when death wakes you up!
I have been away from the online community for a week because last week I received tragic news that one of my cousins passed away unexpectedly while on vacation with her daughter.She died peacefully in her sleep, but it does not make the loss any less intense. She was a kind, gentle, lovi...

Benchpressing Peas and Prune Juice!!
Just a quick touch base - I work overnights and since I hadn't gotten an UBW in yet, I thought I would use some things in the kitchen cupboard ( I work in a group home). So there I was at 2am doing tricep kickbacks holding 2 cans of peas in my handbicep curls with a container of Prune ju

I Am
"God's gift to me is my body and mind, how I take care of it and what I do with it is my gift back to him!"
When I found T.com, there was nothing here except a shallow "I am". Now I am filling in the rest......
Initially I felt so broken inside and consumed with regrets of unfulfilled dreams. I cried myself to sleep many nights. I was going to make a video about myself but I couldn't do that either because I just cried through the words. I felt so broken then. I often had suicidal thoughts and one night took steps toward that. I didn't know who I was, or what my purpose was. All I knew was I was hurt, struggling, void, and lost.....It needed to change!
NOW, I feel so much better. Things are changing! Physical progress has been slow to this point, but there were some emotional revelations....
During my journey I have stumbled and fallen, I have watched others surpass me and become discouraged, I have often lacked discipline with my workouts and eating.
However, I have NOT given up. I am learning what my purpose is and discovering my authentic self.
I am wishing you success in your personal transformation journey, that you may lead by example for others in your daily life and in your community. Together we will all make a difference in more ways than we can imagine!!!
My Favorite Charity
It is so hard to just choose one!
To me, Transformation Means
Letting go of issues that bring me down and hold me stagnant.
A revival of my spirit!!
Becoming my best self, physically and emotionally
Expecting more of myself - no longer coasting in mediocrity
Pushing the envelope, going outside my comfort zone, to expand, learn and succeed.
Making the rest of my life, the BEST of my life!!!
My Goals
to no longer have suicidal thougths. (granted)
to let go of regrets and be proud of who I am

to fit my skinny pants by Denver! (Nope!, so re-direct for Dallas!!)
to discover my true purpose
to become my authentic self and reflect my purpose in my daily life
to strengthen my spiritual relationship and become active in a church
to eventually weigh 130 lbs ( a loss of 92lbs from when I started)

to feel and look strong and healthy
to meet Bill Phillips (granted - but no photo, I'll have to do it again!!! lol)

to become a mother (biological, foster or adopt)
to reduce clutter in my life and become more organized
to take on a greater role in the care of my sister and mother
to become more financially stable so my husband can change careers without worry
to go back to school
to follow BFL eating plan and not miss workouts
to learn more about members of the community
to become better focussed and live life with intensity, to create a sense of urgency, so that I am productive each day, rather than wasting the time given to me
My Intentions

Thanks so much for your comment! I am excited about taking on my transformation.
Thank you Heather. I think perhaps it was the Pink Nail Polish ... LOL. Billie Koeppen is responsible for that one. That was her request of me for the Make A Wish Donation she left for me. I dropped by and told her what you said and she quickly agreed that the Pink nails were the clincher ... :). All my best to you. Stay connected and let me know if I can be of any assistance.
I hope you are doing well Heather. Thia

Thank you for your nice comment on my new blog about the new Web-TV show. Our program will be on each Monday at 4:00 PM on the West Coast (7:00 PM back East) and we get started this coming Monday, April 11. We’re going to have a lot of fun with each show and have some inspiring surprise guests. We’re also going to give away some great prizes to people who join us live and also to those who share the show link on Facebook and Twitter. To watch the show, just come here to Transformation.com and click a new tab that will be in our menu bar above that says “Web-TV Show.” That new tab will be up there by next Monday. Next week I’ll tell you how to watch a rebroadcast of the show in case you miss it. Thanks again and have a great day! ~Bill Phillips
