Absolute Truth

I read a lot of articles on the web regarding people's health and really it boggles me at how out of touch some people are. Every site I go to has the answer and has tons of examples of how whatever they are touting works and how everything else is crap. So here comes the conundrum: if all these things work and everything else doesn't what the hell is going on? Well as Lewis Black once put it while referring to our health, "We're all snowflakes". And this is true. What will kill me may save you and what makes me gain weight will make you lose weight (because I'm the loser in all these situations). The only time I seriously lost weight in my life was a time I didn't care about it at all. My first semester at college I had a diet that consisted mainly of cookies and energy drinks with some hamburgers and pizza in there for good measure. I always had to servings of dessert and I never paid much head to what was going in me. I lost roughly 30 lbs that semester. My big change was that I started working out nearly every day. I started training for an ultimate team. Days when I didn't have practice I still threw around, but didn't do much more then that. So what does this tell me. Well actually absolutely nothing. It tells me that when I ate shit (and lots of it) but burned a lot of energy I lost weight. Crazy. I've never been able to motivate myself to that same level of exercise but have come close. The problem is I can't maintain it and I wouldn't expect anyone else to either. What I've decided I am going to do with this information is try and start a new blog with a title similar to this post. I'll add an update about that when it happens (I'd like to prepare some content before I actually being publishing). Also I think this title deserves a poem, so I'll get to work on that as well.
