Okay, I know we’ve already done a few posts on sticking to your heart health routine at work. I know we’ve had plenty of posts about how to avoid snacking or how to stick to healthy tidbits. I know, I know.  This post is about both…but it’s more of a personal rant than anything. Even [...]

Cold weather can be a real killer when it comes to your physical activity.  I can spend all summer on the run, keeping fit and active, but once it dips down into the 40′s or lower, I stagnate. It’s no fun to go for long walks or to work in your yard when it’s cold [...]

Part 1: “Heart”-felt Holiday Gifts

Friday, 12. 4. 2009  –  Category: Heart Health
