A Little of This; A Little of That

Just what I feel to write about at any given time... Mostly about health and fitness across the board ~ physical, mental, emotional, financial ~ or, sometimes, I may just run a rant.

  1. Waayyy Outside My Comfort Zone

    I began my new UStream show this morning. I had planned on starting it last Monday as in last week Monday yet, kept procrastinating. I think my main concern was that I couldn't test everything before it went live. (you can ~ mostly).

    I've gotten use to doing shows where I'm not seen yet, on UStream, eeeeuww! I KNOW I look better than I do on camera. (well, I think I do. )

    Set it up, everything is blurry. Ummm, how do I turn on the camera?

    Then we do a test. ...
  2. The Route to Successful Weight Elimination ~ It's Not About the Food

    When I first began learning EFT, I had a hard time with tapping on the negative part of the sentences. For so many years, I’ve been saying “Acknowledge but don’t focus” and here, we’re saying something negative and tapping on it?? To me, that was like tapping the negative INTO myself and I had SO much resistance.

    What I have found since then though is that the reason we say the negative is to acknowledge and accept where we are. For instance, if someone says, “Even though I constantly ...
  3. You Get What You Focus On

    As I've been focusing more and more on getting my Bodacious Living site up and running, and promoting my weight elimination program over the last few months, I've been watching how things have changed for me.

    It's true you get what you focus on. My program is not about raw per se although, currently, everyone in it is, or tends toward raw, I do recommend, when people are hungry, that they lean towards more produce. Eliminating the cravings, habits and emotional eating patterns is much ...

    Last night in class, one of the women said "It's ...
  5. Still Steppin....

    Last evening, I had just under 7,000 steps and it was already 8 p.m. What to do? Listen to the monkey chattering in my ear telling me how late it is? That 7,000 is a good number? That it's probably closer to 8,000 since I didn't wear Lil Ped in and around the house?

    Well, the phone call came ~ Him telling me He was about an hour out so, got dressed, put Lil Ped at my waist and out I went. By the time I got home, He was home and I'd logged in 11,055 steps.
