My One Success and a Book

I believe the one and only good thing I'm doing for my health is to eat between 12 and 5. Even if I mess this up a little and eat between an eight hour frame, it's still considered a daily fast, going by the message in the video I posted previously.

As far as the dress wearing is going, not too well. However, I think I know the reason, and I found it in words here. I'm not happy with the styles and colors. Hey, try to buy anything besides black in my size. It's possible, but not easy. Plus, I have to like the style and it has to meet my standards of modesty. When you're my size, modesty is more of a courtesy to the onlookers. It's certainly not an enticing view. Ahem.

I'm on a quest to find more dresses to my liking so that I don't fall guilty of what the above blog link says will ultimately happen: give up dresses because I feel drab in them.

Here is a book I've started:  I purchased mine at amazon, link below -

The China Study by T. Colin Campbell, Phd and Thomas M. Campbell II, MD

So far, I think it's a great book. It's everything and more that I've heard about it. I like it, too, because it's written by a good ol' down-home, uppity professional know-it-all kinda guy. :-) What I mean is, the (main) author is intelligent, but humble, and from my own country too. I thought I'd have to struggle with Chinese anecdotes and locations that I wouldn't understand, but this author speaks of raising cows and gardens and being in a family when he was a young boy in Virginia. I understand that. He has a wife of 43 years at the time of the book with a family of five children. I love that about him. He is close to his wife who is the reason this book got written, he acknowledges. It just keeps getting better. He has courage, yes, courage - something many prominent men lack. He thinks on his own two feet, not leaning on what others may say of him if he reports something that is different. Thank God, and I do mean "thank God", for men like this. I'm going to enjoy reading this book and reporting here what I read. I do have to keep a dictionary handy to look up words like, "obviate".
