Diet or Lifestyle?
I don't know if this has been brought up before, but this popped into my head while responding to another thread. The use of the word "diet" is interresting. It really has a couple of meanings, and they are related, but different. Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1) - Cite This Source - Share This diÂ...

I don't see why you even bring up a term like "Start again." It sounds like you never stopped the No-S diet. You just took your vacation as S days. now go back to N days. Be realistic. The No S Diet is NOT a weight loss diet. It is a lifestyle change that happens to have an overall effect of reducin...

My kids drink mostly water, milk and fruit juices and I usually drink water or coffee, and sometimes beer or tea, and RARELY iced tea or lemonade (off brand crystal lite equivelant...

First, I'd like to compliment Reinhard on choosing to model his workout on good old fassioned WORK. I can't tell you how many times I've longed to ...

Fireman and Driving Fence Posts?

I'm a 38 year old male who has been diagnosed with high cholestorol and high blood bressure, and I'm told I'm about 100lbs overweight. I am 5' 11" and about 290lbs. My...
