Lie There and Lose Weight (eBook, ePUB)

For over a year John Ordover documented his struggle to lose weight, in the process creating a battlefield journal of the physical and emotional challenges he faced and how he worked past them. Here Ordover collects his weekly weight reports and adds wry observations on what he was doing and feeling, ways he coped with both setbacks and success, and a sharp push-back against society's unkind treatment of those with a weight problem. In his own illuminating and irreverent style, Ordover lays out how determination, distraction and a sense of humor helped him cope with dieting's unavoidable irritations and walk past constant temptation to recover his health. To get there, he had to see past what "everyone knows" about losing weight-but is dead wrong, figure out what worked for him, and cut through the biggest myth of all: that weight loss requires hours at the gym or miles on the track. Charming and compelling, insightful and entertaining, Ordover's story of losing weight and keeping it off is very much his own, yet offers guidance and support to anyone facing the same life-or-death challenge. "Lie There and Lose Weight arrived this morning; I read most of it then and there. It's charming, intelligent, personal and you might pick up a few pointers in the read. I like best of all that it's Ordover's story, no one else's, and no lectures! In a world of endless weight-loss books it's nice to find one that speaks a personal truth and perhaps there may be some truth in it for me... and you too." - CCH Pounder "Insightful, endearing and surprisingly funny...." - The Brooklyn Daily Eagle "A slender volume that will definitely make your volume slender." - New York Times best-selling author Peter David. "No one hates to lose more than John Ordover. So you can imagine my surprise when he lost 100 pounds without breaking a sweat.... Amazing!" -New York Times best-selling author David Mack "Losing weight is hard for everyone, but few can write about it with as much warmth, humor and honesty as John Ordover does in this remarkable book. He takes us along as he loses more than a hundred pounds, relating every step of his journey with refreshing candor and insight. His experience should serve as an inspiration to anyone looking to lose weight and keep it off."- David K. Randall, New York Times bestselling author of Dreamland: Adventures in the Strange Science of Sleep "With elegant grace and a touch of humor, John Ordover takes us through his fight to lose 100 pounds. The portrait of his struggle and celebration of his success will motivate of anyone looking to shed pounds. Let this book be your guide on how you, too, can Lie There and Lose Weight. - Thomas A. McKean, author of Soon Will Come the Light: A View From Inside the Autism Puzzle "Lie There and Lose Weight...reads like a thrilling suspense story that plays out one pound at a time, as John Ordover takes us through his struggle not only to lose weight but to save his life. An inspiring, must have book for everyone who finds losing weight to be a real pain in the a**." - New York Times bestselling author Diane Carey "What I admire most about Lie There and Lose Weight is that it doesn't contain the phrase 'made easy.' John Ordover acknowledges that losing weight - and keeping it off - is incredibly difficult and very hard work. Bravo."--Keith R.A. DeCandido, best-selling author of Star Trek: The Klingon Art of War "The best weight loss book I have ever read. So much of what John Ordover writes I have experienced, felt and dealt with. That my son has autism means taking care of myself is mandatory, so I can be around to take care of him. Fifteen months ago I was in the best shape of my life. Now I'm dealing with major physical issues, gained 25 pounds, and am wanting my old body and clothes back. I was feeling the futility of it all and was buoyed ... by learning I could lose weight without running a 5K 3 times a week." - Becky Large, Champion Autism Network." "This book has already helped me lose 50 pounds!" - Warren Lapine, Wilder Publications.

Blue Skies and a Clean Getaway

Blue Skies And A Clean Getaway: The 90's are back with a vengeance and they've brought with them all the trappings of the 80's and the 00's that were worth holding onto. Inspired girl/guy vocals over often blistering pop leaning guitar rock. These lucky 13 songs will take you around the block and back with their inspired and rocking rockness. ROCK! The first collection of original tunes from this NW power trio. They've thrown in some Cheap Trick and a little Band just so you know where they're coming from. The Valiant Arms: A Brief Chronology Eugene 1996 Diane (then Beck)-of Oswald Five-O-and Jonn Lunsford and Lisa Jackson of the Crabs record a single under the name "22 Sparkling Smiles" with Rob Jones in his garage. That single becomes the 10th release on Rob's budding Jealous Butcher label. Portland 2005 Sweetly haunted by the songs of the Crabs over the years, Rob Jones gets the idea to release a split 7" with him doing his favorite Crab song on one side and inviting Diane (now Rios) to do the same on the other. To assist, he recruits some other old Eugene friends, Kevin Walters (ex Soda Jerk guitar slinger) and Rachel Blumberg (drummer extraordinaire and overall shining star). And one fine spring morning Diane, Rachel, Rob, Kevin, and their engineering pal Adam Selzer, meet up at Type Foundry-Diane and Kevin making the trip up from Eugene and Salem respectively. They effortlessly learn and record six songs and the project grows from a 7" split single to a collaborative 10" record. They dub their glorious union The Valiant Arms and vow to rock again. Portland (a year or so later) Diane moves up to Portland, gives Rob a call, and The Valiant Arms are reactivated with a vengeance. Unfortunately, Kevin and Rachel must bow out, Kevin tied down by job/life commitments in Salem and Rachel busy trotting the globe with the likes of M.Ward and Bright Eyes. But mammoth drum-pounder and all around rock n' roll renaissance dude, Eric Jensen, steps into the breach, transforming TVA into a full tilt power pop trio. But the collaborative spirit does not die-rumors fly that the band's first album (as a three piece) will have very special guests-and Rachel agrees to stay on as the band's spiritual adviser. What about the Crab's tribute that started it all? Rob, ever the master producer, enlisted some more friends to contribute their ample talents to the project: Derek Trost played some drums and accordion, Tony Moreno added some bass and banjo, Cory Grey played some trumpet, Eric Clampitt played the pedal steel, and Adam Selzer provided a dash of mandolin. The final product is JB-060-'Swallow The Sea: The Songs Of The Crabs,' a beautifully hand silk-screened limited edition (51 copies!) lathe cut 10'. It also appears as a less limited run of specially packaged CDs, as well as a limitless digital download available soon from your favorite digital retailer. And don't forget to come out and hear the sweet strains of The Valiant Arms at a gin joint near you! Viva la Crabs! Viva la Valiant Arms!
