I feel the need to write about this since getting stuff done has so much to do with our health, both mentally and physically. How do you feel when you put things off that you just know you need to get to, and you constantly overlook those things simply because even...
Not many days go by where someone doesn’t point out to me the “fact” that healthy eating is “boring”, “too hard”, or “confusing”. Folks. Nothing could be further from the truth. I feel it is my job today to dispel...
Move over, Reese… there’s a new kid in town. And he’s a LOT healthier than you. So there. It must be said that Mr. Reese (especially in the form of peanut butter cups) were a key player in my chocolate-filled days of the past; indeed, Reese Peanut...
