Birmingham Cardiac Diet

OK! There is BILLIONS of Diet schemes and tricks these days but this one I do believe might be the one that just may work.

Its called the Birmingham Cardiac Diet.
Its a 3 Day Chemical Breakdown Diet that doesn't cause too much stress on your body like most diets do. Now a cardiac diet is easy to follow but will require some pre-planning , and it is the diet cardiac patients follow in the Birmingham Alabama hospital cardiac diet unit....so its not just another "PLAN".

I know of a few of my friends that went on this diet plan and has seen fast results, so I deiced to share it with you! In a few weeks when I get a chance to slow down some I will train a few family members on this plan. Hey maybe I might do it for a week to loose the 10 lbs, lol, but i think this is a wonderful experience for some of the people that's struggling with weight issues. If that's the case and u just need someone to talk to or need any other options feel free to email me @ westbankarike07@yahoo.com.
Here is the link to read more about the Birmingham Cardiac Diet and the menu. If it isn't enough try just googling the "Birmingham Cardiac Diet".

Why Black?

So tired of people asking me why I wear all black all the time. So I will just make the explanation here in plain english, lol.

So its like this...americans use the color black to convey elegance, sophistication, sexxxyness, or perhaps a touch of mystery. For the slow......It's mysterious by providing a sense of potential and possibility. Now in most Western countries, and in peoples mind, the color black is the color of mourning. Among some young people, black is often seen as a color of rebellion. Too bad I am not young or rebellious, lol. But, Black is both positive and negative which explains my personality to a tea!

After doing a little research, In early Westerns times the good guy wore white while the bad guy wore black. But later in the century's on........good guys wore black to lend an air of mystery to themselves. Considered the negation of color, black is conservative, goes well with almost any color except the very dark. So I wouldn't wear brown and black together. AT ALL! It also has conflicting connotations. It can be serious and conventional.

As I got more mature I realized that graphic tees and all that was a little last season for me so I had to take another route since black is the absence of color, and In clothing, black is visually slimming. As I read on I learned that black is the most misunderstood color, that symbolizes death in some cultures. Native Americans thought black was good because it was the color of soil, which gives life. Westbank Arike' thinks its a trend. Saturday's color is black........ but Websters Dictionary says that black is not a color, strictly speaking. It is the absence of all color. So this is a powerful debate.

People follow trends.......now watch how I become a tReNdSeTtEr!

Enough is Enough

OMG! BEEN SO LONG SINCE I BEEN ON HERE. I JUST BEEN REALLY BUSY, BUT I HAD TO TAKE TO TIME TO VENT AND THIS IS MY HAVEN FOR THAT.

I WON'T TELL MY REAL AGE BUT I AM OLD ENOUGH TO REALIZE THAT "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH". I MEAN BOUNCE IS COOL AND I AINT SAYIN THAT I AM QUITTIN 100% BUT I KNOW THAT IT COMES A TIME WHEN U GOTTA LET IT GO. I MEAN WHAT IMMA LOOK LIKE 30 YEARS OLD TALKIN BOUT "WHO RUN THIS BITCH"! NO DISRESPECT TO OTHERS BUT THATS NOT WASSUP TO ME. YES IT PAYS THE BILLS BUT MAN.....WHATS GONNA HAPPEN AFTER? WHEN THE CLUBS BURN, YOU LOOSE YOUR VOICE, NO MO GIGS, NO HIT SONG, AND WHEN BOUNCE FADE? WHATS GONNA HAPPEN AFTER? WHATS NEXT?

NOW DONT GET ME WRONG I GO OUT FROM TIME TO TIME AND WHEN I HAVE TOO BUT I PUT ALL THAT ON THE BACK BURNER AND STARTED TO FOCUS ON ME AND LIFE....WHICH THAT'S ALL THAT MATTER TO ME. I ALSO MADE TIME FOR MY FAMILY AND MY ELITE CIRCLE OF FRIENDS WHO I TALK TO DAILY AND OUR RELATIONSHIPS HAVE GOTTEN BETTER.

SOME JUST CANT UNDERSTAND WHY I MADE A CHANGE.....WELL ITS SIMPLE...I DEPEND ON ME. I CANT DEPEND ON A CLUB TO PAY ME. NEVER DID REALLY.
