Day 4 of my Eat to Live, 6 Week Plan for Aggressive Weight Loss and drinking a great Shakeology right now almond milk, bananas and fresh strawberries.
Several years ago I read the book, Younger Next Year for Women and loved it. The basic point I took from the book was “you have to age, you don’t have to rot”. The book talked about how important exercise is in keeping our bodies healthy. One of the authors has a new book called Thinner This Year and I started

Excited to begin Day 2 of my 6 Week Plan for Aggressive Weight Loss on the Dr Fuhrman’s Eat to Live program.
Yesterday was a really good day went to bed very proud of myself. Every day is a new day and we need to continually find what motivates us. Motivation changes and focusing on what is most important to us each day is a great way to follow your plan and fulfill you intentions. We are self motivating creatures. I can get excited and

Sometimes the hardest weight to let of permanently are regrets which weigh heavily on my our hearts. Learning to accept what is and being grateful goes a long way to lighten our load both mentally and physically.
When I saw Dr. Roger Gould, the author of Shrink Yourself, speak there was 1 point which really struck home with me. He talked about accepting things the way they are and if there is something we can’t change, learn to deal with the reality of the situation in ways other than eating; giving up regret over things we can not change. Being

My belief is no matter what our goals our, the determining factor between success and failure is attitude. In The Strangest Secret, Earl Nightingale talks about how we ‘become what we think about’. I have long been a fan of Earl and recently purchased a CD Compilation of his work titled, The Essence of Success. The first call I answered this morning was from the Nightingale Conant Company where I purchased my audio program. Assuming they were calling to sell me another product, I was very surprised when I heard why they were really calling. Apparently, when I ordered the

Was so excited to get on the scale this morning. And was thrilled to be down 4 pounds!!! The best part was I ate great foods and was never hungry last week. Maybe even more importantly, I feel satisfied, happy and at peace that I was choosing what to eat and feeling good about it. So today is Day 8 and looking forward to another great week.
The Dr Fuhrman 6 Week Eat to Live Plan for Aggressive Weight Loss is really what I have chosen for my life plan. Since we already don’t eat animal products, it is pretty

Day 7, End of Week 1 of 6 Week Plan for Aggressive Weight Loss!
With my commitment to follow the program for 6 weeks, planned dinner yesterday morning and made crock pot split pea soup. When we eating dinner last night was deliciously reminded how good meals you make at home are and doesn’t need to be difficult, expensive or time consuming. Probably took less than 20 minutes to make the soup Kevin and I both had for dinner last night, he took for lunch today and I am having

Day #5 and started off this morning with a free cooking demo at Native Foods Cafe, the new vegan restaurant in town. Native Foods in Palm Desert was the very 1st vegan restaurant I ever dined about 19 years ago and finally now have one in my neighborhood. The title was Tuscan Evening and the demo included:
Antipasto ~ Marinated Olives
Primo ~ Truffled Asparagus Risotto
Secondo ~ Pasta Puttanesca
Il Dolce ~ Tiramisu
All were 100% vegan and delicious. They had a little tiny serving of each and I did taste the 1 bite of everything and loved it.

My 3 favorite stores to shop are Barnes & Noble, Office Depot and Best Buy. No matter what you weigh, your books, gel pens and electronics always still fit. I really don’t enjoy clothes shopping I’m usually setting for what fits which looks ok, rather than buying things I love and was excited to wear. One trick is finding something which is acceptable and then buying it in every color; ending up with this mix and match wardrobe where basically all the outfits looks

Day 3 of Dr Fuhrman’s 6 Week Plan for Aggressive Weight Loss and feeling good. Both breakfast and dinner were out and 100% ETL. Got everything in except my berries and have those for today.
Does anyone besides me see people who are overweight and wonder if you look bigger or smaller than they do. I used to ask Kevin ‘do I look thinner or heavier than that person?’ At breakfast yesterday wanted to ask my mom’s opinion about someone who walked by and changed my mind. Guess I did

Good Morning Day 2 of my Dr Fuhrman’s 6 Week Plan for Aggressive Weight Loss!
Counting yesterday as a success even though there were a couple of mistakes; remembered too late I had not eaten any beans and realized this morning I had oatmeal at breakfast and brown rice at dinner. Feel asleep hungry and lived through the night anyway. This morning I am taking my mom for a doctor’s appointment and her favorite part is taking us out to breakfast at IHOP afterwards. I will have either a bowl of plain oatmeal or a bowl of fruit.
Was fun
