Make the decision to lose weight, get fit and stay that way. First and foremost remove “try” from your vocabulary. Whatever it takes, be determined to make it happen. The word ”try” always implies a possibility of failure. Making a decision and holding firm is the number one step to any dream, goal or aspiration.

No Magic Pill, or as my husband likes to call it “The Magic Pill Syndrome.” First, anyone wishing to lose weight, fat, blubber, and cellulite–whatever you choose to call it–realize there is no magic pill. I was on the diet roller coaster for most of my adult life, and made the decision four years ago to ask the conductor to let me off. The conductor was, of course, me. Lose weight, gain weight, lose weight, gain weight, up, down, up, down–it’s never ending. That’s the story of the magic pill or as it’s more commonly known, “Fad Diet”. It took me 50 years to accept that the “Magic Pill Syndrome” doesn’t work and will never work.
