			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color:#000000;"><a href="http://healthhabits.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/trust-me-im-a-doctor.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3924" title="trust me, i'm a doctor" src="http://healthhabits.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/trust-me-im-a-doctor.jpg" alt="trust me, i'm a doctor" width="400" height="400" /></a><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">For decades, we have listened to the nation&#8217;s <a title="health" href="http://www.healthhabits.ca/">health</a> experts tell us:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color:#000000;"> what to eat, </span></li>
<li><span style="color:#000000;">what not to eat,</span></li>
<li><span style="color:#000000;">how much to eat,</span></li>
<li><span style="color:#000000;">how much exercise we need,</span></li>
<li><span style="color:#000000;">what type of exercise we need&#8230;.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">And, after all of that advice, we have become a <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">nation</span> world afflicted with runaway obesity, diabetes, heart disease, liver disease, cancer, etc&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">And yet, when we want to improve our health or reduce our waistlines, we still turn to the <strong><em>experts</em></strong>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Why?</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Everyday I meet people who are trying to <em>get into shape</em>. For years, they have been trying to follow the rules laid down by the experts. </span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color:#000000;">They followed the food pyramid</span></li>
<li><span style="color:#000000;">They cut the fat out of their diets</span></li>
<li><span style="color:#000000;">They did their 20 minutes of <em>fat-burning</em> cardio</span></li>
<li><span style="color:#000000;">They choked down their egg white omelettes</span></li>
<li><span style="color:#000000;">They ate their fiber</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">And they watched their backsides get wider and their blood pressure rise higher and higher.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">It&#8217;s time for a change.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">The status quo is broken.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">The top-down approach doesn&#8217;t work. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">But with the technology available today, we don&#8217;t need to rely solely on that <em>expert advice</em> from up above.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">We can connect those people who are desperate to transform their bodies with those people willing to help.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">We can create a tribe of people devoted to health, <a title="fitness" href="http://www.healthhabits.ca/">fitness</a> and each other.<br />
