A year ago today, I was blogging about managing my own and others’ worries as I prepared for my STAAR surgery. I was also looking forward to attending my friend Tammy’s first bodybuilding competition. My mind was busy and the level of stress I was experiencing was greater than I knew. The idea for this…
Work has kept me too busy to post. However, I found this so powerful that I had to take a moment to post. Please, do yourself a favor and take a look at this. Beauty – do we really see who we are? Dove – Real beauty sketches
I cannot remember whether I have posted before and after pictures here. So, I apologize if you have already seen these. While I have been larger than this (with an all time high of 235), this is a pretty good representation of what I looked like for most of my adult life (except that I…
154 weeks using the bodybugg (most of the time). That’s about 1080 days! My weight loss journey began on March 8, 2010. That was 1127 days ago (and interestingly, that was also a Monday). I cannot begin to tell you all that I have learned about diet, nutrition, exercise, metabolism, weight lifting/training and so on.…
“Just say no” was a part of an anti-drug campaign in the 1980’s and early 1990’s. However, that is not how I am using this phrase. Instead, I am encouraging you to say no to a broader range of situations and people. How many times have you said yes to someone’s request for you to do…

I read a post on a social media site that said something like: year 2013 , day one of 365. It brought several things to mind. First, the obvious, today is the first day of a new year. However, it also brought to mind the idea that today does not have to be perfect. It…
I went to the gym today for the first time in several days. Company and holiday preparations got in the way…and I let them. Anyway, the first thing I noticed at the gym was the sign indicating holiday hours next week. They are open until noon on the last day of the year and open…
Winter is definitely here. As I look out my office window, I see snow. Snow on mountains, in yards, and on rooftops. I see the remnants of plowed snow along the curbs. It is unlikely to melt today…the temperature did not rise above freezing. Inside my office, it is warmer, but not warm enough. My…
We often don’t take the time to consider the many opportunities that arise each day, opportunities to look at something in a different way.
