Susan's Story

by Susan James

Are Your Gifts Hidden Beneath Your Weight?

I am very much like you. I came to this experience with some gifts to express while I was "here". 196 pounds kept me from a lot of those gifts.

The Susan that is writing this now, is not the Susan of 196 pounds.  I was always optimistic and enthusiastic and positive about life; BUT, at 196 pounds there was this other place in me, that just could not find out what 'happy' meant. I had hope, faith, charity, optimism, enthusiasm, but "happy" kept looking for its place, but there was not one.

Happy....which these days, I call "happy beaming" comes from not being hidden. You can't hide happy ! Happy wants to spew and play ! 196 pounds hid that part of me. I play a lot.  I have lots of affection for what I do & I have fun with it.

Yes, I lost the weight, and yes,  I then gave myself permission to display my gifts, and I had and have several, just as you do.

As I began counseling others on weight loss, many times I would move the conIdeal Fitnesstion from food and weight and issues of their life, to what was it they loved to do? Many times these things that folks loved to do, they were not doing in their
lives. And Or, they had never even stopped to ask themselves that kind of question.

And then they would pause and wonder why they never asked themselves that ?

Many times these things they loved to do, were gifts they had. Things they could share with others, and things they could build a livelihood or business on.

I remember one girl, she was in her mid 30's at the time. She really enjoyed 'doing nails'. You know those acrylic nail things. (Can you tell, I don't have acrylic nails?)

Long Story short, she learned how to do those nails. She went to work with a local beautician with her own stand, making her own money, doing what she loved doing.

And then you know what began to happen? She also began to lose weight. BUT, She had lost weight before, doing all the diet stuff and "don't do's".

Then she taught herself to work with the energy instead of the foods and the willpower, and she followed her heart and she lost weight and she kept it off.

Same with me: I lost the weight. I developed my gifts.  I followed my heart. I am happy beaming.......and oh, yes, I'm still that famous size 9 I scream about all over the Internet!

You have to, have to, have to, do the energy work to change from what you have taught yourself to get to where you are now, and to move from it in ease, and not so much discipline and willpower, and cant have this and that......THAT'S ALL BACKWARDS ! It defeats you before you get started !!

Are you ready ?  Yes or No.  (If you need some help with writing, then just ask me for *The Sword of Three's*. email me: sjames@rica.net) (end/sj)
