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.

Night eating

  Ever had one of those nights when that voice whisper and says, “just a bite? You were good all day and ate healthy but for some reason your taste bud calls for something you know you should not be eating. You go to the kitchen, open the refrigerator door, and look at all the food you have. Decisions, decisions.  Which snack will it be?   I have had clients tell me that they have been surrounded by delicious food all day long and were able to dodge the temptations, but for some reason they are unable to keep their diets at night. Their diet is routinely sabotaged at night. The thoughts usually fall under the lines of “I have been good all day”. I rode my bike for 3 miles. I walked, weight trained and did various exercise and because of this, I deserve a reward for my good behavior. This thinking, leads us to consume a full day’s calories every night.    The truth is they are deserving of a treat, but treating themselves badly. Treats should be consumed spa...

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...
