I Hate Diets......

I'm in the process of starting a diet .......

I took some steps ...like lowering my calorie intake & increasing my activity level.....I'm not consistent enough so I just dance & burn the calories using my favourite music...Well I'm TRYING.....

& then I stumble upon this ....ummmm....tempting pic of this sweets me3alem in Syria...

& ahem did I mention that I looooooove Syrian sweets...

& those delesh looking maa'mools in the pic...just look yummy...

Well I guess I can satisfy my sweet tooth through the pics......

Sobhan Allah yesterday I was browsing through one of my favourite sites

"بيت الشفاء"

& I found a broadcast by Mariam Nour, I consider Mariam one of the most influential women I have ever heard.masha Allah she has guts & she has passion for what she does.

It was a TV interview with "Orbit" on this show

She mentioned John Robbins "A Diet for A New America" & alhamdu Lelah I found the whole video on You tube.

The videos are very iformative & got me thinking about my own diet & of course my family's diet as well.Frankly speaking I've been doing a very lousy job.

I'll be posting the videos here ....& hopefully I'll start building a new menue for my family based around grains & veggies.

In sha Allah....
