Assignment #12

When the formal transformation challenge (#2) ends, this is how I will look, feel, and be.My spirit now resides in a body that is kept perfectly healthy and toned at 135 pounds through the habits of eating right & exercising six days a week.  I look 30, not 43.  I feel incredible - motivated, energized, and VITAL!  My lungs are clean and clear since giving up cigarettes and I breathe so much easier.&nbs...

Assignment #11

I was taking notes pertaining to this assignment and realized that not a single item I listed as what I really want had anything to do with body image or weight.  Every bit of it was spiritual - or at least making me a better person.I want a relationship with God, to truly know & love myself, to find my real reason for being, to LIVE - not just exist, and I want to inspire others by living authentically & hon...

Assignment #7

"Environmental changes" I've made so far that have helped me in my transformation have been stepping back from the negative people in my life and working to eliminate the clutter (both physical & mental!).One thing that is imperative for me to do is to put a stop to all the junk being brought into the house.  I don't know how else to explain to my husband that it's hindering my progress & harming us all by having it he...

Assignment #4

Looking back at the post I made back in September regarding what my Transformation Purpose was, it seems that I didn't actually define it.  In a round-about way I said I want to be a better person.  Well, that's profound.  LOL  So I am re-visiting each and every one of the assignments to actually give them the attention they deserve and have come to the conclusion that I don't actually have a single transformation purpose...

What happened?

More than a month ago I was here asking you not to count me out, yet what do I do?  I basically give up on myself.  I'm ashamed of the non-progress I've been making in my transformation and saddened by my lack of whatever it is I'm missing that would keep me on track.  It's a shame that people who don't really even know me have more faith in me than I do in myself.  I see people who started months after I did making pheno...

Don't Count Me Out!

I know I haven't been present lately, but I've been doing the work.  More internal than I've ever done before, and it has taken me away for a bit.  The time that I've been able to spend quietly working on myself has taken the form of reading, research, and internal inventory.  I had a great talk with Sharen last Saturday (love you, lady!), made some decisions, and - even though they took me a few days to implement - did the work I ...
