Just a quick message to let everybody know about an experiment I am trying for a while. Last night I disconnected the television and the DVD player and I put it away in a closet. I boxed up all of the DVD's and the remotes. I have not been watching for a few days so I figure that now is as good a time as any to see if I can truly live without it. I admit that I had slight withdrawls for about 30 minutes but then 'out of sight, out of mind' kicked in. I realize there's the awful temptation of watching DVD's on my laptop but I figure if God can give me the strength to lose weight then He can surely give me the willpower to do without television. Keep me in prayer!
