and every moment if I need it. There is no condemnation is Christ Jesus. The old is gone....pizza, and the new has come....salad.
