WE DID IT


We started our "Losing it--if not the weight, then our minds" blog. No one will want to read it because it will be boring, but it's to help keep us accountable.

Tonight I got that strange pain in my armpit again. I was scared out of my mind for and thought, I didn't change my diet quick enough and I'm going to die--again! Not that I actually died the first time but I thought I was going to. But the pain went away after about five minutes so maybe, just maybe I'm not too late.

Pam will be there, daily, hourly, if I need her--she's that kind of a girl--to encourage me, to keep me on track. It's good to have a cohort in this business of changing my life for the better.

I met Pam when I was assigned to be her visiting teacher. I went alone the first month because my partner was a young mother and couldn't get away. I was glad because I got to meet Pam alone and we both knew we would be friends. (For those who are Mormon you are probably wondering why I didn't already know Pam, if I was in her ward. That is because 24 years earlier they had split our ward and then, wonder of wonder, they put us back together. Anyway, Pam wasn't in the original ward, she had moved in just a few years earlier so I didn't know her from before. Is this confusing enough?)

So, blog number four. Not that "
Walking in Starlight" ever gets written on and not that the Cookbook gets written on much.

So, what things are new with you?

THE BONY-BUM SYNDROME

I've been home with the "puny's." A lot of sitting. A lot of TV. A lot of boredom and feeling sorry for myself. A lot of imagining the worst. And one of the worst that isn't imagined? My bottom is becoming bony.

If I loose five pounds the bottom looses the first ten ounces. If I gain five pounds the bottom gains nothing. I could gain a thousand pounds and end up looking like an elephant. Have you ever seen an elephant's bottom. It's bony.

It's a bum situation.
