I am attempting to switch to morning workouts for like the 50th time. I went at 7:30 this morning and the gym was pretty sparse. By the time I finished my workout the gym started to get crowded, so if I make sure I get there at the same time each day I should get […]
When Medicines Make You Sick
We live in a drug happy society. Doesn’t matter what your ailment, doctors smile while they hand you over yet another prescription. I read an article yesterday that linked a diabetes medication, Metformin, with heart disease. So you go in for help with diabetes and walk away heart disease. Isn’t that great? So you have to […]

Does My Mind Play Tricks on Me??
It is so funny how I can look in the mirror one day and think, damn I am looking good and then the very next day I look and see a fat girl. It drives me nuts. Some days I have so much confidence I am almost bursting, then there are days where I feel […]
Aloha
I am in Maui. It is beautiful and as amazing as you would expect. The weather is perfect, unless you want to exercise outside. The cardio room they have at the hotel is actually outdoors. I did the Gauntlet last night around 8 pm and it was so hot I was melting before I even […]
