Free Your Trapped Potential in 10 Steps
If you follow my blog, you know I don't believe diets work (specifically, weight-loss diets) though of course I recognize that this will never stop marketers from trying to get you to believe they will. With the current statistics stating that 35.7% of the US population over 20 years of age is obese, and-that this number has more than doubled in less than 50 years, I'd say those are some pretty 'sit up and take notice' numbers, as that equates to approximately 79 million Amer


Battling Bulimia
Talk about your ghosts from the past...As I mentioned in my last blog 'When it's Good to Look Back', this is part II of a long story.
