Shoot ...they want my photo!

I heard from Kathleen today, she said they are still considering the article about featuring me and Suzanne Somers in First Magazine, but it is still in the preliminary stages.

So, keep your fingers crossed for me that her Editor is interested and it moves forward, ...oh, and if they do, she asked me about doing a Photo-shoot. How cool would that be?

Whether it does or not, I'm really flattered that she selected me to be featured, ...and toying with the idea of being in the magazine has been really fun for me.

I also wanted to share the link to FIRST Magazine with you, it's www.myfirstforwomen.com .

I'm Stepping Up my Game!

Okay, so you know how much I love working out doing my daily Weight Training, ...but I have to tell you that I have been incorporating some Stepping too.

And, with all the excitement with the magazine, I became motivated to "step up" my game. So instead of 1 set on the Stepper 2-3 times per week, ...I'm now doing 5 sets a day!

Yeah, I know, ...crazy!

It's just so addicting and I just can't help myself because it makes me feel so good!

FIRST, second, ...

I was asked to send my Before Photo and a Current Photo to Kathleen at FIRST Magazine for the article, ...I had such a hard time looking at the before photo. It really forced me to take another hard look at myself and then deal with the fact that I "was" overweight.

It's just so odd that our minds really can and do fool us, ...honestly, I never thought I was fat during that time. I knew I had gained weight, but I just avoided looking at myself in the mirror. So, when you don't face something, that old addage that it doesn't exist comes into play.

Here's to a new "me" and to no longer playing games with myself, ...now I'm facing all my fears, head on. No more hiding or avoiding the things that make me unhappy and uncomfortable. And, I have to tell you, ...I just couldn't be happier about it. It really gives you a sense of peace when you resolve your issues rather than run from them.

I wish for each and everyone of you to find peace with yourselves and the strength to face your fears.

I wanna be FIRST!

I have some exciting news to share ...

I was contacted by Kathleen Wilcox, Senior Associate Editor of First Magazine to be featured in an upcoming article about Suzanne Somers.

I am so excited, ...and I love that this is happening just as I'm starting my Christmas break, talk about motivation to stay on track during the holidays! LoL

Loving it!
