RAF068: Know and Go and the Squirrel Report
from Running: A FEVER Hosted by Michael Davis
When people notice how much weight I have lost, they often ask me how I did it. What diet I would recommend. And at this point I can only say what I have done, what worked for me. For people who are like me, the answer is that they need to find foods they like that fit into a lower-calorie diet. This is really different for each person. But that isn't the answer people need to hear. The important thing to know is that I was able to get off the weight-loss "train" and have a diet and exercise plan that keeps me going and maintaining my weight. It started with the habit of exercise. But it's also about that "external factor" that is important enough to me to make health necessary and not just a good idea. It started with a podcast and you know the rest. I thought about writing a book about the caveman diet, but it seems there are already a lot of them out there. Fitness books are big business, because everyone wants to know about it, but are they really doing anything about it? Everybody wants to know, but nobody wants to go. Sometimes critters can get real close in this urban environment, where they are not likely to get shot at. I relate my favorite squirrel story, which goes back to my first visit to Washington, DC.
