My own motivation has been a little lax lately. There’s no real reason…it just happens every once in a while. You’re coasting along and every thing is hunky dory. Suddenly, you realize that you are sitting like a bump on a log, you haven’t exercised in a week and yes you did eat a whole [...]

By show of hands (and I want them raised high because I can see you. Yes I can.), how many of you are afraid to fail? How many of you that are afraid to fail, then avoid things BECAUSE you are afraid you’ll fail? Or give yourself a hard time for failing? It really hurts [...]

Yes, I’m home, and I’m so glad. Don’t get me wrong, I had a WONDERFUL time, but is it just me, or do you feel so unsure when you’re away from home? Unsure of whether you’ll be able to stick with your plan, unsure of whether you’ll be able to resist all the tempting food? [...]
