Motivational Musing
What’s In Your Mental Junk Drawer?
Are you familiar with the computer term, GIGO? It means “garbage in, garbage out.” I learned this term from a computer-geek friend of mine who was commenting on my rant on the Britney coverage. My friend said, “Why are you watching that junk? It’s pure GIGO.* You need to clean out your mental junk drawer.”
We make such a valiant effort to eat healthfully and be positive, yet we allow our minds to be bombarded with an unending stream of negative thoughts and violent images. Our mental junk drawers are jam packed with trashy talk shows, negative news stories, violent movies and nasty gossip.
How to steer clear of the negativity?
- Do not watch the news, violent movies or empty-calorie television shows, especially before bedtime.
- Do not hold on to old grudges and hurts. Let it go. All is forgiven. Move on!
- Do not focus on your problems. Shift your energy to helping someone else.
- Do read inspiration and motivational books, magazines. Keep your mind awash in positivity.
- Do spend some time solving crossword puzzles or number games. They exercise your brain, enabling you to learn more easily.
- Do not worry. There’s no point to it, and worrying is a real buzz kill.
- Do sit quietly, all by yourself. Ahhhhhhhh...
- Do use the term "It's pure GIGO." Let's coin this catchy phrase and whenever you hear anything negative, simply say, "It's pure GIGO." (And remember ... you heard it hear first!)
New Point of View: A clean mental junk drawer in conjunction with a clean diet promotes permanent fat removal.
What’s in our mental junk drawer? How are you going to clean it out? How often have you used the phrase "It's pure GIGO." this week? Write OLofWL

Thanks to Janice for giving me tools and tips on how to improve my life. Speaking with her on a weekly basis gave me so much 'want power!' I now make better choices. An amazing four weeks. Well worth the time, energy and investment! ~ CB
Working with Janice helped me to discover the door to my future. With 5 pounds permanently gone already, I am for the first time, seeing a whole new me with passion and interest in areas I would not have dreamt of even 2 months ago! The depth and breadth of what she has to offer is truly a gift. ~Jane A.
Janice's honesty, compassion, professionalism and sincerity to help came through in each phone session. Her coaching skills are tremendously effective in all areas: weight loss, relationships, career - LIFE! I learned much more about myself than I expected; specifically, the root cause of my anxiety (which was causing me to overeat). ~ Heather D.B.

"This is a lovely sweet, yet not too sweet, soup with a hint of mild spice. Butternut squash and pears make a wonderful combination, and both flavors are evident in this warming fall and winter soup." ~ Fiona
INGREDIENTS:
2 tsp olive oil * 1 cup finely chopped onion * 1 tbsp curry powder * 1 pound butternut squash (about half a medium squash), cut into 1-inch pieces * 2 ripe medium Bartlett pears, peeled, cored and cut into 1-inch pieces * 3 1/2 cups fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth
PREPARATION:
Heat oil on medium heat in Dutch oven or soup pot. Gently sauté onions until softened—about 5 minutes. Add curry powder and stir, sautéing for 1 minute. Add butternut squash and pear pieces.
Sauté for 3-4 minutes. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes until squash and pear are tender. Transfer soup to a food processor or blender and purée until smooth, working in two batches if necessary.

Chewing the Fat
Dear OLofWL ~ I was hanging around at home last week, feeling kind of blue and schleppy, when I remembered something you'd said some time ago about how a change of dress can change a mood. So I got up, got dressed, put on heels, and went out. Wow, what a different a heel makes! Thanks so much! ~ S.M., Santa Clara, California
Dear S.M. ~ So glad I said something useful! Whew! Dressing for permanent fat removal is an important part of the process. And smiling is a great thing to do as well. Get dressed, smile and head on out, into the 'lite' ... woo hoo! ~ OLofWL
* * *
Dear OLofWL ~ I just wanted you to know that I have successfully taken off 20 pounds of unsightly fat, and I didn't have to cut my head off to do it. LOL! Thanks for the support. ~ Always, E.
Dear E. ~ Glad to hear you still have your wits about you and your sense of humor. And, how about we call it what it is ... excess weight, plain and simple. Nothing unsightly about it. Just extra adipose tissue! ~ OLofWL

Dear OLofWL ~ Hooray for O, The Oprah Magazine for recognizing that you are a 'Kooky Genius!!' And for recommending your book, Our Lady of Weight Loss to her readers. Yaaaaay! Next step - her couch.

For those who like to make art - design cards - look at other people's work - watch CD's with fun stuff on them - this mag (comes with a CD of artsy stuff) is well worth the purchase. Here's the link to my page: Concupiscence Cake. Concupiscence means "desire": the faculty of appetite is sometimes referred to as desire or concupiscence. It refers to the fact that each individual feels a lack of something within himself. To address this emptiness, he turns elsewhere for fulfillment.
Wow! Weight loss art with great meaning.

pre-HolidaZe GlaZe
I know, you're thinking ... why is OLofWL talking about the holidaze? Isn't it a tad early? I'll tell you why! There's only 8 weeks till Thanksgiving and 13 weeks till Christmas. AND last year I vowed NOT to leave shopping till the very last minute. So, I figured - hey - I'll shop and pass on my favorite finds to y'all.
This week's featured HolidaZe GlaZe Pick is ... Bath Desserts!
Hemp seed oil infused bath and body products that smell and look like candy!! The Body Melt Truffles are to die for; a box of 15 truffles is $15.00. Available in coconut, lemon, peppermint and vanilla. Their Sorbet Sugar Scrubs are great too. Guiltless gifts for you and your loved one. YUM Delicious!

Janice Taylor is a Coach/Certified Hypnotist (specializing in weight loss, self-esteem and happiness). Contact Janice for a FREE consultation and ask about her 4-week program!
Janice's wise words and insightful perceptions helped to keep me focused as I learned to integrate the changes (and challenges) I have taken on in my new way of eating. With her support, I no longer live in fear of everything spiraling out of control. To date, I have permanently removed 22 lbs. (20 more to go), and I am feeling so much more grounded and centered in my life. I know I will make it! ~ S.A.
Janice's honesty, compassion, professionalism and sincerity to help came through in each phone session. Her coaching skills are tremendously effective in all areas: weight loss, relationships, career - LIFE! I learned much more about myself than I expected; specifically, the root cause of my anxiety (which was causing me to overeat). ~ Heather D.B.
The insightful nature of what Janice was able to glean from me and reflect back to me was so much more than any of my many other attempts with counseling and group work. I am filled with hope and peace each day, as I watch my body catch up to my spirit. ~ KF
Working with Janice changed everything for me. A total shift that encompassed so much more than weight loss. She is an amazing life-coach. Intuitive, insightful and non-judgmental. ~ TZ
Since I began reading Our Lady of Weight Loss (the book) and working with Janice as my coach, I have lost 12 pounds! This feels so very positive. Janice's advice, support and insights have been and will continue to be an enormous help to me, in many, many ways. ~ SB
