I have a lot of conspiracy theories. Those of you who know me also know this to be true. For those of you who don't know me, well now you can say you know one more thing.
I think a lot of things are conspiracies which are either formulated by the government, space aliens or our own minds. I have said for years that television is operated by aliens who want to reduce our grey matter to a pulp that they can eat. Now years later we have Hulu.com. The commercials for Hulu.com have what you think are actors portraying aliens who describe exactly what I have said and thought for years, that they are going to eat our brains!
The area of weight loss is not spared a plethora or my theories, either. I worry that now that my brain is under attack by the constant bombardment of TV, Internet and Radio that I will not be believed when I spout my theories.
Well, I am not going to spout any of them today, "they" might be watching, but keep your eyes open and your ears tuned in and maybe a couple of my theories will slip through.
Actually, conspiracy theories aside, there are some things going on in the food industry which are just downright wrong. They aren't theories, they are facts and a lot of the food we eat on a daily basis is the very stuff that is full of junk that is making and keeping us fat.
If you get a chance to read the book, Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You to Know About, I really recommend it. I am borrowing it from someone right now, but am planning to purchase it from the naturalcures.com website. It has a lot of advice that is just plain practical, not to mention stuff that will steer you in the right direction on the food path.
Be good to yourself and to one another and take a walk...Make time for this important part of losing weight and just being healthy in general. I got some new headphones so I can listen to some tunes while I walk. If you join me, though, I promise to turn the music down and we can chat!

Karin,
ReplyDeleteI am a member of the "Be A Loser with Karin". participant. Love the t-shirt by the way. This is the first time I have checked out your blog! I see you mention Kevin Trudeau's book "natural Cure: What they don't want to tell you." If you google Kevin Trudeau you will find a rap sheet of him misleading the public. He has even gone to jail for it! The book probably does have practical advice. that is just it, practical.
I too believe there are some major concerns with the food today. Like why is there High frutose corn syrup in everything? Where is my beef coming from?
We as consumers need to be aware and knowledgable about our food. We need to get back to know where and how our food is being raised, grown, and processed. Buy local and organic if you can.
There are MANY books out there about weight loss. I happend to own MANY of them! I guess it doesn't matter how many books you own on weight loss!!! :) Just as we need to be proactive on knowing our food, we should make sure those who are "selling" their "practical" advice are speaking the truth.
I have a few conspiracies theories of my own, and I'm married to a man who believes in aliens.
Thanks,
Rebecca
Speaking of conspiracy theories, I was bored driving at night last week, and I switched over to AM Radio, and there was some wacko saying that the swine flu virus was created by the government and purposely released into the public. It is sort of lying dormant now, but will be a full blown epidemic by fall. This will give the government an excuse to install martial law, and take away our rights, which was their goal all along. Ya.........ok...... Somebody has just a little too much time on their hands!
ReplyDeleteKarin - if you get time, do a post someday on how to break through a "weight loss plateu." I have lost about 15 pounds so far (the first 10 fairly easily), but over the last few weeks, my scale is "stuck" and I am doing the same things diet and excercise wise, if not more. Are there ways to break through this "plateu?" Thanks!
PS - Hi Rebecca!! Thanks for posting!! Great to have other participants on here visiting and posting!!
