ZOT 03.04.07 - Sunday workout...new updates

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Sun, 04 Mar 2007 06:55:37 +0000

Peanut butter and cottage cheese...BAD. Too much in these sodium rich foods. I also changed back to an elliptical machine that does NOT have the swinging arms. Did it today and really sweated great. A lot of things that I've done in January have seemed to have held me back and retained water.

ZOT 03.03.07 - K keep on going!

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Sat, 03 Mar 2007 17:23:32 +0000

WAY TO GO! Thanks for the support and keep rolling along your weight loss. Average people do lose a lot of weight each and every day. Be one of them!

ZOT 2.25.07 - 5 weeks left!

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Sun, 25 Feb 2007 10:36:35 +0000

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Fri, 16 Feb 2007 11:41:20 +0000

Post workout after my diziness. Nothing can stop me. I took a few days off, deflated the muscles, ate more calories and BAM, the fat is melting off once again... I received my new New Balance 991 shoes (2 pairs; they were on sale!) and am feeling great and HAPPY. That's the main thing.

ZOT 2.14.07 - Happy Valentine's day; moving...?

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Wed, 14 Feb 2007 15:42:36 +0000

It's getting close to the end of the 1st quarter of this year. Hard to believe, but we only have about 5.5 weeks left and our 1st quarter is gone. That means that you should be close to 1/4 of your way to your goal for 2007. Yup...that's right! Time flies huh?

ZOT 2.12.07 - I over did it and am taking a few days off...

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 16:49:26 +0000

Some R&R for the next few days will do me good.

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Thu, 08 Feb 2007 14:29:38 +0000

I talk about how I received a package filled with stuff from yesteryear. I guess a time capsule of sorts that allowed me to associate some music with the time when I was fit and having a fun time during life. David Jones (Monkees) meeting my family and the Jesse Cook concert in Broward County tomorrow night.

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Sat, 13 Jan 2007 03:25:23 +0000

Have you been through an inner struggle and didn't know how to proceed? I've been through this countless times. Distraction seems to be the best medicine. Trigger something in yourself that allows you to move away from your challenge.

Jan 4, 2007 Why?

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 16:36:15 +0000

Weakness, cravings...Should we really be thinking a little differently to get what we want? I think we take too much for granted.

Wow...I just kept talking to myself and refusing myself to be badgered. I met a psychiatrist who really helped me understand the human mind. Tony...he's a retired Duke professor and about 72. What an incredible man. I have a feeling that I'll be sharing quite a few of Tony's tips in the days, weeks, months and yes...years to come. Best of luck during your holiday season. Remember; YOU ultimately have to live with your decisions.

Dec 17, 2006 Phone call - Back on the game, felling jacked and great. I miss working out.

Meditation mix - Relax and visualize...

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Wed, 13 Dec 2006 01:07:43 +0000

The purpose of this particular mix is to get you quiet and to experience where you've been and where you want to be. There are 18.5 minutes of music and I've described the selections in the following manner. YOUR description may be different of course. Please realize that the final piece is NOT as quiet as the others. This is the final piece and the purpose was to "jolt" you out of your thought and into an incredibly euphoric mood. Enjoy. 1. Remember: This is where I sob (literally) and feel sad about where I am. The pain, the insults, the inconvenience of seats, my health. I go back to February of this year and my doctor's visit. A shocking visit where I was told that I would die. What is your memory holding onto? Revisit your minds and let out your sadness. This can be very cleansing. Be cautious doing this; as emotions may run very high. 2. Realizing: I am still unhappy, but realize the errors that I've made. I'm looking toward a positive future and of course health. The clarinet is a "New" voice in my mind and a welcomed friend. He is there to comfort me and assure me that I'll be OK. We get to know each other and begin to map out a plan for the future. 3. Energy: At about 5:45 the pulsating synths come in and soon after, I am welcomed by a huge sun. The flutes and other orchestral instruments welcome me with open arms and encourage me to continue realizing what I need to do. I am encouraged. I hope you are too! As the flute and oboe banter about, I am reminded of old friends and fond memories. A beautiful ending with a wonderful chord. 4. Proceed: The calming piano along with a soft beat indicate progress with my team of motivators. I am making progress and can visualize my clothing fitting better and looser. A soothing ride and very positive. 5. Here: I am finally here and am saying goodbye to my team of motivators. I undersatand that they must leave so I can take the torch and continue on my own. There are no babysitters, no helpers, just me. Although we have support, I am the ultimate determiner of my fate and cannot fail. I aprehensively pick up the torch being reassured by my mind that I can do it and that I, me, Dave am responsible and capable. 6. Strongly Standing: A strong piano comes in indicating that I have taken a stance and am very capable and energetic during my journey. Confidence, leadership and loyalty beam from me. I am doing it! My mind is proud and reminds me to.... 7. "I gotta go workout": Pump it up and go workout!

Dec 11, 2006 - Tips for getting DEDICATED to your goal!

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Mon, 11 Dec 2006 18:28:39 +0000

Animals and insects have an instinct to "do the right thing". Why don't humans? Unfortunately, culture and society gets in the way as well as media and interaction. This is where we need to be steadfast and dedicate our LIVES to being healthy for OURSELVES, nobody else. Have a wonderful workout!

To have support like this is a little overwhelming and welcomed. You guys are wonderful, caring and friendly people. It shows in your actions and words. If only we could start a company...Hmmmmm.

Nov 22, 2006 Phone call Update

podcast@zap120.com (Zap 120 & Dave O) — Wed, 22 Nov 2006 09:43:23 +0000

Remember, that YOU are the only one in control here. It does you NO good to give into eating thousands of calories tomorrow - if you do, you'll enjoy the immediate satisfaction of fats and carbs, BUT Friday, you'll regret it and do a tailspin back into depression - trust me. Treat tomorrow as the first day of the rest of your HEALTHY life and really try to think differently. I just had a moment that I'll share. I came in from the backyard and had two veggie burgers, hummus and was craving a crunchy thing. I grabbed the OREO bag from the pantry and started to separate the sealed bag. NOBODY said a word and frankly, nobody would have cared; after all, it's MY body and I'm an adult. I was hoping that my wife would have said "STOP NOW and put those down!", like she always does. She looked at me for a second, then continued having her conversation. There was no feeling of "really wanting something that you can't have". It was now MY decision. I went to the cabinet an popped my multi vitamin since I forgot to this morning in the flurry of activity and logistics. After that, downed 4 oz. of pomegranete juice and voila, forgot all about the carb, crunch thing - apparently I need to still practice crave control so I WIN every time - this time it was a close call but I CHOSE not to eat the cookies. A combination of luck and decision making. Have a GREAT Thanksgiving and we'll talk next week!
