I hope you had a great weekend.

Mine was fantastic.
I attended the Health Freedom Expo in Long Beach, CA. It was really good for me.

If you haven’t been to this event, you should make a point of attending. It is held every year in Long Beach and Chicago.

Holistic health is my forte, so I really enjoy being surrounded by the energy contained in these types of events.

It is always interesting to see what the new fad is every year. Last year it was Nikken water systems, Goji juice, and cell phone protection devices.
This year the flavor of the day is water ionization machines and acai berries.

I’ll write more on these subjects on upcoming posts.

The cool thing about this event is the fact that it has a ton of informative seminars held all day long. In fact, at any given time there are as many as four seminars going on at one time. Very interesting and very cool.

This event was very grounding for me this year.
It helped to give me a renewed sense of who I am.

I help people achieve vibrant health through holistic fitness & nutrition. And I’m really good at it.

I was put on this earth to make a positive impact… to clear up the confusion and help people take control of their lives.

Well, enough about me.

I’ll end this by saying that I look forward to making a huge impact in 2008. There are collaborative efforts being made between myself and other individuals that are very exciting for the coming year and beyond.

Have an awesome week.

It’s true. Disneyland is closing the “It’s A Small World” attraction to install bigger boats that will accomodate bigger riders. 

When the ride was first opened the boats were built to accomodate a 175 pound man and a 135 pound woman. It seems that, with the increased weight of todays population, the boats are routinely bottoming out.

 Al Lutz reported on MiceAge earlier this month that Disney will next year rebuild the ride system of the It’s A Small World attraction at Disneyland to add larger boats and a deeper flume, to prevent what’s become a common occurrence — the 1960s-era boats “bottoming out” and coming to a stop, due to the excess weight of today’s riders.

“The new flume will follow the exact same path as the original, and it will travel past sets that are in the exact same locations. But the extra depth of the new flume and the added buoyancy of the new boats should allow for several hundred extra pounds of churro-loving park visitors to pile into the new boats before they bottom out and bring the ride to a stop,” Lutz wrote.

According to Robert Niles of www.ThemeParkInsider.com , this is becoming a common occurrence in theme parks across the nation. According to Niles, “parks are adding “plus-sized” seats to roller coasters, “test” seats at the beginning of ride queues, and in some cases, rebuilding ride systems entirely.”

Isn’t this a shame? 30% of the American population is clinically obese and 65% are overweight. This translates into 90 million Americans clinically obese and 195 million overweight.

These numbers are staggering. If you have been thinking about starting a weight management or exercise program it’s time to get off the fence and start… today!

If you don’t know where to begin, I can help clear the confusion and set you down a straight line path towards health and fitness. I have developed proven methods that guarantee your success.

Have a wonderful day,
