The Most Overlooked Key to Success with Weight Loss (and other habit change, too)...

We are thoughtful about the Readiness stage in Slender for Good. Learn more in the video...

In the Slender for Good community, we support each other's success.

In this video, I speak to why this happens, and what we can do, and should NOT do, to get back on track. Beating ourselves up doesn't help at all-- it actually interferes with our learning and growth.  Instead, we must build the muscle of...

No Good or Bad Foods-- is that true?  Does this idea help or hurt our healthy eating efforts? Just have "a little" of the treats-- it's no big deal, there's no good or bad foods.

In this talk, I share a mantra many of us have found much more true and much more helpful: Everything I eat or drink either helps or harms my body. Slender...
