Think Positive!




When I began to exercise after my pregnancy, I always saw the trouble. A very smart man told me that to transform my body I must see only the good. “You must always be positive, because your body can only do what your brain sees.”

Here are some transformative thoughts to have - Remember you’re always choosing either one. Choose wisely!


Instead of trouble I began to see opportunity
Instead the negative, see positive
Instead of bad, see the good
Instead of can’t, say can
Instead of hope, say I will
Instead of self-doubt, feel self-confident
Instead of second-guessing myself, I trust myself.
Instead of dwelling on my mistakes, I accept them and move ahead.
Instead of kicking myself for my last shot, I think about my next shot
Instead of worrying about what could go wrong, I focus on what I do right
Instead of being self-critical, I give myself the benefit of the doubt.
Instead of pondering my weaknesses, I assert my strengths.
Instead of thinking of what my body is not, I think of what my body can do.


The resolution is to see the opportunity instead of trouble. 
Confidence is everything.  From there, it’s a small step to winning.

How does the whole house get to eating healthy?

Replated Rice & Beans (spinach, kale and onions included) Healthy eating equals a healthy family! We often think that the only person who should be eating healthy is the person who is trying to lose weight. That is a lie!  Anyone and everyone should be attempting to eat healthy.   Healthy eating keeps diseases away and body in optimal shape. This article will help parents think of new ideas for healthy food preparation. I have a young child that hates vegetables. It was important that I found new ways to incorporate vegetables into his eating habits. I did and I called it replating.  I simply found ways to incorporate fruit and vegetables in every meal and make it look differently while respecting every family member's preferences.  Do not like the way vegetables & fruits look - Make them to look differently.  Growing in a Caribbean household meant that you did not have much choice in what you ate. You were given plates of food...

Train the mind the body will follow

A lot of us are knowledgeable and are very aware of things that we should and could be doing, yet we fail to do it. In other words my actions does not match up with what I believe.    The more I thought about, the more I came to the realization that the reason I failed to practice certain things was because I tend to care about people’s perception of me. I allowed and continue to allow people’s thoughts and concern to affect my life.  I used to overextend myself in doing anything asked of me in order to honor the feelings of others. I lived in this manner because I did not want to be perceived as someone who was selfish and not nice.     Losing weight is not complicated. It is us as humans that choose to make everything we do difficult. One of the main reason we find it to be difficult is because we tend to approach weight loss with instant gratification.    Having worked one on one with many clients and talking to hundreds of people througho...

Client Spotlight: A new perspective is all it takes!

  I have been overweight all of my life. At a young age, I often stopped playing early in games that required heavy running and movements as it pained to do these activities for long.  The fear of being ridiculed or being excluded from activities sometimes forced me into pushing myself which was not necessarily a bad thing because it allowed me to get in some form of exercise. I was the only overweight child in the house which made it difficult for my parents.  They often felt that putting one on a diet while the rest were free to eat what they wanted was somewhat cruel.  I am of Caribbean background and I can honestly say that eating home cooked meals was considered to be healthy despite the amount of carbs on your plate.  Eating unhealthy meant that you were eating burgers, pizza, fried chicken etc…. but if the chicken was fried in the same dwelling you rested your head… it some how was regarded as healthy.  This was the dilemma. Around the age of 12 my p...
