A Cheap Holiday in Other People's Misery (catching up with Mordechai Vanunu in Israel)
One of my favourite pieces of music is the Sex Pistols' classic 'Holidays in the Sun' - a song that begins with the line, 'a cheap holiday in other people's misery'. This would have made a fitting epitaph for my holiday in Israel, except that the $3000 air ticket meant that it wasn't exactly cheap.

As the first week of 2006 draws to a close, I am writing to tell you that I have lost 7 pounds so far. The good news is that it wasn't that difficult. Of course the bad news is that now that the momentum has slowed the weight loss traditionally slows as well. I know we need to continue to try to write in our journals the perils of our daily life in order to figure out why we eat to excess. Have you been writing down everything you have eaten this week? Have you continued to write down how and when you move? My guess is not as much as you could but more than you have in the past. That wouldn't be far from my situation. I still need to move more. I still need to eat better. More vegetables and less meat. No eating after 7pm. We all know the rules, but doing them?.............

Well my goal for this week is to only eat at mealtime. The good news is that popular opinion is to eat 5 or 6 small meals a day. Of course small is relative. My meals are usually HUGE! As am I. Another trick is to stop using large dinner plates and only use saucers or sa

Remember I said to eat fruits and vegetables as close to the ground as possible? Raw fruits and vegetables not only provide trace minerals and vitamins that would be lost in the heating process but they are a good source of fiber and you actually burn calories eating them.

Another thing to concentrate on is eating slower. Some have said that you need to chew each bite 30 times to give your body the best chance to break the food into nutrition. This is really tough. But think about it. Can you imagine passing a whole apple through your system? Besides you use more stomach acid to digest larger pieces of food. The smaller, simpler the amount of food swallowed, the less acid theoretically would be needed to digest. Remember saliva also aids in digestion.
