Weighty Confession

Forgive Me for I Have Sinned

Last night, an urge for sweets hit me from out of nowhere.  I dug around in the back of the cabinets until I found an old, unopened container of a grape kool-aid type drink.  One teaspoonful turned into six heaping spoons of crunchy, sicky-sweet powder - AND an inky-colored tongue and gums as well as lilac teeth.  I brushed my teeth and tongue, spitting purple, until there were but a few lavender splotches left.  Sheeeesh!
 
Thanks for your grace,
Heidi from Springfield  - still somehow maintaining the 65 pound weight loss

Land of the Lost and Found Pounds

Once upon a time a chubby young woman was wandering about in the Land of the Lost and Found Pounds, thinking self-deprecating thoughts when she ran into the Goddess of Forever Thin.

She said, “Hi Goddess. You are wise, and I am desperate.  I want to lose weight once and for all. My triple X elastic waistband pants are tight and leaving skid marks”. (She showed her the marks.)

The Goddess asked, ”How strong is your desire to permanently remove your excess weight?”

“Hey, are you kidding? Am I not in the Land of the Lost and Found Pounds, and did I not just show you my skid marks!” she replied.

The Goddess calmly continued, “Will you plan your meals, shop for fresh fruit and vegetables, power walk around the park at least three times a week?”

"Oh, dear,” chubby young woman replied, “I just don’t have the time.  I’m way too busy during the day and, at night, I am way too tired.”

“What personal sacrifices will you make to ensure that you will reach your goals?” asked the Goddess.

"Sacrifices?” she answered.

"Until you build your ‘want power’ muscles, you will aimlessly move up and down, in and out of the peaks and valleys in the Land of the Lost and Found Pounds.” said the Goddess.

Thankfully, the Goddess of Forever Thin then handed the chubby young woman a little pamphlet to read and digest, giving her much food for thought.

“The Goddess of Forever Thin's Guide to Building Your Want-Power Muscle”

Think “I can” thoughts. Repeat after me… “I can. I can. I can.”  You are starting to feel more confident, aren’t you? (or sing Melt Away the Fat ... scroll down for this week's Creative Act of Weight Loss)

Stay clear of the naysayers. You will undoubtedly find those who say, “You’ll never make it.  It’s too hard.  How can you live without cake 24/7?” etc. etc. etc.! Don’t let the naysayers embed their negative thoughts into your clear mind. Smile and move on, fast.

If not now, when?  You have a responsibility to yourself, first and foremost.  Tomorrow never comes.

Imagine!  Yes, just imagine the level of satisfaction, pride, happiness that you will ultimately experience when you develop positive habits – when you believe in yourself - when you reach your goals. 

 New Point of View:  Developing your ‘want power’ muscle will deliver you from The Land of Lost and Found Pounds to The Land of Forever Thin.

How strong is your want power muscle?  Write OLofWL!

Dear OLofWL ~ I just wanted to mention re: using nuts as suggested in your Motivational Musings in last email newsletter: You don't have to finish them in a month. You can store them in the freezer [shelled of course].  They don't actually freeze but it seems that keeping them in the freezer keeps them forever fresh. I don't know actual life expectancy if kept in freezer, but I haven't had to throw out any nuts yet due to getting old since doing this.  ~ Carolyn E.

Dear Carolyn ~ Thanks for the tip!  Passing it on! ~ OLofWL

Dear OLofWL ~ On the subject of nuts, there is a website that sells peanut butter that is 75% fat free and FABULOUS!  They take out all the oil/moisture and the product is left powdered.  You reconstitute it with water, jelly, bananas....whatever!  It really is terrific and a Godsend to us peanut butter lovers!  Check it out at www.bellplantation.com. ~ Pat L., Redding, CA.
 
Dear Pat ~ Okay!  I just ordered a case!  My husband (who under my tutorlage has permanently removed 8.5 pounds in the past 3 weeks - another 8.5 to go) is so excited to know that he'll be able to make his beloved PB & Jelly soon enough!  Thanks for adding joy and peanut butter to my marriage! ~ OLofWL

Dear OLofWL ~ I am at 29.3# pounds lost and still working on losing more.  My next reward will be a new fashionable wardrobe (at least part of it), and I am going to FINALLY have panties and bras that MATCH !!! what a concept. ~ LC

Dear LC ~ Woo hoo!  Congratulations on PERMANENTLY REMOVING 29.3 pounds.  (Remember, you don't want to find it!) and going wild with your matching panties and bra.  How liberating!! And a perfect reward for your hard work and dedication to yourself! Bravo.  ~ OLofWL

Creative Acts of Weight Loss

What is a creative act of weight loss?

It’s ANYTHING that you do that feels good and feeds your soul, other than eating (the ‘bad’ stuff - in excess - when not hungry).

"Melt the Fat" by Myrna M.
Sing to the tune of 'Row, row, row your boat.'

Melt, melt, melt the fat,
Eat less every day. 
Melt, melt, melt the fat,
Watch it fade away.

(2nd round: Instead of "eat less every day" ... say: "Exercise every day" and 3rd round for us bikers "Pedal on my way.")

I got the idea from reading the letter from Lighter than Air in the OLWL book (page 36). Lighter than Air imagined fat melting off her and ending up in a puddle at her feet. I liked the image and didn't think about it again, at least not consciously.  Then, I was riding my bike a couple of days ago and thought to myself, "Wow, I'm doing something to help melt my fat." Next thing I knew, I was singing this song to the tune of 'Row, row, row your boat.' I've been humming the tune several times a day since and have already shared my song with a couple of friends.

This is the ultimate Creative Act of Weight Loss ... as well as an example of a positive message being embedded in your unconscious mind. Bravo!

"When I called on Janice, I had been stuck at the same weight for close to three months. During the 4 weeks that I worked with Janice, I lost 7 pounds and since then, have been much better adhering to my weight loss plan. Things make sense again. It was a gift to myself speaking to Janice and I recommend her coaching to anyone who wants more support and guidance and help." ~ Rosemary R., Greenwich Village

"Janice Taylor has been a truly inspirational weight loss coach. Through her creative insight I have found my "artists' soul", making the journey to my new lifestyle fulfilling and utterly satisfying. And I permanently removed over 40 pounds of excess weight! " L~ Brooklyn. NY

"Janice has 'been there' and knows the struggle. She offers practical suggestions and inspirational guidance. Her sense of humor and high spiritedness put me at east and helped to make weight loss fun!" - Felice, PA.
