We are to the wire gang.
This is the last week of the year and
the opportunity for you to develop, and commit
to your goals for this new year is coming to an
END.
We will miss all the shots that we don’t take.
We will never arrive to an unplanned destination.
Put it on paper. Keep it in front of you.
Then go and accomplish it.
Wishing you the best now and always.

I just want to share the road where I do my daily walk.
I try to do 4.5 miles every day and it works out ok for the most part.
This is the time I use to clear my mind. The time I use to get centered
and plan for the rest of the day. I also use this time to ground my self.
At times the urgent takes the place of the important and we must
be able to differentiate the one from the other.
Whatever your routine is make sure that you keep it in mind.
Stay committed to you and your goals do not start your day
by losing the first battle to the comfy bed.
As always I hope for the best for you all.

Ensenada, Baja Mexico
We all have people who influence us in different ways and directions.
I would like to introduce to you Benito Juarez. This is someone whom
I was thought to admire and respect. Actually When I became a Free-Mason
I purposely joined the most conservative lodge named after him. Little did I
knew that several family members were part of this lodge. It was very nice.
My point however is that we must pay attention to what we want and also,
to those around us.. We must never forget our goals and dreams and by
keeping them ever-present we will see the opportunities to make those
dreams and goals a reality.
What are your goals?? Do the people around you know them? Let me
share something, recently I was asking about a new product and a couple of folks
within my circle of friends were using it, and immediately recommended
who I could talk to not just to purchase but to join this program and try to
sell, and market. All I had to do was ask. At 17 years old I knew I wanted to
join a lodge and I went through hell to get a sponsor when, had I asked my
circle I would have found out that my uncle was the leader of the one particular
lodge I was interested in. Go Figure.
Gang… Take advantage of who and where you are and ask, ask others
for help and assistance. Also, Make sure that you offer help and assistance
to others, never know when you might be just the perfect resource
someone needs to take the next step on their journey.
I hope you all are having a great time and in your journey.
Stay Focused Stay Successful.

And my liquid Awesome makes me better,
and better, and better and well you know.
The funny thing is that it can do the same for us all.
You have it, they have it, WE HAVE IT.
The thing is to make use of this Liquid Awesome!!
So what the heck are we waiting for.
Let us go and be even more awesome.
Gang Stay Focused Stay Successful.

Funny how people forget about their contribution when the results
are less than good, but how fast and permanently they make themselves
part of anything good that has been accomplished by anyone.
The way I see it gang is that we do this by ourselves for ourselves.
Try finding a gym partner and you can spend weeks asking, and in the end
you find yourself going to the gym by yourself. How about this one:
You start a diet program any diet program and everyone and their aunt
have an opinion about said program but as you start making progress
here they are…
Anyway do not forget that you can and should be able to trust and count
on yourself. Now Go Do It.
Gang Stay Focus Stay Successful.

Set yourself free.
Throw away the chains that keep you.
Work on being free from all negativity.
It is a choice so I ask you:
Will you take the steps?
Will you refuse to partake of the
banquet of negativity placed before you
every day by so many?
I hope you do because we are destined
for greatness. We must grow, but first
we must free ourselves of the load put upon
us by those that would have us be the same
as them for always.

And now a little big attention to the “Chestal” area.
Yes I know that Chestal is not a real word but is sounds FUNNY.
This is a basic set up and excellent in my humble opinion
example of a routine for beginners.
If you are a bit more experienced you then know how to
“Doctor” this moves and exercises to work better based
on your wants needs and experience.
With this and with all new exercises please ask help and
guidance until you can master them.
This is one routine that will send you home happy.
I have to admit that I continue to be challenged by my
Leg Day. I do it to the best of my abilities but I can not
remember a single time I actually enjoyed it. If anyone has
a routine for Leg Day that you think is great please share
because that is the one that I hear the most gripping about.
Gang keep up the good work and remember that all that
you do for a better you, benefits you but also your friends
and family.

Happy Monday Gang!!
One of the rules that I found is worth
of us always keeping is: “Never fail on Monday”
We must work out every Monday!
We must keep our Diet every Monday!
We must take our pills every Monday!
It has been shown in studies just how much
the “Monday Effect” can impact the rest of
the week., it seems that both monkeys and
humans tend to somehow be more inclined
not to follow through when Monday is not
addressed correctly.
Anyway I hope you have a great and
very productive week.

The way I see it is: “Even Superman has his Kryptonite.”
And we are not as bad ass as Superman so we must be
“Super” careful. I know that French bread at Walmart
would kick my behind every single time so I avoid it.
I know that if I don’t do my cardio before I do weights
I will not really do either.
It is in the knowing, and knowledge of our weak areas
that our chance for success comes.
Acknowledge your strengths, and be mindful of your
weak areas, and you are half way there to be successful.
Make your plan, work your plan, watch the pounds drop.
Simple right?
Not Really. What is easy to do is easy not to do.
Want it bad enough and you will do it.
Jose G. Osuna
Remember how easy it used to be to
call on your friends and get to misbehaving?
How come it becomes so hard to find a partner
to work out and hold you accountable?
I have been trying for quite a while to find someone
to go to the gym with me and have been unsuccessful.
For many, what we do is difficult and weird or at least
inconvenient. The bad part is that as we go on
working out and exercising we get used to
doing it on our own and it makes it difficult later to
let anyone in the circle.
An accountability partner is always a good idea
so keep trying to find someone. And be patient
with them by the way. Remember WE are weird.
Keep the weirdness going gang who wants to be normal.
Normal is broke, Normal is fat, Normal is dull,
Normal is what NOT to be.
By the way. Those three monsters in the picture are
my kids Riley, Levi, and Logan.

Since we will all fall “eventually”
we might as well plan on learning.
A fall, mistake or lesson is only bad
if we learn nothing from it.
We must remember that either we earn
or we learn. YES it is a win, win so don’t
let fear of failure keep you from trying.
We are on this together so if I can be
of any assistance reach out, write me at

Every step counts. Every decision matters.
Gang., we make or break goals with our actions
or the lack of. We know what we want and
we know why we want it. Then why the heck
is it so hard at times? Why are we so weak
that innocent chocolate and delicious pizza
can whip us into submission.
I don’t really know and I tell you I have given
it a lot of thought.
What I do know is that I will try again and
again until I win. Sooooo the question is:
Will you try with me? Will you rinse and repeat
when needed and try again with me?
I hope so. I will be here.

Why wait for tomorrow?
For those of us who are on the road to a better US there is no place for tomorrow., not at the price of a better life.
We do not make excuses for others or for ourselves and that makes us at times the target of jokes, slander, abuse, good and bad intentions and it is our job to maintain the higher ground.
Zero tolerance!! For ourselves when we hesitate between the scheduled and the accidental. When we fail to do what is important and instead we allow the urgent to rule.
To fail to follow our diet just because “it is just a little piece”
For not taking our vitamins and medicine as prescribed instead of “at times”
Tomorrow is the biggest thief. The biggest reason why goals, diets, dreams, wishes and desires do not happen as they should.
As a Hispanic I am very familiar with the term “Manana” Manana does not mean tomorrow., it means “Not Now”
So I ask you If not today, if not now,Then When?
How about right now? How does right now sounds to you?
All of the best for you.
Jose G. Osuna
Share the love gang. Whichever your favorite social media is.
This gives me hope.
This makes me think that you and I regardless of
how flawed or great we think we are…. Well we have
a chance. There are possibilities in that even if we have
been taken for granted or people not only did not keep
their promises but failed us there is a future.
Today we end a season. This can mean a lot or
it can mean nothing. It is up to us.
What are we waking up with tomorrow?
Ideas and thoughts of power and progress OR
feelings of lost and less.
I hope and pray that we will all tomorrow JUMP
out of bed and run to meet the day and
the new opportunities.
Gang we know how to be and do good….
How about we push for great.
What if we work on excellent.
We deserve it and we know how to do it.
I am here. I have been here. I will be here.
I know what it is like when people promise and
offer to “Be There” only to be missing in action
when we actually need them.
That will not be me.
I will be here tomorrow like every day at 06:30
It is not 05:30 and it is not 05:40
It is 06:30 every day regularly from Monday to
Saturday and every now and then I will throw
a Sunday but personally Sundays are for
God, Family and friends. NO, Not necessarily
for church as I have found that God wants me
in other places at times.
Let’s end this year with a bang and start
the new year even stronger.
Gang I wish for all the best for each and every one of you.

How important is Mindset?
I have learned that in the weight loss
game it is central if we want to truly
make progress. I have also learned that
with out the proper mindset weight gain
will always be the result.
Find your Why and keep it present, that
will begin the ball rolling to obtain the
proper mindset.
Do not give up, Do not ever give up.

Sad but we all have something within us that
at some point and time controlled or at least
affected our life or the ability to enjoy it.
By developing our daily routines we strengthen
our selves not just physically but also spiritually
and with that we can move on towards a better
series of tomorrows.
Keep your goals and commitments present.
Go for your walk and do your exercises
as you said you would., and follow your diet too.
Learn to keep your word., to others but more importantly
To Your Self.
Our project is our life and body and both are
within our grasp to improve or mess up.

Do you at times feel like saying this to some people?
OK… Maybe it is just me.
I just hate it when people think that we must
hear and share of their opinion.
Sorry but I have no patience or tolerance
for people like that. Maybe, just maybe
you are a lot nicer than me and you think
that if you just play nice maybe they will
eventually get the idea… I have news for you
they will not.
So what to do?? I put a stop to it right away.
I have actually chosen to move away from
my siblings because I could not tolerate the
small mindedness and constant negativity.
I have ended relationships and left behind
negative and non-supportive friends
Sorry., I just have no room for it.
I hope you can protect your goals and dreams
from the negativity and attacks of others and
continue to fight on. Do not be a casualty of political
correctness. Just Say NO MORE.

It is incredible the impact that at times other people around us have in our life.
We can not choose our family but I tell you if someone from your family brings
you down it is time for you to choose just how much time you spend with him/her.
If you have a friend whom you love but is poisoning your efforts it is time for you to
love from a distance., a safe distance.
Many will say “I will help you” “I will support you” “I am here for you” and they will.,
until you actually need them. Then the diarrhea of excuses happens.
Choose the people around you. Your life, dreams and hopes are way too important.
Find and associate with persons who bring value to your life.

Sadly many times it takes a disappointment
to realize and figure out short comings.
We must be aware and continually look
for what is missing in our daily life.
We need people who care enough for us
that they show us with their actions that they
are not just lip service and when they say
“I am here for you” or “I will support you”
they mean it.
Regardless the responsibility for our life
rests squarely on our shoulders.
And here is where love and gratitude
comes to the front as I think of the one woman
who has made the biggest difference in my life
My wife Amy whose patience, loyalty, love
And strength has made my life better.
Lot’s Of Love Babe you are always present
When so many others choose not to.
Let’s keep our eyes open and continue
to push for growth and continued progress
Jose G. Osuna
All we need is one or two reasons and
a commitment to better health and a better life.
The thing is that commitment is not an easy
to get condiment. We have to actually love
ourselves more than we enjoy sleeping late.
Love ourselves more than that extra piece of pie.
Love ourselves more than……
What is our excuse? Because the sooner
we figure it out we can make some progress.
We can become the best version of us there is.
Gang. There is only one place in the world where
Self Love Comes From. No one else can get it or
give it to us.
We can, We should.

do not because I want what others can’t have.

This day and every day is a great chance for a
fresh start or a new goal.
Happy Monday to you all and do not forget

There is a lot of info out there some of it
good and some not so much.
Here are 9 tips that work IF, IF
you work.
Gang stay focus remain successful.
Jose G. Osuna
Ok Gang some good easy to digest info.
We have talked about goals and vision before but I want to once again touch on the importance of starting with the end in mind as Steven Covey told us so many times.
What is it that we want? What is it that we are looking for?
What is that image or picture of ourselves that we have in our mind?
If we can not conjure in a moment what it is that we are working for the chances of us reaching it will be improbable, unlikely.
Mr. Eric Thomas tells a tale of someone who wants to be successful and he trough the tale makes it clear that in order to get there he must want it more badly than wanting to breath while under water.
That is wanting it pretty darn bad.
Clarity of purpose gives us the certainty needed to accomplish a well defined goal. But.. In order to have a clear and well defined goal we must first have a vision.
My vision is at this point a cholesterol level of less than 100. A blood pressure that can not be used to inflate small balls. A weight range of 190 to 210 pounds. And the image is my size of pants of when I was a single man 32 x 30. Not perfect but perfect for me.
That is what I use as my vision. That and a new pair of pants that hang on the door for me.
I will wear them for my birthday next year. I will wear them when I go to a show and dinner in Vegas. That I know.
Find your vision. Keep it ever present and do not let go of it.
All the success to you always.
Jose G. Osuna
Facebook? Twitter? Instagram? Yes please share!!!
Recently I did a repost on Facebook about
books I had read in the past and I was asked
about the books I was currently working on.
This books are an example of what I read on daily
basis. I try to stay up to date on Social Media and
any worthwhile new authors. Mayann McFadden is
a good example of good and up-coming (to me) author.
I keep my Kindle handy as I keep well over 400 books
in it that I read for pleasure or reference also, I use it
to access scripture as it makes it easy to read.
I have a deep love for books and reading
has helped me grow as an individual. It was with
deep pain that I learned of the passing of Gabriel Garcia
Marquez who was and still is a big influence for me.
I still get excited reading Tom Sawyer and get deeply
involved when I read and re-read The Mysterious Stranger both
from Mark Twain. But also, I was enthralled with Harry Potter
and will always be thankful to J K Rowlng for teaching me more
than so many other authors that I as an individual or as a
writer am limited only by my own crazy and some times stupid
self imposed limitations.
Never forget that the person who will not read is in no better
position than the person who can’t read.
Few things will have a bigger impact in your life as reading can.
Gang keep learning keep growing keep improving.

What are we made of? What is within us that
would push us up in the morning so that we
might accomplish the goals and plans that will
make our life something to be proud of.
There are challenges and they will be around
for as long as we want to accomplish and grow.
The difference is in how we confront the challenges.
We are made to succeed and we can if we
pay the price.
How much have you increased the distance
of your walks? For how much longer can you
work out? How much better do you feel?
When we pay the price we increase our stamina
and strength. Let’s do it. Let’s be better.

Good Day Everyone.
Have you ever been confronted by the “Salad Police”?
When people learn of my efforts to lose weight and the path (low carb, low sodium, high protein.) I have chosen I always get the roll of the eyes and the friendly “Really?” It is funny because when I explain to them that it was this approach that has given me the best and biggest or should I say smallest results; they usually all of a sudden get very interested in learning just a little bit more. It is almost magical because as they hear the numbers they just can’t let go. What are the numbers? 330 #’s to 235 #’s in less than 4 months. That was my first big success with dieting. Now… Success does not mean wining and I proved that by going right back and past the 330 #’s to my top weight of 361 #’s.
Anyway back to salads.
I like salads. I like veggies both raw and cooked but I have a problem with salads and lettuce in particular. Because of my lap band it just does not move. I get stuck and it has to come right up. I have tried chewing longer, different dressings, more of this, more of that, less of this, less of that and it still does not work. So I have tried different ways to eat greens and vegetables.
Anyone else likes creamy mashed potatoes? I do. I discovered that steaming cauliflower and then running them trough my supper duper milk shake making machine and adding just a bit of sour cream and pepper makes for a most acceptable substitute. I have done similar things with kale, spinach, broccoli, celery, and many other veggies and then use any leftovers for sauces or soups and by doing that I increase the amount of veggies I consume. But it is not salads. You know what it is that I miss a lot? my favorite comfort food broccoli spears with thousand island dressing sprinkled with salt and pepper. Boy do I miss that.
Ok. I took the liberty of adding the cartoon below and while I know and admit that Atkins is not for everyone I know and can tell you that for a hard case like mine has always been it worked and, as I have incorporated it to my lap band regime it stopped the gaining of weight and has helped my slow progress to my goal weight. Please take it as what it is a cartoon you do not have to agree.
Till the next time.
All of the best for all of you.
Jose G. Osuna
I just wanted to give a little perspective.
I just want to have you think about those
things that at times carry so much weight
in our day-to-day life.
Let us figure out what is important.
Let us figure out what is worthy of our
time and effort.
Let us understand WHO is worth of
keeping around and affecting our life.

so let us remain focus and successful.

Weight loss is not a once size fits all
and it is not a one strategy wins it all either.
We must exercise but we must also
keep an eye on what we eat.
One with out the other will not give us the
results we are looking for.
Even for those of us with a lapband
the integrating of both approaches is
a must and absolutely necessary
in order to reach our goals.
Be clear about where it is that you
want to go and stay the course.
By the way this approach works for
weight loss and for other things as well.
Gang Stay focus stay successful.

Cuts and adjustments must be made in order to keep things
in order. Not everyone will walk across the finish line with us.
Some people will choose to take a different road and it is ok.
Others will try to stay around but will be unable to do it.
Some we must cut and send on their way and that too is ok.
Pay attention to those close to you and figure out what is their
place in the big picture. Your big picture.
You see it is not that people are there only to serve you
but that they are there to BE PART OF. If they are not willing
or able then why are they in your life???
Be Fair and be honest about you and others.
Are you being part of others life? Are you sharing, learning,
teaching, being present? Are those around you doing the same
things for you??? If you or them are not then it is time for
removal and separation.
Living in honesty stay focus stay successful.

This little guys are Bear and Peter.
They have the same addiction my wife has
and that is Mountain Dew.
Just like them and my wife WE all have
some foods or drinks or habits that we carry
with us much as a pet.
One of the things we need to do is realize and
be honest about our habits both good and bad.
We can not change or adjust something we are
not aware of.
My challenge was Diet Coke. I could drink Diet Coke
all day every day but now I go months with out drinking one.
So I suggest that you do some soul searching and
figure out what is there that is holding you down or
keeping you from making a difference and work on
being rid of it.

When it comes to weight loss there are always
ups and downs. It is a known fact for those of us
that have gone through Weight Loss Surgery or
the more common term “Lap Band Surgery”
that our bodies will react differently at different times.
There are times when regardless of us following
the rules to a T we do not lose an ounce and,
at times we get on the scale more in jest than
expecting any weight loss and are floored by
the number on the scale.
While at times we will be unable to follow our diet
for a variety of reasons we must ALWAYS
keep our dreams and goals in mind.
Gang it is our life and our health., let’s make
the most of it.
Weigh the food, drink the water, take your meds,
don’t forget your vitamins. Do What You Know
Is Expected Of You and the results will show up.
Let’s continue with this project we have set for us
and know that I am here as a resource should you
ever need it.

Facebook? Twitter? Instagram? Pinterest?
Yes please share the love. Thanks.
We are what we think of.
What will you be tomorrow? next week? next month?
Or the year to come..
We center on weight loss but the reality is that
the same approach can and should be used for all the
things in life that are important to us.
Please if you have not yet get a copy of the book or
audio book “the compound effect” there are answers there
for weight loss, money growth, peace in life, etc.,
Deny yourself the ability to think “I Can’t” and instead
add to your vocabulary the words “How could I’ and notice
the difference. The immediate difference.
Lets get more and more of what we want.
To continued growth gang.
If you want to learn more about the book
“The Compound Effect” take a look at my
recommended reading page
Jose G. Osuna
Your goal is your own and it is
what you want it to be.
Regardless it comes with a price and
that price can not be paid by anyone else.
The great thing is that no one else can
show and brag about the results.
Our weight loss journey, this road to
better health and more stamina is
not and it has never been an easy one
but both you and me know that it is a
worthwhile effort.
I hate that feeling of “No Energy”
it drives me nuts. I have always hated early
mornings but I always pushed and was
able to function and function at a high level.
When I am not on my diet and doing my
walk I have trouble stretching, walking and
even concentrating. I hate it.
Gang we know what we need to do.
We know the why and most of us are
working on the how that is after all why
we read books and blogs like this one.
Please remember that also by sharing of
our experiences we are part of the solution.
Please share with the rest of us if you
have a killer Ninja Tactic to get up in the
early morning or if you have a killer recipe
and why not if you have any Hacks that can
help the rest of us.
There are no masters here. Only students.
Please share.

a wellness path is a lonely one but, it is a
worthy one. Look around you and see how many
of those close to you are fit, energetic and bringing
their A game.
I have recently moved and in my previous town
and at my last job I ever had I met a lot of people
who literally hated the city and their jobs yet
did nothing to change their circumstances.
I tried for months to have some join me at the gym
and sadly NOT A ONE DID.
I offered to mentor and share of my entrepreneurial
activities and offered to share of my real estate
experiences but again NOT A ONE TOOK A SERIOUS
INTEREST. As I said I have since moved and when I
go back to visit or for my doctors appointments
I still see the unhappy and the unsatisfied not doing
a thing to change their environment.
Gang as we push for more and better I believe it is
a good thing to try and bring some with us but I
do not think it is our job to DRAG anyone to better
health and better circumstances.
Keep your life, health and circumstances
front and center and continue your journey
to more and better.
Stay focus stay successful.

Ok Gang here is another ABS routine
that is not only simple but really effective.
Just like the previous one I found is from
Neila Rey so when you get a chance check
their stuff.
Keep it simple and follow the instructions.
Gang stay focused stay successful.

Love what John Wooden said and it reminded me
what another wise person said:
“Those who matter don’t care and
those who care don’t matter”
Gang until people have walked in your shoes and have
done and accomplished what you have who gives
two flying F@$%’s what they think.
Just keep crushing it and keep winning.
Gang Stay Focused Stay Successful.

Share the love gang. Choose your favorite Social Media Platform.
Gang I just wanted to share one of my most favorite
quotes EVER.
Regardless of what ever has happened in our life
reality is that with the proper attitude we can launch
from there and change our life.
All we have to do is make a decision and stay with it.
Stay focused stay successful.

I found this routine and would like to share it with my group.
I found it challenging but it is easy enough to memorize.
While those of us with WLS have the reminder of the limited
amount of food we can eat, we at times need help remembering
to add the physical activities that are so important.
No diet on its own will give us the results we crave. We must
add the exercise component.
Keep at it and do not forget why it is that you started this.
With my thanks and appreciation.
Keep it up gang. Keep wining at loosing…. The pounds.
Expect even more exercise routines in the near future.
This is the time of the year when we must make a bigger difference.

Please gang share this on your favorite social media forum below.
I like it!!
Sometimes it feels like this is the only ting that would make me
work out. So I think of my former Mother In Law.
She used to say….. Just kidding., she would terrorize a T-Rex
easily every day and twice on Sunday.
I would rather go run than stay home where I would have
been a sitting duck for her to pluck.
Hell. I just ruined my beauty sleep by thinking of the T-Rex.
I do not know what your motivator is but I sure do hope YOU know.
Now use it and go work out.

Time will pass.
What will you have to say about it OR..
What will you have to show for it.
Give it the 8 weeks and let’s find out.
Gang it is all within your grasp and, it is worth it.
Go For It. Stay Focussed Stay Successful.

Happy Monday Gang
How did we do this past weekend?
Did we stick with the diet? Did we drink the water?
Did we take the meds? Did we take our vitamins?
Anyway…. It is Monday and it is time for a fresh start.
Are we ready to change our life?
I find myself in need of a fresh start. I find myself in the
middle of a BLAHHHH SEASON. And I have
Plenty of people to blame it on but the reality is that it is all
on me. Yes it is all on me.
That folks is a very empowering statement. Because by the time
some of you are reading this I will be pushing my self to do
what was my regular 4.5 mile walk. Yes I had abandoned it
because of pain and a bunch of other excuses and I really
can not afford to have excuses. I have too much shit to do
in life and well I just need to get with it.
My gym membership has expired as of yesterday and I am
not renewing it. There is nothing I was doing there that I can
not do on my own. The only benefit I will not have is that
I will not be there for the senior citizen and pregnant woman
programs and I liked those because I felt young and skinny.
Yes I understand that is a bit of an ass-hole statement but hey
I took and used all the help and motivation I could get.
I noticed some guys checking out the younger chicks SORRY
NOT ME. That didn’t do shit for me other than make me
loose count and I had no time for that.
Guys… I know that I sound like a broken record but we really
must know ourselves. We must know our strengths and acknowledge
our weaknesses. (like my spelling)
Don’t go to the gym hungry. Don’t go to the gym with out a drink.
And please use the equipment and move on there are people
waiting that have stuff to do. Clean your mess too please.
Gang. It is Monday. Look at yourself and if you see the need for
change be honest with yourself. Better you than anyone else.
And try honestly to be the best you can be. It is worth it.
Gang Stay Focused Stay Successful.
