  • If you’ve been through weightless and moved towards a healthier life, one of the questions is how do you sustain it? I don’t think there’s a simple answer to that question, and you have to find a model that fits you. For me, it’s been five years since I lost half of me and I…

  • Snowboarding: The days after

    You realise how unfit and how old you are when after just one hour of snowboarding, you are still feeling the effects three days after.  It’s a great wake up call that we need to exercise all parts of our body to be truly fit; work other parts of the body. Running three to four…

    Gone Bananas

    The world has gone bananas.  Bombings, shootings and phone hacking scandals are what dominate the headlines.  Everywhere I go, those are what people are reading about.  The world has indeed gone bananas.  If you can’t already guess by now, I thought today I’d write about how good it is to actually go “bananas.”  No, don’t…

  • Fitness Tip: Wear Pants

    If you are like me, somedays the discipline just goes on holiday and it takes awhile to get it back.  You start on a series of eating out with friends, then more and more reunions come your way, and before you know it, you keep wanting to eat more.    For the ladies out there, here’s a…
