I was thinking today on my run that I have been thinner longer than I have been fatter. How come my body image is of a fat man rather than a thin man? I mean if I start thinking that I am too thin – won’t that kick-off a eating binge? It was the weirdest thing [...] When I was younger and my metabolism was seemingly supercharged, I did not ponder differences between appetite and hunger! They were the same in my teens and early twenties. I was an active boy/man and ate until I was full. I also had the habit of wolfing down my food and since I always cleaned my [...] What is the secret to lasting weight loss? What is the meaning of life? How does one unlock the code to the universe? Well now I will address one of these three questions in this post but first I want to update my progress. I did well this week. I ran the mountains a couple of [...] Last month I was inducted into the Kenpo International Hall of Fame in Chicago, IL. For those of you who do not know, karate is and has been my first love most of my life. Here is a link to that story on my other blog. Let me just say it was quite an honor [...] The low-salt diet is going ok as I have been discovering foods that I can eat. The funny thing is foods that were widely available in the 50’s are the kinds of foods that I am eating now. Back in the 50’s there were not a lot of fast-food joints to choose from. One might [...] This might sound funny but many diet and exercise programs out there profess to have fast weight-loss and that speed arguably is the reason for the diet/workout plan’s popularity. But I say to you know if you lose weight too fast – you are probably heading for a train wreak! What I am talking about is [...] I just read a story about Kathy Tandy, A doughnut maker, who lost 170 pounds here. What an inspirational story! This also proves that a person in an environment with abundant high-fat, high-calories, high-glycemic index foods can overcome the weight-gain!
I was struck by her attempts with the current popular diets and finally going to portioning [...] I was very happy the other day when I weighed less than 240! I thought I would celebrate by cooking myself a reward breakfast! My wife was gone somewhere as was my step-daughter so I started rummaging through the fridge. I found some home made chili, eggs, cheese and potatoes. I shredded a large potato [...] Anyone how has dieted for any time at all knows what a diet plateau is and how madding it can be. For the last two weeks I have been weighing in at about a three pound range! Many of you might be worried about this but I have been through this before as my “Free Diet [...] Slice and dice weight-loss surgeries are becoming more common nowadays. I attended a seminar over the holidays and was amazed by the presenting doctor’s statement, “You cannot lose weight dieting.” OK, perhaps most of the people in the room might have agreed with that statement but the audacity of that doctor. I do not mean [...] I just retired my Weight Watchers WW30WB scale today after buying a Taylor 5703s scale at Walmart. Last year I retired my HealthOMeter scale after replacing the previous scale the year before! This year I have high hopes that this scale (the Taylor 5703s) actually breaks my record of one year of fairly consistent readings! |
