I have been thinking about my weight problem for a long time. Honestly, it is my obsession in life, and so far my goals have remained unobtainable and illusive to me. So, I have wondered why and the answer is twofold. First, I think that I have not given myself permission to lose weight. I keep thinking that nothing will really work and as I have heard many times in Kyani meetings “if you think you can or you think you can’t you are right.” I have told myself I can’t lose weight and so far, I am right. Second, I have adopted this wacky incorrect philosophy that I can’t lose weight without a organized program. Now, when was the last time that was true. What? I can’t lose weight without somebody telling me how to do it? What a sad commentary on life that I am now believing everything that the outside world tells us about weightloss. So, I have decided that I need to start believing in myself. Weight Watchers, Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig, Slim Fast, etc. have not been here forever. And I am pretty sure people have been able to lose weight long before any of these programs have been around. It just takes perseverance, belief in myself, and a little self control. I need to cut back on my caloric intake and start exercising again. This is it. Tomorrow is the day. I am going to bet on myself and win.
Last week was a really tough week for our Bishop and family. First, my husband went out of town on business and it happened to overlap with our daughter and her babies visiting us. So, three days that she was here, he didn't get to see her. Then, he flew back into town Wed. around town and then we drove our daughter to the airport Thursday morning at 4:30. Yes, that is early, and yes, we did go back to bed when we got home. ;o) Then he worked all day Thursday and I will spare you the details but it was a bad day. His non-boss boss was in a foul mood and he got the brunt of it. Thursday evening he had the yearly ward audit and didn't get home until close to 10. Friday was another fun filled day at work, and then Friday evening and Saturday were filled with youth conference which he attended and was a chaperone for during the entire event. Sunday was a rough "bishop" day that he couldn't talk about, and quite frankly, I didn't want to hear about. That leads us...
