You’ll also find nutritional information, including tasty, healthy recipes, and a whole lot about how it all can affect anti aging.

Here’s Something That May Surprise You About Weight Control & Body Mind Health

It may come as a surprise to some of you, and maybe the story is a bit personal, but bear with me; I do have a point . . . would you believe me if I told you I have never had an issue with weight control my entire life?

I know it may sound strange that I haven’t got a story to share about my former heavy days, or my ‘before and after’ pictures to show how I used to look.

Yes I workout, but I am by no means an athlete. Back when I was a busy young mom of two, my workout routines were inconsistent at best, and my eating habits not much to brag about.

To this day I don’t struggle with eating healthy. Fact is, I really eat quite a lot. I eat as soon as I get up in the morning, breakfast, a complete lunch, dinner and several snacks in between. Seriously! The thing is, my meals are not even very special low-calorie meals either (which I recommend sometimes during my consults). So I was wondering…

Could Weight Control and Anti aging Health Be In My Genes?

Maybe. My Dad died in his mid 80′s, and had remained strong and healthy until his late 70′s. One of my sisters though has struggled with diabetes early on in her life, and some of my aunts and uncles weren’t exactly thin, so I doubt that my “good” genes are the main reason I had managed to escape the battle of the bulge.

Here’s What Set In Motion My Fitness For Life

I programmed my subconscious brain at the age of 11 to keep my body slim, though I didn’t realize it then, or even years later.

The Story…

One day as I was walking up the hill from my house on the way to school, I took a look around and saw a couple of ‘older’ women (remember, I was 11) and I said to myself: “I will not get fat when I grow up!” and as I kept walking up and then down the hill, I kept repeating to myself, “No matter what happens, or how many kids I have, married or not, I’m not going to get fat”!

I Wired It Into My Subconscious Brain

I laugh now remembering how much passion and determination I put into my desire . . . what does an eleven year-old girl know about weight problems? I am convinced though that the power of my subconscious mind took care of the rest. I set myself up for a healthy lifestyle.
