How I did it

How to I want to watch less TV.

It took me

30 days

It made me

How I did it: I began to be more selective about what I watched and to schedule my viewing time around other more significant activities. I realized that I was getting a high from watching others do things I should be doing myself.So, while I still watch Canada's Next Top Model, I also model. At 46, I went to a local modelling agency and signed up. I'm taking courses, enjoying photoshoots and walking the runway at fashion shows. This is far more enjoya… Read how I did it…

How to I want to lose another 15 lb.

It took me

120 days

It made me

Thrilled

How I did it: I made up my mind that with an extra 30 pounds on my frame, I was not aging gracefully. I love the CurvesSmart program, because it pushes me to work harder.Taking EstroSense flushed the excess estrogen out of my body and dropped my appetite to a quarter of what it had been. This helped me stick to the weight management program and reduce my consumption of food.Eating five times a day has helped to speed up my metabolism, and Curves' gradu… Read how I did it…

It took me

1 year

It made me

self-assured

How I did it: I completed the practitioner workbook case studies and took more than 32 hours of instruction.I demonstrated during my case studies the lessons I had learned in class.I did a lot of self-examination regarding my thoughts and feelings while conducting sessions to ensure that I was focused on the client and being as clear a conduit as possible.

be a figure drawing model

I also became a life drawing model 4 weeks ago

Actually, I’ve modeled for three different classes this week alone. I can do yoga and dance poses and can be immobile for an hour at a time. I agree that some poses cannot be held for long periods, so you need to really think out how you want to arrange yourself if you’re not going to move for long periods of time.

I find it to be an incredible workout, because I do hold fairly strenuous poses for 10 to 15 minutes at a time, and it also gives me time to meditate, which helps me not to think about the odd cramp.

Kudos to you for helping students by being their subject. I know the students really appreciate it. :)

I want to govern my time well.

First Step 7 months ago

I left my “part-time” job today that had really swallowed up my life. Now, I can clear the decks to focus on the tasks that are most important to me. Fortunately, I have the complete support of a loving husband in leaving this position.

I want to lose another 15 lb. (read all 3 entries…)

I'm down to 143 lb. 7 months ago

My body fat is now at 27% and I just have a bit around the middle to get rid of, which may have to come with exercise rather than more dieting, because even my size 4’s are now getting baggy in the rear end. It’s been great to finally get to a weight with which I can be happy and healthy.
