Another note-worthy book on the bedside pile that I got to finish last week was Rework by Jason Fried and David Hansson. It’s a collection of essays around business and productivity.
The page I dog-eared included this quote:
“When you are high on...
My body is doing a great job of fighting off a cold.
I’ve helped by taking it very easy this week.
That meant one thing—time to devote to finishing the books piled up on my bedside table.
Being in the middle of several books at once is...
This week marks a milestone.
It’s the first time, since we moved over 2 years ago, that I parked my car in the garage.
Yay!
I (finally) spent the long weekend opening, moving, tossing, recycling, donating, organizing and placing all the things that...
If someone asked me to name what I teach in one word, the answer might surprise you.
It’s not “Maintenance” or “Prevention” or even “Weight Loss” (ok, that’s two words).
What I ultimately teach is Compassion.

My wish for you and your family is a New Year filled with health, love and especially laughter!
Back next week with some Insights to Keep the Pounds Away in 2018 . . .

This time of year always reminds me of a story:
There was a wise, kind King, beloved by his subjects, who was about to retire.
(OK, so when I first heard this in the late 1970’s, the King wanted to marry off his daughter to the suitor of his choice. I’ve tweaked...
It’s gift-giving season. And I have a confession to make.
I’m a terrible gift giver.
I was born this way.
I’m just not the best shopper. If it can’t be found on Amazon, I’m not finding it.
I’m ecstatic when...
How did your Thanksgiving go?
I know for many of you, planning worked—congratulations! You discovered that it’s possible to have a meaningful, memorable time without regretting food choices.
Nice job.
For the rest of us—we can love...
Just a quickie this Thanksgiving to say I am grateful for you, your friendship and following.
May you and your whole family enjoy health, happiness and peace this season and always.
And laughter too . . .
(couldn't find the clever creator's name--thank you, Funny!)
I leave...
. . . many things—family, warmth, love, friends, gratitude, service and food.
But it’s just one meal.
