Get a trash bag and raid the refrigerator and cabinets


One of the first general orders for all Jim Brown Boot Campers is to:

Go through both their refrigerator and all their cupboards and make sure they have a large plastic trash bag in hand.

I have them start filling that bag of theirs with all sugared and diet colas. They’ve GOT to go.

Studies go back and forth as to which one of these toxins is the worst for you, sugared or diet, but it’s a real jump ball.

In a 12oz can of sugared soda, there’s on the order of eight teaspoons of sugar...EIGHT.

And to make matters worse, virtually all sugared sodas use High Fructose Corn Syrup.

You hear a lot about High Fructose Corn Syrup, but what’s so bad about it?

Here’s what:

There’s dozens of studies, the most famous of which used a couple dozen Gorillas.

For 90 days they put them all on an extremely high fat diet, weighing in before and after...There was some weigh gain with Group one, but nothing anywhere near outrageous. They attributed this to their overall high metabolisms and their tendency toward active movement.

There were a dozen other Gorillas in an identical study, Group two, with just one variation. In addition to the identical fatty diet of Group one, Group two, was given water flavored with High Fructose Corn Syrup.

The second group on average gained nearly 35% of their original body weight.

This in only 90 days.

They still don’t know why. There’s all kids of theories, BUT they do know for weight gain, that High Fructose Corn Syrup is like pouring gasoline on a roaring fire.

Diet soda’s are a whole other ball game, but trust me, every bit as bad for you.

IT’S ALL GOTTA GO!

That’s why I put a Soda Stream Machine in every Boot Camp Start Up Kit.

It saves a nice piece of change, if you add it all up, works out to about a nickel a quart.

I myself don’t add anything to my Soda Stream soda and that works just fine for me. But a lot of people will add a tablespoon of real fruit juice per bottle, not from a concentrate, the real deal.

Anytime you see “From a Concentrate” on any juice drink, move on. There’re always sweetened and guess what, it’s always with High Fructose Corn Syrup.

Campers are allowed to just take an orange or any fruit they want, squeeze it and collect the drippings, just adding a table spoon to their soda, making at least four quarts at a time, just to always have them on hand.

They’re under orders here:

“You will drink a minimum three quart bottles a day of Soda Stream soda a day, every day.”

I have them do themselves a favor and cut it off by no later than 7:00 PM.

That way they’re not up at 2:00 AM to pee.

 Being Overweight can lead to Diabetes… At this point in the good ole USA, 52% of the general population is either Pre-Diabetic, or Diabetic...52%!! If you’re chronically 30lbs overweight that number jumps up to 83%. You can Google it; it’ll jump right out at you. It’s jabbing yourself with a needle 4x a day, every day - then you lose some toes, then a foot. It’s not a pretty situation, but that’s how it works. You can side step all that AND if you ARE on insulin, get off. It would be a good plan to look into your options. https://jimbrownbootcamp.org/
 It Feels Great! You know, I haven’t always been such a boy scout.   I was in business all my life, not running one (god no); I’d bring in people to do the day to day once I put everything in place.   My thing was to come up with an idea, get if off the ground, then bring in the “mechanics” to take it from there, then on to the next. Tough sledding out there, true dog eat dog. These days, I help people who are going through exactly what I did with weight issues. Feels good… Not even close! It Feels GREAT! https://jimbrownbootcamp.org/

An Epidemic of Childhood Diabetes

Recently the Boot Camp used Facebook advertising and promptly found ourselves up to our ears in responses. It’s taken our support team weeks to get out from under and continues to be a work in progress. We’ve suspended all Facebook advertising until we’re caught up and are in the process of expanding staff to deal with the influx. We had not anticipated such a vast response, although this should not have been any big surprise. Today, in the Good Ole USA, the Overweight Capital of the World, 51% of the general population is either Pre-Diabetic or Diabetic - 51%! If you break it down a bit further and zero in on people who are chronically 30 lbs. overweight or beyond, that number jumps to 84%. People in that spot may never get a Diabetes diagnosis, BUT Las Vegas says NO. When I was a college boy, Mickey D’s was just starting out and had no imitators. You could buy a hamburger for 13 cents and a cheeseburger for 15 cents and the National Diabetes rate was 11%. F...
