Thanksgiving & Transformation
I really thought I had reached a high point going into the Thanksgiving season. I had given certain relationships over to God and decided I just had to Let them Be. Over the past couple years, certain people in my life, I felt I needed to shut them out. I closed my heart to them and was not willing to open back up. Transformation made me step back and take a look at the big picture.A few years ago, my dad was in a motorcycle acc...Food & Workout 11/18/08

I am going to try and blog my food and workouts daily for my own accountability. I have set my goal to get into my size 6 jeans by the start of the January 1st, 09 Transformation Challenge. I want to start that challenge AT my goal size so I can continue to focus more on the inner Transformation and only worry about fine tuning the outer Transformation. Priorities Baby!!

After we took my 12 week progress pictures, my husband said I really needed to get professional ones done when this 18 weeks was up. My stomach tensed up and I just thought yah, yah. I didn't realize how much the thought of that was uncomfortable. I have always felt I would look silly getting professional pics done because my changes weren't "worthy". Then I really starting thinking about it, I have 6 more weeks ...What a great couple of days!
It is amazing how rewarding hard work can be on many different levels. The past couple days have been so packed full of activity for me, my sense of accomplishment is going through the roof. My client load at work as been unusually low, so I have taken advantage and spent the time away from the shop to get things done that are long overdue. My son moving out gave us a great opportunity to get things done around the house that we...Week 10 Progress
I have to admit, this was the worst week I had since I started this Transformation as far as my physical . I am hardly ever sick, I got a head cold this week that was a doozy. Other "female" problems seriously limited my workouts. My eating was GREAT. I hope to hit it harder this week then I have so far and get myself back up to speed. My son is moving out this week which is really hard for Mom, but I am excited for him...Food - Workout Week 9 Sept.8th - 14th

I had something happen today that I think may have been a blessing in disguise.I finished up at work early so I headed home to get some things done and then join my family up north. When I got home, I decided to paint the base coat in the little toilet room of my bathroom before I left. It has to dry at least 24 hours before you apply the faux paint, so I figured I would get it done so when we get home I could get it all finished. It took a...Food, Workout & Mindset 08/29/08

Well today was another productive day! Yesterday I had a huge to do list, got all my things done, plus some.Today, I started out my day getting things checked off my to do list. My clients started to arrive. We noticed it getting very warm in the salon. (It was 107 degrees outside today.) Sure enough, one of the units had quit working. I called the guy who recently started working on my air. He came within an hour, got it fixed and we...I GET TO!!
As I awoke this morning, I started thinking about my day. Planning in my head what needed to be done. I said my morning prayer to give me the strength to tackle all that may be bad and handle all adversity that may be thrown my way. An immediate peace came over me and I became somewhat excited. I thought, now I GET TO get up and do my workout. I GET TO be unlimited by any physical conditions or health conditions that would prevent me from hitting...CinAz
