You must bear with me - as it's going to be a long job putting all this into a printable table format. .. starting 9th June 2000. Also, if you take this list and find it useful, please be kind enough to send your money-order payable to OFICSERV - (but please DO NOT put the word OFICSERV on the envelope or it will be returned to you courtesy of Canada Post!) c/o Simpson at PO Box 1, Site 23, Eden Mills, Ontario. NOB 1PO. Canada. I leave it to you, however helpful you find this information and support, to reimburse me for my time (many hours typing) and trouble putting this on line and I thank you for your consideration. It pleases me immensely to be of help to a fellow "counter".

When counting calories, do not think for one moment this will permit you to avoid sensible eating. For example, a piece of chocolate may have the same calories as a piece of fish (or whatever) but will not have the many essential minerals and protein you require. You will need to follow a proper food guide. You must not eat prepared foods or highly processed foods. Many of the nutrients which you require for mental and physical wellbeing are cooked and strained out of highly processed and pre-prepared foods. If you have a garden, try to grow your own fresh vegetables etc.
Your body also needs regular exercise: weight-lifting and resistance, moderate cardio-vascular training etc. Obviously, the system has been designed over millions of years to require a certain amount of movement and opposition. If you don't care for your body, the bones and muscles will deteriorate, resulting in sagging and eventual breaking.
