*A* A Shove in the Right Direction!
******************************************
Most of us who have weight problems know "all the right answers" to
questions about diet and exercise. We could probably even write a book on How to
Lose Weight! We know what we want to change and we know what we need to do to
make it happen. And deep down, we really want to make the changes. But we just
can't seem to get off the ground! And even though we have discovered the
Oxycise! program and believe it's THE answer we have been looking for -- when it
comes to DOING what we know and believe, well, that's another story!
That's when an OxyPal can make all the difference. Someone to give you a little nudge, push, shove, or maybe even a well-placed "kick in the behind" when you need it! An OxyPal can help you achieve your weight loss or fitness goals by encouraging you and asking about your progress. Just knowing that your OxyPal is going to be "checking up on you" may be just what you need to get you moving and keep you moving.
Your OxyPal may be a supportive and trusted family member.... or a neighbor who is doing Oxycise! with you. Or maybe even a friend who lives hundreds of miles away, whom you know only through emails, and whom you've never met in person, but who sees you only for what's in your heart.
I have just entered into a mutual agreement with an OxyPal in Canada who will be checking up on me ... and I will do the same for her! We have challenged each other to do at least one Oxycise! workout every day in August (with Sundays off for rest and "good behavior!") and we are going to make sure we do it or else! Right, Crystal? (Anybody want to join us?)
Looking for your own OxyPal? Here are some places to find them!
In our website Message Room there is a lot of genuine caring and friendship between those who go there for daily support. Many warm, funny, caring people who cheer for each other's Oxycise! successes and encourage each other through the ups and downs of life. They are like a family -- and there's always room for more! The really great thing is that nobody is judged by appearance (since we can't see each other) and nobody cares how much weight you have to lose. So everyone "sees" each other only with their hearts, and it's a great way to see people for who they really are!

If you prefer more one-on-one communication, you can "page" individuals in the Message Room and join them in the "Chat Room", or email each other privately. Or you may enjoy "shopping" for an Oxycise! PenPal who has a similar background and interests. Click here for our "Wanted:OxyPals" webpages, or go to the link in the "OxyCenter" section of our website: http://www.oxyciseplus.com/oxycenter/oxypalsindex.htm
If you'd like to place your own "ad"
for an OxyPal, click here:

Maintaining a fitness plan and achieving successful weight loss can be challenging. By giving and receiving help from an OxyPal you are both much more likely to succeed.
I think Luciano de Crescenzo said it best:
"We are each of us angels with only one
wing,
and we can only fly by embracing one another."

*B* Take Things EASY With Our "Easy Does It" Workouts!
*************************************************************************
As advertised in PARADE Magazine, our newest video workouts are perfect for
those who are recuperating from illness, injury or surgery. They're also great
for seniors, new Oxycise! customers -- and everyone else!
In the "Easy Does It" Level One introduction Jill gives a thorough step-by-step explanation of the Oxycise! Basic Breath. So "Easy Does It" Level One is great for those who are brand new to Oxycise! -- No other videos, books, or experience required!
All three workouts move at a little slower pace than our regular workouts. And they have built-in "intermissions" so you can stop the workout and continue later. There are also no floor positions, so this may be an advantage to those who have injuries, or who simply prefer not to get down on the floor.
If you've never done Oxycise! before, be sure to start with Level One, to take advantage of Jill's great instructions on doing the Oxycise! breathing. And even if you've been doing Oxycise! for a while, but aren't quite sure you're breathing correctly, Jill's step-by-step teaching will insure that you are breathing with power.

*** CONNY ****
"I will have been on Oxycise! 4 months on June 7th. Two days ago, I just happened to really look at my face in the mirror. I could see a straight face. I couldn't believe my eyes. For years and years, I have had a crooked face and a crooked smile, therefore I rarely let people take my photo. Doc (husband) did some cranial work on me, which helped but not entirely. Now after doing Oxycise! every day, it has changed the shape of my face. I truly am in awe. I have always been sooo self conscious of my mis-shapen face, now, I look normal and I feel wonderful!!!!
"Also I want to say, that my body is pulling
back into the shape I was when I was in my 30's-40's. It takes awhile, but let
me tell you, it is worth every breath. Because it makes me feel good and I eat
less, and sleep so good at night. It also helps me curtail the pain in my back.
If I miss a session, my back lets me know it wants OXYGEN!! So I am hooked for
life on Oxycise! Thank you! Jill for sharing and God Bless you."

*D* Recipe for Success!
*******************************
Start out with a great exercise program, like Oxycise! then add the following
ingredients:
"Getting nutrition and fitness advice via e-mail, pairing up with on-line friends and keeping a virtual diary triples the speed of weight loss, according to a recent Brown University School of Medicine study.
"In the study, those who got feedback on their diet and exercise programs from web buddies and experts via the Internet lost an average of nine pounds over three weeks. Those in the group who were given on-line information, but not one-on-one coaching, shed just three pounds over the same time period. Researchers say the secret behind the success of interactive fitness sites lies in the structure and personalized support they offer."
(From "First for Women" magazine,
January 29, 2001, page 38, see "TripleYour Weight Loss" under
"First In Fitness." )
