A recent report in
Science Daily tells us that,
although improving diet and exercise habits are beneficial for obese obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients, it may not be enough.
A small Australian study (10 patients) was done to look at improved diet and exercise as a treatment for OSA. Although the 16 week pro…

I hope you enjoyed reading the first entry in my new series “Health In The Big Apple”, where I delved deeper into some of the daily dining routines of NYC-ers. If you haven’t had a chance to read it, I encourage you to
check it out – but now let’s jump into my next topic of discussion “Staying Fit in NYC”.
When I first moved to NYC, my initial concern was how the heck am I going to stay in…

Exercise is difficult when you suffer chronic health conditions. Sometimes simply getting out of bed seems like the 'main event' of the day. It's so terribly important for us not to become frail by at least doing simple stretches and movements throughout the day. Our bodies are very frugal and will not keep muscles and bone and tendons it does not need.
From my perspective, chronic Migraine makes it especially difficult to exercise, and the joint pain of Lupus and spasms of Dystonia are an addi…

I normally try and keep my posts to a positive thread but today I am positive I am fed up with public policy decision makers (no one agency in particular) trying to come up with why we can’t fix the obesity problem covering much of the industrialized world.
An article that I ran across today said that it was the fault of location, lack of places to exercise, lack of good grocery stores and income level. That if you where a minority and lived in the slums you where doomed to be higher in the per…

I read a fun article over at ProBlogger.net that I thought I'd share here, since I'm sure we all spend plenty of time behind our computer screens and need that extra movement!
10 ways to get fit WHILE blogging
Some of these are hard if you use a laptop and actually have them in your lap (or if you're not allowed to exercise for another two weeks and two days) but I'm going to have to start trying the…

In a brief fit of insanity, I started working out again.
Last week I ran for a little bit. I walked for a little bit. I stretched for a while, too.
I did the same again today. I'm finally feeling sore from all the workouts and I know I'm going to sleep well tonight.
I reserved t…

When it comes to grocery shopping, wholesome foods in their natural state are the best choices. But in today's society we are bombarded with man-made and man-manipulated foods and food products! MOST of them are unhealthy, fattening and can be harmful. Keep in mind tha…

After reading wholemom's post "
What motivates you to exercise" in the new
Fit Group, I began to think more about the importance of exercise in my personal life. I have to be honest and say that I have always been somewhat of an inconsistent, or "fad" exerciser my entire life. Recently I've started to ask myself, am I always going to…

How would you like to be able to lower your cholesterol, lose weight, get fit, prevent cancer, eat more often, and feel great, too?
Forget the fads, hypes, or gimmicks and use sheer Christian power. The Bible says you can do it, and if you're reading this excerpt, then surely you want to obtain weight loss satisfaction.
Don't be surprised that what the Christian Bible reveals about reducing body fat and eating right -- is the same as what expert fitness instructors, personal trainers, nutritio…

I know the Wii Fit has been a hot topic of conversation in the WEGO Health Community (and many others, I'm sure), so I wanted to post this article I saw on the New York Times today:
"O.K., Avatar, Work With Me"
Sounds like the Wii Fit will be great for those of us who, maybe aren't getting to the gym everyday...
I don't actually own a Wii (I'm not even sure if I could hook one up to my television!) but from the…

Just when I wonder if things could get any busier, spring arrives and the weeds start growing, lawn care becomes a weekly chore and everything kicks into high gear. I prioritize all the things that need attention and realize how lucky I am to be able to do this. I have my health and do what I can to remain healthy. This usually takes the form of running. I do it because I truly enjoy it. Of course, there are wonderful
health…
