Fight Fat After Forty
by Pamela Peeke, M.D., M.P.H.
“It’s a Scientific Fact: Stress Makes You Fat.”
In February of this year, I quit smoking. I’ve stuck with it, and I’ve been smoke free for seven months now. I did that by using Paul McKenna’s Stop Smoking Meditation. I started working out, and I kept working out so I didn’t gain any weight.
However, the problem is that I couldn’t seem to lose any weight either. After doing various workouts for the last seven months, I still haven’t lost any weight. What’s worse is all of the cravings I had and being hungry all of the time. I thought this was the result of quitting smoking, and it should be temporary. It wasn’t though. I stayed hungry all of the time, and I couldn’t understand why.
After reading this book though, it’s very clear to me. If you’re a woman over 40 who is struggling to lose weight and can’t, or you’re having trouble with your hormones, then this book is definitely for you. It will help you get back on track by determining your stress profile and then eating, as well as exercising, accordingly.
To get you back on track, Dr. Peete employs a three pronged approach. First, you learn the technique of regrouping. This helps you determine when you are most stressed and then helps you decide what you will do during these times to reduce, and ultimately, eliminate negative stress.
Next, you learn how to use nutrition and eat not only the right things but at the right times. By avoiding late night eating and also by eating more frequently, you get your appetite under control and stop eating purely because you’re stressed.
Finally, you learn the easiest and most important component of all: exercise. If ever there were a magic pill to solve your stress fat, as well as help you feel better, look better, and get rid of fat for good, then this is it. It’s really that simple. Dr. Peete shows you how to do it right. You get the most return for your effort from your exercise, and you get fit, and get rid of fat for good.
Stop feeling like you are going crazy. That’s exactly how I felt, and this book was a lifesaver. If you’re ready to get fit, get rid of the fat, and look and feel younger, this book is definitely for you.

A surefire way to debunk atheism?
It’s hard not to laugh when you read some of the things that atheists say. Nothing created something. Doesn’t that violate one of the laws of thermodynamics or something? LOL
Anyway, I encourage you to read this article. It’s really quite funny. It also makes you feel sad for atheists because it really makes them look stupid!
Enjoy it.

I’m always amazed at how irrelevant most of what we learn in school really is. Schools don’t teach things like economics, things could help all of us avoid the kind of financial disasters so many are currently facing because of mistakes they made because of ignorance or bad choices.
When I first came across this book in the library, I almost didn’t get it. There are so many liberal books on economics and money management that are light on facts and lack techniques for actually helping you solve your financial problems.
This book definitely turned out to be different, and I’m so glad I read it. It was definitely an eye opener.
What this book does, from a Biblical perspective, is explain, in depth, the current financial situation the the United States and what you can do to protect yourself.
What I really liked about this book is that it’s written in plain English. Bates makes it very easy to understand exactly what is happening within the American economy, as well as how the government is contributing to the problem. He shows what we should actually be doing to correct the problems.
What I didn’t like about it is that he doesn’t really give you any kind of plan for how to deal with the situation. He does offer a list of things you can do to protect yourself, but there’s really no explanation here.
That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t read this book though. This book is very relevant to what is actually happening today and is an excellent primer for educating yourself on economics.
Lest you think that it’s too “Christian,” or too religious to possibly provide the real facts and figures behind what’s really happening, the author, Dr. Larry Bates, really doesn’t spend a lot of time exploring the issues from a Christian perspective.
Although Bates is a Christian, he was also a state legislator from Tennessee, as well as a banker. His background makes him uniquely qualified to write on the topic, and because he really understands the issues, he does a really good job of explaining the issues in a way that anyone can understand.
Regardless of your religious persuasion, or lack of one, this is definitely a book that you will want to read. It will help you more clearly understand what is really happening in the American economy and how you can protect yourself. Not to be missed.
The New Economic Disorder, by Dr. Larry Bates, is available on Amazon.
