Christmas is always considered one of the most stress filled times of the year. How do you combat that urge to overspend, overeat and over-party. As I sit in my cold apartment in a small village in an earthquake ravaged region, in China, where people lost nearly everything, I reflect on why we must have so much "stuff". This nation is the world's largest supplier of "stuff". Do you worry how it will all turn out and yet be able to have a wonderful time of celebration with family and friends? This book might offer some solutions for you. Remember friends and family members will remember the laughs and the games with a vague recollection of good food, and even less of expensive gifts. Don't worry about the stuff? Go and roll in the snow or sit with a grandchild watching the snow fall, or maybe like here in Australia, join the family for a game of backyard cricket or football. Happy holiday season to you all.

As a 50 year old woman with three grown daughters and grandmother of three beautiful granddaughters, I recently found  I needed to get well and healthy. Diet, motivation, fitness, health these were all words I didn't like but was familiar with. I had to make some changes to my life and well being. I have always been conscious of not putting on weight as I have a family history of obesity but needless to say as the 40's came and went so did the kilos or pounds. Last year I was told by my doctor, "You're too fat! Loose weight or expect a heart attack." I had not considered myself obese but according to the weight scales for size, age and sex I was obese!! What to do? After listening to many self help books, tapes etc. I discovered I needed to make not only a diet change but a mental change. Diets keep you on a merry-go-round of weight loss and gain. So I decided – I was not going to diet but would change my thinking about health and fitness and in effect change my lifestyle. Anybody out there hear what I am saying about the struggles of weight loss!!
