Alrighty, let’s get into the details of this life experiment #45873.
Just kidding. I know I am part researcher by nature, so I love to do experiments all over the place. Why not do one for easy weight loss?
So, let’s just dive into some starting details.
1. I am not one of these people who hates themselves when they are out of shape or overweight. I actually have the opposite issue… inside of me, I feel amazingly attractive and people tell me all the time how beautiful I am (which I feel comes from inside), so when I get a photo where I realize I really do need to lose some extra pounds, it is almost weird because that isn’t how I feel.
2. #1 presents a big challenge because I have to remind myself to think of myself in a different way. And, it also points to the fact that somewhere, lurking way underneath the surface, there’s a hidden image that keeps me where I am.
3. I’ve dealt with my weight… excess or otherwise (I’ve also been anorexic)… ever since I was a little kid who was a bit ‘thick’ for my build. Now, with my own son, I can see – literally – that we are just thick people. That’s how God made us. We will never be a thin build, and that’s okay.
4. I had an epiphany a couple of weeks ago as I worked with a client. I stated very matter of factly that creation works extremely predictably. As I said it, I could feel this energy underneath focused like a laser beam on the words as they tumbled out of my mouth. Wow. Okay, let’s do this! I use these principles for everything else…why not for health? And, that’s when I realized that weight loss is the ONLY thing I go OUTSIDE of MYSELF for an answer. This is a long-standing pattern.
5. #4 tells me WHY even my rising at pre-dawn really wasn’t moving the needle on the scale. I made a DECISION back in December to lose this 80 lbs. (third time is the charm!) for the LAST time in MY WAY. I said to myself, “Self… we won’t be coming back here. This is the last time. We’ll do it our way and it will be our way for life.”
6. Here, we are.. on a precipice for a new dawn. Using creation tools for weight loss. I’ve tried everything else… isn’t this cool to be able to actually use my teachings to transform my body, too??? Whoa, I’m having a forest for the trees moment.
7. SO grateful, though! Really…

This is me in Hawaii … fit and active… and healthy and happy.
Well, maybe a wee bit thicker, but still fit and active…and healthy and happy!
