"Consuming more than a couple of tablespoons at a meal can increase free radical damage of cholesterol." Scratches head. Olive oil is such a mystery to me. So two tablespoons for one meal would do for me I guess. Thanks for the info Susana. Ve...

Referring to Susana's post on Greek Island. "They also have a diet that's very interesting," Buettner continues. "It's very high in olive oil; it's very high in fruits and vegetables." It's also very high in greens; about 150 kinds of veggies g...

About Me:
Just another lad who is in the process of losing weight.

I was 363 lbs and currently 169.4 lbs. It took me four years to burn those fatty fats.

My target is 143 lbs. That seems to be the most ideal weight for my height.

I still have a long way to go but I will make it. I'm very optimistic with it.

I am a brisk walk junkie. I also love to dance.

One thing that I love about weight loss is having a neck. Yes, a neck. By golly, I love my neck. Thus my profile photo.

Hello World: New Vlog

New Vlog: The Moment

Unlike the previous two, The Moment is a full animation vlog. The Moment has a direct message but it is also quite full with metaphors. It took two weeks to produce this animation video.

I believe this vlog has a lot of space for improvement especially the audio… Continue
