Slaying the Easter Bunny

I was in a grocery store last week buying some berries and salmon. They were the only items I came for. I have put week after week of good nutrition together and was so happy to go through the store without ever traveling to the inside isles where all the processed stuff is. But as I turned the corner to go to the checkout....there he was....The Easter Bunny... It really wasn't the Eater Bunny, it was a lot of Easter Bunnies. The Chocolate o...

Saying Goodbye to Me.

 Something MichelleT said in the opening of her video struck me as so profound. I have been thinking about it a lot here lately. She talked about the incredible strength that the old fat Michelle had to hold it all together long enough for the person who was in there to come out. The new Michelle had emerged from the old Michelle indeed. I can't tell you how right she is. Take a look at the guy here above. It's me when I was around 400 ...

With Friends Like This Who Needs Enemies

This morning I was preparing a Right Light Shake for breakfast. My wife looked over and made a face of disgust and sais "I don't know how you drink that stuff". I made the mistake of allowing her to drink one of my other protein shakes that I once drank. Yes they were terrible, but I drank them anyway. She has no idea how good these tastes and will not try them. Oh well. But I will say one thing she wants me healthy. She still is my bes...

Liar Liar Pants on Fire

I hate being lied to. Well does anyone enjoy being lied to? No we don't. Lies are everywhere. Enviromental wackos say the Earth is warming and will soon burn up. 10 years ago they were warning of a new ice age. The new Vice President...what's his name? Oh yea "Don't mess with Joe" Biden was responding to Bobby Jindal and said that Louisiana was losing 400 jos a day in the empoloyment numbers. Sorry Joe I'm gonna mess with you here. Loui...

Drop the Other Shoe

Yesterday I was in a meeting with my boss and co-workers. As we were leaving my boss said the words that make a lot of people shiver these days.."Dusty, I need to see you before you leave". Those old feelings of fear gripped me. I could feel my gut twisting and it seemed like my self-worth had just walked out the door. As I waited on my boss to finish talking with some of the salespeople I tried to regain my composure. Why did I have to...

The Gospel of God

Since I was a small child I wanted to be connected with God. I suppose those desires came from a combination of wanting a life where I felt love instead of abuse and Grandparents who took me to Church where I heard Bible stories about the greatness of God. I know that I would not be as far in my Transformation with out my connection to God. I accepted the Gospel of God.  I spent a large chunk of my life studying religions. I have studied New...

Finding True Passion

I am a passionate guy. Not all the things I have been passionate for have been any more than things I personally wanted. Even as a very young guy I had a passion for things like model airplanes and racecars. I got old enough (well almost old enough) to drink and I became passionate about booze. Thank God for bad hangovers that ended that passion almost 29 years ago…  I then got passionate about motorcycles until a few hard crashes on ...

The Beautiful Soul

 I've been thinking a lot about life and the people who surround me. There are so many different people in the way they act and interact with others. As I get older I see my old self in a lot of people, both my good side and my not so good side. Seeing all of this, I want to strive to be a Beautiful Soul...I decided to compile a little list of attributes that I see people possessing. These are some things I see myself doing also, just maybe ...

The Risk and Reward of Letting go.

I remember when i was a young man...14-15 years old I guess, I went on a fishing trip with a family in Colorado. I taught myself to fly fish and with my own money bought all of my equipment. I had a rod, flies, chest waders and one of those fly fishing hats. I was decked out and spent all my savings from my paper route to go on this trip. Really as a kid I put all I owned into being a trout fisherman.Colorado was beautiful and I bought my fishing...

Observing Fear

I'm a watcher of people. I like to talk a lot but I also like to just sit and observe people in everyday settings. I like to see how people respond to what life brings at them. I can tell you that without a doubt the most gut wrenching thing you will ever see is someone gripped with fear. I am not talking about healthy fear. I am talking about the all consuming fear of living...It is said that without faith it is impossible to please God. Fear is...

The Rest of the Story

I was thrilled to get to talk to Michelle last night on Transformation Radio. She is such an inspiration to me. I have had the honor of meeting her in person 4 times now and it is so good to hear her voice...And to talk to Bill...wow that was so cool. This place he created has probably extended my life by 10 years already. My health has improved so much since I have been on plan. I was honored to speak to him also.Now for the rest of the sto...

Healthy Participating at T.com

I spend a lot of time online here at T.com. I remain responsible in all the other areas of my life like job and family. As a matter of fact my wife sees how much T.com brings joy and love into her life because I participate here in blogs, forums and helping others succeed. I am fortunate that I have a job that allows me to be next to a PC almost all day long while I do paperwork and deal with customers.So what about you? Balancing T.com with your...

Guilt Free Eating

I once had a problem that haunted me on a daily basis. It was guilt of eating something that was not good for me. That one bite of "forbidden" food sent me into a tailspin that would end up with a binge for a day, a week and sometimes up to a month. The problem was that I had let the guilt of eating what I thought was bad and allowed that guilt to prod me onto a binge where I gave up...Heck in my opinion I thought "Oh well the day ...

Stress Busting Plan

As some of you know I am on the road again living in a cheap hotel that my company supplied me for the next month. We are all under a ton of stress because we are behind our goal for sales. The bosses are pressing everyone to sell,sell,sell. They think putting extra stress on people makes them sell better...Kinda dumb but you put up wth it.The thing I see is that the other sales people handle stress in ways I used to handle it. They eat...And the...

Shiney new Growth

Well I am leaving back on the road again. Back to a month of living in a crackerbox hotel room, away from my family, my gym and my trainer. I should do better than I did last trip simply because it is only 1 month not 5 months and I have learned a lot about myself since last year. I am aware of the things that trigger me to go off plan. I have some shiney new growth to help me.Habits are hard to break. I have made some good habits in the last cou...

In Awe of God

I drove out to the Lake this morning and went for a walk away from the lights of our little town. It was cool and crisp and clear. I looked towards the Heavens and my mouth opened in awe of what God had laid before me for my eyes to see. Yes I was in awe of Him.My life started out so wierd. I was born in a terrible dust storm. I believe to this day that I still have the dust from my birth day lodged in my lungs. I still think the storm was an war...

Finding the Future You

Bill brought to mind something last night when he was talking about the future vision we create for our minds to start embracing and living towards. I look in the mirror and I still see an overweight guy. I am being real about where I am in my Transformation, but for the life of me I have a hard time remembering the man I used to be.I was once very very big. At almost 400 pounds I can tell you that you that you don't look in the mirror ...

Body of Life...

I am not a man who lives his life in fear of others. I am totally unafraid to touch the third rail when it comes to discussing issues. I gladly point out the Elephant in the room that everyone else is willing to ignore. I not only will point out the elephant, I will put a pink hat on it's head and sit in it's lap until I get everyone's attention... I get in hot water from time to time...really so what. It's just hot water. Well I have been d...
