So inspiring! I love your response to your sister-in-law, “just trying my darndest to be a good Disciple of Christ.”

This beautiful sister exudes goodness in the "before" pictures as well as the "after". It's sad, even tragic, that she felt she was "polluted" and unfit for the Spirit when she was heavy. As many of us know who carry this particular "thorn in the flesh", keeping weight off is much more difficult than losing it. I hope that if she gains weight or doesn't follow her eating plan with perfection, she knows she is still beloved and precious. Although caring for our mortal tabernacles is good, I believe it is an earthly doctrine that encourages us to feel unworthy unless we meet a certain standard. Surely there are many, many worse acts than eating cheeseburgers.
