I’ve been having quite a nice summer (notice I’m not putting that in the past tense, because I’m in DENIAL that the warm weather season is coming to an end!), some ups and downs but overall I feel good about my ongoing growth. I hate to frame this in terms of weight — life is [...]

Having a mindset oriented around doing it for a “grade” — doesn’t work with eating, doesn’t work in business

I think I still battle this, though it’s gotten oh so much better. It’s the idea that one does what they do not because that’s what will genuinely render results, but because it looks good on paper, it will be handed in for a grade, and the better the grade, the better i.e. your weight [...]

I’ll be honest, it’s never comfortable for me to write (or talk) about my bingeing, even if I’m the only one reading/reviewing my words. But over the years, I have found great success in writing down my latest stragies to try on for size. Some of them have worked extremely well and are still part [...]

What a nice way to finish off the Christmas holiday. After cooking dinner for my husband and myself (we had celebrated with our various families earlier in the day and the day before), we took a long walk around the neighborhood to fully take in the Christmas lights.
