Okay friends :) I am just going to put this out here.
The program that I am working with, Weight Watchers, is doing a Lose for Good drive now-October 15th. For every pound that their members lose they donate a dollar to food banks. They are encouraging their members to also donate nonperishable items to their local food banks for every pound they lose as well.
Well, this gave me the idea to not just donate to the food bank during this month of weight loss but for every pound that I will lose in the future as well. I have a total of 127pds left to lose and this is a great motivation for me to keep on keeping on in this journey. I would like to invite each of you to follow me on this journey for every pound that I lose would you consider donating a non-perishable food item to your local food bank.
Somethings to consider how simple and cost efficient this really is. I am encouraged to lose only 1-2pds per week which adds up to 5-10 non perishable items a month. If only 6 of my friends committed to donate along with me in about a year and 1/2s time we could donate over 726 non perishable food items to our/your local food bank. How awesome would that be!!! From the very beginning of this journey I have longed to bring glory to God for his work in my heart and life.
I will post weekly results on this blog. I will also be keeping track of how much food is being donated and when I reach my weight goal will share those results as well.
Thanks so much for considering walking with me on this journey!
