I LOVE Led Zepplin. What a perfect song as we rapidly approach the summary judgement this month.

Word on the street is that there are people looking for me and will be talking with me soon. That is news to me. They will need to get in line and make an appointment as I am extremely busy these days.

This 2 year anniversary is very symbolic for me. I have been through a lot in the past 2 years, but have made the most dramatic changes in just this past month. I have been spending some time weeding out the things that are not important to me, and should we get the results we hope to see from the Kimkins case I will be excited to unload that from the list of things to tidy up and finish off.

I’ve been working on a new internet marketing plan and overall life plan. I am not sure whether this has come as a result of a seven year itch or some midlife thing, but the unloading feels good.

My new goals will be completed by August of 2011. 2 years sounds like a long time for a plan, but I am looking for some long term results – not just a quick fix. We all learned from KK that the quick fix can actually make things worse in the long run.

While I had gained back nearly all the weight I lost, it has been dropping off this past month without even trying. I have found if I just keep busy and stay away from car rides it is a no brainer. I think the addition of dropping some unnecessary stress and things that just were not working has been an important factor.

I’ve been asking myself, “what would really make me happy?”  I think people fall into slumps of thinking they are happy or spending too much time trying to make others happy. The next couple of years will be all on making myself as happy as possible.

I would suggest to people who are overweight to ask themselves the same question before even starting a diet. Not the ones with medical issues, but those who have just let things slide. The right answer should have nothing to do with weight – meaning your answer should not be “If I lost 100lbs I would be really happy.” Losing weight is not as hard a battle when other negative issues have been removed. I have personally evaluated for myself that my weight is a reflection of the other issues surrounding me. Right now, food is not important other than for nourishment. As a total “foodie” I am suprised I have finally come to this.

I have dropped a pant size in a week. I have not obsessed with counting calories, or deprived myself when I felt hungry. I’ll be monitoring myself weekly and keeping track of my happiness level. Should things keep going in the right direction, I’ll be relieved to have finally found what really “works.”
