The Best Fat Loss Resources For 2008

There certainly seems to be an endless supply of diet and workout programs and many other products that promise you the secrets to weight loss. I refuse to bombard you with promotions for all the latest and greatest sales and limited time offers, or the latest and greatest program to come out. I’ve actually turned down a dozen people this week who wanted me to promote their products for them. I’m only recommending the core products that I personally use and have been using for a while with great success. These are what I believe to be the best fat loss products on the market from my own personal experience. And believe me, I’ve tried a whole lot of products.

Unstoppable Fat Loss
www.UnstoppableFatLoss.com

The 21 powerfully motivating and inspiring interviews teach you how to develop an ‘Unstoppable’ mindset to ensure that you achieve your fat loss goals. It’s what separates the people who achieve fat loss success from those who continue to struggle to lose weight. This is the perfect compliment to any diet or exercise program that you are following.

Tom Venuto’s Burn The Fat Inner Circle
www.UnstoppableFatLoss.com/BFFMICspecial

For $1 you get instant access to a full month trial of this incredible support community which is loaded with information packed articles and audios covering the most up to date fat loss information. Tom is my fitness role model and mentor and has the highest integrity of anyone I know. This is the place to be if you want to surround yourself with the top 5% of the population who are succeeding with their fat loss goals.

The Every Other Day Diet Plan
www.EveryOtherDayDietPlan.com

This is the diet program that both Angie and I have been following for a few months now and we absolutely love. No longer do you need to count calories or feel deprived when it comes to your nutrition plan. With The Every Other Day Diet Plan you can enjoy your favorite foods and still burn fat. I lost 10 pounds of fat (not to be mistaken with weight), during my first month on the program and Angie’s abs became cut and defined. Trust me, this program works! It’s easy to follow and includes recipes and simple guidelines.

The Fit Chic
www.TheFitChic.com

This is a full year of workouts for women on the go with over 100 pages of motivational material to give you the drive to succeed with your fat loss goals. It includes a year of 20 minute workouts as well as the year of 10 minute Fit Chic Fat Loss Express Home Workouts. It includes pictures and descriptions, online videos of the workouts, support community and your own personal blog to hold you accountable.

The Fit Bastard
www.TheFitBastard.com

This is a full year of workouts for men with over 100 pages of motivational material to give you the drive to succeed with your fat loss goals. It includes a year of 20 minute workouts as well as some longer workouts for those guys that like to spend 30 to 45 minutes in the gym. It includes pictures and descriptions, online videos of the workouts, support community and your own personal blog to hold you accountable.

Optimindzation
www.UnstoppableFatLoss.com/optimindzation

I listen to audios from this series every single day. It’s pure isochronic tones that really enhance your brainwave activity. Stephen Pierce calls it “Brainwave Entertainment”. There’s no music. I just play it while I’m at my computer, in the car, during my workouts, or before bed. You don’t even notice that it’s playing.

Here’s an example of some of the audios in this 12 mp3 series; Creative Focus & Innovative Mind, Extraordinary Energy & Mental Caffeine, Physical Power & Athletic “Zone”, Immune System Maximizer, Absolute Stress Relief & Anxiety Reduction, Amazing Sleep & Insomnia Help, Relaxation Mastery.

The Truth About 6 Pack Abs
www.6packtruth.com

Mike Geary’s program will definitely help you achieve 6 pack abs and you may be surprised when you see that the book is not just filled with abdominal exercises. Like me, Mike believes in training your entire body to develop a lean and tight waistline. Every 3 months I like to use Mike’s program for a month to mix up my routine and shock my body in some unique ways.

This is the hottest abdominal training product on the market for a great reason. It works!

Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle
www.BurnOffTheFat.com

This was the very first ebook that I ever purchased and one of the greatest decision that I have ever made. I followed Tom’s diet advice in Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle for over 4 years with incredible success. Truly this is my nutrition bible. It’s very detailed and does recommend that you count calories at least for a little while in order to get a good idea of how much food you are actually consuming. I may not be following it at this very moment, but I apply the principles every single day.

The Magic 100
www.magic100goals.com

I first started using Dax Moy’s program 1 year ago and I absolutely love it. Every 100 days I’m setting 100 new goals to achieve and I watch them become a reality… kind of like magic. I’ve read the book and listened to the audio recording of the book several times and apply the daily lessons that he provides us with on a very regular basis.

I’ll be sharing my next Magic 100 goals with you soon and look forward to achieving them and seeing you achieve yours throughout 2008.

Attraction Accelerator
www.UnstoppableFatLoss.com/attractionaccelerator

Attraction Accelerator includes 2 mp3 that use the same isochronic tones contained in Stephen Pierce’s Optimindzation with the exception that these 2 mp3 contain music. You can’t even hear the isochronic tones. One audio contains very upbeat music that pumps me up prior to my workout or first thing in the morning. The other audio contains relaxing music to listen to before bed and enhances your visualization process as you think about your goals.

OK, so that’s it. Those are the products that I use all the time and they are what I have found to be the very best fat loss products on the market. You don’t need to confuse yourself with other products on the market. This ones work for me and they work for many others and they can work for you.

As you can see, it’s a combination of things that work for me. I listen to Unstoppable Fat Loss, Optimindzation, Attraction Accelerator, and Magic 100 to develop a powerful mindset. I follow The Every Other Day Diet, have followed Burn The Fat Feed The muscle and still apply those principles when it comes to my nutrition. I follow The Fit Bastard Year Of Workouts for my weight training and high and low intensity cardio, and I mix in Truth About 6 Pack Abs for my workouts as well. And I participate in the Burn The Fat Inner Circle to gain support accountability and to read and listen to the most up to date fat loss information.

Together they are a wickedly powerful combination.

I hope that this has been of help to you and that it’s cut through some of the confusion or frustration of overwhelm with all the products out there. Remember these are not just products that I’m recommending. They are products that I use all the time and have experienced great success with them.

Education has been a big part of my success. Continue to educate yourself with useful and powerful information and watch your body and life transform.

I’m here to serve you to the best of my ability. Please let me know all the ways that I can be of help to you.

Have an absolutely amazing day!

Scott’s Fat Loss Journal-Diet, Exercise, & Motivation-Jan 3rd

I’m getting ready to head out on a cruise tomorrow with Angie and the kids along with a bunch of other friends. I can’t wait. I’m not at my goal body fat percentage that I wanted to be for this trip, but I’m still pretty darn happy. In the situation that I’m in leading up to this trip, I know a lot of other people would be starving themselves right now and spending hours in the gym trying to burn as many calories and lose as much weight as possible before they leave. Not me…
The Fit Bastard
I simply stuck to my nutrition and workout routine. I’m not one for crash dieting or over training in order to get results. I do things that I’m going to stick with. Yesterday I worked out on Chest and Back and today I worked out on Biceps and Triceps. They were my scheduled training sessions from The Fit Bastard Year Of Workouts. Tomorrow is my scheduled day off which is perfect because we will be spending it on the plane and in transit.

I didn’t do any cardio at all yesterday because I played hockey in the evening. Today I woke up and went for a brisk walk on an empty stomach. So nothing extreme here. I’m eating what is laid out in The Every Other Day Diet Plan for today. I’m not reducing the calories any further and I’m not eating like a rabbit all day long either.

I received an email today from someone who read one of my recent posts on perfection and fat loss. They said, “It sounds like you are just trying to appeal to the average Joe who doesn’t want to workout.”

When I say that you don’t have to be perfect, I don’t mean that you don’t have to eat natural and nutritious meals or workout. Far from it. The more consistent you are with your training and healthy eating, the better results you will get. But you don’t have to be perfect every day.

There are people out there that believe that you have to eat perfect every day and workout 7 days a week 52 weeks out of the year. These are the same people who are plagued with injuries, are fatigued, get sick a lot, and are generally unhappy even though they may be somewhat thin. Does that sound perfect to you?

Then there are many people that I’ve seen who eat incredibly well and workout consistently for 4 to 6 weeks and then have a terrible day of eating and because they weren’t perfect they say to themselves, “Here I go again. I always seem to sabotage myself.” That’s not sabotage. That’s life. Give yourself some breathing room. We’re not striving for perfection because it doesn’t exist.

But you do have to workout and eat well consistently if you want results. Now I love exercise. I’m a confessed fitness nut. But I know that the majority of people out there are not. If that means that I’m trying to appeal to the average Joe than that’s fine with me. But I’ve got to tell you, I’ve seen a lot of average Joe’s and Jane’s transform their bodies into something pretty frickin amazing and they didn’t have to be perfect to achieve those results.

Having been a personal fitness trainer for over a decade I have come to understand that most people ‘hate’ working out. There are even some clients that tell me this before every single workout. And they curse me while I’m beating them up with the intense workout. So why do they do it if they hate it?

For one, they love how they feel afterwards when the workout is done and they love how their body and life has changed as a result. Second is the support and accountability. I show up at their house to train them. They value my time and I make sure they stick to the program. I also offer loads of support and am there to help them at a moments notice.

So I do understand that most people don’t enjoy working out all that much and the thing that turns people off from sticking to their program is that they believe it’s a lot harder than it actually is. You don’t have to workout every day and you don’t have to eat perfect every day.

I also know what it takes to drive a person to do something that they previously did not enjoy. Although many of my clients may not enjoy working out, I certainly know what it takes to get them to do it and stick to it.

If you want to achieve fat loss success in 2008 you are going to need to include all of these components into your program; Mindset & Motivation Training, Support & Accountability, Healthy Nutrition Plan, A Variety Of Weight Training Methods, and A Variety Of Cardio Methods.

When I was on my brisk walk today, I was listening to the high energy incredible content interview that I did with Kevin Gianni for the Unstoppable Fat Loss program. He mentioned how at one point he was working out like crazy and still was gaining weight and put on fat. It didn’t take him long to pin point his problem. His nutrition sucked. So it just goes to show that you can work your butt off and not get the results that you desire. Don’t try just to do one or two of the components that I listed above. Include them all.

I want you to do 3 things today that will bring you closer to your fat loss goals. I don’t care how small they are. One could be to just go out and purchase a notebook to use as a journal. It’s time for you to continually take steps forward and look towards your bright future.

Have a totally amazing day!

Scott’s Fat Loss Journal-Diet, Exercise, & Motivation-Jan 1st

I’m kicking off the New Year on a great note for my fat loss journey. I’ve eaten extremely well, got in a workout, did some cardio, listened to some motivational audios, and have set some great goals. My main goal is to get my message across that you don’t have to strive to be perfect on your workout and nutrition program in order to achieve great results. 2008 is the year where we ditch the goal of perfection and just aim for becoming the best that we can be and doing the best that we can do.
The Fit Bastard
After all that’s what it’s all about. Do the best that you can possibly do. When you workout, give it all that you got. Take a look at your schedule and lifestyle, follow a nutrition plan that works with your lifestyle, and do the best that you can to stick to it.

I’m not giving you a reason to slack off here because that’s not being the best that you can be. If you have time on the weekend to prepare several meals for your upcoming week and put them in freezer bags and Tupperware containers but you choose to sit in front of the television instead, is not the best that you can be.

Just do the best that you can do, have fun, and don’t stress out about the minor details. Don’t try to eat perfect every single day for every meal. don’t try to workout every day to make up for lost time. Don’t feel guilty if you slip up and experience a setback.

The main lesson is to try to become just a little bit better each and every day. It’s time for you to grow as a person and be the best that you can be and that doesn’t equal perfection. It just equals the perfect you. That includes all your flaws and short comings with your goals and expectations. Just be you. The best you that you could possibly be.

I’m not really one for New Years Resolutions. They aren’t really goals to me. They are more of a statement that’s pretty much meaningless. But this time of year offers a great opportunity to set solid goals for yourself and go out and achieve them. I’ll be sharing my goals with you in the next few days.

So what did I do to bring me closer to my fat loss goals today? I woke up and went for an awesome brisk walk on an empty stomach. This felt great. It was snowing out and I felt refreshed.

During my walk I was listening to the Unstoppable Fat Loss interview that I did with James Villepigue. Man his story is inspiring. He was very open and honest about his life and how he just loved food as a young kid and couldn’t get enough of it. His family was the same way.

James shared many stories about how his life was affected by his weight. You can just hear the emotion in his voice.

Later on in life he thought that the answer to his obesity problem was to binge on unhealthy foods then purge. He would follow that up with a healthy meal and he thought that he was doing an good thing.

James went from obese, to bulimic before he found the way. He began educating himself like crazy on health and fitness and today he is in phenomenal shape, is the author of many published fitness books, has made an appearance on Regis and Kelly, and so much more.

He’s just an average guy like many of you, who has turned his entire life around because he put his health as his #1 priority. His healthy lifestyle has attributed to all the successes that he’s experiencing in life.

Man this interview fired me up. I then came home and ate a giant bowl of blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and a banana. It was awesome! I’m doing great on the Every Other Day Diet today. I’ve eaten all natural foods today and it feels great. I’ve had a boat load of veggies, some chicken, eggs, and salad.

I wrapped up the last workout in this 4 week program of The Fit Bastard Year Of Workouts. Today I worked out on shoulders and abs. I’ve got a couple workouts to get in before we leave for a cruise on Friday and I plan on working out while on the ship.

I can’t wait to document my journey while on a cruise and show you that you can go away, have fun, eat well, indulge in some treats, and still come home for a trip like this with less fat than before you left.

I don’t understand why people automatically assume that they will gain weight when they go away and they simply succumb to this supposed fact. It doesn’t have to be this way. Having fun does not mean that you have to abuse your body. Eating well and exercising does not mean that you have to deprive yourself.

The healthy lifestyle is fun. There’s nothing depriving about it at all. In fact you become much more abundant when you live this way.

Set your goals and make your plans. Don’t try to be perfect and make up for any setbacks that may have occurred in 2007. Do not over train.

Lets make this the best year ever!

A Success To Celebrate

It’s time to celebrate a fat loss success from one of our fellow readers. This is going to become one of my favorite components of my blogs, (Celebrating Successes), because it’s real people achieving real results. All the small success are worth celebrating. I can’t express the satisfaction when I receive emails from readers like you who share a recent win with me. It’s incredibly exciting.

This story and success gets me totally revved up. It’s because of the impact that it’s had on Sheryl’s entire life. I can feel that she’s a new person now. The person that she deserves to be. This is what it’s all about. It’s not what the scale number tells you.

Read Sheryl’s inspiring story, give her a high five, and go out there and create a win for us all to celebrate on this blog and build the momentum to make 2008 and beyond, the best times of your life.

Here’s Sheryl’s success:

Hey Scott,

I was that girl – you know, the chronic dieter, the one that wings it with regard to exercise, the one that is just not happy with herself.

I would be short with people, small things would get to me, my tolerance was not high. In fact, I was grumpy!

I was grumpy because I was hungry, I was grumpy because I was tired, I was grumpy because I was down on myself all the time.

Now Scott, you’ll notice I say was… This is because that was before. Before I found you (via your web site), before I started setting goals, before I started thinking positively, before I learned from you that I DON’T HAVE TO BE PERFECT! Wow, the pressure that lifted once I realized that.

Scott, I’m a determined gal, but I’ve learned from you, that unless you have a positive mindset and a positive direction, all the determination in the world is going to run out at some stage.

I read your blogs and have downloaded some of your audios onto my mp3 player ( including the short clips from Unstoppable Fat Loss series) and listen to these almost every day at work. You and your guests are inspiring and motavating and I just can’t wait to finish work so I can get my butt out of there and get moving.

I am now getting up earlier and walking to and home from work (20min at a brisk pace each way) and starting out on your fat burning workouts for women on the go and HIIT sessions – and enjoying doing all this for my body!

And people are noticing. I have been getting compliments on how good I look, and its not from a body transformation (early days on that front), its from my more positive attitude and outlook on life, my whole demeanor, the way I hold myself, my now quickness to smile.

You know what my boyfriend said to me the other day…He said “Sheryl, you don’t frown so much as you used to” Hows that! I think that pretty much sums it up. I feel so much happier within myself. Definitely on the right track.

Thank you Scott. And thanks to Angie too. She is my inspiration. She is a similar build to me and a whole lot busier -(with 2 kids and a hyper husband!). Seeing her in such great shape shows me that I can do it too.

So once again, a huge thanks Scott and Angie. You guys rock!

Mind and spirit positive and healthy, body will be following along very shortly….

Cheers
Sheryl

Way to go Sheryl. I’m so incredibly proud of you and I know that this is just the beginning for you. There are many more successes of yours that we will be celebrating.

Thank you so much for sharing your story. I can guarantee that through your actions and words, you will inspire many others out there and you should be proud that you are helping make a difference in this world.

Keep up the great work. I’m here to help every way that I can.

Scott’s Fat Loss Journal-Diet, Exercise, & Motivation-Holdiay Edition

The holidays are officially over and unlike the majority of the worlds population who put on at least 5 pounds, I actually burned off 1/2 a pound of fat. This may not be a significant amount of fat loss, but considering it was the holidays it’s actually quite remarkable. And just wait until you hear the obstacles and challenges that I’ve been faced with…
The Fit Bastard
I had the weirdest thing happen to me on Sunday December 23. Prior to heading out for our first holiday feast at Angie’s sister’s house I decided to get in an intense leg workout. I felt great, got through my warm up, completed my first set and was totally energized and jazzed.

Then near the end of my second set of Squats I sneezed during the movement. How freaky is that. I immediately cramped up in my lower back, butt, obliques, and hip flexors. This was the most bizarre feeling that I’ve ever experienced. I through the weight on the rack and fell to the ground to try to stretch out the spasm.

I knew that was the end of the workout for me and I went right home and through some ice packs on myself, warmed up a bit and then stretched. It’s been over a week now and there’s finally just a minor lingering pain that lets me know what happened.

Actually this setback has caused me to get into and enjoy the stretching component of my fitness program. I’ve become more aware of my body and the tightness in certain muscles.

In addition to not being able to workout until yesterday I came down with a serious sinus infection on Christmas Eve. Dinner at my parents was like listening to an orchestra of sneezing, coughing, and nose blowing. My entire family and most of Angie’s family were all sick. Actually most of our city was sick from what I’ve heard.

It sucked not being able to stick to my workout program when we’ve got our cruise coming up in the next couple of days, but I’ve been back at it 2 days in a row and I feel great.

As far as my nutrition plan goes, I definitely indulged in some chocolate on that Sunday afternoon after cramping up. It was a bit of a comfort thing and that was a planned cheat meal anyway. Christmas dinner was actually a breeze. I mean, turkey, potatoes, salad, veggies, and a glass of red wine is just about as good a meal as you could ask for. I very rarely drink alcohol, but it was Christmas.

For dessert my mom makes a wonderful trifle. It’s full of all kinds of yummy fruits with some pieces of cake cut up, cream filling, and whip cream. I just at the fruit and what little whip cream happened to still be on them. I don’t feel guilty about that at all.

Other than some chocolate here and there I’ve been pretty darn good with my eating and happy to report that I’m down in weight after the holidays. The lesson from this past week is that you don’t have to be perfect when it comes to your nutrition and workout program in order to be successful. I indulged and I was still successful.

Happy New Year! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your fat loss journey in 2008.

Unstoppable Fat Loss Contest Winner (December)

For the December Unstoppable Fat Loss Contest I asked the question, “How Can I Best Help You Achieve Your Fat Loss Goals In 2008?” The responses have been outstanding. I can’t wait to get cracking on your suggestions and to hear all about your successes because of them. Before I announce the winner, I want to take a moment to discus a common concern that has been repeated from many of you over the past several months…

You want the motivation and inspiration to stick to and follow through with whatever program that you are currently following. You want to be able to blast through any obstacle or challenge that you are faced with. You want to put an end to self-sabotage and yo-yo dieting and finally feel great about yourself.

A few months back when I asked you the question, “What do you think it takes to achieve your dream body?“, over 60 of you responded with mindset and motivation.

For the December contest these were just a few of your responses…

From Emily:

Hi Scott. well i think there is already so much information out there on diet and exercise that the problem for me isn’t knowing what to do but choosing something and sticking with it. i already exercise and eat a fairly healthy diet, but seem to fall into self-destructive patterns when i find myself finally making progress. i will slip from the gym or lose control with eating until i find myself right back where i started. I know about goal setting and linking my values to my goals, but something still seems to be missing because i can’t seem to change.

From Debbie:

My problem is I get going and then I have a set back that is hard to recover from. I am a mom of three boys ages 18,6 and 1 and they keep me going. I find it hard to make time for myself and I really find it hard to motivate myself. I just turned 40 and I wonder deep down if it is too late to really get back that 20 year olds body I used to have. I need motivation, encouragement and people that wont judge me on what it is I would like to accomplish for myself.

From Marje:

Right, well I’ve only been following you for a few days but already I feel more motivated. I liked the video about the motivation ‘body parts all over the house’ thing though perhaps my husband wouldn’t agree. I am 53 years old and if you can help me you can help anybody!! Keep it up!

From Tracy:

what would help me the most is a daily reminder or push per se’ that would come to me each day as a reminder in email or a text to my phone that reads have you done todays workout or get your butt to the gym boy.

From Cherie:

Scott, My wish for 2008 is for you to start an AUDIO version of Fit Chic and Fit Bastard. More and more authors are doing this with their own books. You are truly inspirational. I loved your Unstoppable fat loss audio series. I would love to be inspired -on the go- by listening to your other books. And you would catch the crowd that doesn’t enjoy actually reading a book but love to listen.

So from reading your comments and emails everyday I can see that you understand that mindset must be at the forefront of your fitness journey and many of you have begun to take some action steps such as Emily who said, “I know about goal setting and linking my values to my goals, but something still seems to be missing because i can’t seem to change.” Goal setting and core values are a component of mindset, but there’s so much more to it.

The only thing that I ask of you in 2008 is for you to please place mindset training at the very top of your overall fitness plan. Trust me. When you do this, the workouts and the eating all fall into place.

But there needs to be 100% honest effort and commitment when it comes to mindset training. You can’t just say that you know about goal setting, core values, beliefs, attitudes, visualization, positive thinking, mental imagery, mental rehearsal, accountability, support, journaling, growth, comfort zones, and every other component of mindset. You’ve actually got to apply this information on a regular basis. It doesn’t necessarily have to be every day. Even I don’t log into my journal every day… but it is a regular practice of mine.

I’ve known for many years about this need that so many of you have when it comes to motivation. I’ve studied the topic during my 4 years of University and I continue to study it to this day. I’ve studied elite athletes and understand that it’s those who commit to mindset training that end up becoming the successful champions. I’ve studied people who successfully lose weight and burn fat and notice that they all incorporated some form of mindset training into their program and the real successful people became very creative with their mindset training.

This is why I created Unstoppable Fat Loss nearly 1 year ago. Even with all of my studies on the topic of mindset and motivation I was floored at what I learned from each of the 21 interviews within the program.

I’ve listened to all of the audios a few dozen times and just listened to one of them during my brisk walk this morning. Once again I took a tidbit of information that I had missed when previously listening to it and I’m applying it today.

This is one resource that I highly recommend you check out and consider using in 2008. It will enhance and compliment any workout or diet program that you are currently following and ever follow in the future.

Simply visit www.UnstoppableFatLoss.com to learn more.

Now onto our December Unstoppable Fat Loss contest winner who will receive not only the 21 interviews contained in Unstoppable Fat Loss, but my 2 books as well, The Fit Chic, and The Fit Bastard.

And the winner is… Khandi!

This was Khandi’s response to my question, “How can I best help you achieve your fat loss goals in 2008:

Hey Scott,

This year has been a challenging one for me and looking back on it.i realized that I was unhappy for most of the year…this was a scary realization. Pretty much a whole year of misfortune: lost my doggy she would be 16 years now- i don’t regret her dying I just miss her cause I’m so use to having her here for me), my fiancee has gotten a terrible case of cold feet and has called things off…financially things have been tough too so i cant even move out and have to coexist with him under new arrangements. I don’t recommend that for even my worst enemy (if i had one) But something amazing has come out of it, while I admit I still cry everyday, I have realized that these are things that happened to me. I didn’t mess up my relationship I’m still loving and patient in case he figures himself out, I didn’t kill my dog,…well maybe I could’ve managed my debt better but I’m working on that part…but I did gain weight and don’t have the body that I always wanted and that is something that I can control as hard as it may be. My focus has to be on making myself happy and doing and being the best that i can be. I refuse to be sad for a whole year this upcoming year and thats what will be unstoppable for me (no pun intended…well…maybe it was a little intended) I will pursue happiness and conquer my goals to have that satisfaction of knowing that I could do it.Sadness, loneliness and blows to the self esteem are the horrible reality of breakups but I can choose to handle it as well as I can on my part and ‘fix’ me…I just need your continued motivation. I love your wit and your personality and the way you have incorporated your family into your career. You may not realize it but you have helped me tremendously so far. I love your you tube videos and only hope you will make more for the New Year. Perhaps you could think of making dvds of your year long workouts-that would be awesome! If theres anyone out there who has been through hell and is tired of being sad- now is the time to change and take charge! wishing you, your family and fellow readers a truly Happy New Year

Once again it was difficult to choose a winner this month. You all shared great comments and I truly appreciate that. I didn’t choose Khandi because of her sob story in the beginning. I chose her because of how she turned her focus around and I could feel the fire burning desire deep insider her. I also love that she finished off by providing words of encouragement for everyone else. A very selfless act that I looked upon highly.

We can all learn from each others struggles and triumphs. I’ve been bankrupt, broke, depressed, and 30 pounds overweight before myself. I know what those tough times are like. I also know that because I can succeed you can succeed too.

My only hope is that each person who wins my monthly contests actually values the prize and applies the information. As much as I love giving things away, sometimes when people get things for free they feel that if they don’t use it there is no loss. Free stuff can be good, but when you pay for something you feel a loss if you don’t use it.

So congratulations Khandi! You earned this prize, now go make full use of it. For everyone else, I’ll announce my next contest shortly.

Happy New Year to all of you. Cheers to your success in 2008 and beyond.
