In these times of quarantine and social and physical distancing and all that’s going on, I’m not going to lie, it’s been tough for myself and I’m sure for anyone who can’t be with the people they love most when a loved one passes. In our case, this is what happened when Crazy Larry also known as Dad, died last month on March 25. There’s been no funeral, no way to get together, other than on Zoom, no way to sit in a crowd and share funny stories and sing and listen to his favorite songs, no way to gather together at all and, frankly, it sucks.
If you’ve heard any of these stories before now, you know that Crazy Larry earned his name for a reason…we also called him Yosemite Sam and as much as we loved him and put up with him… he was a complicated person and a loose cannon… you just never knew who you were going to get with him, which kept us all on our toes. Since today would have been Crazy Larry’s 80th birthday and in honor of him, we’ve pulled together this collection of stories for your listening enjoyment. - Join us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/groups/howinthehelldidIgethere/ - Follow us on Instagram @kimaflodin or @howinthehellpodcast - Share your love for the show with financial support! https://buymeacoffee/thecoloringbookcoach - Subscribe to my other podcast: How to Fall in Love with Yourself TOOLKIT - Thank you YouTube Free Music Audio Library & Silent Partner for our theme song, 7th Floor Tango and ad music, Blue Skies https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCht8qITGkBvXKsR1Byln-wA 
Do you struggle with your weight loss goals? Do you find yourself yo-yo-ing up and down the scale? Could you use some inspiration, motivation, and real-life stories about people who have successfully lost weight and kept it off? If so, then today’s podcast is for you! How in the HELL did I get here is proud to present Slimming Stories around the world, a podcast produced and hosted by my friend and fellow podcaster, Claire Oldum-West. Claire is an accessible and honest host who loves discussing the journey of weight loss and committing to a fitness regime. Claire, herself was stuck in a rut and struggled with a cycle of losing and gaining weight. In 2018, she created Slimming Stories around the world because she knew she wasn’t alone in her weight loss challenges and she felt called to join with others who had similar struggles. As you’ll hear in this podcast, transformation stories and conversations about weight loss are two of Claire’s favorite thing. She believes a great transformation story proves that long-term weight gain can be lost, and when you hear others discuss their challenges, it reassures everyone that they are not alone. I’m not going to lie, this is a very motivational and inspiring podcast! Be sure to subscribe to Slimming stories around the world wherever you listen to your podcasts, and if you enjoy it, please leave her a review on Apple iTunes. And, don’t forget to follow Claire on Instagram and join her Facebook group. Enjoy this special episode of Slimming stories around the world featuring Claire and her guest who lost almost 200 pounds! It’s quite a story! Notes about this episode: Has your doctor ever encouraged you to improve your health by losing a few pounds? If so you will be able to relate to Aoife Larking my guest on this week’s podcast. It’s fair to say that Aoife’s doctor cut straight to the point when announcing that if Aoife didn’t do anything about her eating habits that her friends and family would be carrying her out in a box! Harsh, shocking words that hit home to Aoife that shook Aoife into taking action and finding sanctuary with Slimming World. Aoife was 25 stone 9lb when she stepped on the scales at her 1st weigh-in and has had an astonishing weight loss of 14 stone 10lb. Aoife's weight loss and her mobility around the stairs in her home resulted in a fall midway through her weight loss journey but this didn’t stop Aoife. After falling on her staircase suffering a break to her pelvis, tailbone and fractured femur Aoife didn’t give in and the weight loss continued. A walking challenge came Aoife’s way and with improved fitness, she agreed after all Aoife explained: “it was just a walk”. Aoife had, in fact, agreed to climb the highest mountain in Ireland “Carrauntoohill”, and with no training, after all, it was just a walk Aoife well and truly conquered the mountain! From feeling breathless after walking 3 steps of her staircase to thousands of steps Aoife has come such a long way in more ways than one. Another wonderful lady sharing her story to inspire you into taking action….what are you waiting for!

What you’re about to hear is a recording between me, and my sisters Kari, Jenny, and Skye. We were missing Erin in more ways than one. We had gathered together on Zoom just a few days after Crazy Larry had passed away to help Kari virtually celebrate her birthday with a Virtual Happy Hour (just like we did in those two fun shows we did last September) and yes, there was smoking and drinking going on! And, since this was the first time we had been together since Crazy Larry also known as dad’s passing a few days earlier, I really didn’t set myself up to properly record, which is unfortunate because some funny stories did show up at the end of our almost 3 hour Zoom call… and you’re going to hear them here today… so even though my mic doesn’t sound great, I think you’ll get the idea of what kind of shenanigans happen when the sisters get together on Zoom or in real life! - Find your FREE 14-Day Writing Challenge and support our Sponsor when you visit the Happy Self Publisher https://happyselfpublisher.com - Join us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/groups/howinthehelldidIgethere/ - Follow us on Instagram @kimaflodin or @howinthehellpodcast - Share your love for the show with financial support! https://buymeacoffee/thecoloringbookcoach - Subscribe to my other podcasts: How to Fall in Love with Yourself TOOLKIT & Tell Me Your Secret - Thank you YouTube Free Music Audio Library & Silent Partner for our theme song, 7th Floor Tango and ad music, Blue Skies https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCht8qITGkBvXKsR1Byln-wA

Life may be throwing us some crazy curve balls right now, but that hasn’t stopped us from finding the humor in life… This week, we’re bringing you three stories today which highlight strokes of genius and how that pans out for all of us. My stroke of genius comes in the form of getting rid of an enemy and I was in grade school at the time! Next one of Jenny’s son shows his genius when she and her husband Bill find something very interesting happening in his bedroom closet and lastly, Kari is smart, but her hose is smarter. - Find your FREE 14-Day Writing Challenge and support our Sponsor when you visit the Happy Self Publisher https://happyselfpublisher.com - Join us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/groups/howinthehelldidIgethere/ - Follow us on Instagram @kimaflodin or @howinthehellpodcast - Share your love for the show with financial support! https://buymeacoffee/thecoloringbookcoach - Subscribe to my other podcasts: How to Fall in Love with Yourself TOOLKIT & Tell Me Your Secret - Thank you YouTube Free Music Audio Library & Silent Partner for our theme song, 7th Floor Tango and ad music, Blue Skies https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCht8qITGkBvXKsR1Byln-wA We’re all missing out on things right now and I know that one of the things people are missing is being able to watch sports on TV and so with today’s show, we’re bringing a sporting event to you… the 1992 Superbowl that is, but you’re not going to hear about the game… no, Kari is going to share just one story about what goes on behind the scenes when she in charge of one of the private suites during the 1992 Superbowl. - Find your FREE 14-Day Writing Challenge and support our Sponsor when you visit the Happy Self Publisher https://happyselfpublisher.com - Join us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/groups/howinthehelldidIgethere/ - Follow us on Instagram @kimaflodin or @howinthehellpodcast - Share your love for the show with financial support! https://buymeacoffee/thecoloringbookcoach - Subscribe to my other podcasts: How to Fall in Love with Yourself TOOLKIT & Tell Me Your Secret - Thank you YouTube Free Music Audio Library & Silent Partner for our theme song, 7th Floor Tango and ad music, Blue Skies https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCht8qITGkBvXKsR1Byln-wA
