Diet change, and the effect it can have.

The biggest issue I've encountered in my quest to better myself, is people's food choices and diet structure. Simple things that can lead to losing the pounds that just seem to stick with us.

This is all personal experience and opinions, take it as you want.

My biggest change came from a single sentence that stood out to me. "Breakfast, is the fuel we need in our empty fuel tank every morning." I adjusted my diet accordingly, making breakfast my priority meal of the day, lunch being medium, and dinner being small.

My breakfasts usually consist of a 2 egg spinach, tomato and goat cheese omelette. Eggs are great sources of protein, which will help keep you full longer. With a piece of whole grain toast.

Breakfast is probably the biggest change I have made to my life besides cutting out as much bad food as possible. Having a larger breakfast and smaller subsequent meals has resulted in me not being as hungry throughout the day, but also less hungry at each individual meal. My overall energy in a day has increased as well, coming home I'd be tired at 7 pm give or take, now I have enough energy at any time to do whatever I want and not be phased by it.

I've lost 30lbs after making this change to my diet. I'll go more in depth into the foods I eat and make in the next entry. Set goals for yourself just make sure they're reasonable, it all starts with your mindset and whether you want to do it for yourself. Diet is only one part of the big equation, sadly, hard work is involved too.

Next time, breakfast avec moi, expect it up tomorrow night!

2012..The Year of who?

New year, resolutions, memories and days gone by.
Happy 2012, everyone, congratulations on making it this far.

The misconception that I'm finding with this whole new years thing, people and resolutions. I understand that its basically a fresh start thats forced upon you  due to the rotation of our planet around our sun. The only real issue I have with resolutions is the waiting up until new years to start those resolutions. My friends resolution this year was to quit smoking, they started before new years came around, and they are doing good! I guess what I'm trying to say is, why wait around for new years?

Everyday is a new beginning in my eyes, so that makes every single day the perfect time to set some goals, and start working towards them immediately that day. Diets suck, working out can suck, you want that cheeseburger, i dig buddy. But you gotta say, "fuck you craving, i'm better than that and will destroy you with this healthy piece of celery!" Cigarettes, a mistress I refused to ever try, I can only imagine what people trying to quit must be going through. I do know that once you do quit smoking, you will feel alot better!

Life is what we make of it, our happiness is dependent solely on us. So don't put things off any longer in your life, take charge now. Grab life by the hips and hump it into submission and make it your bitch.

I love you all, and wish you the best for this new year.

Comic Book Movies

Comic book and super hero movies are all the norm nowadays, though there may be plenty of choices to pick from, how often are they ever all they're hyped up to be?

Let me just start by saying that I love a well done comic book movie, there are plenty of great examples to choose from don't get me wrong, but quite a few stand out as, really? Thats what you did with all that production money? Movies where your at the end of the movie and you realize that the story never really had that, beginning, middle, end feeling to it. It felt more like it was just a long beginning then skip to the final battle of good vs evil.

For instance, in the recent Captain America movie, I won't give any spoilers, I'll leave it at: The story didn't develop and seemed way too fast. With that though, the movie overall was still pretty good. One other movie really comes to mind is Spiderman 3, where they chose to cast the evil venom as Topher Grace. Just because Toby is skrawny, doesn't the big hulking evil doer has to be as well.

Anyways, end of blog rant, haha have a good one errryyboddy.

General Accounts of Happiness

One of the great things about humans that I like is that we're all quite different, in how we feel, how we act, who we are and what we stand for. This is one of the things that makes great conflict and great understanding within our race as a people. 

The past few weeks of my life have been a nonstop chain of events that I didn't for the life of me see coming. An old friend that I used to have a rather large crush on came back into my life, with a dizzying amount of chances to spend time together. After over a year of not having spoke to one another, things between us feel like they have changed for the better. The simple gestures, the time we spend together and the appreciation we have for one another seem to emanate to the forefront of our friendship now.

I haven't been happier, for as long as I can remember. 

Technological Age

We as a species has arrived at a point, where technology may as well be considered another life form on this planet.Today the Reasearch in Motion servers (blackberrys) crashed apparently, leaving thousands without BBM, as well as blackberry emails and such for those that use that feature. Now, the outrage people expressed was....alot to say the least. Its crazy how connected and involved technology is with us, not just in our lives, but its literally almost like an attachment for our bodies it seems like.

Today though we have developed the technology to improve ourselves as well. There are robotic limbs that work like our hands do, perform all the functions we can. Also there is even cybernetic eyes now. Heres some mind blowing stuff, http://myownscientia.blogspot.com/2011/09/researchers-developing-new-form-of-life.html. Read that, craziness.

In short, technology, despite not being self aware yet, is clearly evolving along with us, getting more complex, and more impressvie everytime something new is developed.

p.s. Theres two Artificial Intellegence computers developed now in the world, and they apparently hooked them together, and the first thing they started doing to each other was lie to each other. Learned well from us eh?

Negative, never the answer.

Hey there interwebs.

Now I'm negative, I won't try and deny it, but I've seen the pros of being positive towards situations. The thing that i find lacking alot of the time in people and in our conversations, is the use of the unnecessary. How many times have you been in a conversation or a debate on a subject, and the people your talking with start pulling down negative "what if" statements and try to swing the conversation in their favor. Whether its putting down the other person's or trying to make their own side of the conversation or debate seem more appealing, or more important. I will not have any of this speculation and craziness in my conversations, if you want to talk to me, talk to me with facts and clear statements.

There is so much that we don't understand about everything, lets be honest here. There were times when Antarctica wasn't covered in ice, islands that were swallowed by the oceans because of rising levels and at a time when the technology wasn't there, they built the pyramids as well as other great structures. These are just a few of the bewilderments of the world, will the mysteries of the world ever have answers presented for them? Negativity will not get us there, and negativity will not unite our race as it needs to be.

Human beings are at a density now that, we have lost our responsibility. We were never meant to live in groups of thousands, we used to be groups of 50 hunting only what we needed to survive, there was a doctor for x amount of people, there was a blacksmith for x amount of people. The co-efficient of population is way off, instead of being 20:1 its now 5000:1 or more!

Our way of life will be changing in the next few years, that I promise you.

Till next time,

Nate

Better at finding the right words to say

You don't even know the things I would say, on my mind each and every single day.
DWAAAAYYYMMMMM!

Whats up everybody, so like 2 of you... LOL

I'm currently in study mode andddd running out of energy. I'm sorry I'm not all proper grammer and spelling in these.. this shit should have auto correct LOL.

Do you guys ever have something come into your life and it just puts you in a tremendously better mood? Happened to me the other day and I have to say, it was a welcome change of pace! I have excitement where there was none, fun and laughter when i felt lonely and life was boring. I'll report back on that as more develops.

In closing,
It is not the destination, but the adventure that gets you there that is important.

Until next time,

Nate
