For My Daughter

For My Daughter that I love more then anything!!
An excerpt from the book "Preparing Your Daughter for Every Woman's Battle"

If you have a daughter, please consider sharing this with her:

The Promise
"You, my dear, are a princess
and a stunningly beautiful creation of the King of the universe;
and He is absolutely, positively head over heels in love with you.
You have been richly adorned with spiritual beauty,
and your role in life is to radiate God's magnificent glory to others.
Your mission is to live such a pure lifestyle
that your friends can't help but be influenced by you in a really good way.
As they try to imitate you, they will begin pursuing God
and a lifestyle of sexual purity as well.
Together, you girls are going to have such fun as you celebrate God's goodness in your lives and grow in His grace."

based on Psalm 45:11, 13-15


The Pledge
A princess always respects parental authority.
A princess behaves the same in her parents' absence
as she does in their presence.
A princess pursues friendships only with those both she
and her parents feel good about.
A princess doesn't abuse her telephone privileges.
A princess surfs only parent-approved Internet Web sites.
A princess wears only clothes that look appropriate on her.
A princess gets her parents' permission before inviting
someone into her home or getting into a car with someone.
A princess doesn't pursue a boyfriend or until her parents determine
that she is ready to do so.

Media teaches her that promiscuity is normal. Friends pressure her to be like everyone else. Magazines create a false sense of body image and companies vie for her attention to be placed on outward beauty. Marketing demands she dress her body like a woman, rather than a girl. The Internet offers deviation and defilement at every turn and her value system isn't supported in our godless country.

Sometimes it feels like I'm battling against Hell itself to protect my girl.

Maybe because I am.

Fight hard for your daughter's purity because the enemy is at war for it. Teach her early about her body and sex. Set the bar high, so that everything she hears from her friends and media will be compared to God's standard of holiness.

Getting There

Well things are going good on my diet! I've lost about 12lbs, about 10 to go.
Hey if I can go to a food fest, Fiesta night and stick to it, well any one can.

I found this explanation of on losing weight. It is a quote from the developer of the HCG protocol

"You lose fat from the body cells but the cells do not disappear at the same time. The cell structure is still present for two to three days while the body breaks down the cellulose and fills the cell with water in order to release it (through urine). Once the fat cell is removed, the scale will drop."

Here is a great website with some great info.

How much protein should you be getting in a day?

Your weight divided by 14 = ounces of protein intake daily.

So for example myself, 10.3 ozs a day. I can do that. Because I don't want to go back to what I was!

Diet!!??!!

Well I started my diet on Saturday April 3rd. And as of today the 8th I'm down 4lbs. Yea me!! A facebook friend mentioned this diet several months ago and I was skeptical. How can you lose an average of a pound a day. So I researched it. I love it!! The advantage is that you can see the weight lose. I think people get discouraged because the lose is so slow. It makes it easier to stick to what you have to do when you see progress. And especially when you have more energy then before!
So go check it out here and get started.
Oh I forgot one reason I felt this was for real is that I have 3 friends I know personally that are doing it with pronominal results. That is what sold me!!
