WAIST REMOVAL HELP WANTED
Friday July 14, 2017

Struggling with sagging flesh ribbon (or maybe I swallowed a cummerbund) around my middle – remnant of my pear-shape flopped-over belts for too many years …

Can’t find any resource which provides a solution. If I needed a tree dug up I’d go to Craig’s List, if wanted something sold I’d go to Kijiji or eBay. Hey universe, how (short of surgery) do I get rid of this?

True, I’m struggling less.

But still struggling.

Being healthier – obviously: lower blood pressure, lower resting heart rate, more robust exercise, longer better deeper sleep, feeling better, weight loss

Those elements feel more like ‘really interesting byproducts’. Other things, becoming ‘real deal’ of this: clarity of mind, commitment to purpose, to focus, to what matters most …

Sharper focus, clearer priority setting, smarter-moves – directly related to sleep, quality of diet and exercise. Not making more money, but perhaps more per hour. Making more life – doing more/better in less time. Otherwise there wouldn’t be more time for R&R, sleep, etc. …

Significant weight yet to lose. ‘Quick-pace easy pounds stage’ is done; entered ‘slower-paced picking off a pound here and there’ stage. Resolved to carry momentum and message of my lessons forward, spread the news around. Doubting cookbook, diet book, exercise book or DIY markets have room for more offerings – my message fits more than one, ‘fits all’ under that broader umbrella: ‘changing your life – don’t call a pro, do it yourself’ genre …

Meanwhile, on path to next milestone, sticking to daily ritual, reminding myself of John (founder & CEO of Whole Foods Market) Mackey’ words: “If hunger isn’t the problem, then eating isn’t the solution.”
