Book Review: The Blood Sugar Solution 10-Day Detox Diet: Activate Your Body's Natural Ability to Burn Fat and Lose Weight Fast

I really wanted to try something different in helping me lose a few pounds and reignite a better healthy lifestyle. I'm already moderately physically active, but when it comes to food, I'm a total failure. I love my savory food, McDonald's French Fry to those kettle chips you find at Trader Joe's. They are indeed my salty kryptonite!

After reading and trying this 10-day detox, I would have to say it was hard to literally follow step by step instructions but what I got out of it was to rethink the way and what choices I make in what I put in my body. This past 10 days has been interesting, I lost a few pounds but don't really see physically any changes. But as the book mentions, page 206, "... it gave you a taste of what is possible".

Purged for now, any carbs, trying more protein, vegetable, and salads. I hope this will be a great new way to enjoy food in my life.

Movie Review: Send Help

The movie, Send Help premiered this past Friday and I wanted to makes sure I enjoyed a movie outing. I know many people don't go to theaters to watch films these days, but it's a perfect getaway as I have so much room to enjoy a movie without people whispering a movie's plot in the back row.

Especially these days, political upheaval, social pressures, and anything else that can get on my nerve. Movies has been an escape for me. Period. I'm old school. When I read the movie summary and saw the trailer, I thought "oh, another Rom-Com ". Boy was I mistaken. It was a good selection for a movie that weekend. Another movie called, Melania was being heavily promoted but received barely any fanfare, thank god! It was a political documentary on the current U.S. First Lady, Melania Trump . Another political annoyance. She ended up receiving ov...

Book Review: Madam Secretary, A Memoir - Madeleine Albright

It took me awhile to read this memoir from Madam Secretary , but it's so appropriate to have completed reading this memoir as we are in an election year. How funny is it that some of her challenges back in in the 1990s is here again. Repackaged in a way that is seemed like something new but realize it's something that could have been resolved back then takes center stage in an attempt to win an election. I remember very well how those very issues were pressing, but our American government lacked the political will to make things whole on behalf of the American people and global citizens. Seems like it becomes a generational attempt of presenting something that's old but reworked to be something acutely important today. Madam Secretary, clearly documents and shares her trials and tribulations of being a first female Secretary of State . Personally, I found it refreshing as I knew she as up to the tasked. As a public service for so many years, it seemed fitting that sh...
