  • Law of Attraction: People Want to Make a Difference - I've been noticing an interesting trend lately.

Or they'll say, "The Law of Attraction (LOA) offers a genuine way to make a difference in (their area of interest)." I shared this insight with a student in our Certified Law of Attraction Practitioner's course and she agreed immediately! Jackie Davies has noticed that after just a few courses in Law of Attraction, she IS making a difference.
  • Stop Being a Victim - The foundation for living a great life rests on one vital principle: You are responsible. Yep, that's right - you are responsible. Unhappy in your job?

Guess who spent more money then they could afford? In a bad relationship?

  • Are You Eating Your Emotions? - When you eat when you aren't hungry, have you ever stopped to question who it is you're feeding? Many of us feed ourselves based on an emotional need, even when the emotions are negative or positive. Many of us eat when we are sad, bored, angry, or even joyous and happy. When we are emotionally eating, it is usually something quick, easy, and pre-made, pre-packed or requires very little preparation other than opening a box or wrapper. Any food choice that is especially sugary, salty, or crunchy are the favorite fixes. We are feeding ourselves with quick fixes that usually have little or no nutrition, and we're eating when we are in a mode of emotional unbalance and hunger isn't the issue. We're caught in old patterns of mindless, compulsive emotional overeating. Have you ever stopped to ask yourself, "Who are you feeding?
  • Entrepreneurialism And The Dwarf House - Entrepreneurialism is a dynamic that has two primary sources of influence – passion and necessity. To become an entrepreneur is enjoyable when you have a passion for a business idea you are passionate about. However, if you have to become an entrepreneur in response to a fight or flight mentality the story might be different. This is the true story of a young man who served his country in World War II, but had no idea what he could do to make a living once he was discharged. In 1946 this young man went into debt to develop the Dwarf House restaurant with his brother, Ben.
  • It Is About Why You Eat, Not What You Eat - One of the problems with weight loss surgery and diet programs is our belief that they hold the answer. If only we can follow them, they will work for us. Unfortunately for many of us, we didn't experience long-term weight loss success. Did we fail? No. Absolutely not! The diets failed because they are not the answer. As effective of a tool as weight loss surgery and diet programs can be, they aren't the answer. What?? I'm a weight loss and weight loss surgery coach, and a weight loss surgery post-op of seven years and I'm telling you that surgery and diet programs aren't the answer? How can that be? Actually, I am a weight loss and weight loss surgery coach because you need to develop your own program that is special and customized for you. The answer is inside of you.
  • Commitment List versus Wish List - Do you want to lose weight? Do you want a different way of life that includes losing weight, feeling good in your body, wearing a smaller size, and have strong sense of confidence in yourself? You can have it. It is yours to make happen. All you need to do is make a commitment to the most important person in your life - YOU! To reach any goal worth having, you need to be committed. To lose weight requires persistence and consistency. It requires saying no to food choices when sometimes you'd rather indulge. It requires a commitment to your diet and along with a promise to yourself. If you had a friend that constantly made promises to you yet regularly broke them, what would you think of that friend? Would you want that person in your life?
  • What's The Focus Of Your Holidays? - An important change that occurs when making the commitment to lose weight is to change the focus of your life. You can start right now with the holidays. Instead of making the holidays about pumpkin and pecan pies, globs of mashed potatoes, mounds of stuffing, and all those freshly baked holiday goodies, focus on your family and friends rather than food.

  • Lose Weight With A Vision Board - Weight loss goals are important. Your dreams of wearing a particular size or seeing a specific number on the scale are also important. Are these weight loss goals and dreams someplace that you can see them? Do you have a visual reminder of what you want? Take it out of your head and create a weight loss vision board.
  • Balanced Budget for Calories and Exercise - Do you have a personal financial budget? Is your checkbook balanced regularly? Do you know your finances? Are your expenditures appropriate to your overall finances? Consider the same philosophy for your body through a calorie and exercise budget. Why not? If it works for you financially, it makes perfect sense to follow a calorie and exercise budget too. You have a certain number of calories to consume throughout your day. Are you overextended or saving with your calories? If you're eating too many calories, you're gaining weight and out of balance with your caloric budget.
  • Independence Day From Emotional Eating - We celebrate our country's independence every year. As we celebrate that July 4th Independence Day, celebrate your own.

  • Emotional Medication of Food - We take over-the-counter pain relief medications when we have a headache. What do you do if you experience an uncomfortable emotion or situation that arises?

Diet programs are effective temporarily.

  • Success With Changes In Your Life - New Year's isn't a day different than any other. The New Year represents new beginnings, hope of things differently in our lives, and all of the possibilities that lie ahead for us. We reflect on our lives as they are today and project ahead to the changes we'd like to make. Changes can be made but the key to success and personal fulfillment is to make them long-lasting. You've identified your desire to make change (or changes) in your life. Now, think about a specific time when you felt driven to accomplish a goal and achieve success. What were the reasons that motivated you? Why did you want to succeed? Why was the change important for you to make? Now that you have this in mind, feel that sense of empowerment.

  • Are You Hungry? - People who struggle with weight often have difficulty identifying the difference between true physical hunger and head hunger. To lose weight, it is necessary to be aware of the differences. Sometimes this is a challenge because head hunger can be so convincing (loud) and persistent that we believe it is physical hunger. We need a strategy to be able to recognize them and respond accordingly in a healthy way. A great tool in your weight loss strategy belt is to use the chart below to rate your hunger.
  • Language of Food Labels - You go to the grocery store knowing you are shopping for foods that are nutritious and healthy. Your primary goal when selecting your grocery choices is to continue your weight loss and maintenance success. You check the labels and the numbers reflect that it is a healthy choice.....but is it? Being an advocate for your own health means knowing how to read the labels and to determine what the information means for your body and food plan. The first thing to remember in learning the language of labels is that you want to make your calories count. Your goal is to obtain the most nutrition for your nutrition calories. Essentially, you are spending your calories for the most nutrition possible.
  • Small Changes To Your Weight Loss, Part 4 - This is another installment in our series of how little changes can add up to weight loss success. Just as a huge, luxury cruise ship turns in small increments to make an adjustment, so can you.

Make small changes and adjustments to achieve a u-turn in your diet.

  • Sugar Is Not Your Friend In Weight Loss - Do you realize that the average American consumes an astounding two to three pounds of sugar each week? Sugar is disguised in many different forms such as sucrose (table sugar), dextrose (corn sugar), and high-fructose corn syrup. Sugar is used in many foods you wouldn't consider to contain sugar. Sugar is added to bread, mayonnaise, peanut butter, ketchup, spaghetti sauce, and in many microwave meals. Some restaurants even add sugar to their French fry batter. Sugar is used to add or enhance flavor. In the past 20 years, our sugar consumption has increased to a whopping 26 pounds per person per year!
  • Have Fun and Play as Your Exercise Program - We all know that exercise is important. It is the cornerstone to successful weight loss and maintain your weight. Many of us though consider exercise as a chore. We think of it as a "have to" rather than a "get to" in our day.

  • Seven Habits to Avoid for Your Weight Loss Success - We didn't wake up one day and find ourselves overweight or obese. It usually happens over a long period of time and due to many habits that don't promote weight loss. Habits are hard to break but they can be broken.

Weight loss surgery is not a cure for weight and food issues. The surgery does not do all of the work. It allows you to replace heavy habits with healthy habits to lose weight and maintain weight loss. Weight loss surgery is a tool. You can regain weight. Surgery is a tool we choose to use. If you want to lose, choose to use your surgery.

This problem shows up in the plural of nouns. In the same way, the written letter “t” sometimes sounds like the letter “d”. This problem comes up in the past tense of verbs. There is a logic that is at work in both cases, that of the plural of the noun and that of the past tense of the verb.
