WOW! Almost 5 ton - can you imagine. Now, that probably doesn't sound like much to someone who has been lifting weights for a long time and is strong and healthy, but for me, a person who hasn't done much exercise ever, that is a lot! And you know what, I can see it in my body, even in this short period of time. I can see the muscles forming in my arms, the saggy upper arms are firming up, my stomach is firming up and I am so pleased.
Another thing that has occurred, much to her dismay, I am now taking my little (not as little as she should be) Min-Pin, She-Ra out for a walk every morning. I have let her get overweight and she is not nearly as active as she used to be. When I come home from my workout each morning, I wake her up, put her harness on her and take her for a walk. She just looks at me with those big, sad eyes that say "Why ME?" and then reluctanly starts walking. We only go for about a block now, but I am increasing the distance just a little each day until we can go several blocks. Now, for someone who really isn't an advocate of exercise, I am doing well, don't you think?
Today I am putting the finishing touches on my third session of my trial e-course. The subject is a continuation of last week's Self-Image. I hope everyone is getting as much out of it as I am. Even though I have given this a lot of thought and have been working on my own self-image for a while, it is different when I plan to give the information in a comprehensive form to others - trying to convey my feelings and my experiences in a way that they can learn from- it is a great learning tool for me. I have learned more in these last few weeks of putting this course together than I ever thought I could - and in some areas, more than I learned by practicing the principles. I now know what is meant by "you can learn by teaching."
I am also working on my articles so they can be published. I wrote several articles for a friend who was going to start a magazine for women - unfortunately that project didn't get off the ground, but I still have the articles and I am rewriting them for publication. I have been doing a lot of research to learn just what needs to be done to get the word out in the "internet" public about my passion, "Weight Management" and it is a lot - but it is coming along. Soon I will get the hang of it and you will be hearing about me from several sources. I told you how technologically challenged I am - well, I still am. During my last teleconference call, I forgot to call the number that would allow me to record the session, so I had to do the entire session again, without the live interaction. I am now sitting down and spending no less than 15 minutes a day saying over and over again "Pay attention to the details", "Pay attention to the details", Pay attention to the details." And this is paying off, because I now find myself stopping before I start anything and say "Pay attention to the details" and I find that I am not redoing everything two or three times. What a wonderful thing the mind is, huh?
Guess I'll quit for now and get busy on my articles and my new e-book which will be made available to anyone who asks for it by the end of the month. Talk at ya later,
