i think its really sad that some of you limit the things that you eat...you need a health balance..so yes that means you CAN have some saturated fat in your food! you can have a chinese once a week, you can have a burger when you hungry and you can have sugary drinks...
honestly i dont limit what i eat! i have a curry once a week, a chinese once a week and a full roast dinner every sunday! i eat crisps, chips, cake, fruit and bread and generally anything i can get my hands on...

but here is what makes it acceptable to put all this in my body!

monday: i play county badminton for 3 hours,
tuesday: i go to the gym for an hour, mixture of cardio and weights
wednesday: my day off :)
thursday: gym for an hour with cardio and weights
friday: badminton again for 2 hours
saturday: another day off, but sometimes i go to the gym depending on what i have on
sunday: gym again for an hour!

now that makes 8 hours of exercise a week...its not alot!! but it means that im burning alot of calories!

live life, dont limit your diet, just live a helathy life and you will feel great!

actually, pure distilled water is not good for the body, and should be re-mineralized to approximate gatorade without the sugar. It does indeed leech minerals unless it's remineralized before drinking. This effect is a scientific law, also present in osmosis, introducing empty distilled water lowers the vital properties of the body, unless it's properly mineralized to be compatible with the body, exactly opposite but similar to the way ocean-salt water must be de-mineralized to be compatible with the body.

most tap water has pollutants which are gone from distilled, but unless it's adjusted it's not good for high levels of consumption.. a little bit isn't a big problem but in large quantities over time distilled water has side effects unless that water is adjusted to be compatible with the body. the body is highly electrical, pure distilled water is not electrically conductive, that is one aspect that shows that introducing large quantities of distilled water isn't good for a highly electrically active body.. thus the importance of adding mineral supplements, which are electrically active by nature, thus making the water more like what you see in gatorade, which is specifically enriched to support the electrolytic actions of the body.. pure distilled water lowers electrical propensities of the body fluids in large quantities, this is just science fact, or there wouldn't even be a need for gatorade.. active people drinking lots of water, distilled or not, also need to replenish the electrolytes as well.

salads , salads and more salads. I binge on salads and veggies at night and only eat at restaurants once or so a week as my reward.

I used to drink a lot of Coke and Pepsi. In mid-October I quit drinking soft drinks completely and now drink mostly water. I feel much better.

In the last year
- lost over seventy pounds
- started an exercise program - upper first day, lower second day, rest, repeat
- drinking a lot more water then ever before
- no more fast food, soft drinks are a special treat no longer daily consumption
- very conscious of what I put into my body
- no drugs, very little alcohol (like a couple of times a year)
- forced myself to be more active
- listen to what my body is telling me then respond accordingly
- focusing more on what is in front of me and not what is behind me

- I drink a LOT less these days than I used to, and only do drugs once in a blue moon and don't plan to do that any more

- I started working out and built size and strength and reduced my bodyfat percentage, and increased my cardiovascular efficiency

- I recently sorted out my diet as well, eating a lot more fruit and veg, lots of beans and pulses, cutting out most sugar and saturated fat

NOTE FOR IRISHMUSCLE:

The research that I've done on distilled water shows that it makes the body acidic.
As you may or may not know, an acidic body is not healthy.
Ozonated springwater is clean, and contains minerals.

In wine there is wisdom
In beer there is freedom
In water there is bacteria.

I've decided to throw caution to the wind and enjoy the happiness that my lifestyle offers. Perhaps it's the cancer I suffered through that's changed my outlook.

I will not keep myself locked in the confines of a strict regime in hopes of buying me a few extra hours, days or years at the expense of the latest alleged health study findings.

I will eat, drink and do what I want if it brings me emotional content.

You only live once. If you do it right, once is enough.

- No more dairy milk! (Not only because of how fatning it is and how hard it is on the human body, but because of how the cows and calves are treated.

- I can count on one hand how many times I have had a soda... of any kind... in the past three years. I have stopped drinking any sort of pop/soda. Along with a million other harmful reasons, it's aweful for the skin.

- Stopped drinking hard alcahol like Vodka.

- Stopped buying white bread for the house. Sometimes I get it when out to eat, but never in the house.

- YOGA!!! I believe it's the cure for everything mentally, physichally, and spiritually!!

- Hot tea everyday!

- HONEY!! It's been the staple of so many cultures!

- Meditation! I have found it has improved my health and outlook on life to take at least 5 minutes to meditate daily.

- I keep a journal of my thoughts, the foods I eat, the excersize I do. Just everything I find important, goes into my journal.

- Long walks! Even if I have worked out. Long walks in nature, near the river, downtown.

- Being aware of the life of people and nature around me. Focusing on the little things that make life worth living.

- I take myself out to dinner and a movie ALL the time. I decided it was more pathetic sitting around wishing I had someone to take me on dates than to get out and do it by myself. I love movies!! I was depressed not seeing them. Now I have a movie date every time I want to see one!!!
