What’s keeping you from looking your best right now? If you are a woman, you will probably say.“My weight,” or a particular body part thats too big, like your stomach.

So You Think You Have to Lose Weight Before Hiring An Image Consultant

Many of the women who contact me say they have to lose weight before they can use my services. They assume that when they hire an image consultant, they will have to throw out their entire closet and buy a whole new wardrobe because they have seen this happen on television shows like “What Not to Wear.”

When I work with a client my goal is to help a woman make the most of her existing wardrobe. That means teaching her what colors and styles are most flattering and teaching her how to shop her closet using a chart of her best colors and line drawings of flattering clothing for her face and body.

This is information that can be used for a lifetime no matter what the fashion trends are

Stop putting your life on hold while you are trying to lose weight. You can look beautiful while you work on your weight.

New Year, New Goals:give 2010 a name

January 22, 2010 by Nancy Goldblatt Leave a Comment

If you could put your new year resolutions into words what would you call 2010?

I have named this year “My year for a better Body, and a better Blog .” I got the idea after listening to a free webinar by Brenda Kinsel , Image Consultant. She has an excellent free e-newsletter and she has written a number of books. 40 over 40 was her first book. www.brendakinsel.com/

It’s been about four weeks since I started my new exercise program. Unfortunately I injured my back last week and missed several sessions but I returned this last Friday and plan to continue. The research study I am in involves nutrition and exercise. Its called “The Shape Up,” study. I am writing down everything I eat and counting calories. It helps to write down what I eat, but its a chore. I am exercising 3 days a week, with 45 minutes of cardio and about 15 minutes of weight training. I believe Johns Hopkins Hospital Bayview, Baltimore, Md., is is still looking for participants for this 6 month study. You have to be pre-diabetic or diabetic and no older than 65 and in fairly good health. I got into the study because I am considered pre-diabetic. If you are in Baltimore or surrounding areas you can call Meredith at 410-550-6997 to find out if you are eligible for the 6 month study.

The Hopkins Nutritionist, Sarah told me in order to lose weight I can only eat 1,000 calories on non-exercise days and 1,300 on the days I exercise. When I heard this I asked myself, “How will I be able to do this beyond this 6 month study”? I felt discouraged at the thought. Then it occured to me that once I have built more muscle that perhaps I will be able to eat a few more calories, because muscle burns more calories than fat.

I gained about 3 pounds the 2nd week of the program. According to my scale I have now lost 4 pounds based on my starting weight which I am currently not willing to reveal.

Please feel free to comment and share. What will you call 2010?

Nancy2-Original 4 — Nancy Goldblatt, "The Wardrobe Wizard of Baltimore,"

Welcome to Dressing for Comfort, Confidence & Style, a brand new blog from Nancy Goldblatt, “The Wardrobe Wizard of Baltimore.”

Nancy is a professionally trained personal image consult. She was trained by Color 1 Associates in 1991. Her passion to help other women learn to love themselves and be less self critical came out of our own struggles to feel good in her short, plump body. One day in 1990 she discover a book by Mary Duffy called, “How to Make The Body You Have Look Like The Body You Want.”

After reading the book she realized that this is not possible but you can still look good no matter what shape or size you are. The way to do this is to understand your shape and choose clothing that flatters your shape. Looking good is not about wearing the latest trends or being skinny and tall. Its about understanding your face and body shape, knowing your most flattering shades of color (most people can wear 40 -90 shades) and understanding how to combine colors so you can look your best and feel confident wearever you go.
