Day 0

The Last Supper

 Tonight I partake in the last supper, before I begin my 10lbs in 10 days trial experiment for my article investigating diet claims for Latino Weekly Review. I am anxious to start this long journey, and excited to share my experience with you. I also believe that if I publicly declare this experiment I will be less likely to sway away from the task. An additional motivation, my boss at Latino Weekly Review has put a $50.00 bet for me if I complete the task in the required time.

This being said, my article is not about promoting weight loss and a trim figure, but rather it is an experiment to see if diet claims really do all they are cracked up to do. Since I am under a time frame to write an article I have decided to create a custom regime that will actually be testing several diets at once. Most individuals try a combination of products to jump-start and then regulate their diets so I have decided to stick with a combination of a weight-loss/metabolism booster/appetite suppressor products and a supplement detox plan. My plan for the next 10 days can be found on my Diet Regime and Workout Routine pages. Let the games begin!

Musik

Music is a very powerful thing. It can inspire, it can change your outlook, it can bring on a range of emotions from extreme sadness to extreme joy. It can get your thru a workout, and it can get your thru a funeral. Music reminds me of different people. Im trying to put together a list of songs that remind me of my people in my life. Some music has the best lyrics ever, some only have 3.. and it is the musical rhythm or score that is inspiring. Im being really vague, but I still feel so many people can understand what I am trying to say... music is amazing. 

Think about it.. what songs bring on the strongest memories, feelings, emotions, thoughts in your life? 

What to Say?

Today is my first post ever. I have decided to start this blog as a healthy outlet for my thoughts. I have so many thoughts, and feel many people do to but they express them in very different ways.
Some people write music, some people dance, some people cook, some people paint, and still others sing, and do something creative. Yet others do something destructive, they beat something up, the maliciously talk about someone behind their back, they steal, they drink, they smoke, engage in recreational drugs. I figure there are enough destructive things happening in this world, Im going to add something constructive and write out my thoughts instead of act out my thoughts. I am a very visual person, and from a young age was discouraged to write because of my poor spelling and grammar habits- thank goodness for modern marvels such as the computer, spell check, a free thinking college professor, and my pure lack of nothing else better to do that has lead me to find the joy and magic in unbridled, uninhibited, CREATIVE WRITING.
