According to an article at Science Daily,
Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in the United States. Although some risk factors, such as age and heredity, cannot be controlled, many factors, including smoking, cholesterol, blood pressure, obesity, and inactivity can be modified, thus, lowering the risk.
Interestingly, Arthur Agatston, whom you may know as […]
I’ve gotten WAY, WAY off track this week with my work deadlines and other things going on in my personal life. Can you say stressed out? That’s me.
I had totally forgotten how addictive sugar is. I have no control. Once I get started eating my old way, I want more and more. Yesterday, I […]
One of the recommended foods on the South Beach Diet is almonds. In fact, Dr. Agatson encourages diet followers to count out ten almonds as a good afternoon snack. It’s easy to get carried away when you eat an almond; they’re so tasty you may end up getting way too many calories if you don’t […]
I checked my mail yesterday and found a surprise — from Melodee of ClubMom’s Amazing Shrinking Mom blog. woohoo! It was my ClubMom water bottle, which she’d promised for those of us who sent her a comment about “dieting naked.”
Now this is not what you think! What it means is she has lots of dieters […]
I need to be honest here and update you on my diet. I’ve let it go the past few days! The first week of school here has sent me into a spiral of stress-related eating. At least I know what’s causing it, and I know where I need to go to get back on track.

I want to offer a big ol’ lively welcome to Ruth Schaffer, who’s launched a new blog in the Science & Health channel here, Eating Fabulous. Since she’s a trained microbiologist, I’m looking forward to gleaning her healthy eating tips.
Here’s a post with good news: Chocolate Promotes Cardiovascular Health Among the Elderly. Ruth says to […]
OK. This morning was the grand weigh-in. After two weeks on the South Beach Diet, here’s my moment of truth:
TEN POUNDS … GONE. I’m ten pounds lighter than I was 2 weeks ago. People, this diet rocks! I’ve written before about what you cut out of Phase 1 — I gave up pasta, rice, bread, […]
Have you tasted the new Tab Energy drink, bottled by Coca-Cola? It’s not bad. Not bad at all. I love the packaging — the bright pink color caught my attention. And it saved me from going off my South Beach Diet. Here’s the deal.
We attended a fabulous birthday/ tea party yesterday, held in a quaint […]
I stepped on the scale this morning, as part of my daily Flylady routine, and saw the numbers drop again. I’ve lost 7 pounds now in only 5 days on the South Beach Diet. I can’t say enough great things about this program. I may even become a permanent follower of this eating plan, which […]
