Maybe 98% of Americans are Fat? |
| 2/12/2009 5:57:34 AM |
I just saw a couple of magazine covers, and then heard it on the news - Jessica Simpson is fat...?? If Jessica Simpson is fat, then I think most of America better take a look in the mirror!
We are all typically our own toughest critics. We get up in the morning, take a shower, get out and look at ourselves in the mirror...check this spot, check that one and decide what to... Read More |

Don't Make it Your Groundhog Day... |
| 2/2/2009 10:11:19 PM |
Remember the movie "Groundhog Day?" The same things just kept happening over and over again, never being able to get out of the cycle. Do you ever feel like starting your exercise program is being held up by your own Groundhog Day?
In the spirit of the day, I just wanted to remind you to not let "Groundhog Day" get in the way of you getting in shape. It... Read More |

Government Raises the Bar on Exercise...But Who Knew? |
| 2/2/2009 10:52:12 AM |
Recently the government released new guidelines on exercise, making recommendations for all ages. This is great, and we all commend the government and its agencies for advocating health and fitness, but who knew about this? Did you?
When it comes to stimulus checks and digital TV converters there seems to be no problem getting the word out to America, but with health and... Read More |

The Oprah Factor... |
| 1/25/2009 9:30:07 AM |
When Oprah endorses something, people take action...it is a well known fact that she has a great following, and has built a huge business around that network. But what makes Oprah so believable...especially when it comes to dieting?
She has publicly stated she is back on the Best Life Diet. I just saw Oprah being criticized on one of those entertainment shows - "Here... Read More |

A Day Off For Kids Pays Off... |
| 1/19/2009 2:21:26 PM |
It is MLK Day, a day off from school, and my kids and some of the neighbor's kids took it upon themselves to create their own business today - washing cars in the neighborhood! It is sunny and 75 degrees today, but this took me back a bit - this is not the youth of America...or is it?
I always say that fitness is modeled at the home. It is not a P.E. teacher or a coach... Read More |

The Triple Carmel, Extra Mocha Latte is Not The Problem |
| 11/13/2008 10:10:07 AM |
In our newsletter this week, we shared some information about the impact that Starbucks has on society. And I have blogged in the past about the cost of Starbucks, and the phenomenon that has been created by the coffee giant. Don't get me wrong, I go to Starbucks and I enjoy it.
I am 49 years old, and 9% body fat. I have worked hard to get my body where it is today. I... Read More |

So, Did We Elect The Healthiest Presidential Candidate? |
| 11/5/2008 2:30:20 PM |
We have had presidents in the past who had heart problems, and conversely those who have run marathons...
On paper, it seems that we have elected the healthiest candidate among the two. McCain and Biden released information on prior surgeries, Palin released nothing. Obama's release to the general public, "on paper", only consists of a one page report giving him a... Read More |

The Holiday Pounds Start With Halloween - Beware! |
| 10/27/2008 10:42:47 PM |
We all think of the "Holiday Season" beginning right after Thanksgiving and traditionally that is probably true...but when it comes to talking about the average 15 pounds people gain over the holidays - it starts this week with Halloween!
Think about it: your kids bring home dozens upon dozens of candy bars, sugar sticks, and taffy just waiting for consumption.... Read More |
