In a world that measures everything by the numbers ... from Janice Taylor, Life & Wellness Coach, Certified Hypnotist, Author, Columnist, Seminar Leader and 50-Pound Big-Time-Loser.
Okay ... my personal ... WEIGHTY CONFESSION!
When I was losing weight (vs. being 'on' maintenance a.k.a. the mini-see-saw), I was obsessed with the scale and my measurements. If the scale didn't budge, I took out the tape measure and quickly wrapped it tight around my waist or thighs, manipulating the numbers.
Then one day, Our Lady of Weight Loss spoke to me (again)! And she said, "For goodness sake, stop measuring your self worth by the numbers. YOU are beyond measure."
Holy Light Bulb Moment! I went into "Edward Scissorhands" mode. Scissors in hand, I cut up the tape measure into 6 1/2 inch pieces - made bracelets - and have been wearing them ever since.
Photographed here - draped around the 'neck' of my inner-doll, having a light-bulb moment of her own!
Isn't it good to know that in a world that measures everything by the numbers ... from your height, weight and waist to your BMI ... from your age to your salary ...
that YOU ARE ~ BEYOND MEASURE!
Spread the word, NOT the icing!
