A criticism is just a really bad way of making a request, so why don't you just make the request?"
—Diane Sawyer
Your Private Notebook
Did you ever try to request a change of behavior instead of criticizing someone? If so, how did it work out? What did you learn? If not, what's inhibiting you from making a direct request? Fear of the other person's anger, being disappointed she/he can't meet your request or something else?
Add Your Thoughts
This is a place to come and relax, learn some other ways to eat and learn other ways to be in the world. Below you will find some meditative music. All you have to do is watch and listen and let your mind flow. If a thought comes in, acknowledge it and move on. Good luck on your (our) journey.

Welcome to Weight Loss Coach Sherrie's Blog!
WELCOME EVERYONE. It is time to learn a "NEW WAY OF BEING IN THE WORLD."
I am currently trying a new way of eating (forget about that nasty "D" word!). I am following the "Schwarzbein Principle" and learning ways to focus on creativity and taking care of ME. I am currently in Body Blissmas, a program started by Jill Badonsky. As I learn to focus on healthy eating and being happy and creative, I would like to help you do the same.
