More Pants Lie

Friday, March 12th, 2010

I go a huge response from article I wrote for the last newsletter entitled Pants Lie. So I thought I’s share with you some of the things I learned.

calvin klein One of my good friends is a marketing guru, and at some point had a meeting with a high level marketing person with Calvin Klein. They got to talking and she went on to tell how today’s size 2 is actually a size 4 from the 80’s. And as the sizes get bigger the gap gets larger. Example: today’s size 12 is a size 16 from the 80’s and the same applies for men.

Hard Questions

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

why

 

You’d think with that title I’d come back with something like  “That’s what she said”, but no, not today.  (although it does make me snicker a bit)

I am taking these post directly from my friend Turbulence Training guru Craig Ballantyne, who recently posted these questions that really got me thinking. Maybe they will get you thinking too…

Insurmountable Wall of Death?

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

President Bill Clinton said it best when he said “I feel your pain.”

Cheer up , Bill.

The thought of achieving your goals, whether it be fitness & fat loss (or whatever life your goal you might have) can seem insurmountable. 

Well it is surmountable.  Way surmountable.  But the path can be long, uphill and not well marked.  Plus there might be pain involved. But no one expects you to do it alone.

Barbara – is that you?

Sunday, June 14th, 2009

I just read a post by my colleague and nutritional guru Jonny Bowden.  He wrote a piece (with accompanying video) on what he calls the Barbara Bush Syndrome.

Let me Cliff Note it here for you:

For the historically impaired,  before President George W. Bush, his daddy was our president – George H. W. Bush.  And our first lady was his wife, Barbara Bush.

Well the the powers that be behind the powers that be believed the first lady had an image issue.  For one thing she looked significantly older than the president, appearing more like his mother than his wife.  And as we all know, image is all that any cares about right?
