And all through the crib,

None of us is moving,

In fact we’re still wearing our bib.

We had a feast for queens and kings,

A personal buffet we laid out,

We ate til full,

Burped and ate some more,

Then loaded our Tupperware,

And went on our way.

We rode home sprawled out,

Too stuffed to move,

Belts unbuckled and shoe laces loose,

Definitely not in our cheery groove.

Feet already swollen,

And those new clothes definitely not loose.

We waddled through our door,

Went straight to the kitchen,

We popped open that microwave,

And to our dismay ate another rendition,

All laid out on the counter,

A sight to see,

Another personal buffet just for me,

Well Jesus is great,

And because of the way we ate,

We fell to our knees,

Thank God for Alka-Seltzer and no more cheese..

Well it is almost 2012,

We look back in awe,

The food we consumed,

How did we eat it all.

Thank our God for Bootcamp,

And our coaches we see.,

For they love us so much,

They had foresight to see,

That health is an issue,

Overeating a tradition,

Extra weight a burden.

That something had to be done.

So in true love for all,

A Bootcamp was planted,

There all of us to attend,

To retrieve the health that was lost,

That personal buffet that was served,

We must now pay the cost.

So onward ladies,

Sisters, mothers and brides,

For health is a blessing and an honor to God,

With camp activities, tabatas and the like,

The women boot camps, hundreds do like,

Push-ups and weights, jump ropes and tires,

Whatever it takes to get fit and perspire.

So get off your rears,

Get to a camp,

And make this year,

A year to remember,

Your fittest and healthiest,

And remember my dears,

It’s all about choices and options,

In health just as careers,

So next Christmas as you eat,

Make a smarter choice,

And in fairy tales we reserve,

The story of gluttony feasts.

yourself. You had your day of infamy as being

able to ingest more food than humanly thought

possible.

You had your fun. You ate, burped, ate some more.

Your feet are swollen,

you are taking alka seltzer,

and you are promising that you will never eat like

this again.

You are mad for all the work you have done over the

3 months to lose weight are down the drain as

you wipe the whipped cream off your chin.

Well, don’t dispair, my friend.

Actually if you have been dieting and exercising hard

for a time this day could have actually helped you lose

weight!

WHAT??

Yes, by overloading your body on a day considered a cheat

meal, you can actually jump start your metabolsim and burn

more calories that you did the day before the feast.

So if you follow my diet guidlines and do what I know works,

those of you had the green light to cast care to the wind,

and in the words of my wife–”eat like a flippin pig”!

For those wishing to get those diet guidlines so they can

finish the year losing some weight you can join the women

in Michigan Women Boot Camps and we will show

you how you can “eat like a flippin pig” and actually

lose fat.

The ladies at Michigan Women Bootcamps just enjoyed Thanksgiving

with their families and friends without reservation or guilt and

are on track to drop more fat before the New Years.

Just look at the seasonal shelves in your favorite store. Retailers like to call it ‘holiday season’ but let’s be more accurate.

Weight Gain season begins now and runs straight through New Year’s…and it all started with those isles Of Candy for Halloween!

The next two months will bring ample opportunity for you to expand your waistline. Of course the choice is yours.

Why discuss it now and not mid way through December?
Because now is your opportunity to plan for the weeks ahead. Once the craziness begins, you’ll be too busy to put a plan into action.

So let’s take this moment of clarity, this calm before the storm, to outline a two-part plan that will save your waist from unwanted holiday inches.

1) Part One: Your Exercise Plan.

Exercise is the first thing people cut when they get busy, and the holiday season is notorious for empty gyms.

This year do something different—obligate yourself to exercise. Promising to yourself won’t do it, you need to promise to others so that you won’t drop the ball.

Sign up to work with a fitness expert – This is the perfect solution for consistent, challenging and effective workouts.
They can give you the attention and assistance that you need to power through the holidays in better shape than ever – talk about motivating!

Join a Exercise Program – You won’t be as effective exercising on your own during the busy holiday season, so join a class for accountability.
Find something challenging that gets your heart rate elevated and uses strength training.

Get a serious exercise buddy – Some friends can be an awesome help while others end up pulling you down.

When looking for an exercise buddy consider the following questions:
- Do they share your fitness goals?
- Are they fairly encouraging?
- Do they give up easily?
- Are they at your fitness level?

2) Part Two: Your Diet Plan.
The holidays offer ample opportunities to indulge, so you need to hammer down some guidelines before hitting that buffet line.

I’m not saying that you shouldn’t indulge in any seasonal treats, but use moderation.
Don’t use the holidays as an excuse to eat until the point of being uncomfortable – will you really miss that bloated feeling?
Decide which treats to cut out this year.

-Don’t bring edible treats to the office or to parties. You know that the leftovers will come home and you’ll end up eating far more than your share. This year do everyone a favor by not gifting fattening treats.

-When faced with a buffet line, load your plate first with greens, vegetables and lean meats before breads and heavier foods. Also drink water with your meal and keep alcoholic beverages to a 2-drink maximum.

-Beware of holiday drinks – most are brimming with calories. Hot drinks from coffee shops, cocktails at parties and creamy eggnog are all very enjoyable and all filled with empty calories. Stick with hot tea or unsweetened coffee.

-Everywhere you go during the holiday season brings you face-to-face with a plate of sweets. To avoid being a bore but without adding inches to your waist, try the one treat rule. Each time you’re in a social situation that involves sweets just eat one, and enjoy your treat slowly.

You don’t have to gain weight this holiday season. The key is your mindset.

If you approach the holidays with the mindset of, ‘I deserve to indulge and I shouldn’t have to exercise’ then you’ll enter 2012 a few pounds heavier, a little less healthy, and with lower energy than ever before.

I believe that you deserve better. I believe that you should enter 2012 in better shape than you are today, healthier than you’ve been in a long time, and with more energy than you thought possible.

I’m here to help –  I’d love to help you keep those holiday pounds off your body over the weeks to come at our Michigan Women Boot camps.

could see them you would know why we take our profession so serious. Man, people trust us with

their lives. This isn’t a game, or a part time gig. This is what we are called to do and are so honored

and humbled that God uses us to touch people’s lives. If you don’t get choked up reading this you

need to check your pulse. This is why Brenda and I sleep so well at night.

“I just wanted you to know how much better I feel about myself since I started coming to workout

in the morning with Brenda and Jennifer. She asked me the first week if I was having fun and I was

thinking hell no, but after I gave it some real thought, it is fun.  I leave there feeling like I did the right thing,

soaking wet, but I can breath more deeply than I have in a long time. Brenda is so positive and always smiling

and very kind and helpful and motivating and just wonderful. Jennifer is very sweet and considerate and

caring when I need help. I still don’t know what I’m doing yet but I want to come and I know this is where

I need to be.

My daughter and nieces were signing up and I started asking questions and because I am 62, I would say

“I can’t”, then the next sentence was “yes I can, then “no I can’t” and after about 1 week of praying about it,

and asking God to give me courage, I decided that “I can do what I can”. I was thinking that I weigh 320 lbs

and I was getting bigger than I have ever been.

I joined RFA, (Recovery from food addiction) it’s 12 step group for food addicts and I learned how to eat

and gave up sugar flour & wheat but I would still relapse and  over eat and it’s just been a vicious cycle.

My daughter was talking about changing her life and asked me if I would like to go with her. I thought

this was perfect, I am with someone that I love and cares about me and we could do this together and

my nieces were encouraging me. It was just such a God thing I get goose bumps thinking about it.

Then I was worried about putting it on my credit card and was asking if I could pay cash and I know I

spend that much on junk and I was going to do it no matter what. But Monday morning I got this email

at work from my daughter and my children had gotten together and I have 6 of them and the each are

making 2 payments (one for my birthday present and one for my Christmas present), so they are paying

for the year worth of me coming. So I will be there if I wake up and just wanted to let you know how

excited I am and sore I am and I have never gone to bed this early in my life.”

Nice to meet you, Louise (Weezie)

Not your expected subject from the Premier Fat Loss Expert—but I have some

issues I have to get off my chest. Yes–my 58 inch, shirt stretching chest.

My wife runs a very, very caring dog rescue. Better Life Canine Center. She

rescues, medically treats, trains, nurtures, and places these dogs with families

that are looking for a family addition. 99% of the time the adopters are vetted great–

that 1% ticks me off. You know the family that lives out of state so they can’t take

advantage of the FREE ongoing training BLCC gives to all adopted dogs through

their program. So these people adopted a dog 6 months ago, it was obedience

trained as all are before being placed. It had anxiety issues after it was placed when

someone came to the door. No biggie, get a trainer get it fixed right. Noooo…

these people just let it go for 5 months until the dog in an high anxiety mode bit a visitor

on the hand. No attack, goodness- a stressed anxious reaction. So my wife gets a call and they

have prayed (yea right) on it and they have to return the dog. Yes, take the dog out of

it’s new home with the 4 kids that love it and bring it back because it would take some

effort on their part to make the dog not react at the door in a stressed out way.

BLCC offered to pay for the training! Yep. BLCC offered to drive 3 hours on the weekend

and help them! Yep. But no these great dog lovers brought him back and now he will

be rotated in and out of a crate until a new home is found for him. Kiss my rear. Man up.

Losers, weinies, frogs–whatever. Then they claim to be this great Christian family–hey

don’t pull that card on me I am an Elder of DWO and we don’t play Christianity we live it.

A REAL Christian is diligent, seeks counsel, and asks for guidance–not turn their back on

what they are to take care of. So, my opinion of these folks is not too high on the richter

scale. Right above , well I won’t say. So if anyone is looking for a great dog contact

BLLC and ask about the dogs they have for adoption–but don’t be a weinie or I will

write about you next. Also go to their site and click the button and become a monthly

sponsor for an awesome group. Tax deductible.

Another thing–I want to run some people off the road when it snows here. Yes I repented

already.

It snows and they don’t clean their windows, mirrors, lights, tail lights. Just turn on the wipers

and bend over and peer through the opening and could care less about any one else. I guess

once they shut their car door they feel like they are in their own little world. Yea they are–

dumbsville. 2,800 tow truck calls in one day here. I’d venture to say many were peering out

their little opening from their wipers. Man up and wipe your flippin’ car down.

Okay time to be Fat Loss Expert again. Whew, sorry about the rants.

And this brings me to those who say it is hard to lose weight, get fit, live a great life.

MAN UP. If it was no issue I wouldn’t have a career.  Was it hard eating that quarter pounder

and biggie fries? Was it hard eating that bag of chips watching my Steelers lose? Was it hard

lapping down that bowl of ice cream? Come on man—control that flesh and live the life you

are supposed to live. You ladies in Metro Detroit area get into Michigan’s Premier Women Boot Camps.

You can join the most complete program that guarantees you results. Will you need to

change some things-yes. Will it be hard sometimes -yes. Will it be worth it – YES! Will you get all

the tools, help, support, guidance, love and kick in the rear when needed? Yes.

Times up, I have to go settle down and relax and repent for my ill will towards others.

Repent yes, forgive yes, forget –not a chance.

This is after people ask “How do I lose this fat?”

Well here is a list of the items we purchase when we

go shopping for groceries.

Now we don’t buy all of

this at one time, we buy what we will use for the WEEK.

Important note–for the week. This means we have a

menu wrote out for the week and will not have foods

go bad–or have extra food in the house to cause over eating!

Can you say – Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance.

So without further delay here you go:

Chicken breast (skinless)  

Lean fish (orange roughy)  

Salmon (wild)

Lean ground sirloin (5%fat, Laura brand)

Canned albacore tuna in water

Omega 3 eggs (cage free)

Non-fat or low fat plain yogurt   

Non-fat or low fat cottage cheese

100% Whey protein powder

Brown rice   

Sweet potato  

Oatmeal (rolled oat in canister)

Oat Bran cereal   

Raw Nuts (almond, walnut, cashews)

Prunes   

Oranges

Apples  

Seasonal fruit

Spinach ( fresh)

Green Veggies

Fresh veggies (romaine, salad stuff)

Garlic cloves, onions, hot peppers (spice for dish’s)

Stevia (natural sweetener, can get in packets)

Soy sauce (naturally brewed, has no msg added)

Black pepper, variety of seasonings, (be aware of too much salt and msg additives, also hydrogenated fats)

There you have it. Most of you if you really look at what you

eat will see that you have 2-3 constant breakfast food, 2-3 lunch foods,

and again 3-4 dinner foods. People always say I get bored of this

or that. No–you just want those cookies and pies!!

Put this list to use, write out a menu for the week,

and use that menu to shop with a purpose in mind

and not just wander into the store and walk out with

foods you had no intentions or desire to buy or have

in your house.

I hope this helps empower you in your quest for god

health and a lean body.

Yes, Saturday night  just as things were heating up Brenda

came home expectingly. I was sweating, and working it.

Yep, the ground sirloin was browning in the pan, the refried

beans were heating up on the stove, and I was sweating from the

habenaro salsa! Yes, it was my cheat meal for the week.

Homemade burrittos, refried beans, and chips and salsa.

You are in total shock. Well Brenda wasn’t.

You ask-”What is my fat loss expert eating like this for?”.

You see as you go on a calorie and carbohydrate restictive

diet to lose body fat the body will go into a mode of self

preservation if you will.

Our ancestors didn’t know when their next meal would be so

the body had a mechanism where it would slow down the metabolism,

stop producing leptin (a hormone that allows your body to use

fat for energy) all to protect you against starvation.

So as I diet 6 days a week, I will have my cheat meal on Saturday

night to stoke up my metabolism for the folowing week so I can

burn more fat for energy.

So I  put off all those pyschcological cravings for a week and

I can have them on a meal once a week.I said meal, not day.

Also this is not a liscense to over eat and binge like a truly

starving person. But do eat more than you allow yourself during

the week. Your body will respond by turning up the heat and burn

more calories for you as you get back on your dieat for the

next 6 days. And doing this will help you put off eating what

you shouldn’t as you know if you just wait until your cheat meal

you can have that little extra you are craving. helps keep you

on track, both mentally and physically.

So, like I said Brenda caught me cheating, but she actually

helped prepare my meal.

Oh and desert was great!

This is my friend and client Richard. 7 months and 115 pounds less fat. Where have you gone in the last 7 months?

Nothing else needs to be said.

Just do it.

Period.

Questions?

Dr. Lederman preformed the surgery and I do recommend him. He said he cleaned
out a ton of debris, bone spurs, and some other stuff. Said I have space between
my bones now, but severe arthritis (bummer). Well actually his words were I had
the knee of an 89 year old who didn’t take care of himself. Well I said praise God
for keeping me walking this long.

So he feels with the space in there now we can inject some fluid in there to give me
a cushion in the joint. Temporary fix, but hey let’s try that and put off the total
joint replacement as long as we can!!!

I received so many well wishes and prayers from all over that it truly was a humbling
experience. Very emotional for me to have touched so many people in so many places
that they would take the time to send me a message of prayer of well wishes.
This made the surgery go so easy for me. I was in the pre-op room just humming and
smiling and praising God. I know I am doing what I was called to do–help others get
their lives and health in order.

A bright note, as I looked forward to the surgery I felt it was finally a step forward and
I dropped 12 pounds in the 10 days after scheduling it! Yep, lifted some depression off
me and got my mind focused on moving forward. The pain I was experiencing wasn’t
just physical, it was emotional also. I was very limited in what I could do the last 2 years
and that played on my mind as my body is my business (or so I thought). Well like I
said after scheduling the surgery I felt a stress relief and knew I was taking a step
forward and my mind shifted gears and I put my eating plan in order and off came the
weight.

So like the title says PAIN- can cause problems, emotional pain and the such. So find
what is paining you–dig deep–and cut that off at the root and take that step forward
and I guarantee you will be able to move forward just like me.

Yep. July 19th I have my official consultation to set up with the Dr. to have him
replace my knee joint and give me back a quality of life I have been lacking for
some time.

Now I have put this off for 1 reason—
Fear. Fear of having my leg cut in half and have a fake joint put in. Every one
is so happy that I am finally doing this. Easy for them, I’m the one getting the
surgery.

Fear of actually finally getting this done, fear of being put under, fear of it
not turning out right, fear of being off work too long and financially not being
able to sustain paying our bills.

For me getting this surgery is like many people putting off what they know they
need to do to get healthy. They know they need to eat healthier and also start
an exercise program. And like my new knee this has to be a life long decision.

You see a healthy fit life isn’t a 6 week program, it isn’t trying to eat right, and
it isn’t going to give it a shot. It is adapting a new life style and making adjust-
ments along the way.

Many are afraid of change. Many are scarred of success. When they do achieve
that fat loss and drop 3 sizes they are scared of people expecting to see them
fail and blow back up which is the scenario for many.

Well just like me if you want to succeed you have to put your business out there
so you know people are watching. Now here is the mindset you have to have once
you take that leap and put your business out there for every one to see. You have
to know there is no turning back and you will succeed-no ifs, ands, or buts-period!

So I challenge you to let your friends know what you are doing, you will quickly find
out who your real friends are. If they encourage you great, if they ask why you know
you’ll just gain the weight back or you won’t stick with the exercise-get some new
friends.

Like me, you need support and encouragement. You need people in your corner to
help you take that turn in the road where there is no tuning back. This is it, you
have made the decision and it’s time to move forward.

So as I embark on having my knee replaced and getting my life back I encourage
you to get on the road to a healthier you.

I am here for you and many others are also. So time to get going and to never
be where you are today again.

I will keep you posted on my surgery and will document my recovery and progress.
I will take pictures and also post those. Why? Because by doing so I am being
accountable to thousands. I suggest you do the same and draw a line in the
sand and find yourself some accountability partners to help you on your journey.
