Hanging on for Dear Life
This summer in Vegas, I went to the top of the Stratosphere.
You know, the tall needle that you see on CSI…900 feet above
the street.
And I dangled off the side of the building on the X-Scream,
what feels like a rocket slide shooting you out into mid-air.
And then it goes up - and - down - and up - and
downrealfast.
I was strapped in so tight I couldn’t get out even
if I wanted to (and that’s the way I like it on those things),
but I still held on tight…a literal white-knuckler.
That’s about what it felt like 20 years ago. No, not when I
got married (that was in June).
But in October of ‘87 we had “Black Monday”, where the stock
market took a nose-dive. Single biggest one-day loss ever
(as I recall).
Everyone was panicking…but as bad as it was, it was simply
a ‘market correction’. What goes up must come down.
The good news is it doesn’t have to come all the way down,
but in nature, there’s no such thing as a straight line.
And overall, the market was up 5% for the year, even after
falling 20% in October.
I’m no economist, but I am an observer of nature…especially
human nature. We get excited when things go the right way,
and discouraged when things go the wrong way.
That’s why the call it yo-yo dieting. Not so much because of
how the weight fluctuates…but how your Mood fluctuates.
And that’s why ‘dieting’ can be so discouraging…lose a pound
–great. Gain a pound–what’s the use?
There’s an easier way to get back in shape, and not lose your
Mind in the process. How to negotiate the bumps in the road
that will come no matter what.
It respects YOUR Nature, and the Nature of the Process of losing
weight and/or getting healthy again.
I give you the Inside Scoop in the Caveman Cuisine QuickStart
Guide. What to look at, what to ignore, what to count, what
to measure…how to stay on the Path and reach your goal
without sidetracking yourself.
Here’s what one of my Cave-persons had to say:
“Dr. V,
Just wanted to let you know that I love
the whey powder and fish oil, and I love
the eating plan. I’ve lost 5 pounds in 10 days.
I also wanted to compliment you on your Caveman
Concentration essay, which I found to be very
inspiring and timely for me. Thanks for addressing
the whole person — mind body and spirit, not
just the body as most people do.”
5 pounds in 10 days is amazing–congrats!

If you hold on too tight you won’t enjoy the ride. If you
hang too loose, you might end up on the sidewalk. Let me
help you find that balance so you don’t miss out on the fun of
getting your Ideal Body back.
Live like You Mean it…
Dr. Vince
