FED UP documentary.

We recently discovered Fed Up!, a documentary which focuses on the topic of genetically engineered foods.  The movie uses archival footage and interviews to explore the changes in food production, how the Biotech Revolution took place, and it shows the influence of big industry on our food choices.  The archival footage will be fascinating to many; showing the battle over genetically modified food labeling, the inevitable contamination of our entire food supply through genetically engineered pollens, how they are wiping-out the butterflies and honeybees, and how the great majority of the first pesticides are now illegal — but they remain for decades in farm soils.

31 days of fasting.

Here I go again starting the first of another month with a diet. I got goals to make and fasting is the only way I can reach them. Of course there are pros and cons to fasting, but it works for me. When I eat anything, a trigger is set. It's hard to stay focused, where when I'm fasting it's a mindset.

ONE YEAR!

I started this blog a year ago today. My BMI was 37.6 when I started and today it's 35.9. I had it as low as 34.5 in August, but going to Jamaica set me back. The new goal is to get to 24.9 by 1/27/12 which will be my 50th birthday. Follow me and see how I do.
