It is now four days since Easter. Have you yet had the courage to look in the mirror at your face, your belly when you step out of the shower? Did you finally get up the courage only to become totally distraught at the image before you? Two articles on today’s oprah.com caught my eye. [...]

A New Beginning
April 8th, 2010Attract Adventure to You?
February 8th, 2010Have you ever looked at life as an adventure? You know, you get up in the morning and with the magical wonder of a kid, you create a chest popping excitement about where the day might take you? Could it be that merely holding this thought attracts adventure to you? As I walked down the [...]
"Hoist, Baby, Hoist…And Take Baby Steps"
September 10th, 2009Check out the wisdom in today’s message from tut.com: “You don’t take ‘baby steps’ for the distance they cover, Rosie, but to put yourself within reach of life’s magic. Just like you don’t hoist your sails to move the boat, but to put yourself within reach of the wind. Hoist, baby, hoist, baby, 1, 2, [...]
"Goodbye to the Old, Hello to the New…"
August 28th, 2009“Goodbye to the old, hello to the new. You’ve finished one part of your life, and now a new and even better part is beginning.” My morning message was one I randomly selected from Doreen Virtue’s work. What a perfect message to share with you as I wrap up a week that has been devoted [...]
Junk Food Isn't Cheap…
August 26th, 2009Dr. Campbell writes in The China Study: “Dairy products are particularly rich in calcium, so the dairy industry eagerly supports efforts to boost calcium consumption. Something is amiss, though, because those countries that use the most cow’s milk and its products have the highest fracture rates and the worst bone health.” Dr. Campbell goes on [...]
Another Way to Look at Compounded Interest…
August 21st, 2009This week I have been talking about “releasing weight” slowly over time. A little effort over a period of time = amazing results. This morning on my walk, I listened to a recorded call by Robert G. Allen, best-selling author of The One Minute Millionaire. Bob explained it this way: Take $1 a day, each [...]
Little Baby Steps…
August 20th, 2009I have been writing the past couple days about “releasing” weight. Today my mind is swirling thinking how it all happens. At the 5:30 am Jazzercise class today one of the participants made a comment that me stop and realize that it was the baby steps that led to a noticeable result. “How much weight [...]
Carbs…Out of Control!
August 19th, 2009A funny thing happened at the upscale restaurant this weekend. As I examined the menu for the lowest carb item, I asked the waitress for her recommendation. “Sounds like you’re on the same diet I’m on!” was her reply. Feeling confident I was now in good hands, I immediately took her recommendation and ordered a [...]
Weight Loss is Like Hiking…
August 18th, 2009A friend and I have made a long term commitment to eat a healthy diet, monitor our carbs, and slowly “release” the excess weight. We don’t want to “lose” it. Subliminally speaking, when you “lose” something, you are always looking for it, wanting it back. Not so in this case! Now that Dr. Gabhart has [...]
Carbs Can Do a Number on Women…
August 6th, 2009Yesterday I listened to call on hayhouseradio.com given by Nurse Practitioner Marcelle Pick on hormones and weight reduction. At one point in the call, a woman who is vegan called in complaining of weight gain. Marcelle responded that some postmenopausal women don’t do well on a vegan diet. The carbs in a vegan diet are [...]
