• Food

  Monday, July 27th, 2009

  Food.  We all eat it.  Some of us eat too much of it.  And a lot of us bitch and moan about it.

   
  I know that this blog is supposed to be about more motion, and eating less food.  I should know, because I am the one who started this.  But over the next couple of [...]

• Losing weight with more motion,and less food.

  Monday, March 23rd, 2009

  We all know the number 1 weight loss secret, now don’t we?  It is move more, and eat less.
  More motion, and less food.
  And we know that that is a lot easier said than done.  With that in mind I was reading about acai berries.  These little guys can help your digestion while you are reducing [...]

• More Motion is back

  Wednesday, January 14th, 2009

  So where the heck have I been?
  Getting fat is the easy answer.  The holidays and all of that.  Chocolate, lots of things with cheese and sour cream in them.  And that is where I have been.  Traveling up to 320 lbs.
  Yeah.  320.  But that was 3 days ago.  Right now I am sitting at 315lbs.
  Though [...]

• Is aspartame safe?

  Monday, September 15th, 2008

  There is a huge controversy concerning the chemical aspartame, also known as Nutrasweet, and Equal.
  Aspartame is a chemical that was discovered in 1965 by Monsanto while testing an anti-ulcer drug.  Its use in carbonated drinks was finally approved in 1983, following a decade-long battle against the objections of Dr. John Olney (a neuroscience researcher), James [...]

  When you are not updating a weightloss blog on a regular basis folks tend to feel that you have either lost interest, or you have fallen off of the wagon.
  No that way it is, here folks.
  So where the hell have I been? Arizona! I went and spent a few days with my Eldest [...]

• 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 [...]

• 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 [...]

• 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. [...]
