Small or Large it Doesn't Matter

 I am starting my fourth week of Weight Watchers, NOT a diet, but a lifestyle change/commitment to eat healthier and less.... which can be extra tough on a type one diabetic, but I've hung in there and done pretty well, even if I have already not been diligently tracking how many points I've used, so have not been all in, but have lost 7lbs!!

In the wee hours of the morning the other day my blood-sugar went low, so I used that as an excuse to "cheat" denying my new healthy eating style, NOT diet, as well as my diabetes by treating with not just juice, BUT those ALL TOO Tempting leftover Easter jelly beans and Peeps, after some quick debating, I did it, I indulged, and it wasn't even that good of treats, but it was available, and that is all that was needed, was that one "quick fix" for the lack of taste of something sugary.....and I had to end up doing a shot for it anyway as it was an un-needed overcompensation

As I thought about this, and immediately cringed with some guilt, and it dawned on me that this is NO DIFFERENT than a marital, love, or emotional affair,  just on a way smaller scale, but it was still breaking a commitment I had made to myself none the less  to keep to healthy eating and accounting for my points, and I broke that, and had to own up and account for every one of my choices and actions

 Even though it can be a disappointment or let down, No one has a reason, right, or room to judge someone else who has had an affair, NOT that it is right, but as humans we ALL face temptations and everyone 'cheats', fibs, or breaks commitments in some realm, as I discovered, or often denis there daily walk/relationship with God   ~~ A sin is a sin, a lie is a lie, cheating is cheating period, WE ALL FALL SHORT OF THE GLORY of GOD WE ARE ALL SINNERS, BUT THE BEST PART IS IS THAT WE ARE FORGIVEN AND START ANEW EVERY SINGLE DAY, we can always turn bad choices around as they say in the special education room, the kids can pull  themselves back together and recover from a meltdown/tantrum or start making better wiser choices and so can you!!!
