I recently read a FASCINATING book called “The End of Overeating” by David A. Kessler, MD. I highly recommend it! In the book, Dr. Kessler reviews what makes some people prone to overeating. He outlines the science behind the drive to eat when you are already...

It’s no secret that I’ve struggled with being fat, or being phat pretty much since my son was born. For those of you who aren’t aware of the term phat, let me help you out. Phat is a slang term that is an adjective for attractive and good looking (an acronym could be Pretty...

I’ve been a busy, busy bee, and have been on a bit of a spring break from writing or blogging the past few weeks. But I’m back, and just thought it would be a good time to remind you that spring is here and bikini season is around the corner! Not that you weren't aware, but it...

My name is *Creatress and I am a fast food addict. I love the stuff. Taco Bell, Burger King, Jimboys… Mmmm I could eat it three times a day. Of course I don’t, in fact I rarely treat myself anymore.
A little over a month ago my husband was diagnosed with high blood pressure...

Yes, the truth does hurt. Especially coming from your dear little offspring. If you still have yet to know the joy of your youngster giving it to you “like it is,” let me help you… it hurts. You will laugh, gasp, sting, but you can’t deny when they hit it on the head.

Recently I was searching forums and website trying to find a way I could work from home. We need more money and I absolutely refuse to put my kids in daycare. I was willing to try anything at this point, I just couldn't afford to. I read a post about a brand new business opportunity, new product...

My new Hamilton Beach juicer arrived and I was eager to try it out this morning. I plunged into the fruit bowl on the table head on and decimated anything juicy in my path. Oranges, pears, kiwi, grapefruit… even a banana didn’t stand a chance against my juicer. I poured a large...

I went to see my doctor for some mysterious pains happening the past few months. Along with the severe PMS questions. I would wake up at 5am with a very bad pain in my stomach. I tried to deduce the causes. What were my habits lately?
A glass of wine with dinner?...

It’s been a while since I posted an update on my quest for better health (and smaller clothes). So I think it’s time for another!
I began getting serious about eating healthier and exercising on January 2nd of this year. I’ve had a few bumps in the road, but am steadily...

Last night I was watching a Discovery Health Channel show about obesity in America. They were saying that having “fat genes” is like a loaded gun, then our culture and environment is like pulling the trigger. If you have a “fat family” it means your cave-man ancestors were...

I got a nice surprise yesterday. As I was driving home from teaching, I looked down to my lap and could see all the way to my seat, between my legs. Usually all I see is belly, so that's a pretty big deal for me. I was just a little excited about it (ok, told my husband first thing when he came...

Thursday my husband called me from work to double check that we didn’t have any plans for Saturday night. Something not out of the norm for him to do. I assumed he was going to make some plans with his friends or had a work event to attend. So when he told me no, that he’s planning...

Two things are most difficult for me during my quest for health. The ritual of eating bad foods with my family (aka: TREATS!) and exercise. I was telling my husband last night that changing your eating habits so much reminds me of quitting smoking (which I successfully did last year). It...

This is a question I ask myself often. And you know what? I usually find out the answer.
Three years ago my husband and I were heading from relationship trouble to divorce. Quick. With a lot of work and communication, we are now happier than ever. Last year I got worked over by a corporate job....
