Can’t Sit Still?

That would be me. I often liken myself to a toddler in a sense; when I’m on a plane, I simply have to sit in the aisle seat as I’m up at least one or two times each hour for no other reason than I absolutely hate to sit.  (Yes, I’m that person.  And have […]

No Research Behind Paleo? Excuse Me?

I am always pleased when my google alert directs me to an article that I believe will be accurately discussing Paleo, or someone who’s had success with Paleo, or a great new source for Paleo recipes.

Whether or not there is a post-consumption crash, in my opinion, is not the […]

Using Up Leftovers- Even Champagne

It’s January 2nd. Are You Moving?

As 2012 came to a close, I confess, I found myself scrambling to get some last minute things done, one of which was to complete a couple of outstanding continuing education units for my personal training certification through ACSM.   The online option to read the journal and take a quiz seemed fitting and information […]
