Worrying Works!

By
I lost 3 pounds this week.  It is no mistake either; I kept checking...  The only thing I can assume is that all of the worrying that I did this week has helped me to lose the weight. 

 Hurricane Sandy devastated my friends and family in New Jersey this week, and I have been a wreck worrying about them the entire time.  My friends and family members were without heat, water, electricity, and gasoline this entire week.  There were some amazing stories of neighborly support that surfaced from the storm, and there were also countless tragedies that will influence these people for the rest of their lives.  New Jersey is much more than teenagers drinking and over-using tanning beds.  They are just like you and me, and they need our help!

 In an effort to show them some support, I have set up a fundraiser for Mercury One Disaster Relief.  Mercury One is a faith-based organization that gives 100% of the money earned to the victims of a disaster, in this case those impacted by Hurricane Sandy.  If you have a moment, please check it out.

 While I don't suggest you find things to worry about in order to lose weight, I have to say this actually worked for me.

 What other surprising things have helped you to lose weight?

I have a two year old, who is perfect in every way, except one...he has an awful digestion system.  It seems like this has been going on for him since the moment he was born, poor guy.  I managed the first year and a half of life by nursing him.  He never had any trouble digesting my milk.  (And some days, I wish I could get my milk flowing again.)  After 18 months, his belly has been nothing but a problem for us all.  When the toddler is upset, even the neighbors can hear it...he screams bloody murder! So, for the past year, I have tried everything I could think of trying to get his system moving properly.   His doctor's orders, at first, were to add fiber and water to his diet.  Upon leaving the doctor's office, I felt confident.  ...
