Week 2–Day 2

Week 2–Day 2

On to day 2 and so far the book hasn’t told me how to lose weight   Only how to get ‘balance’ in my life.  I suppose that can apply to food also.  Balancing the foods you eat and how much you eat.  This lesson encourages us to encourage others by calling them, sending an email, etc.  Also that we can depend on God for help in balancing our...
