DAY 12

Some-one asked me the other day, did I feel bad eating pork from pigs that Meg's parents reared.  They suggested to me that it was cruel, yet they were not a vegetarian. This person was obviously incredibly stupid, but i proceeded to explain to them that I'd much rather eat meat that has come from here....































rather than here...............


 “Food, Inc.,” is an informative activist documentary about the big business of feeding or, more to the political point, force-feeding, Americans all the junk that multinational corporate money can buy.

If you unsure what Intermittent fasting is read this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermittent_fasting.

I'm currently following Martin Berkhan of Leangains.com approach. This guy is super smart and you only have to look at his testimonials to realise he knows what he's talking about! http://www.leangains.com/2011/01/client-update.html

How does Leangains differentiate itself from some other intermittent fasting based diets? Here's a brief primer.
An  in-depth coverage of Martin's approach, and the benefits of intermittent fasting, can be read about here.

A much shorter summary can be found here.
