Why Many People Can’t (Won’t) Lose Weight:

Written by on

People complain to death about not losing weight/fat…WHILE they are engaged in roughly the same behaviors and lifestyle as they have always lived.

Doing the same thing, over and over again, and expecting a different result.

You don’t have to be a raw foodist to lose fat/weight.  I personally am not, and I consider my program to be something of a “bridge” for those who may be headed in that direction.

But have you ever looked at most of those raw foodists?

And many of the vegans?

The live-food folks?

Or the fruitarians?

These people are not going to the local grocery store for any reason except the produce section.

They do not go down the other isles and pick from the myriad of items, all designed to cater to the taste buds for the least amount of money possible.

These people, are, in their vast majority…trim and fit people.

These are somewhat “extreme” lifestyles according to western civilization.

But they are also, at least in part, the wave of the future.  It will simply be the natural direction of things, because hints of these movements gaining speed and numbers are already in place and have been for years.

It may take another 100+ years, but it will happen.

In the meantime, you have part of  the key, the “secret,” (there is no secret) to how to help yourself get there:

A radical change in behavior and lifestyle.

Because it simply works, BUT…

Are  you willing?

Nature’s Path Organic Rice Puffs Bag/Label Change:

Written by on

As one of the few grains I eat during the week, I have come to enjoy Nature’s Path organic rice puffs as a no-sugar option to getting calories and minimal protein in to a sort of breakfast/lunch “shake” I make, flavored with either some chocolate stevia or my new body-re-building juice supplement which has plenty of natural sweetness and can easily flavor a shake (recipe for this I’ll give out later).

I was looking for this product in it’s usual place, and realized that they changed the bag (it comes in a loose bag with an explanation on it regarding how much energy is used to produce the bag in comparison to using the standard cardboard box).  The new bag is an orange color, and I almost missed it.  As often happens to me, when I find products I really like…they usually discontinue them within a short time.

;)…(I’m being silly, but it’s actually very true).

The bummer with this new bag is that they do not have the old “checklist-style” layout on the back, that stresses what the product does and does not contain…such as, (and the most important omission)…that the rice is not GMO.

This is a concern for any of the grain products these days. 

And many people do not know that organic standards *should* mean that the food is NOT a GMO.   I say “should,” because these days, from what I’ve researched, there is apparently a slight “gray area” here where the non-GMO standard MAY not be being adhered to with certain foods.

So I intend to contact the company to confirm that the product is the same.  And I’ll ask them why they would omit this information, that so many of us find very important when we’re stuck getting our foods from the garbage (oops…I mean “grocery”) store.
