Dancing With The Stars keeps me inspired and moving
Every Monday night, I try to arrive at the gym while Dancing With The Stars is playing on ABC. It's highly entertaining, the beat of the music during the dances keeps me moving, and until last night, it was to watch an 82-year-old woman kick up her hee...
Early Morning Muffins
I don't mind waking up at 2 A.M. Really. There's plenty of time to get up, wander around the darkened house, check email (as if anyone important is going to send email in the middle of the night), and wait to get sleepy. When the sandman ...

My supplements
Got some great deals on bodybuilding supplements tonight from DPS Nutrition. Never ordered from them before, but a reader recommended the site, and their prices were awesome! So, screw Vitamin Shoppe.
I weigh 190 pounds
Not content with failing the Stroop tests and mathematical questions posed by "Brain Age," I went to Best Buy with my boyfriend today to purchase another game for our Nintendo DS. We walked out with "Super Mario Bros. 2." I absolutely love this game ...
It almost makes me want to eat an egg
