"Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude."


Thomas Jefferson
Third US President

Isn't it funny, how the simplest job can turn into an "Ah-ha"!

This afternoon while cutting the grass I decided to cut it on the diagonal and after the first pass, it was crookeder' (yep that's a word I just made up) than a dog's hind leg!

Giggling to myself, I thought, wow what happened there. So I made another pass halfway down the centre of the first trying to straighten it out. Ok. Next pass, ended up just as crooked as the first.

Alright, what's going on I ask myself? Then I realize that I've been focusing on the ground just in front of the wheels of the lawn mower and think, that's what's going on - just like goal setting, you need to keep your eyes focused on the end result and course correct as needed.

We teach about goal setting in our weekend events, which is drastically different than the usual malarkey. I know, as I've been an unsatisfied participant at more than one of those in my time.

What I love about our S.M.A.R.T. goal setting, is that it actually works!

Why not bring your passions into reality by reconnecting to them; make more money, have better health, better relationships?

We assist each person in determining what they truly want to achieve; in the one area of their life that's most out of alignment and that when they get their goal, it will have the biggest impact.

S: Specific, Simple
M: Measurable, Meaningful to You
A: As if now, Achievable, All areas of Your Life
R: Realistic, Responsible/Ecological
T: Timed, Toward What You Want

Making sure that is stated simply, achievable while being a stretch, that it's good for them, that it has action steps in it and it has a date stamp on it. Together we quantum charge it and put it in the persons timeline.

It's always rewarding to hear back from our participants that because of our trainings they achieved their goals and in the process their lives changed for the better!

Love what I do....

The Steak Day & Raw Tomato! 180 lb. (-4 lb)

Well that certainly worked and corrected the + 1 lb, in fact it took 3 more pounds with it :)


Every day you can make the choice of what you want to attract…whether it’s health, security, or happiness. You make these choices with your given attitude, thoughts, and actions. Therefore your own self is always one of your most powerful healing tools!

What will you choose today!

"The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want."

Ben Stein - Attorney, Author, Actor and Commentator


Maintenance Phase 'til Sept 1

184 lb I'm over the 2 lb limit, so here comes the "Steak Day"

The following is from Dr. Simeons Book "Pounds & Inches":

As long as their weight stays within two pounds of the weight reached on the day of the last HCG Drops, patients should take no notice of any increase but the moment the scale goes beyond two pounds, even if this is only a few ounces, they must on that same day entirely skip breakfast and lunch but take plenty to drink. In the evening they must eat a huge steak with only an apple or a raw tomato. Of course this rule applies only to the morning weight. Ex-obese patients should never check their weight during the day, as there may be wide fluctuations and these are merely alarming and confusing. It is of utmost importance that the meal is skipped on the same day as the scale registers an increase of more than two pounds and that missing the meals is not postponed until the following day. If a meal is skipped on the day in which a gain is registered in the morning this brings about an immediate drop of often over a pound. But if the skipping of the meal - and skipping means literally skipping, not just having a light meal - is postponed the phenomenon does not occur and several days of strict dieting may be necessary to correct the situation.

Ok! I'm deciding that I'll do the Steak Day to correct the weight gain of 3 lbs.

I haven't done this before. There was one day, which I wrote about on July 25, where I missed the opportunity to utilize the Steak Day.

So for today, it's tons' of tea and water 'til supper.

Question:
Realizing that you design your life by your thoughts, expectations and desires, how would you feel about it sounding better than ever and looking so bright and beautiful, now?

"Write something to suit yourself and many people will like it; write something to suit everybody and scarcely anyone will care for it." Jesse Stuart

180.5 lb Steady as she goes!

Just back from 6 days in the States and did my best to follow the program.

There's nothing that can hold a candle to Neuro Linguistic Programming and Time Line Therapy (TM) for permanent change.

That's one of the reasons that I love what I do, assisting people in making change so that they get the results that they want, whether it's in Career, Relationship, Finance, Personal Growth, you name it.

Do you want quick and permanent transformation in your life, now?

Stable Day #20 - 178.5 lb (-2.5 from weight set point)

Oops! I'm 0.5 under the 2 lb limit of either 2 lb above 181 or 2 lb below. I didn't eat enough yesterday obviously.

Was up at the cottage Fri to Mon where we had a 50th BD bash for my brothers Jeff & Jamie. Lots of eating and laughs. Not everything on the menu was allowed for me but I was able to pick and choose from the mountains of food being served.

I had very supportive and positive feedback from my family in regards to my weight loss success and this blog. A comment was made about not quite understanding the lingo, such as NLP and HCG.

Will do better to be clearer and to add complete pages for each of these.

Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP): NLP is a model of communication – how we communicate to self and others – and how that communication creates and affects our behaviour.

As a study, it is a synthesis of cognitive and behavioural philosophies which focus on the information coming in through the neurology (cognitive) and the programs we run inside our heads to produce the behaviours (behavioural) we do.

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG): HCG is a polypeptide protein that exists in every tissue in the human body in tiny amounts. When a woman becomes pregnant her body produces high quantities of this which aides in supplying nutrition for the baby.

HCG helps break down and mobilize "abnormal fat" cells so they can be used by your body for energy and appetite suppression during the very low calorie (VLCD) phase of the diet.

Stabilization Day #10 - 181 lb
(July 16 - Aug 5)

Well I came home late Fri night, weighed in yesterday a.m. and was 184 after a week of no scales, chaos and running around-I'd say I did very well. Only up 3.

The idea is to stay within 2 up or down from the end weight, in my case, 181. They suggest a "Steak Day" which I could've done yesterday but didn't remember that fact until after I'd had breakfast-lol.

It's funny but I really want to continue on my mission, to lose approximately another 40 lb but need to wait at least 6 weeks in between each round of HCG.

The reason being is that you "Stabilize" for the 1st 3 weeks, increasing your caloric intake, to allow your body to let you know where your new weight set point is. You want to set a healthy metabolism. Your body is also getting rid of any HCG in it.

Then the 2nd 3 weeks is "Maintenance", where you slowly add in other foods, weighing every day and they suggest using the steak day when necessary.

As in all proper goal setting, when you achieve one, you set another. I've planned my next round, which will be for 23 days based on the other information that I acquired recently.

That would make it Aug. 26 - Sept. 20.

Cheers to Your Health!
