TSFL LOVE

Hi everyone!

Just got back from the most amazing Take Shape for Life convention!!  I was in Washington, DC with over 2500 health and weight loss coaches.  It was SO exciting to hear Dr. Andersen speak, along with all of the leaders in this incredible company.  I want you all to know that I am SO confident that we have one of the BEST companies backing us - you are in very good hands.  And you have the best food plan in the whole industry!  I was able to talk to Dr. Garcia - an oncologist - who is now a health coach with TSFL.  She and SO many other doctors are jumping on board with this life-changing program, so they can help with the growing epidemic of obesity.  It's good to see doctors who want to help people get and stay healthy, instead of just put "bandaids" on the diseases that are caused by being overweight.

I was also SO excited to see the possibilities of this health coaching opportunity.  I need to dream WAY bigger from now on.  I'm on track to make every single dream come true - SO thrilled to be part of this!  The great thing is that ANY of you clients can do this same exact thing.  Remember... in January of this year - just 5 short months ago - I was overweight and in fact, obese.



I started my journey at 236 pounds.  After only 5 months, I've lost over 67 pounds and over 70 inches from my body.  I'm feeling SO much better, and my energy level has sky-rocketed.  Just 8 more pounds to go to my goal weight!!


There are many of you on this same journey with me, and I'm grateful every single day, that I get to help all of my clients feel as good as I do.

If you are reading this, and haven't jumped at this opportunity - please contact me.  I can help you achieve ALL of your goals.  Remember, TSFL is all about the Trilogy of Health - healthy body, healthy mind, and healthy finances.

LOVE this company (have I already said that?!) :)

Weight Watchers - The ABCs of Weight Loss

I read this in the Weight Watcher magazine July/August 2008, and thought there were some great suggestions here. These were all contributed by successful WW members)...

A - Ask questions (when dining out, don't be afraid to ask your server how a dish is prepared - and request it without sauce or oil).

B - Budget for snacks - you don't have to give up all of your favorite treats, just plan ahead.

C - Cancel the pity party - when you're down about your weight, remind yourself that everyone struggles.

D - Distract yourself - If you're hungry, call a friend, go for a walk, write a letter or email, etc. You'll notice that the hunger usually passes in a matter of minutes.

E - Eat slowly - put the fork down between bites, be more aware of how much you're putting in your mouth.

F - Focus on the presentation - arrange your food creatively, use a larger plate and spread your portions more artfully, it will help you feel more satisfied.

G - Give the new habits time - make a commitment to stick to your new regimen for at least 6 months, it often takes that long for revamped eating or exercise habits to feel natural.

H - Hang out with optimists - The can-do spirit is contagious.

I - Inspire yourself - brainstorm a list of activities you've been putting off because of your weight - it will provide a built-in incentive to slim down.

J - Join up - exercise with others - this often provides a sense of accountibility.

K - Keep your focus - as you lose weight, notice what you're gaining - a healthier diet, slimmer profile, or a new love of exercise.

L - Lighten up your favorite - Use cookbooks that can show you low-fat, healthier versions of your favorite dishes.

M - Make over your kitchen - get rid of trigger foods (those you often overeat) and restock your kitchen with healthy items.

N - Navigate out of your comfort zone - try a new exercise once a week.

O - Opt for the 10-minute rule - Even if you don't feel like it, get moving for at least 10 minutes.

P - Push yourself to try at least one new fruit or vegetable each week - expand your culinary repertoire in a healthy, low-calorie way.

Q - Quit the clean-plate club - stop eating once you're satisfied, and you won't eat tons of extra calories.

R - Reward yourself - if you are looking for a snack after dinner, give yourself a manicure or pedicure instead!

S - Stand up to food pushers - if a host pressures you to eat something you'd rather avoid, tell her you'll try something else on the table - compliment her, and she'll be distracted.

T - Treat your body like a temple - exercise and take care of yourself as if you were an athlete.

U - Use your lunch break wisely - spend half of your lunch break walking.

V - View sweet treats wisely - if you want to shed pounds, you can't eat sweets whenever you like. Find a low - calorie substitute that you can have every day, or limit rich desserts to once a week.

W - Write a gratitude list - each day, jot down 3 to 5 things in your life that you're grateful for.

X - Xerox your exercise moves - find exercise routines you'd like to try in books and magazines, and make copies, then refer to these when you need new moves.

Y - Yearn to accept where you are now - when you fell discouraged by your rate of progress, try to accept and appreciate yourself at your current weight. This might help you hang in there until you start losing weight again.

Z - Zero in on your body - Don't wear big baggy clothes - wearing clothes that fit well to remind yourself of your diet and fitness goals - and the slimmer body your are striving for.

GOOD LUCK!
