Teens are the ones who are affected the most by the load of misinformation that is out there about weight loss. I remember being on this boat back when I was a teen.

Can You Get Cancer from Eating French Fries?

Here are excerpts from an interesting article I found today on fried foods…

From French fries to ice cream, there’s no denying our love affair with fried foods – in spite of the fact that we know they’re bad for us. But in addition to contributing to heart disease and cholesterol problems, does eating fried food also cause cancer?

Cardiovascular exercise is necessary for most of us in our quest to achieving the lean bodybuilding look that we are looking for. Few can achieve the lean appearance required to see a full six pack of abs without cardio. In addition to fat burning, cardiovascular exercise offers many benefits such as an improved glucose metabolism as well as a lowered heart rate, blood pressure, and cholesterol. Now that we know why we need cardio, let’s look at ways to make it more enjoyable and effective.

Ok, I know I haven’t been updating this blog as much as I would have liked to; (and some of you have let me know about it….often) life gets crazy at times for all of us. I also have been struggling to come up with a topic that isn’t a rehash of the same information. I decided that since I have had a few challenges and set backs while competing in this Challenge, I would share some of them to let you know that things happen to all of us.
