How To Lose Weight Easily - Turning Weight Loss Into A Game 2007-09-05 13:48:20 A strange thing about me is I turn anything into a game. No matter how trivial or serious - from growing vegetables to promoting staff I always end up creating a game of some form and enlisting other people to play.
Now, I’m naturally quite competetive so that may help me but it made me think [...] Read more:Easily

Diet so it’s time for the “before” details (as of 28/08/07 - I’m a few days late posting them).
Well, truth be told, I have put on some weight since earlier on in the year. I’m living the good life with a new girlfriend and a new apartment and have [...]

Atkins Diet Week 4 Update 2007-09-25 08:56:22 The last few weeks have been a little difficult.

Diet Tip: What Does Food Represent To You? 2007-09-22 15:01:19 Thinking about the percentage of the population who are greatly over weight and who either don’t diet, or try but fail made me think about the food we eat.
Why is it so hard to stop eating chocolate for a while? Why are doughnuts so hard to avoid?

Changing My Perception Of The Atkins Diet 2007-09-19 16:01:46 My perception of the Atkins
Diet before I delved deeply into the subject to research it for my next real-life experiment was twofold:
Firstly it was very dangerous for you because you lost weight so quickly and ate unhealthily, and secondly that all you ate was rubbish. Non stop fried food.
Whilst there is a tiny amount [...] Read more:Changing

What The Richest Man In Babylon Has In Common With Dieting 2007-09-14 15:49:07 George S. Clason’s classic book about wealth accumulation also has an interesting tale to tell about dieting.

Atkins Diet Recipes #2 - Atkins Diet Chinese 2007-10-01 05:56:02 This meal is the closest I could come up with to a Chinese

What I Love About Getting Fit 2007-10-08 06:14:41 I love going to the gym. I love going for a run. I love to achieve. I also love to hear how other people have transformed their bodies.

Are Your Friends Making You Fat? 2007-10-18 06:44:21 A recent study shows that “fatness travels in social circles”. They found that if your friends and/or family are fat, you are far more likely to be.
