This week, Nutrisystem has helped me keep a piece of sanity. My crazy busy schedule has continued. However, this week I was able to increase my workouts and water. I went for a long walk or jog each day. My exercise time this week helped me release some stress and collect my thoughts. I need to remember this and really make it a priority the next time I feel overwhelmed.

Update- This week’s measurements show a loss of 0 in my arms, .5 in my chest, 1 in my waist, 0 in my hips and 0 in my thighs; a weekly loss of 1.5 and an overall loss of 44.5 inches. I love seeing my hard work pay off in a number change! Even though I lost inches, my weight stayed the same. I wish I knew why my body is hanging on to those pounds. Hopefully soon, it will let them go! I continue to believe in the Nutrisystem program and know that it’s is simply a matter of time until my body is ready for a change. I will continue working and be patient.

Hello, my name is Laurie. My family and I live near the Oregon coast. When we aren’t at work, in school, or on the volleyball court, we enjoy traveling, cheering for our favorite sports teams, playing outdoors, and checking off items on our bucket list. We are lucky in that both sets of our parents, as well as our siblings and their families, live within an hour of us. We get together often to help one another out, celebrate milestones, and go on adventures together.
