Skinny Jeans Can Suck It: Lessons from a Former Fat Girl.Amber England
I was asked to give a presentation on healthy living and my personal weight loss journey to a group of college kids back in April. My message that day was pretty simple. Have a goal, work hard, know you are worth it, and never let weight loss or weight be about numbers on a scale.
Fat Talk, How Sweat became the catalyst to find my passion...Amber England
This talk, in MAC Keynote, was specifically designed for a unique event where presenters had five minutes and 20 slides (progressing every 20 seconds on auto-forward) to tell their story. Presenter notes are included, but were not seen by the audience.
Everyone tells you that you must have a clear vision of where you want to go and who you want to be. Not everyone tells you exactly how – and how not – to get to that vision.

This is my personal philosophy presentation in relation to counselling and counselling studies for the NCFE Level 4 Diploma in Counselling. It maps my personal journey studying the integrative approach to counselling with doodles, metaphors and my own personal waffling.
How, as a 34 year old “burnt out” professional performer, I discovered the 3 key elements of a great opportunity, with no hype, only the hard hitting truth, that allowed me to generate up to 4 figures in a single day when I applied this…

“Every day, think as you wake up, ‘Today I am fortunate to have woken up, I am alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.” ~ Dalai Lama
Dear Reader,
I humbly present to you a collection of my insights into experiences that are by and large common to most of us. I have tried to put them down in a manner that it reaches out & the reader can connect with it.
It is not something that already doesn’t exist around us. It’s just that, we often don’t even realize what already exists around us. It is very similar to an incident which I remember vividly. I had taken my two year old daughter on a flight. We boarded the aircraft through an aerobridge. Once on board she kept on wanting to get onto an “airplane” similar to the one she was able to see through the window. I could not convince her that she was on one already.
Essentially this collection is about a journey that all of us are already undertaking. It’s just that, we are so engrossed in making the journey that, we don’t care to look outside the window to see what we are missing. It’s a snapshot of all the little things that are around us which we take so much for granted that, we have become oblivious of their very existence.
I fondly call it “SAU GRAM (100 gm) ZINDAGI”.
Brian Johnson spent a year in Bali distilling the best of 100 great books on life, the universe and everything. He shares the wisdom in them via his fab mp3 commentaries and his easy to digest pdf notes.

June 13, 2011. It was time to celebrate my wedding anniversary. That day, however, was different. I had quit my job. We found ourselves financially insecure.
Do you remember the Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland? Alice would ask the cat for directions, but she wouldn’t know where she wanted to go. The disappearing cat would tell her that if she didn’t know where she wanted to go, then it didn’t matter where the roads led to.
Where did I want to go? How would any map help? Why did I join a journey only to quit later? Which journey would keep me satisfied for life? What destination would have me contended?

Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Fat Talk: How Sweat became my catalyst to find my passion...
1. How SWEAT became the
catalyst for me to find my
passion and live my truth
Fat Talk: How sweat became the catalyst to find my passion and live my truth.
2. Hiding behind the fat...
Do you recognize the person in these pictures? Her name is Amber. She seems happy in these pictures doesnʼt she? Look, she is
even smiling.... all surface. Deep down, behind the smiles, behind the laughter was the woman standing here today hidden under 100
pounds of excess fat desperate be unleashed and un-armored to find her passion and live her truth. So how does this girl.....
3. How?
From this.... To this...
....Become this woman.... and what does sweat have to do with any of this?
4. “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a
single step.”
-Lao Tzu
First. I was miserable and I knew I needed to change. So I set out on a journey to find myself..and I did so one step at a time....
5. On my
journey,
this was
my map...
My road map was a list of my goals and with these goals as my roap map I slowly put one foot in front of the other and began taking small steps
to change. ...but it was easy. And there were times when I felt like a total failure.
6. “You’ve got this, no
problem…it’s only one mile.”
I distinctly remember setting out in the summer of 2007 to run one mile, thinking “you’ve got this, no problem...its one little mile.” and then I
distinctly remember the feeling of defeat when I sat on the side of the road with the Oklahoma heat beating down on me--unable to distinguish
the tears rolling down my face from the sweat that also pouring off my body when I realized I was so fat and out of shape that I couldn’t even
run 400 yards
7. Next...
Oddly enough, it was the sweat that poured off my body that day that became the fuel that would propel me to the next part of my journey.
Over the next few months I lived in the gym.
8. I worked out with intention, joined JillianMichaels.com, an online weight loss community, finished two 5K’s while still weighing more than 200
pounds, met a trainer in Oklahoma City named Landon who took my fitness level to new heights and supported me in my journey and continued
losing weight one pound at a time.
9. I even won an essay contest and was flown to LA to train with America’s leading wellness expert and prime time television star, Jillian Michaels.
10. It was during this workout with Jillian Michaels where I had a major epiphany....not about fitness, but about life. As she beat me in only the way
Jillian can hand a beating to someone and they actually enjoy it (I know.....sadist sounding huh?) and the more the sweat poured off my body, the
stronger and more empowered I felt inside.
11. “This is where CHANGE happens”
Then, just as the workout was nearing its end, when my legs surely must have looked like jello because they certainly felt that way is when she
said something to me that I will never forget. she said this to me. “Amber, finish this. you are tired and exhausted and I need you to dig deep
and find it. Run. Through. This. Pain. What is two minutes of pain over a lifetime...it’s nothing. This is where change happens. When you are at
your weakest and you feel like giving up, dig deep and push through the pain and finish strong.”
12. AH-HA!
At that moment I finally got it. I finally figured out the connection....the transformative moment where I finally understood that fitness for me,
was more than burning calories and more than simply getting skinny. Sweat was literally transforming my mind and preparing me for much
greater moments in the weeks, months and years to come.
13. Three years later, I am still sweating...both literally and figuratively. I still feel pain every day and I still push through it. i recently made the
difficult decision to quit my job as a political operative and communications director for the Oklahoma State Senate to hopefully make other
people sweat and perhaps help them find that thing that for them is their catalyst to find their passion and live their truth. And as I wrangled
with that decision and questioned if it was the right thing to do, in the back of my mind flashed the the pictures from my journey that brought
me to this moment and chiefly the lesson I learned on that treadmill in Hollywood with that crazy TV trainer sitting next to me as Sweat poured
off my body. Painful.... yes. Worth it....Absolutely.
14. I wanted to
be...
...more than just a
“skinny girl” success
story.
So what started out as one single step to get skinny and maybe find myself turned out to be so much more and that cataylst in my journey was
all about SWEAT.
15. Sweat [swet]
verb
• to manipulate or
produce by hard work
or drudgery.
The textbook definition of Sweat is to manipulate or produce by hard work or drudgery.
16. Before After
The textbook definition of Sweat is to manipulate or produce by hard work or drudgery.
17. “If one advances confidently in the
direction of his dreams, and
endeavors to live the life which he
has imagined, he will meet with a
success unexpected in common
hours.”
-Henry David Thoreau
This is one of my all time faves: “If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined,
he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.”
18. What is going to be your
catalyst to find your passion
and live your truth????
Will it be SWEAT?
ask audience to think about what their own
catalyst will be....
