The assignment was to make your list of the reasons you want to loose weight, make copies of it and post around your environment. We are then supposed to read the list several times a day. I copied my list and have it on me at all times. I posted some at home and at work. I may make it a screen saver on my computer as well. Post your experience with this assignment.

Anyone else have a hard time with this?  I can make the list of reasons but they seem very personal and I'm not all that comfortable "Posting in my environment".  I probably just need to get over it .  I just wondered if anyone else felt this way.

Right now Im at work. I have one list at my desk in my drawer hidden under my snack stash so I can pull it out (i do my eating at my desk) My other list is in my bra..lol ( I never have any pockets) i can duck into the bathroom and read it in the stall. at home i will post on the fridge. They also suggested writing your list in shorthand or some type of code only you understand if you are afraid of people finding it.

I have my copy printed and put on my fridge.  At first, my kids made fun of it, but I told them it was what I needed to do.   Now, if I seem stressed, they remind me of my list and tell me to go read it..LOL.   I have a copy in my purse and on my computer, but I don't feel comfortable posting it at work.

I've filled mine out but haven't posted it anywhere. It feels very private to me. I LOVE the sticking it in my bra idea!! lol!! Always close at hand. I think I just might do that.

I haven't made a list so to speak, but in my daily journal I have my before picture.  I also have an 8 x 10 hanging in my kitchen.  Everytime I open my journal, or go into my kitchen there it is...in living color!   When I look at it I can't think of a better reason than to LOVE MYSELF and GET HEALTHY!
