Hey marsh,
losing weight and leading a healthier life is always a worthwhile goal.
I'm aware of the fact that pretty much everybody has his own diet they discovered
for themselves, and they go around telling everybody about it, promoting it. It's ridiculous.
But I've discovered a great diet for myself and I totally swear by it: it's the
blood type diet by Peter D'Adamo - there's also the bestselling book Eat Right 4 Your Type.
Check out the website
http://www.dadamo.com/Basically, the theory is that there's a certain diet for each individual blood type. As man evolved,
and based on the geographical region the various blood types evolved, people of a certain blood type
ate certain things. Then, in our present time, people live all over the world and eat all kinds of sh*t that has nothing to do with what our ancestors (of the same blood type) ate.
But anyway, I'm type 0, and that means I'm some sort of Neanderthal (ugh ugh, meat...yummy!) and
my diet is heavily based on fish and meat and...liver...AAAH!!!
But it works: I lost a lot of weight (while still eating the same amount of food), and I feel much much better and more alive and vivid than ever before. The blood type diet for my type dictates that I refrain from
eating wheat products (and I REALLY love pizza and pasta). So that's the only downside to this...
Anyway, good luck with your diet plans.
