IT'S
YOUR TURN NOW!
(Book)
Although I have been
published in numerous books, magazines, newspapers and videos, this is my first
full-length book. This is the step by step process that I have been through in
changing major areas of my life. I open with famous success stories of people
who were once labeled as "failures"...that was me too! Then I tell my
personal story of "From Troubled Teen to Teacher of the Year and all that
my poor parents and family had to go through with me- the drinking, running
away, and even attempted suicide.
Each
chapter is a step by step guide of how to take the personal issues of your past
and present and actually turn them into opportunities to change. I include ways
to begin, how to focus, how to implement change, how to get help, how to stay
motivated, how to balance your life physically, mentally, spiritually and
emotionally. My prayer is that God will use this book to help others through the
tragedies and stumbling blocks of their lives into the rich, rewarding, and
successful life He wants us to have. If I can change from a 250 pound suicidal
high school dropout- anyone can turn around! That's why I titled it... IT'S
YOUR TURN NOW!

HOW I LOST 100 LBS. AND GAINED A NEW LIFE (CD)
This CD deals specifically with the issue of
being overweight all my life. I was born fat, grew up as a fat child, a fat teen
and didn't want to live by age 23. I have tried EVERY diet, gimmick and aid
possible- even pills, shots, hypnosis and all the popular diet programs. It
wasn't about food. I was stuffing down my feelings and was mad at the world. I
hated myself and couldn't do anything about it – so I thought. I begin with my last suicide attempt when I finally screamed out to God and
surrendered my entire life to Him- physically, mentally, spiritually and
emotionally.
I share twenty five
scriptures God gave me dealing directly with food and overeating. In two years I
lost over 100 pounds and I am in the top 1% of people who have kept this much
weight off for over 25 years. I now eat to live- I don't live to eat. I have no
gimmicks, but I share specifically the routine, foods and prayer life that work
for me. I have also worked for twenty years with girls and women who are
compulsive overeaters, anorexic and bulimic, and I share some of their success
stories here too. There is no reason why with God's help you can't also be a
normal size, healthy and energetic as God intended us to be. I am no longer
obsessed with food- but can eat anything I want... He simply changed my desires
and I believe He wants to do the same for you!

THE GIFT OF HOPE (CD)
This is my personal testimony from the beginning up until now. I
share my upbringing in a "good home" with a church-going family, small
town
USA
. I had all the right pieces in place but I fell through the cracks. I share my
innermost thoughts and fears as I was deemed a complete failure, and how I
rebelled against my parents, society and everything having to do with God. I
share how I tried everything in this world to find happiness- drinking, drugs,
relationships, food, education, dabbling in various cults,
Vietnam
protesting, education and philosophies, even witchcraft. My marriage of 34
years began with near divorce!
I
especially love to share my story with young people just as I have with my high
school students for the past twenty-eight years I have taught high school and
college. It wasn't an accident that I had a teacher at age 16 that told me
"God was going to do something great with my life" – and then I
became a teacher. This is the before and after story that I believe each
one of us can have, no matter how far you have gone down the wrong road and no
matter how far you feel you have to go. I end with a simple strategy
for a balanced life that ends the personal struggle we have with ourselves and
with God. I pray that this CD is indeed the gift of hope needed for one more
struggling soul. There is a personal message by my parents, now in their 70's
