Time for a re-run! Thanks for being here!! Let’s learn together a healthier way of life and kick those bad habits to the curb! Basically it is that simple!
Just think....If you start today, tomorrow will be a better day! After 32 years of being "pleasingly plump", "chunky", "a little on the heavy side", "overweight", "fat" and then the Doctor saying the word "OBESE"....I knew it was time for a change. I was attending a seminar through my work that was all about getting your business to the next level and learning to do away with the "self-deprecating" talk, becoming mindful of your actions, and to quit using uselss terms like.... "I'll try"....I learned "there is NO try".....you either do it or your don't. I took those lessons and decided to work on applying them to getting my "head on straight" about getting healthy and losing weight. After all, my doctor visit also indicated high blood pressure for the first time in my life and medication was my option. Well....it was no option for me. I left the Dr.'s office that day refusing to take the prescription for blood pressure pills. I told her "I will lose weight" and see if that helps. She was less than thrilled with me and my attitude about being medicated. Well, it was the very last week of the 8 week course and a surprise visitor showed up to discuss a healthy weight loss method...hmmmm "divine inervention"? I took her info and at first was very excited. But then I got home, looked it up online and decided this too was just another "pipe dream" offer just wanting my money and a year later, I'd be fatter and more broke. She then called me and asked if I had made the time to review the plan. I said, I wasn't interested as "I've tried literally everything and every plan on the market" and here I am still "OBESE" and I'm tired of throwing money away on weightloss methods. Then I asked "what makes this plan any different"...."what will it do to wow me"? This nice young lady very politely just said.....why don't you just give me 30 days to show you. Just dedicate 30 days to the plan....that's it. So I did! I ordered the plan and when it arrived I was losing interest again and enjoying my "eat what I want because it won't make a difference anyway" attitude. I got a call from the "health coach" asking me "have you started yet....your food should have arrived by now". I reluctantly said "no" I just wasn't ready to begin. She asked "have you started reading the book that was in the box "Habits of Health"....again my answer was "no". She said, GET THE BOOK OUT....read the first couple chapters. That was June 20, 2010. I got to about page 23 and I slammed the book shut, cleared out a place in my cupboard for all my Optavia meals, called her back and said "I'm so excited"....I'm ready to start tomorrow on June 21st. By my Birthday on July 22, 2010, I had lost 17 pounds! Needless to say I was happy to have given her 30 days and have nearly a 20 pound loss. I remember it taking me 16 weeks to earn my 10 pound pin with WW. Fast forward to the writing of this blog and I'm down 90 pounds. Blood pressure is 116/60, I've gone from a size 3X and 24 pants to a regular size M/L and size 12 pants and 56 inches gone! I am a NEW PERSON....inside and out! I am loving life every day, loving what OPTAVIA has done for me, and above all loving Keri and Andy Elliott for coming into my life. If this is a familiar story....don't stay "on the fence" thinking about it. Jump the fence and start living your life today! You have NOTHING to lose but a bunch of ugly old fat and a whole wonderful life to gain!

Well it was about 10 years ago 2010-2011) when I first set up this FB page. I was excited to be on the best weight loss journey ever. I had shed 90 pounds in about 10.5 months. Never in my life could I get beyond 20 pounds off on any program or anything I tried myself.
Well I kept this 90 pounds off a good 5+ years. Then slowly these past 5-6 years those damn pounds found me again. Not all of them thankfully but 2/3 of them did.
So, it’s taken me awhile to get my “head back in the game” .... it always does. Denial is a great place to visit but it does not serve us well and we must not live there.
Monday, Jan 4, 2021, I began my journey again. Excited because I know this program works like a charm if you work it. It is the most healthy weight loss plan you will find and if you are lucky to have landed here, you have found your dream weight loss program.
If I’ve invited you, it’s because we’ve recently had a conversation or you may have commented on my main FB page. Maybe I just invited you because I’ve seen you post something about your own struggle. In any event, this page is to help motivate, inspire, educate, and be a sounding board to any needing to let the frustration out and find a safe place to land with people who understand!
Thanks for being here!! Let’s get started on that healthy journey and kick those bad habits to the curb!
Just think, if you start today, tomorrow will be a better day!

This past weekend I'm very excited to have started 8 New people on their journey to optimal health. I've asked them to do something a little extra because success is not measured at the scale alone. If they stay diligent with doing these 2 extra little steps, it will greatly increase their success rate.
1. Take measurements.....Keep them written down and put someplace safe so not to lose them. On Labor Day, take them again. Take again on Halloween, then right before Thanksgiving and again before Christmas. Knowing they will be taking these measurements at these intervals will help to keep them motivated to continue because at each interval, they will see smaller numbers on the tape measure as well as smaller numbers weekly on the scale. This helps during these "critical" holidays to be proud of their accomplishments and not give in to all the holiday temptations!
2. Next, write down on paper or in iPhone notes so they are handy, 10 things losing weight will do to for them, and 10 things they currently have stopped doing that they once enjoyed but weight has caused a slow down or lack of desire (this is for their eyes only).
KEEP THIS HANDY! When faced with a struggle or a plateau, refer to it and know that you have a REAL purpose for doing what you are doing.....YOUR HEALTH AND LIFE!!
Work the plan, and the plan WORKS!!! I will be excited to share their successes as I hear from them. They range in age from their 20's to 70's, and range from wanting to lose 10 pounds up to 130 pounds. Obviously, the 10 will be gone before Labor Day, so this person will just want to check her progress on those dates to keep maintaining.
I truly love helping people realize it is possible to live a healthier life and rid themselves or greatly reduce medications. Can you say "passionate?" This stems from my own 90 pounds off and also the pain of losing 7 friends in a one year span due to obesity!
