For 364 days of the year I can speak and think rationally about breast cancer, and for many of those days I'm actively fundraising or trying to raise awareness about the disease.
But on day 365, I'm in a panic. For on day 365, I get my annual mammogram and, in between the procedure and waiting for the nurse to come back with the result, I get really, really scared.
In the 20 minutes or so that it takes for the doctor to study the images, my imagination takes me to dark and frightening places and I generally wind myself up into a frenzy. Everything bad flashes through my mind and invariably I end up seeing my little orphaned son crying at my funeral, his mother having lost her fight against breast cancer…
So far, thank God, this hasn't happened; I have stumbled out of the hospital five times, sobbing with relief, knowing I have a clear mammogram and another year to fight the good fight against the disease. I'm not a victim myself. Yet.

Here are some simple strategies for shedding five pounds of fat before the end of the year.
- Ditch Your Diet Drinks
Studies are coming out that link diet drinks to weight gain. Researchers from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio concluded that those who drank two or more diet soft drinks a day had the largest waistline increases—about five times more than that of non-drinkers. They stated, "Data from this and other prospective studies suggest that the promotion of diet soft drinks as healthy alternatives may be ill-advised: they may be free of calories, but not of consequences."
Bottom line: Artificial sweeteners are addictive, lead to waistline increases, and cause you to crave sugary foods. By cutting diet drinks out of
your daily routine, and replacing it with water, you will lose inches and pounds —effortlessly.
- Swap Sandwich Bread for Lettuce
Move over bread, lettuce is better. It's time to re-define your sandwich. While bread has tradition on its side, lettuce wraps offer you weight loss and increased energy. Try the Tasty Tuna Lettuce Wraps recipe below.
Bottom line: Eating bread and other starchy foods always leads to extra pounds, so change your ways. Swap your sandwich bread for lettuce for 30
days and see how much you will effortlessly lose.
- Trade Slow Cardio for Intense Intervals
Doing slow cardio will not give you results. In order to really make your workout effective, you need to turn up the intensity. If you love the treadmill, then do a series of sprints throughout your workout. If you're a swimmer, then push yourself extra hard every other lap.
Bottom line: Doing slow, easy cardio will not give you the streamline body you want. Only intense intervals will do that for you. Pepper your workout
with bouts of intense cardio and watch as the fat starts to disappear.
- Avoid Sugar 99% Of The Time
Sugar will cause you to gain weight every single time. There's really no way around that simple truth. Sugar is standing between you and your perfect body. If you're serious about looking and feeling great, then understand that sugar has no place in your diet.
Bottom line: If you avoid sugar 99% of the time, then you will be on your way to a lean and energetic body. If it's your birthday or a special holiday,
then partake in a small amount of sugar, but make that the exception and not the rule.

- What is your favorite game?
My favorite game is the Mega Fortune – love all the luxury and bling-bling!
- What is your biggest win?

- When did you laugh last time and why?
I laugh a lot! The last time was today when I was having lunch in the kitchen with my colleagues and talking about me killing spiders…
- The craziest/the most exciting thing you have ever done?
When I was swimming with the sharks (in my sleep).
- Why do you like working at maria.com?
I have a very creative and fun team and great customers! Every day is different.
