Wow! Wow! and WOW!!!  I went to my chiro today. I have been going to him for 16 years.  The normal visit would be so painful I would jump on the table.  He would have to hold my leg down so I would not kick him.  As for getting up off the table by myself not on your life. 
Today's visit...the chrio adjusted me..the first AMAZING EVER NO PAIN.  Want to hear the wow???  I even was relaxed.  The over the top I was able to get up off the table by myself.  And I am not in the pain I normally am.  I need no ice. THANK YOU JOHNNY!!!!~Dory

Okay what the heck is wrong with this picture???????? I want chocolate cream pie, okay a Wendy milk shake. Fine I will have an Applebee's brownie.  Okay can I just have the whole half gallon of peanut butter ice cream with fudge topping.  I am trying to make out a menus plan for this next week.  Sooooo again what the heck is the problem???????  I have not had a one of those thing in over a year. So much for my menus plan for next week.  Hmmm...I need a Protein-Packed Ice Cream With Peanut Butter Cups. 

When NOW!!!!
WHAT I am out of my chocolate protein powder.

I reached it....12.2 pounds total in ten weeks.  I am thrilled.  I can not believe I lost over 10 pounds in 10 weeks.  I have this dance when people are not looking other than family.  I am like a little kid, I laugh and giggle and say woo whoo.  Me, I did it can you believe it. Then I just do it all over again.  And you guessed it I did it today after leaving the class.  I know this is silly when I do this but have been doing this dance for years.  My family finds it funny when I do this, I can't help it.   I just get so excited and when you  are excited you have to do the dance and giggle. RIGHT!!!~Dory

Saw a video of some of the people Pearla and Johnny are working with.  WOW!  And knowing I will be able to do some of the same things they are doing someday soon.  This just wows me like no tomorrow.  What amazes me even more, they did it in 6 months.  I am always shocked at the improvement people, and this includes myself, are making with Pearla and Johnny.  They help you to truly see results.  Even when you doubt yourself.  They show you where you were. And look at you now.  They focus on "YOU"  Okay ME. One step at a time!!!!!~Dory

People ask me all the time to do this or that..to help out.  I love helping others. I hardly ever say no.  But why I ask do we wait and help ourselves last.  I am putting myself first. I do not think I even know who 'myself" is very well.  She seems like a stranger to me.  Always second place. I really need to meet her and put her first.  Yes I do have a job!!! I work at the Health Club Of Making Me Healthy.  Hours are from sun up to sun down.  The pay is GREAT a longer happier life. Anyone can join this club.  And for some reason I think "Myself" will be a high priority, who for once I am saying YES too!.~Dory

Made it through the day! Actually I had fun. We ended up with about 250 people here. It was hectic at times, but had a great time. Saw myself on the news tonight - that was my 15 seconds of fame! Managed to stay on track eating and even stayed away from the donuts this morning, made my oatmeal instead - proud of that choice. One choice at a time...

While I am not a guacamole fan, I thought I would pass along this healthy tip I just heard from the "Healthy Girl" cooking show.
When making your guacamole dip, cut the avocado amount in half and use blended peas. The mashed peas don't change the taste, but change the fat content. Then mix with greek yogurt, garlic and whatever else you like in your dip.
Have a great Sunday everyone!!

It feels great!! - Ron

Tonight I went to a party my friend was throwing for his daughter.  I was worried about what I might eat. 
My wife suggested I try to wear my jeans.  The last time I tried to wear them was at Christmas and I could not button them.
To my surprise the jeans not only buttoned easily but they were not tight at all.  On top of that the belt I wore was too loose and needed another notch put in.  That was all the strength I needed to eat properly at the party and drink water instead of soda.  Thanks Pearla and Johnny for helping me lose over 20 pounds in 6 weeks.

Been on a good eating path today. Tough schedule today so I really had to plan and prepare. I am a little light on the water……sitting in meetings all day is tough when you can’t hit the bathroom as much as needed so I am about ½ gal behind. Day by day……….I have been just trying to make each day better than the last and hope for the desired outcome. See everyone tomorrow.

Hello Everyone,
Yes, i have been conspicuously absent from the blog scene. I have been lacking in my personal motivation lately for an unknown reason but I am determined to get back on track. Laura, Tracy and Kayla, I would like to say that your hard work is paying off and you all look amazing. That goes for both Pearla and Johnny and I have never met someone with the will power of both of you. It is a wonderful day so I think I will go to Hampton Beach tonight, workout my elbow with some long island ice teas and consider how to get back on track next week. Have a great week end everyone.

Laura you are not alone. Last night we talked about getting back on track, I think most of us are in the boat with you. But, I think we will be back on track soon. I know I have been getting better, don't like my pants tightening up, just a little but I don't want it to get out if hand. Started yoga this week, felt so good to stretch, I think this is a piece I have been missing. Now to just get that cardio up to a few more days. I am going away next week, I am going to use that time to make a few weeks of food plans so when I get home I will have a plan to get going in the right direction. Have a great night!

THINK THIS GUY HAS IT ALL COVERED.
I COULDN'T SPOT ANYTHING HE LEFT OUT.

I am a White, Conservative, Tax-Paying, American Veteran, Gun Owning Biker. That�s me!
I am a Master Mason. I work hard and long hours with my hands to earn a living.

I believe in God and the freedom of religion, but I don't push it on others.
I ride Harley Davidson Motorcycles, and drive American-made cars, and I believe in American products and buy them whenever I can.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and not some liberal governmental functionary, Democratic or Republican, that wants to share it with others who don't work!

I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!

I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer; it makes you a smart American.

I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything. Get over it!

I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac or any other item, you should do it in English.

I believe there should be no other language option.

I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to.

My heroes are Malcolm Forbes, Bill Gates, John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and Willie G. Davidson, who makes the awesome Harley Davidson Motorcycles.

I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.

I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time watching or arguing about it.

I've never owned a slave, nor was I a slave. I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks, and neither have you!

I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go back to where you came from and change your own country!

This is AMERICA ....We like it the way it is and more so the way it was ...so stop trying to change it to look like Russia or China , or some other socialist country!

If you were born here and don't like it... you are free to move to any Socialist country that will have you. I believe it is time to really clean house, starting with the White House, the seat of our biggest problems.

I want to know which church is it, exactly, where the Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches, where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution?

Can I get an AMEN on that one?

I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you're breaking the law, regardless of what color you are, but not just because you happen to ride a bike.

And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my driver's license. I think it's good....
And I'm proud that 'God' is written on my money..

I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in the world for the next four years.

I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to their cause.... Get a job and do your part to support yourself and your family!

I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents....

I believe 'illegal' is illegal no matter what the lawyers think!

I believe the American flag should be the only one allowed in AMERICA !

If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.

If you are a BAD American too, please forward this to everyone you know....

We want our country back!

My Country..... I hope this offends all illegal aliens.

My great, great, great, great grandfather watched and bled as his friends died in the Revolution & the War of 1812.
My great, great, great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Mexican American War.
My great, great grandfather watched as his friends & brothers died in the Civil War.
My great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Spanish-American War.
My grandfather watched as his friends died in WW I.
My father watched as his friends died in WW II.

I watched as my friends died in Vietnam , Panama & Desert Storm.
My son watched & bled as his friends died in Afghanistan and Iraq .
None of them died for the Mexican Flag.
Everyone died for the American flag.

Texas high school students raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole, other students took it down. Guess who was expelled...the students who took it down.

California high school students were sent home on Cinco de Mayo, because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.

Enough is enough

This message needs to be viewed by every American; and every American needs to stand up for America .

We've bent over to appease the America-haters long enough. I'm taking a stand.

I'm standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the American flag.

If you agree, stand up with me. If you disagree, please let me know.
I will gladly remove you from my e-mail list.

And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message.

AMERICANS, stop giving away Your RIGHTS !

Let me make this clear! THIS IS MY COUNTRY !

This statement DOES NOT mean I'm against immigration !

YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY, welcome to come legally:

1. Get a sponsor !

2. Learn the LANGUAGE, as immigrants have in the past !

3. Live by OUR rules !

4. Get a job !

5. Pay YOUR Taxes !

6. No Social Security until you have earned it and Paid for it !

7. NOW find a place to lay your head !

If you don't want to forward this for fear of offending someone, then YOU'RE PART OF THE PROBLEM !

We've gone so far the other way . . . bent over backwards not to offend anyone.

Only AMERICANS seems to care when American Citizens are being offended !

WAKE UP America ! ! !

If you do not Pass this on, may your fingers cramp !

Made in the U S A &  PROUD OF IT!!!!!

Henry - Tuesday

Imagine that you had won the following prize in a contest: Each morning your bank would deposit $86,400.00 in your private account for your use.

However, this prize has rules, just as any game has certain rules.

The first set of rules would be:

Everything that you didn't spend during each day would be taken away from you.
You may not simply transfer money into some other account.
You may only spend it.
Each morning upon awakening, the bank opens your account with another $86,400.00 for that day.

The second set of rules:

The bank can end the game without warning; at any time it can say, Its over,the game is over! It can close the account and you will not receive a new one.
What would you personally do?


You would buy anything and everything you wanted right? Not only for yourself, but for all people you love, right? Even for people you don't know, because you couldn't possibly spend it all on yourself, right? You would try to spend every cent, and use it all, right?


ACTUALLY This GAME is REALITY!

Each of us is in possession of such a magical bank. We just can't seem to see it.

The MAGICAL BANK is TIME!

Each morning we awaken to receive 86,400 seconds as a gift of life, and when we go to sleep at night, any remaining time is NOT credited to us.


What we haven't lived up that day is forever lost.

Yesterday is forever gone.

Each morning the account is refilled, but the bank can dissolve your account at any time....WITHOUT WARNING.

SO, what will YOU do with your 86,400 seconds?

Those seconds are worth so much more than the same amount in dollars.

Think about that, and always think of this:
Enjoy every second of your life, because time races by so much quicker than you think.
So take care of yourself, be Happy, Love Deeply and enjoy life!

Here's wishing you a wonderful and beautiful day.

Start spending.

Monday ~ Laura

Hate Mondays!!  I am on track though today.  Will be going out to eat tonight but made a point that it has to be someplace I can eat healthy.  I hear ya' Tracy on the cardio.  That is the hardest for me to push myself on.  It is, for me, the hardest part of any workout I do.  I keep vowing to make it more of a focus…….some days better than others.

Feeling very tired today. I didn't sleep very well last night and my leg
workout this morning was great, but it tired me out! Will be going to bed
early tonight. Feeling pretty good though, eating has been good, drinking
my water, blogging, cardio is a little lacking, but getting there. All in
all I feel great! Have a great Monday.

Gotta love the second day after a leg workout.....ouch. I have added Faro to my new foods supply. Good cold, warm or even for breakfast. Add chicken, spinach, fruit, the additions and options are endless. Easy to eat on the fly food and easy to prepare. Have a strong second half to the weekend everyone!

Friday ~ Laura

Today is a good day!  Feeling motivated to go home and sweat!!  Definitely need to increase my cardio each week.  Went out to lunch at work and got my favorite cucumber salad and added a veggie burger for protein.  Feeling good. As we all mentioned this last week, time to tighten it up. I know for me, it is easy to get bogged down with the BS and not include my needs.  I am going to try to change that and make my workouts, food needs, water, schedule a priority.  My assistant at work will be blocking off my training times so I can't be scheduled for anything else that will conflict. I think that is a great first step!!!  Have a strong weekend everyone!

Well, it was a great trip to Maine.  Took my friend Nadia and her little one Lexi.   All of a sudden I found myself embracing the joy of simply chatting with my deer friend without the pressure of what time it was, what I should be doing, absolutely no pressure! 

Lesson learned (again):  Take time for YOU with no guilt, enjoy all of the pleasures in life that is presented to you.  Appreciate every tiny second spent with those you care about as you never know when they'll come around again. 
MAKE TIME FOR FRIENDS, THEY ARE THE FAMILY WE CHOOSE!

Have a great weekend,

Laura, that pizza sounds great!
I'm re-committing to myself that I will have 3 perfect days Mon, Tues, Wed.  This weekend things were ok, but far from perfect.  I need to stay focused on my goal.  Tighten things up a bit.  Almost boat season and what is a few weeks of being super strict to have the result that I want.

Sunday - Laura

I saw an interesting new idea for "pizza" on the Healthy Girl cooking show today. She used egg plant slices, and pepper slices (roasted first) as the "crust" for healthy pizza. As the peppers got softer, you unroll for a flatter and longer bottom. You add healthy toppings and grill or bake. Yum. Definitely something I will try.

Happy Saturday Everyone! ~ Pearla

Well, Looking forward to a very productive working weekend.  Just not enough time in a day, but I'm not letting it get the best of me.  I think that I need to revisit my work schedule and re-organize my time management.  I'm feeling as though I never get a day off.  All the time I'm at one of Kortney's games of practices my head is thinking....I could be doing this...I could be doing that, and I know this non-scense has to stop.  It's the way I get when I feel the pressure of to much on my plate.  Thought it might put things into perspective if I blogged about it. 

I can hear you all saying...take a break, go enjoy Kortney's game today.  So that is what I will do. 
Thank you, All of you~

TGIF!!! Today I feel HUGE. Some days I have noise in my head celebrating each lost pound, the tighter muscles and better food choices. Today is not that day. Today I am hyper aware of how far away I am from where I want to be. Today is one of those days I am fighting wanting to eat a bag of M+M's. The old me would. Today's me is going to workout. HARD. Thank you Johnny for asking me why I would sabotage myself the last time I ate crazy for days. I hear it each time I get frustrated, pissed, tired, whatever.....and want to give up.

Something I just read that I would like to share with you… Change Begins with Choice by Jim Rohn
Any day we wish, we can discipline ourselves to change it all. Any day we wish, we can open the book that will open our mind to new knowledge. Any day we wish, we can start a new activity. Any day we wish, we can start the process of life change. We can do it immediately, or next week, or next month, or next year.

We can also do nothing. We can pretend rather than perform. And if the idea of having to change ourselves makes us uncomfortable, we can remain as we are. We can choose rest over labor, entertainment over education, delusion over truth, and doubt over confidence. The choices are ours to make. But while we curse the effect, we continue to nourish the cause. As Shakespeare uniquely observed, “The fault is not in the stars, but in ourselves.” We created our circumstances by our past choices. We have both the ability and the responsibility to make better choices beginning today. Those who are in search of the good life do not need more answers or more time to think things over to reach better conclusions. They need the truth. They need the whole truth. And they need nothing but the truth.

We cannot allow our errors in judgment, repeated every day, to lead us down the wrong path. We must keep coming back to those basics that make the biggest difference in how our life works out. And then we must make the very choices that will bring life, happiness and joy into our daily lives.

And if I may be so bold to offer my last piece of advice for someone seeking and needing to make changes in their life: If you don’t like how things are, change it! You’re not a tree. You have the ability to totally transform every area in your life. And it all begins with your very own power of choice.

Today has been a good day. I bought a dress almost 3 weeks ago for an event on Sat. Never tried it on. Looked at it since, lamenting "what was I thinking, this will NOT fit". Decided I better bite the bullet and try it on so I could go to plan B. (Return and retry). Well, it FIT!!! So, plan B became a visit to the health food store (gonna try fiddleheads tomorrow). Sometimes, we gotta give ourselves more credit. A few sizes smaller than what was in my closet and I looked great in it!!!

Let us know how Dukes visit with the Vet went.  I wonder if he doesn't have an allergy to something he is eating that is keeping this skin irritation going?  Fish oil pills works wonders for my "Tucker".  I have been so on with my eating that I am finally feeling like I am kicking the bad effects from my hiatus last week.  Wow, what a toll that took physically.  (and I didn't even drink……)  Keep it going everyone.

I was thinking today about where I want to be and how much more weight I want to loose. I decided I would learn to embrace the positive changes I have made and make those daily smart choices be my focus. Not the scale.

It's okay Kayla, I HATE MONDAY'S also.  Yesterday was a sucky day and I missed some meals and didn't get all my water in, and had to cancel my workout.  It will be my pass day.  I planned well, got everything ready to go, just ended up in a meeting for almost 4hrs when I planned on 15-30 minutes.  Today, I'm back on track and that is what ultimately matters.  Each day is still a work in progress.  It ALWAYS will be.  In the business I am in, temptations, crazy schedules and crazy people are always in MY SPACE looking for a piece of me and trying to get you on board the reckless, crazy train.  I have had some of those days and will have more. (I won't lie, some of those trips have been crazy, reckless FUN!)  This is about the long term and I WILL win that battle.  One day at a time.  Thank you Henry, I needed to laugh and yesterdays blog was light and perfect. Finding clothes that fit again that didn't before is inspiring, congrats Tracy!  See everyone tomorrow…….

Friendship ~ None of that Sissy Shit

Are you tired of those sissy 'friendship' poems that always sound good, but never actually come close to reality?

Well, here is a series of promises that actually speak of true friendship.

You will see no cute little smiley faces on this ~
Just the stone cold truth of our great friendship.

1.. When you are sad ~
I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.

2. When you are blue ~
I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.

3 When you smile ~
I will know you are thinking of something that I would probably want to be involved in.

4. When you are scared ~
I will rag on you about it every chance I get until you're NOT.

5. When you are worried ~
I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining.

6. When you are confused ~
I will try to use only little words.

7.. When you are sick ~
Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever you have.

8. When you fall ~
I will laugh at your clumsy ass, but I'll help you up.

9. This is my oath .....
I pledge it to the end. 'Why?' you may ask ~ because you are my friend.

Friendship is like peeing your pants, everyone can see it, but only you
can feel the true warmth.


Send this to
10 of your closest friends (including the one who sent it to you).

Then get depressed because you can only think of 4.
