Slimming Down - Fast!

Welcome to my first ever blog post.

You’ve probably guessed that my interest is about Health, Fitness, Nutrition and Well-being. That’s what this new blog is about.

For quite some time people in western countries have long had their basic needs met. We certainly have adequate warmth, shelter and food, plenty of food - so much food that we throw lots of it away. With our huge resources, until recently, food has become cheap and abundant.  Just think, McDonalds – you can get a Happy Meal for £2.00 or so.

At the same time, a large number of us have grown fatter as our job roles have made less physical demands on us, as we have successfully transitioned to a more service economy where we do less physical work. As a result of being more sedentary, (it’s not the only reason) obesity is fast becoming a big problem and many of us stand to not fulfil our destinies if we continue on as before – in other words, if we don't fix ourselves we’re gonna die prematurely because of our failing organs and over-fat bodies!

During the coming blog posts, I’ll share with you my experiences and encounters with Health, Fitness and Nutrition. That might be in the form of reviews of product that I consider useful or beneficial, it might be of food that I consider to worth of a mention, it might be an exercise program for those of you that might be short of time or it might be of books that I find of value or even of ideas I come across that I disagree with. Anything that I think is likely to help or be of value to you I’ll pass on from wherever I find it so that you don’t have to bother.

Additionally, I'll add information about things I discover that might affect your overall wellbeing - for example, I recently stumbled across some fantastic pillows that have changed my life - I'll mention those in another post.

So in this blog, I’ll do my best to tell you what works and what does not as best I can.

When you get a free moment why not drop me a comment letting me know what you think. Let me know if you agree or disagree with my views and have any views or recommendations of your own. Let me know if there is any information you’d like to see here.

Kindest regards

Dominic
