Happy Monday to you all. As most of you know, Monday is my weigh-in day. I’m very excited to announce that I have lost an additional 2 pounds this past week.

That means that I’ve lost a total of 26 pounds and my waist size as gone from 46 inches down to 41 inches since May 1st, 2009.

In this podcast episode, I share that this past week has been challenging in that I had a few days where I simply lacked motivation and drive. In spite of the way I felt, I was still able to maintain a healthy outlook and attitude toward calorie counting and staying within my minimum goal of working out an hour per day, five days per week.

It’s a shorter episode than usual. Even though the sun was shining and I was feeling better, I’ve still had quite a bit of stuff on my mind as of late. I’m trying to stay productive and moving forward with worthwhile projects and staying free from distractions at all costs. Not only that, I’m desperately trying to maintain my ability to go to bed early so that I can get that much needed early start to the day.

Healthy Cooking Oils And More – Podcast Episode 412

June 25, 2009

In this episode of Pursuing A Balanced Life, I share how I applied the principles and values of pursuing a balanced life to what would have normally been a very highly stressful situation. Several folks had called in some great tips, suggestions, and feedback.

Also, I shared an audio clip from a podcast that I’m listening to of Jillian Michaels from The Biggest Loser TV Show. She does a radio talk shoe on a station in California. The podcast feed includes all the shows that they air on Sunday. So what I did was subscribe to this feed and simply deleted each episode that was not hers. If you have itunes, you can just click here.

Finally, I shared that that my shoes are showing visible signs of wear and tear from all this walking. I mentioned that I would use an image of them as the album artwork for the podcast. for those of you who don’t have a player that displays the album artwork, this image is posted her for you and it speaks volumes.

More Than Just Health And Fitness – Podcast Episode 411

Oddly enough, too much focus and attention on the Health and Fitness aspect of our lives can cause our lives to be thrown off balance. Since May 1st, I’ve been pursuing a healthier lifestyle that incorporates a generous amount of daily physical activity. I have also had a major paradigm shift in the way that I look at food and its nutritional value.

While I’ve been devoting a large portion of this blog and podcast to the topic of Health and Fitness, I’ve been just as focused on focusing more attention to the other areas of a balanced life such as Community, Work/Career, Family, Faith, Personal Development, and Recreation. It’s a balance between Health/Fitness and all of these areas of our lives that truly cause us to enjoy the abundant life that God has provided us.

In this podcast episode, I share several things that took place over this past weekend. Prior to my focused pursuit of a Balanced Life, I would not have been able to enjoy all the events things that took place. However, because of the values and principles that I’ve been learning and applying to my life, I found myself living in the moment on a more consistent basis.

By the way, I mentioned that when I posted this episode, I’d put my weigh-in day results in the show notes. I’m excited to tell you that I’ve lost another 2 pounds in the last seven days for a total of TWENTY ONE POUNDS LOST SINCE May 1st!

I am very excited to release this episode of the Pursuing A Balanced Life podcast. This is the audio recording from last night’s PABL Round Table Discussion.

Those you will hear in this call are Edith Baker, Patti Bagadion, Amanda Black, Erik Fisher, Patrick Greer, Sharon M., Maggie Mack, Richard Marcotte, Cliff Ravenscraft, Stephanie Ravenscraft, Mark Tafoya, and Stephanie Weak.

The conversation was a great way to demonstrate that Pursuing A Balanced Life is a goal of people from many different walks of life. I think my favorite thing about last night’s conversation was that even though our community is made up of people who are all at different places in their life as it relates to the current balance of their lives, we are all on the same journey together. No matter where each of us are at, we can all encourage and inspire each other equally. We all add value to the conversation!

We will be doing another PABL Round Table Discussion Very Soon!

Holistic Approach To Community Encouragement – Podcast Episode 408

June 12, 2009

Yet the end of another very busy week. Looking back, it’s hard to imagine that I’ve accomplished as much as I did.

I’m extremely thankful for the three major consulting jobs that I had this week. Two of my appointments ran three hours each and the third appointment ran four hours.

In this podcast episode I share that I’m back to walking in the morning. I share why I was beginning to get concerned about how my walks seemed to be getting later and later into the day.

I also share my thoughts regarding walking on the treadmill the other day.

I also discuss the upcoming PABL Round Table Discussion. One thing that I learned only after recording this episode is that Stephanie is actually going to be joining the discussion. I’m so excited.

I share how I had completed forgotten about a previous recommendation of Jeff Roney to do a lot of what I’m doing today. Also, Toni called to update us on her status! Congratulations Toni!

Finally, I also talked about my interview on the Doctor Anonymous show. If you would like to listen to the interview that I mentioned in this show, CLICK HERE!
