So, with this move to Huntsville, AL coming up, I’ve been giving the diet and exercise a good hard thought. As opposed to a soft thought, I guess. Anyway, I’m going up about 4 months before my family so the kids can finish school. Sucks for me. But for my diet and exercise, it could be ...
I’ve written about how I really like the Wii for a substitute exercise from time to time. Yesterday, Diet-Blog posted about the upcoming WiiFit, which promises to extend the exercise and fitness options to Wii owners. The base games provided with the Wii is the WiiSports package, which includes tennis, boxing, baseball, golf, and bowling. Most ...
So what was stressing me out earlier this week? A frustrating negotiation around the terms of a relocation agreement. But, it’s all wrapped up now, better than I expected, and we’ll be moving. We’re in Jacksonville, Florida, home of the Jaguars, and we’re moving to Huntsville, AL, home of… something, I’m sure. So, it will ...
I’m under a huge amount of stress thanks to a life decision that will change everything for me and my family. How’s that for an introductory sentence that grabs attention? God willing and if the creeks don’t rise, I might actually be comfortable talking about it later. There’s one last “T” to cross though. But, dealing with the ...
Wow. Kirstie Alley and Jenny Craig have parted ways, and now Kirstie may develop her own weight loss program. Um, ok Kirstie, but didn’t you lose 75 lbs on Jenny Craig? So, why should anyone pay you for an unproven weight loss program? Or, will it be so similar to Jenny Craig that price wars break ...
Remember Billy Bob in Varsity Blues? Man, I really liked that movie. It reminded me a lot of the town where I went to high school. The atmosphere back home has changed a bunch in the past 25 yrs, but back then, yeah, it was that kind of place. Anyway, the intarwebs are all abuzz today about ...
Came across this one this evening: Taking several bites out of eating The crux of the Five Bite Diet is, skip breakfast, have five bites of something with protein at lunch, five bites at dinner. Pretty simple. But it sure does risk missing a whole bunch of nutrients. I don’t think it’s for me. Update: Wow, seeing a teenager ...
This one hit my mailbox this morning: Exercise Seen as Priming Pump for Students’ Academic Strides Seven or eight years ago, studies offered mixed results on the question of whether exercise can boost brain function in children and adolescents. Experts are beginning to contend, however, that the case is getting stronger. “There’s sort of no question about ...
Long day working, doing the day job then hitting the library for some peace and quiet and an internet connection that doesn’t crap out every time I try to see a video. Knocked out a week’s worth of video posts for another blog I have (no, not porn… well, mostly… ) and planned ...
Well, I survived the weekend, despite a really bad Saturday – we had my oldest daughter’s birthday party early because of conflicts in March. Something like fifteen 9 year old girls for a Hannah Montana/High School Musical theme party. Can you say pizza and cake? I couldn’t. My mouth was too full. But, I rebounded with an ...
