Summertime

Summertime... And we are posed with an age old question here at Latitude.

"How do I loose those 10, 15, 20 or whatever number of pounds I've been wanting to loose forever?"

Weight loss, weight loss, weight loss!!!

So the other day, I was thinking about how to help people get the results they want.

"How do we help our members succeed!?"

We always want to deliver for our clients, to help them achieve what they came in to achieve.
It can prove to be challenging for everyone involved.

One Latitude coach’s philosophy is simple. He doesn't take on a client that isn't ready to be taken on. Huh?
I, on the other hand, will try to convince EVERYONE that there is nothing better than fitness & well being!
My thinking is, if they walked into our fitness club, they want to be fit!

Hmmm, I may be wrong, at least in some cases...
Very often, people will come in and say they want results. But they just aren't ready to do what it takes.
Sound like someone you may know?

So before this coach takes on a new client, he asks them three questions to see if they are ready to be his client.

"Are you ready to commit your time to your health & fitness program?"

"Are you willing to commit the energy, do your own cardio vascular exercise, and prepare quality food for yourself?"

"Are you ready to invest your money in your health & fitness program?"

If the answer is "No" to any one of these questions, he refuses to train them! Wow!

Most people will easily spend hundreds of dollars a month on restaurants & movies.
They will spend more on their car payments & insurance than they would ever dream of spending on their own health.
Why? Where did we learn that a car has more value than our own health?
Personally, I would rather my body be a Ferrari than to park one outside my door!
But that's just me.

Now, I want you to know, all of this coach's clients get results.
They all get what they came in for!

So if you are frustrated by those extra pounds, I want you to know that we can help you, and we want to!
All of us at Latitude are waiting for the next person who is ready!

Much Love,
Vered.


By the way I have lost another 6 pounds in the past few weeks
I have one more week left to my 16 transformation.
Total weight lost to date: 36 pounds!

Stay tuned, in the next few weeks I will be sharing some tips on weight loss.

The way you make you feel

Be yourself. Pleeeeeeeze!

Today, as I think back on MJ's life,
I am inspired. This man lived larger than life!
Though many people may have judged him & the things he did, he did them!
Whether people liked it or not.
I have to admit that that is very attractive & uplifting to me.

As I look around facebook & twitter & read people's status' & stuff they comment on, I know people want to live great lives!
Yet, many people I meet on the outside of FB & Tw do not resemble in any way the persona they display online.
What's up with that?

This is a shout out to all of you to live as the person you always wanted to be!
NO FEAR!!
I would love to see all of these inspired people on FB acting that way in real life.
Smiling, hugging, singing, being funny, sharing as we often display on our profiles.

MJ lived life as a lion, created unimaginable beauty & shared his heart with all of us no matter how painful it was at times for him.
He gave of himself as no entertainer, in my opinion, has ever before.

He will live as a source of inspiration in my life forever. To kick myself in the butt & keep on creating endlessly!
No matter what, there is more...

I would like to dedicate this blog to MJ.
Thank you for the years of dance, music, entertainment, innovation & the sheer pleasure.
You gave me a place to go & dream, become & display more of who I always wanted to be.

Thank you for "The way you make me feel!"
Much Peace & Love,
Vered.
