Scale the World

I just found this great site to keep me on track and I thought I'd leave a copy of it here in case anyone else wants to do it too.

I just signed up for this 32 day free weight loss course The course starts in about 10 days after your register for it.

Introduction - http://www.ScaleTheWorld.com/?779 (turn on your speakers)
A little about them and how to sign up - http://www.scaletheworld.com/home.php

I thought I'd use this to help me focus on me and my weight loss whilst my bf is also sorting out some of this concerns. I can't wait to start this and my life's journey going forward. I'm so excited right now.

The first email I got from them is very inspiring and I also thought I'd share that too. Just note it is a little long.

elcome aboard a journey toward.
Toward what, you ask?
Toward a better, more enlightened future.
Toward a lighter, more empowered you.
Toward the life you were designed to create.
This journey will be full of surprises.
There will be days of total breakthroughs followed by days of utter challenge -- and that's okay.

Our goal is 32 days of consistent, open- minded, enjoyable effort.
Learning, changing, expanding, growing healthier in every way, and sharing this with the people you care about.
I will not deceive you -- the summit of your life can be a formidable climb.
The alternative is to forever stay at base camp and never wander beyond the confines of what you consider safe ground.
That safe ground is where most avalanches find their final home.
This is how life can manage to bury you -- by staying put.
Consider how life can snowball, and how much easier it is to hit a motionless target.
All of this is the result of fear.
And, as of today, you can dedicate yourself to living fearlessly.
Let's start today with the first of three "Prepare Yourself For The Climb" emails.
These are designed to get you ready for "Scale The World", which officially begins for you in 10 days.

Step one:
stretch your legs. Get up right now.
It doesn't matter where you are -- you can do this anywhere. Inhale.
Take a deep breath, and raise your arms above your head.
Now, stretch.
People around you will assume you're just...stretching. Y
ou're not. You're reaching.
Look up when you do this.
See yourself in your mind's eye reaching for the next crevasse in the rock; the next foot- hold.
The next bit of level ground. The better view.
I'd like you to spend time just enjoying the little things. Living in the moment.
This may sound trivial, perhaps even silly.
Then again, most every simple answer confounds those seeking complication.


Now, here's what I need you to do:
1. Begin drinking pure water every day. Just make sure you consume more water than any other fluid.
2. Purchase and consume food that you "can see". This is food that contains primarily "one ingredient." Let's make this simple, shall we? An apple has one ingredient: apple! Same goes for a breast of chicken, or a cup of brown rice. Spices are fine -- they do not count.

Also, don't worry about eating "perfect". Just eat foods you enjoy, and get about 75% of your foods from unprocessed sources. Think "no white" and it's hard to go wrong. White flour, white rice, white sugar. All of this is white death.

We want living food. Again, shoot for 75%. The other 25% can be "ordinary foods" -- just keep this in mind: ordinary people eat ordinary foods.
Our goal is the extraordinary, and that can be much more simplistic than you may think. Still, consider this fact: in golf, 3 good shots out of 4 puts you on par. That's 75/25, and that's all you need to make the journey a success. If you're feeling really adventurous, shoot for 85/15. Your body will change "exponentially" as you increase that top number and decrease that bottom one.

3. I'd like you to start a Scale The World Daily Journal. A notebook of your thoughts, your activity, your foods, and your goals. What do you feel like when you eat a certain way, or after a nice long walk? That's it for now...oh, except for this: enjoy yourself. Let's return to having fun as we grow rather than merely growing old.

Still, global obesity, global fear, and disempowerment is so huge, so persuasive, that we all need your help -- the more, the better.

Scale The World -- and leave behind footprints that time itself cannot help but remember.
