Make Money

And get to hurt big pollution corporations? I like the sound of this - donate your profits to other organisations who are doing activist work. If I had any spare cash, I would be signing up to this like a rocket. [Karma Banque :: what goes around, comes around]

The Drug's Don't Work...

This story came up today and it angered me slightly [BBC NEWS | Health | Obesity drugs 'no quick fix'] The problem is obvious, people once they have lost the weight will think they can go back to their old ways and eat the same.

Save millions - prescribe them a dose of Gillian Rilley's Book - Eating Less. It's the one which has done it for me - It gets totally into the psychology of eating and it has helped me to completely change my eating habits. I used to eat and eat - all of it crap. Now I strive to eat most of my food in its closest to the natural state. What's more - I don't get pissed off with not eating processed, sugar full, supermarket crap. I am able to eat what I want - I just choose that which is healthiest. I honestly cannot pick up sweets or anything full of crap without putting it back - I always feel better when I do.

Best still, it ain't a diet. It's a lifestyle change. I've lost the best part of 2 stone in 6 months. If this was a diet I would put it all back on at the end. For me it is actually a side effect of eating healthier - I'm not fixating on it either. I will probably loose more, but I still have some problems I need to address in my eating habits...

Another thing I've noticed is my health. Since I chosse to eat better quality natural food - I have not been ill. I normally get loads of colds - haven't had one for ages! And it all tastes so much better too. I can't get enough fresh, clean goodness. Don't get me wrong, I still eat stuff like chips and that, but in different quanitities and ways. It totally works. I feel better than I have in years. Coupled with Allen Carr's Easyway to Give Up Smoking - this book has completely changed my life (and hopefully helped me to be a fit dad and healthy - touch wood.)

People don't realise that supermarkets are as bad as tobacco companies. They feed you acceptable poision for their own profit. The fatter they can get you the more you have to buy. Simple really. I woke up when I had a salad in one which was so full of sugar and crap, it was disgraceful - yet it was masquerading as healthy eating... Fight back!
