Forget that 35.7% of Americans are considered obese and if you add those that are considered overweight the percentage rises to 69.2%. This isn’t about that. Hell, I’m completely within the lower end of my acceptable BMI range and a California female doctor told me I was fat […]
I did it! Sort of. I don’t really set New Year’s resolutions. Considering that the New Year is often mired in a cocktail haze, setting goals during that time may make for some interesting, yet unattainable aspirations. Why be saddled throughout the year with such slightly off-balanced momentary […]
