Overweight is simply a physical signal of imbalance.

It’s a call to assess and adjust and reconnect with your unique and most essential higher values.

It doesn’t mean that you are unhappy, necessarily.

It doesn’t mean that you are unproductive, necessarily.

It doesn’t mean that you are not a good person.

It just means that on some level, in some way, you are (more…)

Don’t diet.

Diets require willpower. Diets imply “temporary.” Diets deprive.

(And diets deprave. I say that with only the tiniest tip of tongue in cheek. I’ve DONE diets. I know about diets.)

Diets don’t work.

You already know how to lose 40 pounds. (But not in three weeks!) And how to keep it off.

We all do.

The missing ingredient, when we are overweight, is finding and maintaining the life-loving mindset and self-esteem that allows that to happen without any seeming effort. Without struggle.

You MUST do this without struggle if you are to succeed.

And you know how to do that, too, because you’ve done it before. (If not with weight, then with some other challenge that you’ve completely conquered to the point that you can’t even imagine how you could have ever been a “victim” of it. Where your enthusiasm and excitement and belief in a completely different set of behaviors and beliefs completely supplanted the old, self-destructive ones.)

How did you do it then?

First examine values, thinking, behaviors that are limiting you, weighing you down, and discover a time when those were not there, were not important, were not in control
