Introduction
This is really simple. I’m known for explaining things in my own odd way.
Therefore, you may have to read excerpts a couple of times. I want you to because it is not really as complex as you, or anyone else, would like to make it. Quite simply, you eat what you know is right, get off your butt, turn off the TV, and don’t live in front of the computer.
And move your body. Don’t worry I am not going to preach exercise to you, but if you think buying this book sitting down in front of your TV while eating a bag of Fast-Food at 11:00 at night is going to help you lose 170 pounds, then you are sadly mistaken. My point don’t waste your time and money buying this book if you’re not going to
follow the “rules”
Because you will not lose any weight if you don’t live the way of the book. Yes, this refers to change, the big scary six-letter word the world cannot except when it affects them personally. My biggest pet peeve the last couple years is eating lunch with some friends and someone at the table eating fried chicken dipped in some fat based dressing with enough fries to build a child’s log cabin, drinking a sugar laden daiquiri after slurping down a cream based soup about to order bread pudding with rum caramel sauce for dessert turns to me and says “so how did you lose all that weight I’ve tried to but I just can’t seem to do it” For some odd reason I want to say are you that stupid you idiot.
Do you realize what you’re eating? of course not, then I calm my self down smile and say “its pretty easy call or send me your e-mail and I’ll tell you”. If they follow up I proceed if not there lose (or gain) not mine.
Sound harsh I know yet I’ve came to the realization some people have no clue what the cause and effect of what they are so instead of getting aggravated with ninety percent of the world I have laid it out for you. Know I can say “ have you read the book”?
And if they say yes I will say read it again or you have wasted your time and money. If no I will keep a trunk full sign a copy put my e-mail address in it take their money and wish them Luck!
So read enjoy and, Good Luck!

Thermal index::::::::::::::: Drink Cold
Simple- Your Body is 98.5 your drink 38-41 degrees So what?
Here is one of those cause and effects your body can not let the liquid stay at 40 degrees so it must heat it up to heat it up it must work to work it must burn calories!
How about those apples.
Cold coffee “ice” my father came from an old Italian family he would keep extra coffee in a container in the fridge I would gag to watch him drink it out of the container all old and stained it was like a stash of moon shine no one could touch but the big secret was we didn’t want to.
As we all learn some day dads know best well, to this day he will admit he just liked it. But he was on to something. He wouldn’t put the coffee in hot he would pour it in on his lunch brake after it cooled this keeps it from being bitter of course I was afraid to drink out of his coveted grail so while studying one night I made fresh coffee poured hot into a container mixed ice then froze it. To say I woke up quick it tasted like I took a straight shot of bitters from my grandpas liquor cabinet.
After all the research I under stood. That is also why when you go to your favorite coffee house of the week and they say I am sorry we are out of ice coffee and you think there is coffee everywhere just cool some down they are trained not to let them let you make that shocking discovery to compromise the quality of their product.
So now all you nutritionists are saying “where’s the part about drinking two gallons of water a day” Guess what I don’t nor did I drink much water I can not stand the nasty taste of chlorine charcoal and whatever other chemical used to re-filter my neighbors sewer two weeks ago.
Bottled taste like plastic.
Tea, coffee, diet drinks. Yes water is better for you but I’m telling you what I did and I’m not going to fabricate into some cute little package everyone will like. You do what is best for you stray away from sugared drinks and white wine regular beer and so on you know the enemy
Understanding your pallet.
The food you eat must contain the following it often gets lost in the diet world and dietitian could give a care less they are the accountants of the food world its all about the numbers.
Covering basic flavor.
This is very important our tongues taste buds respond to different flavors when you eat a food that seems very appealing it is often because it satisfies your full pallet. Were im going here is sweet is one of the flavors therefore instead it gets left out of many “diet” recipes. It is a shame that the “sweet” gets left out because this means that the sour will be too strong then we have to tone that down then the salty is too much and so on. What do we get then? Good old-fashioned bland diet food. I almost for got we have all these wonderful chemicals and substitutes made of God only knows what, if your looking to use all that junk you picked up the wrong book . I like to find these flavors in natural ways and use potent flavors so we use less, what a concept.
So what are these four flavors?
Sweet – Sugar is not the devil last I checked. The average American does eat over three pounds a week, which may be the problem you think?
Salty- You cant have salt? Your blood pressure is too high? I have one piece of advice for you. Take the salt off the table. If this cute little fun shaker was not so handy you would be much better off. What I did was bought Kosher salt it takes a lot to get it out of a shaker, this way if its not their you cant use it, yet you still have it to cook with.
Sour- Pucker up limejuice seems to be the best a little more consistent then lemon and smaller easier to control. Lemons are great too but don’t be afraid to experiment. Please what ever you do don’t buy the juice if you are too lazy to squeeze a piece of citrus we have a big problem.
Heat-Heat from a spice or pepper. Don’t worry we are not cooking spicy food this factor is needed to satisfy the full experience of flavor this is why the hot little pepper shaker sits next to it’s friend the salt shaker.
Texture- Texture is very simple make sure you have a balance and the proper foods have the texture they need
Lettuce for example should be very crisp.
Raw carrots should have a nice crunch.
Rice should be fluffy not gummy or crunchy.
Were is it safe to eat out?
I’m not sure were I heard this but it makes sense look around if everyone is big or over weight run! If most of the people look fit or at least healthy you a safe. I would not recommend this to be your only guide but watch and see.
Safe places for you are places you know you can get something healthy. Calling ahead of time to ask questions is great, it takes the uncomfortable part when you sit you have to ask at the table. Please for the restaurants sake don’t make up some story that you are allergic to fat or you will brake out in hives, remember most chefs have studied food allergies and know no such thing exsist. This will just set a bad tone with the kitchen and you don’t want that.
