No matter how many times I try, I PAY when I eat eggs. If they are mixed in something I do fine. But if I scramble or like today, make egg muffins-- WOW, bloating, cramps, etc. Im the only one I know that reacts like this. Anyone else have the same?

I love eggs, but they do not love me so a hard boiled egg is out. I like fruit in my cereal so not sure that is the best either. Im sure there are a…

Get up!!
I was just thinking about the times when we don't feel like working out (tired, not motivated, lots to do) and the thought came to mind that being dedicated to your fitness is as much mental health as it is physical. How much do you grow on the INSIDE as a person when you are able to shelf the excuses and get the job DONE.…

Shakeology, Herbalife, Isagenix, GNC
Wow, I read a previous posting asking a simple question and was shocked at all the hate comments.
