First Cleanse of 2010

Am almost through my first cleanse day of 2010. It feels really good to be on track again. Next up, hiking on a regular basis!

Happy New You!

Here's to walking the path to health and wellness in 2010 ... personally I'm starting on January 2nd with a cleanse day!

Happy New Year!

Blue Moon ...

A Blue Moon occurs when there's two full moons in one month ... this one is quite rare ... a blue moon on New Year's Eve. A perfect time for making wishes and new beginnings.

The first reference to a 'blue moon' came in 1528, when the Oxford English Dictionary cited the phrase 'if the say the moon is blue, then we must believe it's true." It wasn't until the 19th century that 'once in a blue moon' became a popular phrase -- meaning rarely or highly unusual.

I have a feeling 2010 will be a rare year indeed. A year of change. A year of success. And, Fates willing, a year of prosperity and good health.

What are you wishing for this blue moon? Hope the magic sweeps you away and makes your hopes and dreams come true!

Say Yes to a New You!

"After the final no, there comes a yes, and on that yes the future of [your] world depends." Wallace Stevens

I've been at this for more than 40 days and I've lost about 15 pounds. That kind of pace will not help me win the Isabody Challenge. Time to step it up. Holidays are almost over, I've said my final no. No to being unhealthy. No to be overweight. No to dying slowly of heart disease or diabetes or cancer or whatever may come from an unhealthy lifestyle.

Now I'm saying 'yes' - yes to healthy living, yes to Isagenix nutritional cleansing, yes to proper nutrition and yes to releasing the more than 50 pounds I set out to. On this my world depends.

Here's wishing all of you a 2010 that's out of this world!

Science of Christmas

Came across this Einstein Santa and it reminded me of the words a trainer friend of mine once told me.

Weight loss is science. Pure and simple. Less calories in, more calories out and you'll lose weight. But to do it properly, you need the right nutrition.

That's what I'm craving after the last few days of holiday celebration. Of food, drinks, parties, desserts ... little bits add up.

So today I found myself craving Isagenix. Pure and simple. I just had a shake and I feel much better.

Tonight I'm off to see Avatar (in 3-D, yay!) with my friend Poppy. We've already got our strategy mapped out to avoid tempting theater snacks!

Santa Stopped By ...

Santa stopped by and enjoyed his Isagenix treats ... he left me this ... apparently he's a big fan of summer water sports!

Hope everyone has a super day today! Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to All

And what to my wondering eyes should appear, a jolly fat man and eight tiny reindeer ...

And he said out loud as he flew out of sight, Merry Christmas to all, thanks for the IsaDelight!
