Excellent reads for people who wanna lose weight and transform their body.

Please adjust your eyeballs to the “intake” setting. I’m about to lay some great reads on ya that may prove to be mighty helpful to your weight loss and body transformation missions. I usually don’t mind at all if you skim through my posts instead of reading every word, but no skimming allowed this time! Warning: I just installed an anti-skimming device onto this blog post. Everyone who skim-reads will immediately receive an electro-shock to the eyeball for being naughty.

FITNESS RX FOR WOMEN: Holy crap. Their website is seriously awesome. It’s like rolling around in a sandbox of fitness-resource euphoria (but you won’t get any sand granules in your bikini bottoms). It’s truly a smorgasbord of good information. The site is jam packed with workouts, printables, videos, nutrition tips, recipes, body transformation stories, targeted training plans for abs, arms, legs, shoulders & more. Just go check out the site already. Sheesh!

WHEAT BELLY: Have you heard of the book? This one is a New York Times bestseller. Although there’s a small dose of controversy (nay-sayers & eyeball rollers) surrounding Wheat Belly, the consensus is in. Most consumer reviews on Amazon give it 5-stars. Yes, I bought the book. I skimmed through it, then put it down. I picked it up again, talked to some people about the book, and talked to others who followed through on ditching or extremely lowering their wheat intake. Then I put it into practice for myself. The book deals with problems stemming from the wheat of today; the kind that has been effed with through genetic tampering, not the wheat of olden days.

I’m entering week #3 of significantly reduced wheat intake. Oh yes I am. I’m only eating bread products 1 or 2 times per week now. That’s it. This change has made a SERIOUS difference in an accelerated kind of way. I’m feeling lighter and leaner. My stomach is flatter! There’s less bloating. I’m less farty, too, which I didn’t expect would ever happen. If you or a loved one are fighting the fat, experiencing unresolved health problems (even if there is an official diagnosis), or any weird symptoms that can’t be pinned down to a certain issue, this book will open your eyes to how wheat may be affecting your body. The Wheat Belly book. You must!

3 Things People Treat Better Than Their Bodies

Some people love things and stuff, and maybe even other people more than they are willing to love themselves through self-care. Join me as I bitch about it just a little bit.

1) Hair and Nails ‘n Stuff

Well, yes. These things are technically part of the body, but it’s a crime when someone is so caught up in their hair and nails that they neglect to care for the other parts of their body that are screaming for healthy attention. This brings to mind some obese woman who take great pride in their appearance, but only limit it to their hair, nails, trendy clothes, designer handbags and shoes, while neglecting to address a more serious matter – their obesity issue. Why spend 2 hours in a hair salon or 4 hours shopping, but not so much as 15 minutes on exercise?

2) Automobiles and Electronics

Some people (mostly guys) go to great lengths to ensure the proper maintenance and protection of their car and electronics. They get regular oil changes and you won’t find a speck of trash in their vehicle. If the Xbox isn’t working right, they’re quick to troubleshoot the problem and get it back in action asap. But as for their body’s proper maintenance? No way. Will they troubleshoot their weight gain with healthy solutions? No again.

3) Kids and Animals

These two can be interchanged, of course. Because my own kids are a BUNCH OF FRACKIN’ ANIMALS….and vice versa.

I’m not coming down on the people who are good to their kids. You should be good to your kids, dammit. But don’t sacrifice your own well being in the process of caring for your children. They should not be blamed for why you are not caring for yourself properly – whether it be physically, emotionally, or whatever. This type of self care is a decision, and you have to make room for it.

There are lots of moms I hear whine about not being able to shower on any given day, because their baby is too demanding and somehow won’t allow it. Well put the baby in the crib – she won’t melt if she cries – and then go wash up, or take 30 minutes to do an exercise DVD or fix your hair and pluck your chin hairs. If you have kids, please, take care of yourself. I see a lot of spiffed up, vibrant kids walking around next to a run down mom whose weight is climbing as she dons a tumbleweed hair-do and baby food stains on her clothes. That needs to stop.

And then you have the animal lover whose canine gets regular vet checkups and the best of dog food life has to offer. But the animal owner himself hasn’t been to the doc in years and eats McDonald’s for dinner.

Even as I rant about what other people aren’t doing right [insert free speech disclaimer here], I’m also using this an as opportunity to examine where I fall short. My weakest area is putting other people before myself way too often. The negative impact of this self neglect many times shows up in my attitude, my energy level and my physical appearance. But this is going to change….immediately.

I WILL do more to treat myself better. Won’t you join me in this promise?
