The First Thing you thing of when you wake…eh, trying to wake up! is that your Alarm is EVIL. Lets look at this, It seems though that you don’t praise your Alarm clock when it wakes you normally but the moment that you reset it, and you know it is very important day tomorrow! The Alarm Clock Knows too! Because what happens? Your Alarm does not go OFF! Better yet, it makes you think that your dumb, your very own alarm like to flip from AM to PM.

Any Hands here? or I am just delusional.
You softly “Rest your Eyes”, and in your heart, you know you will wake within Five minutes. 45 minutes flies by and your like….*Oh snot, fling out of bed, jump and fly into the shower, do the 7 second Nascar Rinse and Jump out and……..
So the Morning Blahs…goes on! Here are tips for Fighting the Morning Blahs!:
- Plan your time, make a Plan to sleep, eat, dream, work, play, laugh, grow etc…
- Go to bed early!
- Set up multiple Alarms in 5 minute intervals like 3-4 of them
- Don’t drink fluids in evenings, so you don’t have to pee in the middle of the night
- Exercise before going to bed
- NO TV in the bedroom after dinner! if its on use will watch it!
- Drink Water or Juice to *wake up the brain*
- Put the Alarm clocks away from the bed! Across the room!

May 12, 2008
Here fatty fatty,
I am a Geek, thats Mr. Geek to you! Mr. Geek is about 300 pounds around a month ago! Mr. Geek is now around 285!
So, the topic is losing weight. And No I am not tell you how to slim down, the magic DIEt or do the purfect weight lose program. What I doing is telling you how I am losing weight. You must wonder why or how this topic relates to my Edublog? I am a computer guy, the fat computer instructor, the programmer, and a digital chef of Art. There are many other thing that I am , face it, I am ME. and to relate that, you are YOU! Food is important, it is part of learning, have you heard the term “Feed the Mind” yes, I know just learning a lot of stuff but really, it means that the food you eat is the fuel for learning! In comparison, what you eat is how you would learn.
How about losing those pounds? Well, you can’t just lose them, it is not like you clear the buffer and poof the memory is gone. Losing weight is math! here are the variables ax=Intake, qw=What rate of burning the intake, ct=How much intake burned, sg=End Result. ml=Your Body
So CALC this: (ax*qw)-ct=sq=sq-ml
Sum this up……If you burn more then your intake, you WILL Start losing weight
Well, Mr. Geek thats just fine and dandy but how do I keep myself from eating more than I can burn? Its your Will! Have faith that you will lose weight! Here are some Tips for losing weight, It was for me
1. Plan: Know what, where, and how much your going to eat!
a. Calendar style
b. Do Research- what is good/bad for your body
c. Eat many times a day in small chunks
d. Make a Goal, A Goal that you can achieve
2. Cut the Pop: Your Fabby Gut is from your sugar intake!
a. You can drink teas
b. Flavor water
3. Exercise: How much? I hiked a good hour everyday
4. Small: It’s proven that you’ll eat less from a small source then more then a large Source
a. Cut half or quarter size of your intake
5. Water: Drink Twice or triple amount of your current water intake (Cold)
6. Fast Food: you can cut fast food, not really needed, just make smart choices
7. Attitude: Important, “I am losing weight because I want to, not because I have too!”
What ever you do don’t shake it cause you haven’t tried it! This is a choice for myself and I need to give it some time. Six days ain’t going to work, try 3 weeks. Don’t force yourself! Make A Change through a challenge, if you succeed, reward yourself with knowing your weight lost, not with more food! I wish you the best in A Geek Life: Lose those pounds!
