For any of you who are interested in my journeys with Transformational Weight Loss (explained here and here with the book here and here) or GWCC (explained here and here with bracelet instructions here), here's an update that is 3:53 long:
UPDATE: Please forgive the blurry video quality. This will be corrected on all subsequent videos. Thank you Rick!
olivia...thank you for providing a link to my blog re. GWCC! what a pleasant surprise!
i liked your video. you made me smile :)
good luck to you on your transformational weight loss. i will keep myself updated on your progress to see how's that going because it is something that i find so challenging. after a lifetime of eating anything and everything without gaining an ounce i hit 40 and immediately gained 20 pounds that i have been unable to lose.
as far as GWCC, besides it being a daily challenge and that i have not been as successful as others in the total extermination of GWCCing, it nevertheless makes me acutely aware of my speech, the words i use and how i use them on a daily basis. the problem with me is that i have no problem following it when i am at home with my tribe that i can control....the problem lies every morning when i get to work and are surrounded by people who are miserable and want you to hear their complaints, criticisms, gossip, whining. i ignore, i smile, i change conversations, but sometimes i reach my patience and limit with them and lo and behold....there i go..using a part of GWCC...usually the complaint portion of it! oh, but therein lies the challenge. and, so, continue i must....until one day, i will just be.....GWCC free!
good luck to you on both fronts and i will visit often....
I think it is. It is a slim book, but I didn't read the online version, since I'd already bought the paid version. I like the hardcopy version because it seems more "permanent" somehow, even if I'd printed out the online. ENJOY!
Well, you're welcome, Rebecca! I appreciated your post very much.
I think we each have our areas of challenge with GWCC. I am doing really great when I'm not around my husband. But when I am, I turn my bracelet---turn, turn, turn. And there are topics with him that frustrate me to NO end---like my stepchildren---I actually removed my bracelet for 5 minutes yesterday so that I could discuss my stepson "accurately". This is a problem for me that I long to fix. But then I tell myself I will do it as I learn more and more. I have to process stuff every day and each day I feel like I do better---thus I am succeeding for me. I am experiencing the success I want. I just have to do it at my own rate.
I've been GWCC-ing for half a century so I want to be patient with myself.
I'm actually thrilled that I no longer curse at myself every day :) Now THAT's progress!
Thank you for visiting, and I hope you do return often,
Hi, Olivia. I ordered the print version of the book and am reading the online version. Maybe I will have a block of time Sunday to continue where I left off (ch. 4). Not only did I want to support you by reading the book, but hope it can help me both with food obsession and exercise patterns. Love, K

Olivia, is the on-line version of the book, the same as the print version?
