CLARION CALL TO LOOSE FAT.

In the quest for optimal health, I know that diet plays a leading role. This year I have vowed to get to a healthy BMI WITHOUT pills. So the target is to do it in 12 months.
   I will be publishing my food diary as well as some healthy recipes to replace those we inherited from our forefathers that we still eat today...
  The only thing still delaying the onset of this life changing exercise is that my pre ordered exercise equipment has still not been delivered.
     While I wait, I  am issuing a clarion call to all who are very serious about redefining their lives by loosing excess weight whether for health or cosmetic reasons....please join me by dropping me your email address.....okay yes I need buddies for the journey before me is loonnnngggg  and difficult. If you want quick fixes biko don't bother because this will be a marathon not a sprint.
     Kindly go see your doctor first before you start any exercise regime as this blog will just detail my personal experience.
     Ponder on this....
                                         Let food be thy medicine and medicine thy food

HEALTH IS WEALTH

As this year is coming to an end I have been doing a lot of stock taking and deep reflections for the purpose of thanksgiving and moving forward and one thing that has kept recurring in my mind is that I need to protect my health from obesity.

Since I have only one body and  the responsibility of nurturing it lies solely with me- it has become necessary since prevention is always better than cure.

  I have resolved to stop eating like our forefathers because I know I cant be healthy that way in the long run since I am not remotely as physically active as they were.

Another resolve of mine is not to do any of the myriads of fad diets...I just want to go the slow but effective way of healthy eating and good ole exercise --this will make me glow and look younger( I know because i have done it before).

One of my missions for 2014 is to achieve a healthy BMI  ; i am still 'scared' to check my weight.

 I have decided to start blogging my weight loss journey so that I will keep motivated, have a sense of being held accountable and encourage anybody out there who has resolved to do same.

As i await my pre ordered fitness training equipment; i am mentally preparing  myself to loose weight and stay slim.

Ponder on the words below.

        "Lack of activity destroys the good condition of every human being, while movement and                                          methodical physical exercise save it and preserve it."
