Are “healthy” foods sabotaging your weight loss?

If you are trying to lose weight, you may be consuming a lot more fat than you realize. And no matter what health "experts" say, fat is fat. Your body doesn't care if it's "healthy" fat or unhealthy fat, it is treated the same - stored in your tissues to help get you through a famine. Fortunately for you, that famine is likely not coming.

I want to be a strong woman

What makes a strong woman? Strong women have a look about them. A look that when you see it, you know. Maybe it’s a twinkle or a sparkle, or a glimpse deep into her soul.

Because she has been there. And chances are, it was another strong woman who picked her up and dusted her off.

The ah-ha moment, no matter how big or small is special because it is a moment when a person is completely at peace. I can see it in their eyes and hear it in their voice. Oftentimes, there is a moment or two of silence. Sometimes there are tears, sometimes laughter. But there is always a stillness where the world seems to stop spinning, just for a moment. What does this have to do with food? Usually nothing.
