Why is it that sometimes you can be super motivated, productive, and focused on your goal… And then slip into apathy?  As in, you stop caring in the moment about your goal.  What’s worse is that you don’t care that you don’t care. It can be paralyzing, even mystifying.  What happened?  One minute, you are […]

Are you living your life on default or on purpose? Most of us want to feel like we have some control over our life and our future.  We understand that we get to choose and decide what we will do, but few of us are actually setting goals and crafting a plan to get where […]

So many of us don’t even know we’re doing it. We think we are just observing the facts.  Just reporting on the world around us.  We look at our situation, and we say, “It’s not fair.”  “My life is just too crazy to deal with my diabetes or weight right now.” We become the victim […]

The Problem Predictions for the number of Americans who are being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes are WAY OFF.

But, after you read this, it’s going to be really clear how these medications […]

How many of us can relate to this scenario: You are following a new plan for eating because [BY GOLLY!] you are determined to take better care of yourself.  You’ve been good.  You’ve been committed.  You’ve even been getting somewhere, and it’s about time! BUT.  At one point or another, you get an urge to […]

This topic comes straight from Corrine Crabtree, an amazing coach and mentor who helps women lose 100 lbs.  She spoke at a conference I went to recently, and I just can’t improve upon her way of explaining it.  So I’m bringing it to you intact with all her charm and class😆 We’re talking about big […]

Let’s say that you are destined to reverse your Type 2 Diabetes.  It’s guaranteed.  FREEDOM from diabetes. Imagine that for a second.  Think about this future version of yourself as real.  Imagine what their doctor’s visits are like.  What it is like to wake up every morning and skip the process of the glucometer and […]

When we are sitting around thinking about taking action, but not actually doing anything about it, we’re avoiding the decision to change because of fear. Fear that it won’t work. Fear that it will be too hard. Fear that it will suck and we’ll be miserable. So we stay stuck in confusion and overwhelm.  We […]
