Successful weight loss takes programming, not willpower.

You have to figure out what that is, and you have to make a plan to get to it. And the plan has got to have a timeline. You have to choose something that you can afford to do and then lock it in and passionately do it.

You can't put feathers on a dog and call it a chicken!

Grief is a process to go through, not a destination in which to wallow. In a process, you keep putting one foot in front of the other, and each little step is part of your healing.

It's hard to see your own face without a mirror.
