Today I climbed Oberg Mountain – my mountain. I set out early (before the tourists hit the trail) with the goal of experiencing fall peak in the Sawtooth Mountains for the very first time, and celebrating my 10-month FN anniversary and 150 lb weight loss. Read more
Wow, my heart is full. These past couple of weeks have been good ones for my program, and I am struck by how much day-to-day life has changed. In little ways and big ways. It’s difficult to describe really, but life is full and enjoyable in each and every moment. Even in the tough moments because I find myself with the tools and the courage to change course and direct myself back to the goal. And it feels so great! Read more
I just noticed the drought in blog communication and decided to take a time out to focus on Lori.
I was on vacation this past week and, as a result, the work is piled high. Read more
Wilderness hikes and mountain climbs, a skirt and a dress, new friends, Lori time EVERY morning, a porch light that is back on, a chance to pay it forward, and a fresh new optimistic outlook on life. Oh, and -130 lbs and counting! Yeah! Read more
This is not the blog I expected to write. The events of this past week have shaped a new topic that I am only beginning to explore – recognizing and grabbing hold of opportunities when they present themselves. And, they do…every day!

On Friday, June 17, the second portion of my journey to climb a mountain resumed in earnest.

So, for nearly two weeks, I eased off on the food plan and the workouts and tried to imagine life in maintenance mode. Read more
I have been thinking a lot lately about the roll external forces and the actions of other people play on my progress to climb that mountain and become the best me. Or, rather, the ways in which I allow the actions of others to influence my behavior toward my program. Read more
Today is a weekend work day and I am feeling the pressure of trying to get everything done to start anew with clients and staff demands on Monday. That said, I am putting myself first and marking a very important milestone with this blog.
AS SEEN ON/IN
My journey of personal transformation has been a quest to put myself back in the equation of my life. For me, there were mountains to climb, both literally and figuratively.
After battling a lifelong obesity problem, I learned to create time and space to nurture my health and my inner self. I pushed past fear and in the process lost 211 pounds, 47.5% body fat and 11 dress sizes in 18 months. More importantly, I gained a new perspective on life.
Today, my life is full and happy. I not only climb mountains but inspire others to do the same. Read more about my marketing agency, Marketing that Matters, or my In the Equation work here.
