Lynette - Week 3

I'm down 2 pounds this week. I'm returning to work tomorrow, so I'm hoping that makes me a little more active and a lot more productive in dropping some pounds. But I learned from the article Cherish sent that it's okay that I've only worked on changing my diet so far. It's best to break habits one at a time. So, thank you, Cherish.

Also, in Relief Society today I figured out my body mass index (bmi), and guess what? I'm obese. I already knew that. But it still wasn't very fun. And then I decided to remind myself that I'm ten pounds less obese than I was three weeks ago. See, I'm really trying to look on the bright side.

Wish me luck tomorrow. I've been off work longer than I had planned. I'm sure all my passwords have expired -- even if I could remember what they were. And I wonder if I remember how to do anything. I hope all the patients behave themselves while I get my feet underneath me again!

Good luck this week!

  2. It wasn't the lesson. That would be funny. They gave handouts from Enrichment Night, and since I wasn't at Enrichment, I took one of the handouts and worked on it on my own. What was I thinking?!

  3. Mom, you are awesome! Look at you, shedding the pounds. And I think you've got the right outlook. Losing ten pounds in a month is better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.
