OK, and welcome tomy blog, it is now officially 2009, and a brand new year…. as an aside, I was talking to an Indian friend the other day, and he told me that they use a different calender, and they are technically 500 years ahead of us… he thought that was very funny. I didn’t. (Joke) I did, and I found it fascinating- almost like simultaneous worlds side by side.

Anyway, a bit of a deep way to start, I am not intending on getting woo woo here, let’s talk about my New Years Resolutions, which I am actually keeping as best that I can. That said, I read an article that made a very good point, that there is nothing particularly sacrosanct about the year 2009, or any New Year… we can make resolutions any time we want to, and make changes whenever we feel like it, as soon as our next breath if we want.

So,what are my NYR’ions?

Have you heard of John Gray, perhaps not, if not you probably have heard of Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus… yes, him, well he is also a medical researcher and has come up with a Mars Venus diet, that gets our brain chemistry right, you know, our neurotransmitters, dopamine, serotonin and the like, giving more mental focus and clarity, and also as a rather nice by-product- healing our bodies, and losing the excess weight, at a rate of a pound a day. Yes a pound a day- safely. But because it is a healing protocol, if you are underweight (which I am most certsinly not), you would GAIN weight. Clever eh?

And you know what, it is EASY, that said there are 2 fasting days, the first of which is tomorrow, so I will let you know…. and I am going skating with Ashlea (my daughter and her friend)- and the last time we went we indulged in obscene amount of Kentucky Fried Chicken, and no doubt they will want feeding… Oh man, I will let you know if I succoumb to temptation… No fillet burger for me thanks, I am going to indulge in my Lithuim Orotate supplement….

I will keep you updated…. and soon I will be Svelte– Svelte I say.

The only other thing with this diet and exercise regime is an exercise called bounce and shake, which looks like being on a trampoline, without being on one, which stimulates the lymph system.. which clears the toxins out of the body…. including the acids, caused by stress, and poor food and other things as well.

On the first day of it, I itched in funny places, on the second day, My wrists hurt- who would have thought I would have had acids in my wrists. Who knew?

Will keep you uptated on my acid removal.
