https://twitter.com/BioLayne/status/1735324423371047214 Tweet from Dr. Layne Norton on motivation This week I wanted to address the study that Dr. Layne Norton mentioned in the tweet above. Now, most people don't read scientific studies and only take the information distilled (often incorrectly) by the media. The reason I wanted to do this is because many people think the reason [...]
Things are busy this week. I went to see a college hockey game with my brother and oldest nephew. It was a lot of fun and economical. Tony and I are going to catch another game. Just the two of us. When looking up tickets, we wanted to see the University of Michigan and Michigan [...]
I have been a pie making fool. I made four pumpkin pies for Thanksgiving. One of these pies is a favorite among the family. I make a gingersnap crust out of the America's Test Kitchen Gluten Free Ginger Snaps. Everyone loves this one. So much so that Tony asked for a sweet potato pie with [...]
I was hoping to have a new recipe this week, but I'm just getting back in the swing of things and I don't have enough room in the freezer to make a new dish. Which means it's a good time to address indulging during the holidays. There will be holiday dinners and treats at work. [...]
I have enough food for an army from Thanksgiving, so I'm doing a little deep dive on the term "lifestyle change". This idea stemmed from an MSN article "Lifestyle Changes" are Often Diet Culture in Disguise. It gave me something to think about because diet culture is everywhere, even when we are trying to get [...]
So much going on this week. I put new brake pads on my car. Ended up getting a bit of a workout doing so. Every time I do car work, I end up sweating a fair bit. Think about it, lifting heavy things and using some effort to loosen tight bolts. Not every workout has [...]
I am doing another dessert this week because I have way to many frozen meals and I need to pare them down. Who doesn't love more dessert? I'm still keeping these on the simple side because we have some friends we are entertaining this week and I have to change the brake pads on my [...]
Now that I'm back home, I wanted to do something pretty simple. All this travelling has taken a lot out of me. However, I can't leave dessert behind. I like having my sweet fix after dinner. I just can't help it. I also think it helps me to eat healthier. If you are constantly skipping [...]
This is a repost of a post from the very beginning. I am traveling and will post new content next week. There are lots of great recipes out there. You can find them all over the Internet. You probably also have a ton of cookbooks at home. When you start eating healthier, does that mean [...]
Now that I have a bunch of chickpeas to use up, I'm making another dish that uses them. Last week's recipe was a bust. One of the other things I forgot to mention is that they may have failed due to using sugar substitutes. Macrons are so finicky. Note for next week. I will be [...]
