• What do you want, and what do you need

  Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

  In the last post I talked about “want” and “need”. Maybe I should have been talking about “desire”, and “need.” Wanting something doesn’t always lead us to do things that might be bad for us. But desire. Now there is the stuff that damage is made of.
  What have you done for [...]

• The difference between want and need

  Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

  Looking at the words “want”, and “need” we know that there are specific differences between them.
  A “want” is a desire. Something that you would like.
  A “need” is an imperative. It is something that is necessary for either your survival, or for your well-being.
  But fat people mix the [...]

• Why I hate being fat

  Saturday, February 23rd, 2008

  Do you want to know why I hate being fat? Let me tell you why I hate being fat.

  I hate being fat because it makes me obsess about food. I think about food all of the time. Am I hungry? How long has it been since I last ate? [...]

• Something new

  Friday, February 22nd, 2008

  Yes, there is something new going on here. A weight bar. Something to track my weight loss. Something that will display my progress, or lack there of.
  Let me know what you think.
  Namaste.

• What can I eat to be thin?

  Friday, February 22nd, 2008

  Let’s review what we have learned up to this point.
  We eat more when we are in social situations. We go to food when we are depressed, or unhappy. Our genetics work against us, along with our environment. If our parents were heavy, we are more likely to be heavy. If our [...]

• How can I lose weight

  Thursday, February 21st, 2008

  How many times have you looked in the mirror and asked that question? How many times have you been out clothes shopping and thought to yourself, “How can I lose 10 lbs?” Or 15, or 20?
  How many times have you thought that life would be better if you just weighed less than you [...]

  I was scrolling through everyone who has clicked in today and I found a link back to a website called HealthRanker. They linked my last post.
  Did you get that?
  I got linked back to a health website.
  You can’t hear the voices in my head yelling and celebrating. My little blog got some major linkage.
  Wow.
  Guess [...]

• What Makes Us Fat?

  Monday, February 18th, 2008

  Last night we talked about our biology, our environment, and our social group. Social group being the people we hang with.
  Reading an article that was published on Abc.go.com last November connects our suspects even more.
  “Consistently, we find that how much people eat is in direct relation to how much they are served, the variety [...]

• What Makes Us Fat?

  Sunday, February 17th, 2008

  Now there is the $60,000 question. And there seem to be just about as many answers.
  The facts, stripped bare, are that we are fat because we eat too many calories in relation to the amount we expend. We take in too many, and use too few.
  Gee, that makes me feel real good. [...]

• Nutrasweet Really sucks

  Thursday, February 14th, 2008

  I think that I have finally figured out what is driving all of my sugar cravings. Nutrasweet. It messes with your head, and your cravings.
  How did I figure this out? I am glad that you asked. I have been drinking more soda in the past few weeks. Mountain Dew. [...]
