Greatest diet sucess stories: What's yours?
The editors at AOL Body combed through dozens of diet success tips at Yedda (an ask and answer site), 
and found some really great advice, read the best of the best weight loss tips here. My favorite? The advice about trying Wii games. My sister has Wii at her house, and after an hour of playing Wii Tennis, my arms were actually sore. I felt ashamed for feeling the exercise burn from a video game, but recent studies have supported that Wii can help burn extra calories and help prevent weight gain. Who knew?

There are lots of good reasons to eat organic--your health and the health of your family being the most important one. But there are also a few good reasons to not eat organic--it's expensive, it can be difficult to find, and when you do find organic products, the choices are sometimes limited compared to the non-organic brands. 
Since my return to working in an office (at least on a part-time basis,) I've been giving some consideration to lunches. The consensus, at least among most of my co-workers, is that bringing your own lunch is not only healthier for the wallet, but healthier for the waistline too. But these days, it seems like healthy choices are available everywhere -- even fast foods joints have some sort of customizable salad option, and with nutritional information often available, it's easy to make a healthy choice. And considering I don't spend every day at the office, eating out two times a week isn't such a financial burden. 
Every time I go to yoga class, I am sort of amazed at all the different 
I grew up in rancher's country, where the profiles of cows and cowboys dot the horizon and anyone who doesn't enjoy a good steak is considered a hippy. And that person was me -- even though we ate red meat at almost every dinner, I always filled up more on the side dishes than the main course, even as a kid. So it shouldn't come as a surprise that as an adult, I rarely buy, prepare or eat red meat -- or meat of any kind, except for fish. I'm not a vegetarian but I'm not a meat fiend either -- I'm somewhere in the middle, a 'flexitarian.' Meaning? I eat everything but i'm as comfortable around tofu as I am around a chicken breast.
The gym I workout at is small and locally-run. Overall, I'm pretty happy with it, aside from a few drawbacks--crappy magazine selection, 70s-style purple and orange carpet, to name a few--and while the equipment isn't exactly state of the art, I'm happier with it than I was with the large brand-name gym I used to go to. 
Once upon a time, someone tried to sell me some supplements that promised to give me the vitamins and nutrients that fruits and vegetables give me, all in a once-a-day pill form. 'But I already eat plenty of fruits and vegetables,' was my reply. They countered with, 'Are you getting 10 servings a day? Because if you're not, you should be taking these.' I assured them that I was and therefore really didn't need what they were selling. 
The other day, the folks on my team at the office had a celebratory potluck lunch, complete with savoury curries, rich desserts, cheesy delights and much more. After we were done stuffing our faces, one of our co-workers took on a sombre tone. 'Look guys,' he said, 'I have something to tell you. I think we all need to buy gym memberships and use them. Our waistlines are all looking a bigger. It's not just you--it's me too. We're sitting around at desks all day so we need to do something to burn it off. Especially you single people'
Today, the temperature in my hometown dropped to a breathtakingly shocking -31 ° c (that's -23 in farenheit -- but really, who's counting once it drops that low ... ) Motivation to work out is not usually a problem for me, but when it's that cold out, I can't handle the thought of leaving my house for any reason. 
I read an article once that said that if you can read a magazine while you're working out, you're not working hard enough. Ironically, I read this at the gym while on the elliptical trainer. That's my workout MO -- when I'm not doing weights, I work my butt off on one of the cardio machines with either s fitness or gossip magazine to keep me company. It makes it bearable -- otherwise, I suspect I would be bored while doing cardio.
