I appreciate all your comments on my previous post about sugar addiction. This topic has really got me thinking! I’d like to explore it further.

I love sugar. You probably already know that! I’m also trying to overcome my sweet tooth. Why? Because I eat way too many sweets, it’s not what I’d call a healthy diet, it messes with my emotions, and it sure makes keeping a fit and lean figure a big challenge! In my quest to learn [...]

I’ve been thinking about setting personal health goals for the past few weeks, two of them in specific. Well, after some consideration, I’ve come up with two personal health goals I’d like to really focus on this year.

A large basket of candy sits on a table right next to my boss’s door. This attractive looking basket (Longaberger, no doubt) is joined by a glass candy dish filled with shiny, colored plain M&Ms. The M&Ms taunt me. Every time I walk past my boss’s office (which I have to in order to get [...]
