So what do you plan on doing to move your body today? I did cardio on Monday (4 mile jog), Tuesday (5 mile jog), and Wednesday (1 mile walk), so today I plan on…

Pick One!
If you could pick one food (not an entire meal, just one food item) to make calorie free, what would it be. For me, hands down, it would be pasta! I love me some pasta. I can add a lot of different things to it to make it taste different each and everytime! You?

Roller blading - is this possible?
My nephew is on spring break and I took him roller blading at a local roller skating rink. We did a two hour session pretty much non-stop with only breaks here and there for water fountain/rest room.

Easter Eggstravaganza: Surviving Easter on a diet
It's Easter time and as far as food is concerned, it's all about chocolate. You'll find it everywhere you look - on the TV, in the supermarkets, in magazines and newspapers and all over children's faces. It's enough to make anyone's good intentions, literally, melt away.
