Have you ever wondered what was in Cornflakes? I remember eating a this breakfast cereal as a child and like many others unsuspecting people who to this day eat this processed breakfast treat thinking it is a healthy option. I am not an expert as far as nutrition goes but I am smart enough to read labels. I found this funny video by Tay Zonday who reads the label of Cornflakes for us and you might be surprised by the ingredients. I guess this is just another reason why going raw is just an easier option to live with.

I wanted to write today and give you guys just a brief update on what’s been up with me. First of all I want to point out that this is not an easy task. I find it so typical that many folks who are not on a raw food diet assume that it is so easy.

Many people may assume that you have a fat reset button or something that you hit and then you suddenly become a fat loss machine that burns pounds off almost instantly. NOT!!!

In real life losing weight takes discipline and hard work. It is almost the equivalent to building a new house in a sense. You have to first read the blueprint then lay down the foundation 1 brick at a time.

I have been so worried lately about delivering on my own personal goals. I am now figuring out that I just have to relax. I mean after all I am not running a relay or anything like that. This is a 12 month study that I am conducting because I am personally at a point in my life where I am ready to create change. This is my own challenge and now I am starting to realize that and not put so much pressure on myself when I see others do what I am trying to do now.

I feel that in fitness and weight loss everyone has their own personal story and this one is mine. It is the story of a man on a mission to get fit and how it plays out is just how the story will end up. Yea I know what you are probably thinking now, “NO PRESSURE!” LOL

I have been surrounding myself around real raw food junkies lately and this is indeed motivational FOOD!!!

I personally do better on a diet or anything I do challenging when I am around like minded individuals who can identify with my struggle.

I have also been reading books like The China Study. I have been watching movies like Supercharge Me! 30 Days Raw and started using my York Barbell 300 lb Olympic Weight Set 3 times a week.

I am putting my action pants on now and wearing them so I can really do this thing already. I am taking it one day at a time but I am feeling like I can do this. I am feeling like I got this and the only person in my way is me this time around.

I am also feeling good about the weather now that it is breaking. It is beginning to heat up so I plan to start walking again and this is something I do enjoy doing. I love to walk outdoors and enjoy nature so I plan to do it more often. I think this will help out greatly with my plans to lose weight. So that is it for now I will talk to you guys next post and maybe even reveal a few things you might not know I have been doing lately. Talk to you soon!!

It is about 10PM on a Saturday night and I have nothing to do but post to my blog. I have a ice box full of nothing but health junk and a memory of a bad day which lead to spending the evening  trying to payback my belly with feeding it nothing for dinner. Healthy right?

I know what you probally are thinking but whatever I am ranting right now, so let me vent..

The bad news is I am still a little angry and as long as 24hr fast food joints are open I still have a chance to go crazy right? WRONG!!  I am just at a point in my life that pity parties are not really excuse enough to punish my gut and destroy my heart anymore.

I have just got off of web watching streams of the biggest loser and feel like a last chance workout might do me some good so the hell with it I am about to get it in and hit the sack.

I hate bad days just as much as the rest of you guys,  but I just decided to use it to my advantage and flip the anger into a fitness affair. So for me it is time for a Last change workout at my home gym.  Later guys..
