Unfortunately, some people just cannot get used to the taste. Several of my students have sensory issues and drinking water is just painful. Their parents provide them with high-moisture lunches with cucumber and celery etc. every day to help out. With one of them, if I offer him water, he'll sip and spit it out, so that's…

It really depends on what happened the day before for me. If I've had a late dinner, or with-TV snacks (relatively healthy ones) which is often my Friday night routine, I can get out the door for a morning workout on Saturday/Sunday with no breakfast - without coffee isn't happening... If I worked out the evening before…

I've been the fat girl, and I'm still the wobbly chick with crap balance even though I'm skinnier and there's less of me on my mat. Then I took a gal who is incredibly fit and tiny to yoga with me, and she said that I was so graceful and flowy and she hopes one day to look like me. I've also had other people tell me they…

Every body is different. If…

Is your tap water disgusting? Try a Brita filter - they're great if your water tastes like chlorine etc. Do you find a chemical taste with bottled water? Switch to tap and Brita filter if needed. What about water is grossing you out? Maybe you need to sip, not chug? My best friend loves to use a Sodastream to make…

I'm 5'8" and currently 166lbs. I am a size 10-12. To put that into perspective, I'm 36. I weighed 177lbs at the age of 21. I am doing really super well in terms of health and maintaining energy and physical activity levels. My next goal is to see if I can get to 155lbs, but if I don't, I'm okay. I'd rather be healthy and…
