Don’t Give Up!

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

Recently, I hosted a contest and gave away Free Metabolism Makeover Body Transformation Program Trials.  Although I was very pleased with the overwhelming number of entries, I was struck by the number of women who are truly frustrated with failed weight loss efforts or women who just can’t seem to get motivated to even begin the journey of weight loss and living a healthier life.

If you’ve looked over my… Continue reading

Is it Time for a Makeover?

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

Hello ladies.  Valentine’s day is over (I hope it was a very sweet one for you).  The scent of flowers is probably still in the air, the not-too-distant memories floating in your mind of a dinner not cooked by you, and you may even still have a few chocolates to finish up.  Hurry up; mine are already done. :-)

You Look Good

Friday, January 15th, 2010

So, I just returned home from a visit to my local post office.  One of the ladies that frequently helps me out when I am there asked me “have you been losing weight?  You look good.  Everytime I see you, your face is getting smaller and smaller.“ 

Now, mind you, I began losing weight over 15 months ago and reached my goal weight over 6 months ago.  But, that Continue reading

How to Lose One Pound Per Week

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Cut 500 calories a day.  Sound like a lot?  Not really.  Here’s how:

- Burn 250 calories in extra activity (swimming, walking, chores, etc.)

- Eat 250 fewer calories (smaller portions, fewer snacks, no seconds, etc.).

If you do this consistently for a whole week (must include weekends), that will equal 3500 calories, which is equivalent to about one pound.  That is how to lose one pound Continue reading | 3 Comments
