The library's and book shops are full of them. Diet Books if you are a celebrity down on work you either lose weight and do an exercise Video, or write a diet book about how you lost the pounds the more outlandish the better.
There are people out there with little medical knowledge dreaming up new diets at this moment.
How about eat anything you dam well like and still loose weight diet,
We must be a suckers to even read all this Guff
When I cure my diabetes though, be sure to watch out for my 10 week postal course with a money back guarantee, Just think of all the money you will save on Doctors visits.

This is the time of year when women are bombarded with celebrity advice on what they could and should be eating.
But the fad for only the very healthiest food could be putting many dieters at risk of severely damaging their physical and mental health, scientists have warned.
Experts are reporting a rise in a mental illness called orthorexia nervosa.
Nutritionists highlight elebrity fads such as the blood group diet, which is favoured by Cheryl Cole (right) and the Maple Syrup detox diet, used by Beyonce (left)
Those who develop the disorder are worrying so much about the purity of what they eat that they are denying themselves entire food groups.
Nutritionists highlight celebrity fads such as the blood group diet, which is favoured by Cheryl Cole, and the Maple Syrup detox diet, used by Beyonce and Naomi Campbell.
Orthorexia tends to affect middle-class women in their 30s.
While those with anorexia restrict the quantity of what they eat, those with orthorexia are obsessed with quality and can end up eliminating items such as salt, sugar, caffeine, alcohol, wheat, gluten, yeast, soya and dairy products from their diet entirely.
Foods that may contain artificial additives such as MSG or pesticide residues are also rejected.
Adherence to such rigid rules can also mean those with the condition will refuse to eat out at restaurants or at friends’ homes, putting a strain on relationships.
Cutting out entire food groups is likely to lead to serious illness, warn nutritionists – but they point out how an ‘onslaught’ of advice from celebrities, particularly in the New Year, frightens women into going down the path to orthorexia.
Lucy Jones of the British Dietetic Association said: ‘Every day there are new pieces of advice on how to eat healthier.
‘Orthorexia is most in line with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. The aim may not to be thin – it’s about the quality of food.’ She said ‘no food should be written off completely’ and it was OK to eat an ‘occasional piece of crap food’.
Supporters of the blood group diet claim that those with different blood groups break down food in different ways and should eat different foods.
Those on the maple syrup diet consume little else but sugary water. This has none of the protein, fibre, vitamins and minerals needed to remain healthy.
Psychologist Anjula Mutanda said the pride with which those with orthorexic tendencies speak about their diets was worrying. She said: ‘Anorexic people are secretive whereas orthorexics can become superior – evangelical almost.
‘What we are bombarded with is the idea of good and bad food. People need an education in normal eating.’

It seems like everyone is appointing themselves
Also the share holders may want a say in things and if you are acting head chef we could use some suggestions for a diabetic menu we can use to promote this project just a suggestion as our CEO is still on his golfing vacations setting up deals and signing contracts!
This treasurer head chef idea sounds like a conflict of interest to me.
Oh well we will have to discuss it at the next board meeting.
i am off to the club for a few sets of tennis and a sauna:-))
Keep up the good work
I see the pressures and stress are already having an effect on you.
I am a certified Primordial Sound Meditation instructor and i think you would benefit immensely from my seminar.Sure helped my golf game.
I want you to chant "om mani padme hum" at least ten times each day.
Peace

Why not send her on one of your Chill seminars. and the attitude management course
We don;t want all our staff getting the union aroused, This one seems more argumentative than our last nameless Treasurer who had to jump ship( so to speak).
.
Some of that going to school with ole Bernie seems to have rubbed off,
Perhaps we could offer her a franchise arrangement for a branch in Arkansas or somewhere
This is where your silicone like skill of arbitration will come in to play
If you need any assistance please feel free to call on my support
I will be willing to adjudicate on any disputes than may arise
I can act as an impartial ombudsman But as the major shareholder there may be some who feel this would be a conflict of interest
Maybe Lesa in N/Y can contact our old Treasure ...er for some good advise
It Could be described as a Written form of Aspergers syndrome.
People from N/Y are prone to this due to such a hectic lifestyle,
Chesty's Yoga and breathing techniques
are great for it ( just don't hold your breath too long)
Most chefs eventually become unhinged due to the pressure in the kitchen, as the saying goes if you can;t stand the heat get out of the kitchen
This is why Chesty's meditation School is full of chefs chilling out
and learn the company song that unicorn is composing. something along the lines of " YOU CAN EAT ANYTHING YOU WANT AT MO'S FISH RESTAURANT"
unicorn can juggle fruit while dressed as a clown signing our company song
and as we will be running a STOP SMOKING COURSE we could get the mayor to open it
DIABETIC GARDEN OF EAT'N
Lesa - a dancing carrot is perfect, I cannot juggle fruit because I will be juggling food in the kitchen. Anyway, my varicose veins would look ugly.
