Turn off your tv

Dear Reader,

A lot of people spend several hours a day watching tv and wonder why they don't
accomplish much in life. I have come to find tv completely useless the Internet is far better for information and entertainment. Most of television is on the Internet, just go to hulu.com, youtube, or any major network's website and you will find plenty of free shows. If you are into sports you can usually stream most live events on your laptop or cell phone. If have the willpower to reduce the amount of time you spend watching tv you will find the you have a bunch of free time to pursue productive activities. I have been able to read more books, work on a mixtape, and work on this blog because I have cut almost all tv out of my life. Televesion is nothing but a distraction so get it out of your life.

Sincerely,

Early Morning Workouts

Dear Reader,

What do you do when first get up in the morning. Do you rub your eyes, turn of the alarm clock, and head straight to your shower? If so you could be wasting a valuable opportunity to burn off fat. During the night your body was busy repairing itself and using all the energy stores in your body. When you wake up there is nothing left which makes it a perfect opportunity for you to burn fat. If you start exercising as soon as you wake up your body will have no choice but to burn the excess fat stored on you. I know it is hard to get out of bed and exercise but believe me it is worth it. Nothing is better than early morning exercise. I have made the most gains in fats loss with early morning exercise and I generally feel better the rest of the day when I do. So try it and let me know.

Sincerely,

The Healing Power of the Hand

Dear Reader,

Have you ever bumped into an object such as wall and felt an immense pain? What was your reaction, did you immediately start rubbing the hurt area? If you did you are on the correct path to self healing. The hand has a healing ability that your body knows how to use. When you start rubbing a injured area with your hands you are using the natural healing energy stored in your hands. That's why rubbing a hurt area brings relief. The next time your hurt yourself continue the area on and off for twenty minutes you will feel way better. You can also use this on healing power on other people to help them out. This is why I like going to message therapist that are skilled in using their hands to relieve muscle tension.

Failed Soup Diet

Dear Readers,

I have stopped the soup diet I just couldn't deal with the high levels of salt I was taking in. I need to try this diet when I have accesses to my own kitchen and can make my own soup. I did loose some weight during the first few days but I felt horrible canned soup is one of the worse foods to eat. I am now back on Chinese food and I am feeling way better. I will keep you updated on developments in the alternative health world.

Thanks,
Boblack

Day 1 of the Soup Diet

Dear Readers,

Today is Day 1 of my 7 day soup diet so far it has gone well. I woke up around 10 am and devoured some beef and vegetable soup it was from a can so it was bit salty but otherwise it tasted pretty good. I went to class at 1:25 and during the ten minute break around 2 I drank a banana protein drink. One I got back from my class I had a beef and barley soup. As for how this diet is effecting me: I have a lot of energy but the soup is definitely not filling my stomach. On the plus side my digestive system is getting a well deserved rest. Soup is one of the easiest food to digest and is packed full of nutrients I just wish I had the resources to make my own soup from scratch. The kitchen in my college is horrible and food always seem to disappear out of the fridge.

7 Day Soup Diet

Dear Readers,

I am currently weigh 220 pounds down from 255 my football playing weight. I lost most of my weight by eating Asian food and playing a lot of basketball. My target weight is 205 so I still have a few more pounds to go. I have enjoyed eating Asian food but now I am switching to more aggressive measures to get the last few pounds off. I am going to start a soup diet that consists of me eating nothing for soup for 7 days. Even though this is not the healthiest diet because of the calorie restriction and the high amount of sodium in soaps it is pretty effective many people have reported losing 10 pounds but this may be due to water lost. I will report each day from now on of how I feel and let you know my final weight next week.
