Why Am I Always Soo Tied?

-

 Remember back when you were 25 and how much did you weigh back then? Well, if your anything like me, I gained about 30 pounds before I was 35 and an additional 20 over the next 10 years. 

In my case my activity level dropped and my appetite grew. I actually grew from 170 pounds to 220. I went from a 34 waist to a 38 inch waist. That was the breaking point for me. It was like the cigarette machine jumbed up to 50 cents. I couldn't believe it. "That's it I quit." I guess I gave away my age, but that's how the public stops inflation. You have to say no to higher prices and if enough people stop buying the price will go down. 

So back to weight and being tired. When a person is 25 years old, they are fully grown and fully developed. Meaning the organs are as large as they should be for your size. Then after 30 most men start to add weight and size. Your organs have to nourish the entire body no matter how big or small. The more weight and size you gain over the years you are stressing the organs to work properly. 

So why are you tired, because your body functions are working much harder. Your body is using up much of your energy just providing normal body functions like keeping your heart pumping and keeping your lungs breathing. Also, you are now using more energy just walking, climbing stairs, and doing normal tasks. One more thing that we usually forget about is eating. Eating uses up lots of energy. Digesting food takes several hours and uses up almost half of our daily energy allotment. 

I learned the hard way to cut out the foods that added weight to my body and drink lots of water. I now drink about 3 liters of water a day and stopped drinking anything with calories. Yes, I had to stop drinking alcohol. That wasn't easy, but easier than when I stopped smoking. I didn't stop alcohol forever, just when I was trying to lose body fat.

The Mediterranean diet is based on the traditional foods eaten by people living in the Mediterranean region, especially Greece. It's loaded with healthy foods and research findings suggest following this diet may help reduce some of the risk factors for heart disease.  According to the Oldways Preservation & Exchange Trust, the Mediterranean diet was introduced in 1993 by Oldways, Harvard School of Public Health and the World Health Organization.  The diet includes: Olives and olive oil Whole grains, mostly in bread and cereal rather than pasta Very little red meat Fish and seafood Some cheese, but less milk Lots of vegetables and fruit Plenty of legumes and nuts A little red wine The Mediterranean diet is high in fiber and antioxidants from vegetables, legumes and nuts, far greater than the typical Western diet, and low in saturated fat.

Changing Your Life To Lose Weight

-

I can let you in on the ultimate secret for successfully making a change in your life. A century’s worth of psychological research reveals an interesting paradox in who we are. On the one hand, once we reach adulthood our basic personalities remain unchanged for the rest of our lives. We keep doing the same things—and feeling the same ways—over and over. But, on the other hand, every day we change our behavior drastically in response to different environments. Most of us are one person at work, for example, and another person at home. It is easier to change our environment than to change ourselves. So, if you want to change yourself, change your environment. Said differently: Whenever possible, don’t try to fight temptations – avoid them! The easiest way to make a change in your life is to modify the world around you in ways that will naturally drive you toward making, and maintaining, the change you want. There are many ways to change your environment, but let’s focus

Cancer and High Protein Diets

-
On the Fox TV Network the other night, one of the big stories was about high protein diets. A new study has shown a link between the over consumption of animal protein and how it can stimulate the growth of cancer cells. It seems we all have cancer cells but they don’t normally grow, unless we consume too much animal fat, dairy or fats from processed foods. Before I continue I want to explain about the link to cancer. After all, Man has been eating red meat for millions of years, right. That's true but todays red meat is not the same. Most red meat that we buy in the supermarket comes from Steers that have been raised in feed lots on a grain diet that is full of hormones and other chemicals that shorten the growing time and put more fat on the animal. These hormones and other chemicals stay in the meat and what you're buying will contain the chemicals that the animal ate. Normally a grass feed Steer that lives on the range in big herds will take 18 to 20 months to grow to
