Hi ,
What happened to spring? Did it go to your house? It was here the day we returned from our travels 2 weeks ago and I haven't seen it since! Patience...
I've been busy preparing for Thursday night's free Teleclass and can't wait to get on the line with you - hope you can come!
PLUS this week it's back-to-school for me as I dig into the materials at Cornell University with studies for my Certification in Plant-Based Nutrition. I'll tell you more about it as I go along,
Wait until you get a load of life-sized Barbie. Do you know that if Barbie were
a real person, she would stand six feet tall with a 39" bust, 18" waist, and 33" hips?
Not only that, but she'd have a size 3 shoe.
Sheesh, no wonder we had body image problems. Read all about it in today's Feature Article.
A warm welcome to all the new readers of FitDream Ezine! I am honored to be a part of your health and fitness journey.
P.S. , there's still time to sign up my special upcoming Teleclass " "6 Simple Steps to Conquer Food Cravings, Part 1". This FREE content-rich call and webcast is part of the May Body Transformation Booty Camp Countdown Call scheduled for Thursday, April 14. You can sign up HERE to be sent all the information for accessing this event.
"Because of Lani's system, I have been able to lose over 30 lbs!"
 Lani, because of your system, I have been able to lose over 30 lbs and your Body Transformation Booty Camps are huge part of that success!"
February's Booty Camp was a huge WIN for me: For though I was going through a very trying personal time, I did NOT go back into old habits - due mainly to Booty Camp. I WANT and NEED this "new" lifestyle - I feel so much better!
And to finally lose that love affair with cheese is a miracle. That is a big win for me - plus the realization that I am not even planning for an ice cream 'treat' any more.
I also love the flexibility and effectiveness of the workout schedule. I don't have to try and cram all my routines into one day. I can spread it out more, and not feel as overwhelmed. Sometimes in my day when I am overworked, instead of feeling guilty that I have not yet done a full routine, then I just do a Burst or even just start with some Fit Quickies. And it still works!
My clothes are fitting differently - in a good way. I am always surprised once into the course as to how much I NEED the structure and reinforcement of Booty Camp.
To anyone and everyone who want to become more healthy, feel good, lose weight. get trim, and get in a LIFESTYLE for life, Body Transformation Booty Camp, is the best first step which gives you all of that. And you can keep taking those steps following the set up from Booty camp.
Thank YOU Lani. Once again your session came at a time I so desperately needed that added support, incentive and motivation.

She launched a million eating disorders.
Be your own Barbie.
 I never owned a Barbie doll.
Not that I didn't deeply desire one.
My parents, wanting to give me what I so deeply craved yet being budget minded, got me the budget-variety"Barbie" doll.
Her name was "Mitzi", but let's face it. She just didn't have the panache, class, or sexiness of the original B-goddess.
Heck, she didn't even come with a king-size closet, a car, or even a Ken. So I spent my 'tween years coveting my best friend Andrea's 'real' Barbie collection while making do with Mitzi. Sigh.
All the same, I was just as influenced by the eye-popping proportions and magic of Barbie just as much as the next young girl.
For if Barbie were a real person, she would stand six feet tall with a 39" bust, 18" waist, and 33" hips.
And there's no doubt in my mind that this very imagery launched a million (or more) eating disorders.
Or eating disturbances.
Or at the very least, some dysfunctional body self-images. This should require no explanation. Especially with just a split-second glance at the photograph above of Barbie, inflated to scale.
Inflated, period.
So, what can we do to offset the damage of the Barbie culture, those of us who treasured the doll-playing experience and built the fantasy of our adult lives in those formative years?
1) Take a look at the photo above and forgive yourself for thinking you weren't up to snuff because you didn't look like Barbie. Awareness is the first step. I commend Galia Slayen (pictured with Barbie, above) for going to the trouble to have this life-size replica made because, without words, it says so darn much.
2) Rebirth your self- imagery. One of the cornerstones to body transformation is to create a vivid mental picture of your body ideal. What your personal best has the potential to be, to look like, and to embody energetically.
Without a makeover of how we see ourselves, if we are caught up in a weight problem or negative self image, if we don't overhaul what we've been creating in our mind's eye first, our efforts to transform to radiant health and a great body shape can just go to hell in a handbasket. But let's base it on your real potential, your real personal best, the beauty and vitality within - not on an alien.
More "Get Real, Barbie" statistics:*
- There are two Barbie dolls sold every second in the world.
- The target market for Barbie doll sales is young girls ages 3-12 years of age.
- A girl usually has her first Barbie by age 3, and collects a total of seven dolls during her childhood.
- Over a billion dollars worth of Barbie dolls and accessories were sold in 1993, making this doll big business and one of the top 10 toys sold.
- If Barbie were an actual women, she would be 5'9" tall, have a 39" bust, an 18" waist, 33" hips and a size 3 shoe.
- Barbie calls this a "full figure" and likes her weight at 110 lbs.
- At 5'9" tall and weighing 110 lbs, Barbie would have a BMI of 16.24 and fit the weight criteria for anorexia. She likely would not menstruate.
- If Barbie was a real woman, she'd have to walk on all fours due to her proportions.
- Slumber Party Barbie was introduced in 1965 and came with a bathroom scale permanently set at 110 lbs with a book entitled "How to Lose Weight" with directions inside stating simply "Don't eat." ~ Galia Slayen
You can find Slayen's article and project description in its entirety on Huffington Post.
In January 2007, I was looking for a way to make my peers realize the importance of eating disorders and body image issues. I was frustrated after quitting the cheerleading squad, frustrated with pressures to look and act a certain way and most of all frustrated with the eating disorder controlling my life. Read more>>>
