Reaching goals

So my first goal for this journey was to get below a certain weight which I had sworn I never wanted to be at again and of course I had once again reached and passed. I met that goal five days in and so I have set a second goal. After a weekend away and a few questionable choices, I am only 2 pounds away from meeting that goal. It is a banner day when I can high five myself and say look what I've done. But I am certain that without the prayers I requested early on and the hand of God on my shoulders, I would reach no goal alone. I've done that in the past; set a goal, reached a goal, taken complete credit for my control; I won't make that mistake again. ANd so my ultimate goal is to keep God in the midst of this whole thing. To remind myself that I am helpless without His love and guidance. I can't even say without His help, because really when does God ever HELP us? He allows us to play in His sandbox and even allows us to be prideful. That is another poison for me and I need to remember it every day. Pride does nothing for me, humble is the way to go. And so I set another goal today and I ask God to allow me to do what I need to do in order to reach that goal. I'll let you know when it happens.
