Is Christmas about Love or Money?

December 13, 2010

They call this time of year the “silly season”.  When you look at all the madness going around the shopping centres, on TV and everywhere else, it’s not hard to see why.  This is the season when the hype outweighs the voice of reason, and we’re all hypnotised into believing that we have to turn [...]

This last week has seen way more movement on the Raw Food front than the 100 day reality challenge, so this weekend’s summary is focusing on that.  To start with, in 2 weeks I’ve lost just over 2kg.  That’s nearly 5lb for those of you in non-metric.  Ironically, this week I rebounded up to higher [...]
