Are You Counting Calories For Weight Control, or Making Every Calorie Count?
August 2, 2010
I spend most of my life counting calories. It was either the amount of calories, the number on the scale, the size of my jeans, or the candles on my birthday cake. It was always a number game.

Nutrient Density is the Key to Good Healthy Eating Plan
July 25, 2010
A rag mag about health found it's way into my gym (strangely) and it just blew me a way. It made sense! Mind boggled by a sense of clarity about healthy eating, like I had never experienced before, I took a trip to an event. It was then and there that I was introduced to a whole new world of health information and one of the guys leading the charge was Dr. Fuhrman. Needless to say, I did not feel healthy, living and eating the way I was, so I opened my mind and the rest was history.
