Woo Hoo...I've got two!

Two down that is. I've worked out 2 days in a row and listened to the old Gaining Lightness CD. I had a change in plans on the exercise. I decided to use the Jillian Michaels' CD's since Robin, my daughter was raving about how great they were. I got plenty of exercise in my little town trying to find the "30 Day Shred" CD. It's not here. So I opted for the other 2 JM CD's that were available and I have found places that hurt that I didn't even know were a part of my body!! Nothing like exercise to let me know that eating an extra cookie or some ice cream is not worth having to do another 20 or 30 minutes! Seemed I just looked at the cookie and twisted or bent a little and let the groaning muscles talk to my mind and body. Very convincing.

I think I fell asleep both nights listening to the GL CD. I make it to the part where exercise is being mentioned and I'm out. I'll keep listening. The stuff is sinking in somewhere and you never know when it will just kick up and make itself known.

For instance, last week I had a dream about a high school friend who happened to be my best friend. I haven't seen her in years. But in the dream I was at a seminar where we were being asked to share things that might help others in the room. My friend stood up and said she had lost a lot of weight by tapping, and started tapping her head and places on her face. She said she didn't know what it was called but it worked. I stood up and shouted, "EFT!" It's called EFT." Then I woke up.

Interesting how my subconscious mind and my dreams used my best friend from the past to point out a technique I had been ignoring. This led me to Gary Craig's web site, emofree.com, (actually his newsletters which I receive every day but don't find time to read) where I found an article about using EFT for emotional issues tied to weight loss. As soon as I read it, I'll start using it as an add-on to my other methods.

Woo Hoo! The scales are already creeping down. It's the weekend that usually starts it back up so by this weekend I hope to have things moving in the right direction and be committed to keep it going down!

Don't just sit there reading this post...get up and do something even if it is just marching in place while reading. You've got to move to lose! It's a pain to gain unless you're gaining lightness. That play on words. No one wants to lose things. You lose it, you start trying to find it again. Ever lost anything that you didn't try to find? Gain a new life and gain lightness. The book is great but the inductions are very powerful.

Ta-ta for now.
