New Year Detox

Update: Bluberry Fruz is now pending diagnosis for her lack of thermal conduction.
^ as for myself, I am in better spirits. The bitter bite of winter has let it's grip loose a bit, allowing the weather to be somewhat tolerable. (I am so NOT a winter-person) It's nice and sunny outside and I think that's helping =)
Here I am, sitting at the computer, playing fetch with Rocky. This dog has enough energy for 3! I think since I brought my talula parka, I'll take him for a nice (but quick) winter stroll.

I will continue once I hear more about Bluberry Fruz.
WOOT WOOT!! BLU-E-BERRY is no longer fruz! She's nice and toasty, as am I!! Minimal cost for Maximum Benefit!

Taking note of my New Year's resolution, this show could not have come at a more opportune time. To sum up the points of the show, taking in the listed items does the following to your body

• poisons your body and blood


• excess sugar is converted to fat


• will cause long-term damaging effects leading to such things as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes


• may cause fatigue, water retention, digestive problems, increased flatulence, bloatedness

Overall, this has given me further ground and stabilized my decision to eat healthier for the new year. I posted this to hopefully give you an idea of your present diet. If you can apply yourself to 6 or more of the above-listed items, then it is time to make a change. Use 2008 as a brand-new, healthy start to living!
I am!
