Little Miss Independent

Sigh. I'm in trouble. I've said many times in life and on this blog, that my weight and food issues are more spiritual than physical. And physically, I've been doing pretty well, but spiritually, I'm seriously slipping.
I've been working out almost daily. That's not by itself a bad thing, but the obsession has begun.  I broke away from my old work out routine hoping to loosen things up, but out hasn't been working.
I've been doing Just Dance 3, then I added in Wii Fit again, I find myself getting obsessive with numbers, it's not healthy for me.  The body priority is slowly climbing above the spirit again, and I just can't go there.
If I'm going to get healthy and lose weight, it's going to have to be Holy Spirit dependent, and I've been moving fast toward doing it all on my own.
My shoulders are really achy from all the working out. I took the issue as a reason for a day off, mostly to hinder the obsession.
I was hoping to do some housework and take a walk with the Lord, but a crash of our home computer sent me another direction. Even my walks lately that I intended to spend praying have reverted to mindless, distracted and purposeless exercise. Yes, purposeless, because if I'm not able to put the Lord first and focus on Him, even a stellar size 8 won't be a good thing.
I'm hoping to maybe take a low key, late night stroll still, more for the conversation than for the exercise though  because I am far more concerned with my spiritual heart than my physical one.
