Heavenly Treat

Just got home from NOT eating ice cream! Every Wednesday after church and youth group I take the kids and a few friends to the local ice cream shop. They know me so well in this shop that I don't even have to order. It's like Norm on Cheers, when I come in they just slide my two scoops of chocolate peanutbutter revel down the counter and shout "CONNIE" So imagine the shock on the young clerk's face when I tell him no thank you to the ice cream he is just about to scoop out for me. He almost looked disappointed... but after looking up what I thought the points for this heavenly treat would be I decided that I would find heaven in another way... and I think I did just that because this feeling I have right now knowing I resisted my most favorite treat and have no regrets is rather heavenly! I am not saying I am never going to have chocolate peanutbutter revel ever again...the thought of that right now would break my heart but I am going to save it for something very special and plan for it and journal it... mmmm I do so love chocolate peanut butter revel ice cream!!! but I DIDN'T HAVE ANY TONIGHT! Woo Hooo!!


ok thanks for letting me share! hope everyone else is finding success... A fellow WW friend shared this scripture with me and I love it so much I would like to pass it along to you...

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.Romans 12:2 NASB
