Sheri’s Rants #34: FAST WEIGHT LOSS NOW!!

February 3, 2010 by

There are two popular routes to ‘fast’ weight loss. The first one is fasting and the second is diet pills.  A third route gaining in popularity is a dangerous combination of the two – the HCG diet which combines injections of human growth hormone with a metabolism-wasting 500 calories a day. First some factual background […]

The Lost Art of Goal Achievement

Courtney Townley Setting a goal is easy, achieving it is not. The New Year inspires goal-setting unlike any other time of the year, especially goal-setting with health based objectives.  Fitness facilities, supplement companies, and the authors of endless diet books make a fortune at the start of each new year because of the promises that […]

Sheri’s Rants # 31: Burn the Ships!

A long while ago, a great warrior had to make a decision which ensured his success on the battlefield.  He was about to send his armies against a powerful foe, whose men outnumbered his own.  He loaded his soldiers into boats, sailed to the enemy’s country, unloaded soldiers and equipment, then gave the order to […]

Sheri’s Rants # 28: What Caused the Fat Gain?

October 31, 2009 by

I want to break something down to you really fast, here:  What caused the fat gain in the first place? Until that reason is determined — different in each of us — no fat loss system can possibly succeed over the long term. Even if a short-term loss is achieved, the weight will be regained, […]

Sheri’s Rants # 27: Stopping the Pain

This video footage starts with me telling a story and going into a short spiel on GT.  Then we were done filming and I was having a smoothie.  The camera guy asked me a question and I went off on an impromptu rant – and didn’t know he was filming.  As a result, it was […]

Sheri’s Rants # 26: Diet Head in Debt

When planning purchases, especially major ones, life is much easier if you’ve saved up for them, isn’t it?  If you haven’t, then you end up in debt – and once you’re in debt you’re accruing interest rates, and now you owe even MORE money, right?  And the pain of payment is stretched out over time; […]

Living in a State of Transformation – (featured client Lisa)

Although I have struggled with my weight my entire life, in my teens, 20’s and early 30’s, I was reasonably fit and active.  Then Life happened, and I chose to cope in self destructive ways.  By the time I’d seen the big 4-0 come and go, I had stopped beating myself up, and wanted to […]

“The law of nature is, Do the thing, and you shall have the power:  But they who do not the thing have not the power.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson Accountability is the backbone of the entire Genesis Transformation process.   It defines the role of the coach as much as it names the end point of a […]

Sheri’s Rants # 25: Get Used to Being Rude

The Genesis Transformation community has it’s own outlet for support – a private forum embedded into Genesis itself where folks go and celebrate, whine, cajole, humor, and support each other.  It’s a fun place to hang out. I came across a post in there where the writer was despairing of attending a dinner party.  What […]

Sheri’s Rants #25: Your Basic Chewing Out.

This morning I took  four dogs on a hike up a rocky winding trail.  For most of the hike, it was dry and steep and hot.  When I started thinking about turning around with the panting dogs, I made a decision to go just a bit further; I wasn’t crunched for time.  We climbed another […]
