Weighty Confession
Forgive Me for I Have Sinned
Company came with chocolate Halvah in hand. While I did not eat the entire brick (I had to leave some for other people, did I not?), I did carve quite a lovely shape into it, while its fallings fell into my mouth! Yikes!

Motivational Musing
Forgiveness: A key ingredient to entering the Kingdom of Permanent Fat Removal.
Many of us have been known to scoff down one piece of cake, beat ourselves up, feel rotten to the core, and then have another slice of the Devils food to soothe. Our fat cells multiply our pants tighten - we feel even worse yet we indulge in still another serving of forbidden food followed by the inevitable platterful of punishment. Results? Broken zippers; broken dreams.
In terms of permanent fat removal, holding a grudge against oneself being unforgiving for what we perceive to be horrific dietary crimes and misdemeanors can only impede our progress. There is absolutely no point in unleashing mammoth-sized portions of anger or the relentlessly chastising inner voice upon ourselves.
Confess your dietary sins, forgive yourself and move on. Remember that one slice of cake does not a fat person make. Get back on the wagon NOW
laughing and smiling, if you please!
Three Quick Tips to Forgiveness
* Accept yourself with all your wondrous imperfections. For goodness sake, youre only human and how dull would it be if you were perfect.
* Lighten your load. Let go of self-anger (past and present). If you dont, youll be draggin around that much more baggage (and it doesnt classify as a strength training exercise.)
* Love thyself first and foremost. (FYI it all boils down to a reduction sauce of self-love.)
Do not let one dietary transgression take you on a ten-year detour.
All Is Forgiven. Move On.
faToid ~ A normal person has about 30 billion fat cells; overweight people have as many as 100 billion fat cells and severely obese people may be carting around up to 210 billion.

Chewing the Fat
Hi OLofWL ~ I am so inspired by your writings. Although, on some level, I don't believe I will have the kind of success you and the other women have had. I keep reminding myself that this is not a race, but, at times, I get real discouraged with my results. Your book and newsletters have opened my heart up to being more kind to myself and my situation. They have, also, given me the "KITT" when I need it to get back into the swing of things when I am feeling better. I really appreciate the opportunity to vent, and I would welcome any suggestions from you. With blessings to you, Aisha
Dear Aisha ~ If I can permanently remove 55 pounds, anybody can. The key is to just keep on going, even when the scales of injustice have come a screeching halt or slow down to a painful crawl.
And it is important to believe in yourself. If you are not in a 'believing' place, then fake it till you make it. Remind yourself of all that is truly amazing and wonderful about yourself. And move forward from there. If you are having any difficulty coming up with how fabulous you are, write me again, or take me up on my offer for a free consultation, and I promise you that we'll come up with a long list of things for you to use to motivate yourself up the upward spiral! The fact that your heart and mind are open to the idea of being kind to yourself is terrific! Hug yourself and go ... into the 'lite' ... OLofWL
* * *
Dear OLofWL ~ I had tried EVERYTHING. Or so I thought, until OLoWL spoke to me through the pages of your book. As it happened, the book arrived on the full moon, May 1, 2007. Naturally, I was drawn to Kick #40, Our Lady of the Waning Moon. (Yes, I skipped ahead.) How much FUN did I have collecting red "jewels," assembling my altar, making my list with crimson ink on burnt-orange paper, lighting my candles and releasing my intentions into the universe? What a blast!
Bonus!!! I did not think about food for at least an hour while all this was going on. Still, I must confess that I was feeling so very festive during my Full Moon Ritual preparations that I drank a rather generous glass of wine. Well, OK, two. In my defense, I must tell you that in place of my usual Chardonnay, I chose a nice bottle of Merlot in keeping with Our Lady's ritual moon palette. One can never pay too much attention to detail, don't you agree?
Well, giddy as I was, I bungled the New Moon/Full Moon variations that you so clearly explain in this chapter. That is to say, on this Full Moon I made a list of all of the new things I want to bring into my life, which, as you well know, is the exercise for the New Moon Ritual. Oy caramba! However, in spite of all this, I experienced Our Lady's divine blessings anyway, and I am here to reassure your other readers that OLoWL is, indeed, merciful and sympathetic to our shortcomings.
For example, today I felt strongly that if I could just eat a few donuts, I would surely leave my troubles behind. (Fat chance!) Instead, I decided to review my full moon list and have a metaphysical word with Our Lady. She suggested that I give this kooky Weight Loss Art a whirl. She assured me that I did not have to embrace it, just try one project (with glitter) and see how it goes. The result, my premiere OLoWL piece, I call You've Got the Pow-WAH! and I think it gets right to the point, don't you?
A couple more musings before I go
. Looking back at page 231, I see that I recorded these thoughts:
Q. Why did Janice leave such huge margins? A. Notes, my dear, notes and suggestions
So here they are: Make sure that your altar is in front of a window where you have a good view of the moon, New or Full as the case may be. * Wear your red lingerie, even if its still a bit snug. * Line up several jewels in front of the candles. They glow in the candlelight and cast a magical spell on your ritual.
Thank you for bringing some hilarity into my erstwhile dreary weight loss zone. Yours in Loss, Debbie C., Santa Cruz, CA.
Dear Debbie ~ I so enjoyed your trials and tribulations of the new moon/full moon rituals - particularly the use of the red lingerie, as well as your very clever and well-rendered premiere piece of art, which I was unfortunately unable to reproduce in this column. Thank You for sending in such an entertaining email! Both OLofWL and Janice enjoyed it! Keep it up. Your spirit is shining bright! ~ OLofWL

Creative Acts of Weight Loss
What is a creative act of weight loss?
Its ANYTHING that you do that feels good and feeds your soul, other than eating (the bad stuff - in excess - when not hungry).
I'm not quite sure that this qualifies as a "recipe" or a Creative Act of Weight Loss, as it is a creative solution as an afternoon-at-the-office treat:
I buy individually-packaged unsweetened applesauce servings (50 calories each) that are meant for children's lunch boxes. They don't need refrigeration, and I can keep them in my office (I'm a college professor). When I get hungry in the afternoon, I eat one serving, stirring in a packet of no-calorie lemon-flavoring (it seems to be made of citric-acid powder) that the Department keeps near the coffee-and-tea machine. The lemon flavoring adds a whiff of sophistication to my afternoon treat. And I feel pampered! ~ Deborah K.

"When I called on Janice, I had been stuck at the same weight for close to three months. I had reached that plateau that many reach, where one loses their footing on the road to healthy weight loss. During the 4 weeks that I worked with Janice, I lost 7 pounds and since then, have been much better adhering to my weight loss plan. Things make sense again. I felt supported, listened to, and encouraged by our four talks. It was a gift to myself speaking to Janice and I recommend her coaching to anyone who wants more support and guidance and help." ~ Rosemary R., Greenwich Village
"Janice Taylor has been a truly inspirational weight loss coach. Through her creative insight I have found my "artists' soul", making the journey to my new lifestyle fulfilling and utterly satisfying. And I permanently removed over 40 pounds of excess weight! " L~ Brooklyn. NY
"Janice has 'been there' and knows the struggle. She offers practical suggestions and inspirational guidance. Her sense of humor and high spiritedness put me at east and helped to make weight loss fun!" - Felice, PA.
"I look forward to each session with Janice and feel energized afterward, leaving with constructive suggestions and strategies as to how to deal with situations as well as food. Janice is inspiring and keeps me motivated." - Joyce, CT.
