ADs for smoking!






Will you continue to be manipulated? What will you do this year? Fight for health and stop the manipulation. I don't know about you but I'm on my way to the gym to do my first workout at 24 hour fitness which I paid for online. Enjoy your New Year and Be Safe!

A DAY TO REMEBER! Lesly R. Brown...my inspiration





One of the events which had such a profound effect in my life was when my sister died of Diabetes complications. She was so sick and ill every day. My sister was going to Dialysis 5 days a week. She needed to go onto the kidney tranplant list but had to lose 100lbs first in order to get her name on that list. She did everything to try and lose weight including and up to drug use. That is how frustrated my sister was about Diabetes and losing weight. As a last resort, she tried to use cocaine to lose weight. God Rest Her Soul. She was such a beautiful person and she lost her life because she didn't understand the ramifications of eating good ole sould food!
I remeber as a child we were praised when we ate a lot. My granmother was so thrilled to see us eat all our food. My dad used to say, " now that is a real Williams" when you would go back for seconds or even thirds. They encouraged us to eat uncontrollably and we never ever took vitamins. The first time I ever saw a person take a vitamin was when I was 18 and lived with my ex at the time. He took those vitamins religously. His mother was a nurse and she made sure they took their vitamins on a daily basis. Ultimately, as I watched my sister's life wither away from her I knew I was looking into a Mirror. I had a choice either die or fight to live. I did everything from joining a fitness class in school and lifting weights but no matter how hard I tried I could not lose the weight. Not until I finished my Associate Degree and went on to the University. I started taking those nutritional courses and they were awesome. I began to read just how much we have been manipulated into obesity and if you notice the newest trend now is weight loss. A lot of $$$$ to be made on weight loss. This is the newest wave of business in the USA.
This method has awalys been used in business, give them a product they love, get them addicted-knowing they will be sick and dying, then make money when we take this addiction away. This method was used when they allowed prohibition(Alcohol) to become legal. This method was used when they advertised smoking as the coolest thing ever in the early 1900's and later. Within the last 15 years the medical profession has made so much $$$ on stop smoking programs and then comes all of the no-nonsense advertisers to get your money and offer no results. The will of man was broken from each one of these addictive behaviors. Food was next on the list. I remeber as a child we never had snacks and they were not mandatory. They first introduced snacks, then came the value meals, next on the campaign was the "Super size" you actuallly paid less for more food. What a bargain it was and we all ran out for these wonderful deals. Everything got bigger our taste in homes, our taste in cars, and of course or wallets were even fatter as jobs became plentiful so we could afford everything our hearts desired.
Think my brothers and sisters, I urge you to control your desire to eat big luscous meals tomorro. I urge you to think about your health. They keep telling everyone about accountablitity and what that means in health-care is one's ability to take care of themself. You will need to take care of yourself by eating less and getting fit. Take the time to walk to the store. Stop riding in scooters at the store because they are accessible. Drink water instead of soda and limit your meat control. I will discuss all of these things at later dates.


I love you Leslie and I will remeber you always!

Food For Weight Loss!

To effectively lose weight you must always remember exercise makes up 25% of equation while food makes up another 75%. Now, I know you are wondering then why does everyone tell you that you must exercise? Well, you have to understand exercise helps you internally with your internal organs, muscle, and strength. Food on the other hand, makes up the biggest portion because of the ole saying, "You are what you eat, from your head down to your feet." This is one of the most profound sayings ever because it is true.
In order to lose weight as a female you should go to a high fiber diet. Why fiber? Well, if you ever take the time to make a fiber drink with water only you see will see the drink swell. This is what happens in your stomach as well. Therefore, when you consume fiber you feel full. Fiber also adds digestion, helps prevent constipation. I can sit here and write all your fiber foods but the easiest and cheapest way to go on a high fiber diet is to purchase Metamucil smooth texture powder which comes in 1.5lbs or smaller boxes. The easiest way for me to drink this powdery substance was to make it as a daiquiri drink mixture. I would put a little juice, water, ice, and two tablespoons of Metamucil in my blender and make my drink. I would have one for breakfast, lunch, and as a snack later in the day. Before I knew it, I was eating smaller portions and with exercise up to 10,000 steps a day I was losing anywhere from 2-3lbs a week. I was so motivated I would reach anywhere from 12,000 to 15,000 steps because I was feeling so much better. When you exceed 10,000 steps and go to a high fiber diet you can't lose in the weight loss battle. Tomorrow we will discuss metabolism boosting foods.

Astronomy News

Before I could research astronomy news yahoo had already posted we were having a Blue Moon for the New Year which occurs once every 19 years. Always remeber whatever happens on Earth there will always be unsual activity in the stars. Our dimensions and universes are connected. Everything revolves around one another. We are all made of energy which reaches into the galaxies. One of the most exciting courses I took in college was Astronomy. We have come so far in technology and scientist today are so close to reaching other dimensions through the study of the newest in cosmo science which is String Theory a science studying the 11th dimension. You would be so amazed where our technology is headed today but that is another story...

Today's most interesting news-Sea Lions Have Dissappeared.

Yahoo news reported today, Sea Lions have mysteriously disappeared from Pier 39 a San Francisco, California Pier. They report there was a mass gathering of the Sea Lions previously. I'm dying to hear what you think may have happened to the Sea Lions. Personally, I think they may have gone for food. However, when the Tsunami in Indonesia occurred animals were running for their lives and no one paid attention. We will just have to wait and see. Now, I will have to check astronomy news to see if there is anything interesting going on in their news.

The Math Behind Weight-loss!

One of the things I remeber about losing weight is the fact that you must exceed 10,000 steps a day. I suppose you would ask why? Well, in order to lose weight you must committ to doing exercise that will burn at least 500 calories a day. You must understand the math behind weight loss. Remeber the ole saying, "Everything revolves around math." That is a very true statement.
Here is the math to weight loss a formula you should always remeber when trying to lose weight. When I followed these matematical approaches weight loss began to happen. Previously, I couldn't understand why I could not lose weight. It's simple, if you have the time to do some of these tedious things. However, if you downloaded Lose It! then you are very close to a new beginning. Weight loss takes dedication and motivation in order to lose weight. So, I've listed the formula below.

1. 1 lb of Fat equals 3500 calories
2. Every 2,000 steps equals 1 mile.
3. Every 2000 steps equals 100 calories!
4. If you reach 10,000 steps a day you have burned 500 calories.
5. If you can burn 500 calories a day then in 7 days you will have burned 1
pound of flesh off your body.

Tomorrow , I will discuss how you can apply this formula to your food intake..

Relaxation

I found a wonderful website through American Airlines I would have to say it's a grand idea for relaxation. They even provide relaxation tips. Everyone, is getting involved in helping people find other ways to cope rather than the destructive behaviors we display today. Many of us and myself included do so many other things for pleasure which are not conducive for our bodies such as smoking, over-eating, drugs, tv-watching, internet surfing, etc. We mistreat our bodies every day for our own self pleasure and indulgence. Many companies have teamed together to help combat the obesity rates in America. There is a mass campaign to thin our waistlines. People are somehow missing the hidden messages. A few years ago Mcdonald's was giving out yourself fitness DVD's with salad purchases. That reminds me, I will be writing them to see if they can bring that campaign back. It was very nice and I still have my DVD's. I have the strength and core workout. I never got the chance to obtain the cardio and yoga. I sure would love too. I've waited and waited and they have never brought this campaign back.


You will love this website by American Airlines!

total steps

At 7:00am I was up to 1000 steps, by lunch time at 10:30am I was up to 3500 steps, by the time I got off work at 2:45pm I was at 5200 steps. after walking to the store and sitting here on this computer most of the evening. I'm at a total of 6334 steps. Looks like I will be very busy before I go to bed because I've got to log a total of 10,000 steps in order to lose 1lb. Anything less than 10,000 only helps me maintain my weight that is why I haven't lost weight. I've been averaging a total of 6500 to 8,000 steps a day which is why I haven't gained any weight but I haven't lost weight either. It's time to kick it up a few notches to reach and exceed 10,000 steps a day for total weight loss success.

Exercise today!

Well my today was busy today after eating and drinking all weekend. I started my day at 6:30am cleaning, 7:00am firm fitness, 7:30 gazelle for 20 mins, and 9:30 firm fitness with the kettleball. I also did two 3 minute sessions of Kegel exercises to stregthen my pelvic floor muscles.I also walked to and from the store today despite the cold that is just how motivated I am to exercise and get these last 30lbs off. I believe I will end my day with some yoga to relax firm fitness kettleball again before bed.

I believe I was dehyrdrated from drinking because I've been drinking water like crazy for the past two days. It has tasted so good I've consumed close to a gallon of water in the last 24 hours so I would have to assume I was dehydrated from drinking. I can say I feel great since I've been drinking water and I can tell you it never tasted so good. LOL!
