Welcome to the Great Journey!

Life can get so busy, so hectic, and crazy. It is easy to let some things go by the wayside. For many it is finances, friends, and extended family. But most often it is one’s health. When life is busy, the fast food joint serves its purpose. A candy bar keeps you going, and a 64-ounce soda gets you through the day. And then we fall into patterns. Some patterns are carried over from childhood and continue through habit and some develop as an effect of circumstances. Patterns of being late, being busy, running around, and that is before you even get to work. It really is no wonder that so many are overfat. Who has time for a good meal?

I must be clear with you right up front. Life can get in the way and we all have more to do than we can humanly accomplish in a 24-hour day, but these are only circumstances and not excuses. These are not reasons to remain overfat, out of shape, and deteriorating. I am unapologetically direct and frank at times because I know that you have the power, strength, courage, and willpower to make any change in your life that you set your mind too. The human mind and body is almost without limits. Success stories are everywhere with people who have gone from fat to fit, from weak to strong, from sick to healthy, and from diseased to free.

This is your life and your choices. Will you choose to stay the way you are? You can complain about your health and weight for the rest of your life, or you can choose to make a change. Will you commit to creating the life of your dreams? Will you accept nothing less than a fit and sculpted body? Will you demand a healthy life so that you can play with your children, family, pets, and friends with a vigor and enthusiasm known only to those who have taken control of his or her life? These are questions only you can answer. Only you can decide to make a change. The choice must be made by you, and for you. Weight loss is easy once your mind decides it is a must.

Life is a wonderful journey. It is even grander when you have the energy of a 20-year-old lifeguard, and a body that you admire on yourself at any age. Life is amazing when you have the endurance to holiday at Disney World with your children and they tire out before you do. Life is outstanding when you do not need to worry about high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, most diseases, or respiratory problems.

This can be your life! It is up to you!

Let me help you get there.
