BBQ Season! I have always loved smoky barbecue. As a child, I waited for my mother’s barbecued pork chops with delightful anticipation. If they were cooked on the grill, that was great, but I loved them cooked in the oven too because it was all about THE SAUCE! When I first began avoiding sugar, barbecue…

 Casual Comfort These Merrell shoes are incredibly comfortable and are good for light hiking or daily wear. I was wearing a shoe that created pressure on the inner part of my ankle from the medial malleolus (inner ankle bone protuberance) to the sole of my foot, and this shoe instantly relieved that pain. They have…

Lifting Shoes! Before I started lifting, I would always find the most comfortable shoe with the most cushioned bottom for all sports and everyday wear. When I first began lifting, David told me that I needed lifting shoes, or I should learn to lift barefooted. I actually did lift barefooted once but didn’t like how…

Many people have trouble getting enough protein and this yogurt packs 17 grams for only 120 calories of creamy goodness. David and I both sometimes eat yogurt after a workout to promote muscle growth…

I like Polaner brand spreadable fruits. In fact, if were not for the added sugar content of their Blackberry spread, I would still be eating it. But since I do not consume sugar anymore, I am always on the prowl for good sugar free options. When I found Polaner’s Sugar Free Concord Grape Jam, I…

I bought a bag of Oroweat’s Keto Bread the other day to try and also to give you folks a good review. First, I am not in any way a cheerleader for keto, I think that keto is far too strict unnecessarily and that people who do not get it right, can make themselves sick….
