Cold front blew in last night, lots of wind.
Of course, our "cold front" isn't anything compared to what we used to have in South Dakota. "Cold" here is in the 60s. It means opening the windows and turning off the air.
Has it really been a year? WOW. I can't believe it ... this is what our newsletter looked like one year ago and this is what it looks like today.
For those of you new to reading this, or who just would like to know more about me, check out this candid interview I conducted a few years ago.
Many of you reading this know that the two motivators in life are pleasure and pain. Pleasure seems to motivate addictions, whether it is chocolate, alcohol, or just the few seconds of gratification you get while chomping on a piece of junk food that will leave you in hours of pain from guilt afterwards. Sometimes, the pain is just enough to kick things over the edge. Here is one example: a man decided to start working out at 74, but only after the death of his wife.
Fact or fiction? This article addresses many myths, including holiday weight gain, the total caloric intake people average on Thanksgiving (here's a sobering thought: it would take a 40 mile run to burn off all of the calories consumed on average), and a lot more. For more on the calories you will be eating this Thursday (or have already, in some countries) read this. There's good news, however, because this meal does not have to pack on the pounds. Before it's too late, jump online and receive instant access to the MP3 audios for our Healthy for the Holidays CD set.
After so many articles yesterday talking about how resistance training is not so special when it comes to burning fat, here's one that jumps right in to say lifting weights is king for burning fat.
I also mentioned yesterday that the media is slow to catch on. Jay Robb published the Fat Burning Diet in 1996. Bill Phillip's blockbuster Body-for-LIFE came out in 1999. Both advocate eating several meals throughout the day, spaced between 2 - 4 hours apart. Once again, the media is about a decade late with hype over the 3-hour diet, a book by Jorge Cruise that is bold enough to suggest that low-carb diets ... make you fat! Oh, I have to stop typing until I'm done laughing. Okay, I'm back. Folks, I wouldn't get too excited about this one, but that's just me.
We appreciate your continued support and I personally give thanks for you taking the time to read this.
Warmly,
