Dieting?
I have tried many diets. I have lost weight on all of them however I have also regained the weight. The newest “diet” I am trying is “The Full Plate Diet”. My husband and I began a week ago. The plan is to add fiber to your current diet so you do not feel hungry as often, do not eat when you are not hungry, and drink lots of water. This is an eight week program at FHMMC and the only cost involved is for the books. You can check it out at http://www.fullplatediet.org/
Reflections
When sitting quietly, reflect upon our own faults. When speaking with friends do not discuss the rights and wrongs of others. – The Lotus Pond
We are sometimes so quick to judge the actions of others. It is important to remember as humans none of us are perfect. It is wise to think of all of the things that maybe contributing to the action of another before making a comment. Is there a ailing loved one? did some one lose their job? are they losing their home? Remember we all have feelings, emotions, that is what makes us unique and human. Never forget the Golden Rule – to do unto others as you would have others do unto you. That includes gossiping. Enjoy the “Human Experience”.
