Download or read book Fabulous Jelly Use Your Brain to Lose Weight written by Susannah Healy and published by Mercier Press Ltd. This book was released on 2013-09-06 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all know what we should be eating and diet gurus abound, yet over 40% of the population is still overweight. Why? Because most of us find it so damn difficult to get 'in the zone' long enough to stick to a new eating plan that we really couldn't be bothered. In 'Fabulous Jelly' author and psychologist Susannah Healy describes the triumphs and failures of her own weight loss (including an absolute fortune spent on re-joining weight loss clubs), before she learned to use her own professional experience to design a plan that worked for her. Now two stone lighter, Susannah shares her secrets about how to get your brain to work with and not against you in weight loss, using research from neuroscience and cognitive and behavioural psychology. Susannah shares her eating plan that will get you motivated – and provide results. This book is not a life-long eating plan, but it will kick-start your weight loss, give you the motivation to keep going and stop all the rubbish clichés about 'completely new you' that are sabotaging your weight-loss goals. It's a fact: frozen veg are the new avocado!

Download or read book Children of the Sun written by Maxim Gorky and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2013-04-30 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I didn't read your books. I licked them, I rubbed them all over my naked body and licked them. Protasov, detached and idealistic, wants only to immerse himself in chemical experiments to perfect mankind. He's more or less oblivious to the voracious advances of the half-crazed widow Melaniya and his best friend's unrelenting pursuit of his wife, let alone the cholera epidemic and the starving mob at his gates. While Nanny fusses round, Protasov's admiring circle, variously skeptical, romantic and lovesick, spar over culture and the cosmos. Only Liza, neurotic and patronized, feels the suffering of the peasantry and senses that their own privileged world is in jeopardy. Gone? They're everywhere. Have you heard about the riots? The starvation and the flagrant disregard of authority. This disregard is building walls and barriers between us all. And they are massing. The crowds of angry people. And the hate... the hate between us all... kills everything. Written during the abortive Russian Revolution of 1905, Maxim Gorky's darkly comic Children of the Sun depicts the new middle-class, foolish perhaps but likeable, as they flounder around, philosophizing, yearning, or scuttling between test tubes, blind to their impending annihilation. This is Andrew Upton's fourth English version of a play for the National by one of the great Russian masters, including his acclaimed adaptation of Gorky's Philistines.

And he has outlasted many of his competitors, still leading them home in his late fifties after having notched up over 2000 wins.

He has also had a few beers, a bit of fun and lots of laughs, enjoying life and loving racing. Colourful - including green hair on occasions - and sometimes outlandish, Noel has stood out for his singular riding style, his optimism, commitment, sense of humour and straight-shooting sincerity. Racing is a game of wins and losses, highs and lows, and in this book, Noel takes us on the rollercoaster, from growing up in a racing family and apprenticeship days in a wild and scary Singapore, the rides and races of the NZ and Australian racing calendars, and the trials, tribulations and triumphs of staying at the top. Noel gives us the goods on the horses, owners, trainers, jockeys, races and officials, friends and family - the emotions, experiences, anecdotes and accolades of a long and successful career.
