When I run in the afternoon I can't sleep. Great you still have nights like this. Seems like your days need more hours.<BR/>Let's see what happens with the Natto. Still it sounds like you are very focused and certainly will be making many more changes. At the end we won't know what really made the trick as I'm convinced you will loose that extra weight!Hildahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11844841928699319816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34739089.post-1168577877917440762007-01-12T13:57:00.000+09:002007-01-12T13:57:00.000+09:00Coming from someone that loves all things soy (in ...Coming from someone that loves all things soy (in fact, I have a major weakness for asian food in general), I don't think the Australian public is ready for Natto without a little more culinary education. Scott, it doesn't really matter, because if you enjoy it, then I reckon you eat it!<BR/><BR/>I think that Tesso has the right of it though; a cup of soy jelly would be a refreshing change as PM......

Yet, the mind having the power that it does will work to make whatever you beleive become true in reality.<BR/><BR/>So I'm yelling everyday in the tone of Martin Luther King, "I BELIEVE IN NATTO!"

At least there is some physiological rationality to it. Another problem though is that as individuals we are usually never a proper controlled trial that can attribute efficiacy to the natto (or other silver bullet). Let's say you eat the natto morning, noon, and night to try and lose weight. This will indicate that you are so motivated about weight loss that you will adjust your diet in other ways as well (reduced carbs? less oil? fewer sweets?). And you are also getting in some extra miles of marathon training. So then when the weight loss comes, which was it? The natto, the other diet changes, or the running?<BR/>I'm not saying the natto won't work or that you shouldn't try it, just that when you shed your 4 kg, as I am sure you will, we need to be careful about interpreting how you achieved it. It is nearly always a combination of things.Stephen Laceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10985763302279648129noreply@blogger.com
