And since I’m not drinking the 64 ounces of water a day...

I know there are diets out there that are designed to help you get rid of sugar cravings and therefore ban sugar from your diet. But even if you are on a sugar free diet, either becau...

It is a good source of fiber, vitamin C, iron, and potassium which are four very good reasons to eat it often. And we do like broccoli at my house.

It is true. It is pretty hard for your body to keep you healthy and running in tip top shape if you aren’t giving it the nutrients it needs. If you don't take care of your vehicle, it won't run very well and will eventually leave you stranded on...

I was. And to make me feel guilty about not wanting to eat my food, my Mom would tell me how there were starving children who would be happy to have what I wasn't eating. While I know that is true, having me...

Even now that they are grown up and either at college or living on their own, one of the first things they do when coming home is open the refrigerator while asking at the same time if there are any veggies and dip. The dip is the k...
