Feel Good Now. Ask Me How

“When you change how you look at things, the things you look at will change.” Isn’t that a great quote? I read it the other day. How I look at maintaining a healthy lifestyle has changed in the last couple of weeks. I’ve been studying up on the brain neurotransmitter Dopamine and realize it can be a powerful ally to encourage... [Read more of this article]

A Krispy Kreme Cheeseburger???

Let’s file this one under the “What will they think of next” category! I read today that an item known as ‘The Krispy Kreme Cheeseburger’ was introduced at the Wisconsin State Fair this year. It was a big hit. A chef right here in Georgia came up with the idea of a cheeseburger on a doughnut. Why am I not surprised? Critics... [Read more of this article]

Healing Binge Eating Disorders “with” Food

I’ve written many times about overcoming binge eating disorders since that was my struggle for many years. Lately God has led me to look at the physical part of that issue more – from a “fight fire with fire” approach.

“I Hate to Exercise!”

Have you said or thought “I hate to exercise”? It’s a common barrier to Christian weight loss and getting healthy. We all know exercise is good for you but few do it regularly. But I’ve got a reason for this and I’ll guarantee it is not what you think. Pretend for a second that someone gives you a high performance race... [Read more of this article]

Eat Fat, Get Slim

Just the other day, I read a shocking article in the September 2009 issue of Prevention Magazine called “The Vanishing Youth Nutrient” (I included a link to it at the end of this article). The article outlined how the lack of Omega 3 fats in your diet can make you gain weight and may be behind some  diseases like heart disease, diabetes,... [Read more of this article]
