It takes time to develop the mindset, habits, skills, and character strengths to lower weight (and keep it off), and your success involves much more than a simple formula of diet and exercise. Emotional well-being, healthy, positive thought patterns, and overcoming self-defeating beliefs are part of the process.
I know this from my own personal experience (having lost a large amount of weight years ago) and a career in the field of healthy weight management that spans 40 years.
It truly has been a journey of self-discovery, and I am thankful for what I am able to easily do today because of the level of strength and fitness gained from a lifetime of healthy living that began with losing 87 lbs. Today, I travel, swim, dive, hike, and continue to work with passion, and in very good health.
​
I invite you to your own Journey of Self-Discovery. It requires commitment and effort on your part as well as mine. I promise you it will be Inspirational and Fun!

Down a Decade (or 10)
Anne has Reached Her Goal with On-Line Coaching.
She's Over 100lbs Down and Wearing Smaller Sizes
Down a Decade!
That's what Anne calls it, with each 10 lbs. down the scale.
She is 10+ decades down (in less than a year) and at her healthiest weight.
Having fun on the journey was important for her, so we built in healthier versions of the foods she enjoys (sweets).
Now retired, Anne knew she had to reduce weight in order to continue her passion for travel and diving. She remains focused on her target with staying power through weekly coaching sessions and is committed to Finishing. Her vision:
​
Travel
Diving
Adventure
Ease of Mobility
