February 2, 2011 By

January 30, 2011 By
I once had a friend tell me that he stays away from sodas because he didn’t need to drink his calories. Although I would have to say that the exception is an occasional glass of good wine. To me, that glass is worth the calories! In the last week or so, I’ve gained about 3 […]

Daily Fit Tip: The Shake Weight
January 23, 2011 By
MANIC: I promised you the Wii Fit Plus review but, note to self, don’t buy game parts used! The Wii balance board that you stand on to get your weight, body mass index and more did not sync with my system. So after I take that back to the store and get a brand new […]
