I've come to the conclusion that Erin Postle is one of my favourite people. She's a former high school counsellor who became a weight loss coach, nearly bankrupted her family, then went on to achieve health and wealth with Isagenix. I've had the good fortune to talk with her quite a few times and I … Continue reading Summer Body Shaker with Erin!
All Things are Possible – Susan Sly on Triumphing over Multiple Sclerosis
The other day, my friend sent me an interview with a woman named Susan Sly. I loved it, and I hope you will, too. Susan is one of the highest paid women in network marketing, which means she is highly ambitious and energetic, as all successful entrepreneurs must be. A less-known fact is that she … Continue reading All Things are Possible – Susan Sly on Triumphing over Multiple Sclerosis

30 Day Challenge: Sleep
Last night I did something I haven't done in decades. I crawled into bed, read Facebook for a few minutes, turned off the light, and woke up again over eight hours later. I'd actually reset the sleep goal on my Jawbone UP from 8 hours to 7 because I had completely despaired of ever achieving … Continue reading 30 Day Challenge: Sleep
Fangirling over a Poet
Today I got to fangirl over a poet. I've added a link to the definition in case you were unaware that was a verb in the English language. I doubt said poet would approve, actually ... I will add that I did not squeal, scream or grab onto her leg. I had the pleasure of … Continue reading Fangirling over a Poet
30 Day Challenge: Second Cleanse Day
Well, the second cleanse day of this thirty-day challenge came and went without much fanfare. I was remarkably hungry in the morning, probably because I'm still struggling with my carbs-at-night habit, sigh. But I did OK with my Cleanse for Life and lots of water, largely thanks to my friend Sarah Khan, who has started … Continue reading 30 Day Challenge: Second Cleanse Day
30 Day Challenge: Reflections on Week One
So, it's been seven days since I started this challenge. I've had a cleanse day and a Shabbat, a kettlebell class and lots of walking. Ups and downs. First of all, a report on numbers. My weight went down fractionally, just under a kilogram (about two pounds). Clearly still in the noise. My measurements (which … Continue reading 30 Day Challenge: Reflections on Week One
30 Day Challenge: The Empire Strikes Back
Well, it wouldn't be a story without some setbacks, would it? You would quickly get bored if all I did was sing the triumphs of my experiment here. This bag of peppermint tea was my absolutely best friend yesterday. I did survive the cleanse on Tuesday quite happily. I will admit, however, that as I … Continue reading 30 Day Challenge: The Empire Strikes Back
30 Day Challenge: I Survived the Cleanse Day!
I did it! I survived an entire day on very little more than Cleanse for Life, water and chocolate. I was not particularly hungry. I even went for an hour-long walk! For anyone who is suspicious of this cleanse as being a diuretic, a laxative or worse, I can report that I am not the … Continue reading 30 Day Challenge: I Survived the Cleanse Day!
30 Day Challenge: 2 Shake Days In
So, I've had the first two days of my 30 day challenge. They were both shake days, meaning that I replaced two of my meals (breakfast and lunch) with shakes. For snacks and dinner, I had nuts, fish and veggies, just as I would have on the SCD diet. I jazzed up the bland shakes … Continue reading 30 Day Challenge: 2 Shake Days In
