I admit it I like Howard Stern

I know a lot of people do not like this guy, I know I did not for years. My best friend loved the guy but I could never get into him. But my wife gave me a Sirius Radio last year so I could listen to http://www.radiomargaritaville.com/!!!!! and yes I did listen a lot. One day as I was scanning the radio I came across Howard Stern. I listened in small doses and found out that I really like what he programs. Some of the stuff he does is over the top but for the most part it is just Great Radio.
He has some people he calls the Wack Pack and they are funny as hell. People can say he takes advantage of them. If you listen to the show you will know that he takes care of the Wack Packers.
He had http://www.paulmccartney.com/ on the other day. I have never been a fan of his really I always thought he was a pom pas ass. I had never met him it just seemed that the media portrayed him as thinking he was better then everyone else. But after the Howard interview with him I found that I liked the guy. He almost seemed like a guy you could to a bar with and have a beer.. Howard did that in 30 minutes. It was great and he does that kind of thing with everyone he interviews.. Unlike the the main stream media he asks the hard questions and he will keep pressing. Sure he asks a lot of weird questions but I think that it opens the guests up.

I would say give Howard a shot. He turned me around. Now I listen everyday and I have to listen to all his best of stuff when he is gone.

The Weight loss Saga day 4

       This is my 4th day without caffine. The first 2 days were bad, I had a serious headache but now I feel just fine. I guess the Mega Man Multi-Vitamen I am taking is helping with that so that is good. Plus my energy level has been great, I was afraid that I would suffer fatigue when I gave up coffee. But that is not the case..

I weighed in yesterday and was down 4 pounds since Saturday, I take that as a small victory. I know there is lots more to do but for now I will take it.
In my last editon of the saga, I told you I was using the GNC Total Body Cleansing system. I am not really sure how well it is working.. I have not noticed much difference in the restroom except for the color of my urine.  But I will say that being on the product and thinking that it is working has helped me eat better all week..  I have made good choices for the most part and have been watching the portions. So I consider that a good side of the product.


I have been pretty this week so I have not hit the gym. That is the goal for next week, I will also start taking  Super Foods Supreme, I have heard good things about that product and will be exited to give it a shot..

Tune in Thursday for my Blog post on Howard Stern

The First day of the Weight Lose Saga

So yesterday I started the quest to lose some weight and try to get  healthy!! 

I decided to try the GNC Total Body Cleansing Program. Maybe a little extreme but I had to try something. Everything else I have tried has failed, so I figured why not go for the gusto. 

First off there are a lot of pills involved in doing this program and I am not a big pill taker. But I am still doing it anyways.

Second you really need to prepare and shop for this.  I am not following the menu as close as I should but I have been eating a lot better and not as much so that is a good thing

Third I have been drinking a ton of water.. I have been going to the restroom quite a bit. So I am thinking the Liver and Kidney cleaning is going good..  The other area's to be cleansed have not really kicked in yet from the results in restroom.  I will just leave it at that.

I am suffering from a major headache today. It has been 2 days without coffee and I am sure that is what is causing it. Still it really sucks but I will press on because that is what I have to do.

That is today's update on the weight loss saga

My Thoughts on the events of the Day

So  now George Bush is gone and back in Texas, and Barack Obama is now in the White House.  I know things are not going to happen over night, but I have faith in President Obama. I think he has new fresh ideas. We as a country need to realize that he cannot do it by himself, he needs us to help him out. He can put out all the idea's but WE have be behind him and support him.

One thing I really wonder about.  If Hillary Clinton had been elected would the turn out have been as big? I know President Obama became the first African American President and he had many people there to see history. When we get the first woman President will the people come in mass to see hear sworn in the same way?
That was just something that crossed my mind today.

I am excited to see what President Obama can do, No man in the history of this country has ever had this much pressure on him. I must say I do not envy him one bit, everything he does is going to be put under a microscope. Some people are going to love him and some are going to hate him. Some people are going to love his idea's and some are going to hate them. I just hope that he can cross the aisle and get everyone to work together.
