Janice & Dr. Norris Weigh-In: Hungry for LAUGHTER?

Continuing the Dr. Norris and Janice 'blog-O-sation' ...
... Dr. Norris says, "OK. Stop. I'm all into making weight loss fun, but I need to get serious now. IS WHAT YOU'RE HUNGRY FOR ... HEALTH? ... or PLEASURE?"

I don't get it, Dr. Norris? It's not an "either/or," is it? I'm totally in favor of pleasure! Surely, one can find pleasure outside the cake, ice cream and potato arena, yes? Health/Pleasure: One isn't mutually exclusive of the other.

Anyway, my point is that we can decorate our lives with glitter, vibrant colors, love, laughter and positive energy. Whether my mother and I have 'real' cake or not, is irrelevant. The cake isn't the entertainment. The cake isn't the focal point of the day. The cake is merely cake. We don't give it not even a smidgeon of power.

I'm offering a new point of view. Bringing crayons to my mother's with a cake-coloring book is silly, funny and joy-filled!

The point is that you can laugh it up while you slim down. And you don't have to be (too) serious!

O, the Oprah Magazine said ... "Janice Taylor is a kooky kind of genius. See if her idiosyncratic diet plan works for you!" They got it!!!

I look forward to our next 'blog-O-conversation.'

From one big-time-loser to another ... Dr. Norris, You Rock!

Janice & Dr. Norris Weigh-In: What Are You Hungry For?

birthday cake coloring book.jpg... continuing my 'blog-O-sation' with Dr. Norris ... Let There Be Cake!!!

Dr. Norris ... speaking of mothers ... have you seen the video of my 92-year-young mother, Harriet, Queen of Cake??? Oh My Goodness!!! Cake reigned supreme in our house. It was the centerpiece of all happenings and relationships.

My mother baked a strawberry shortcake for birthdays, lemon cakes for my brother's homecoming, chocolate cake for my father, etc. etc. etc.! My mother said that there's no point in having coffee without cake. SHE was HUNGRY for CAKE!!!

I know this might seem silly, but when we visit my mother now, I bring 'sheet cake,' for us to color, as in with crayons! (birthday cake coloring book.pdf)

At the end of the day, What Are WE Hungry For?
LOVE, FUN, LAUGHTER, HAPPINESS, RELATIONSHIP, and pretty colors! And since we've always communicated through and with cake, I don't see any need to take it out of the picture! So rather than eliminate cake, we just use a different form of it!

I truly believe that permanent 'fat' removal a.k.a. weight loss takes a good deal of creativity. Creative planning on all levels!

And I am always hungry for platters of creativity and someone to play with, laughter and smiles! Are you smiling?? Feel free to download the cake and color it ... and by the way, you don't have to stay within the lines if you don't want to!

I'm on a mission ... did you know??? To make weight loss fun.

Spread the word ... NOT the icing,
Janice
