Health is the best goal!

How are you today? What are your health goals for 2020? Do you have any? Have you thought about it this year or has your busy schedule kept you in the same old routines? Where do you see yourself in a year from now if you keep doing what you have been doing? Did you […]

Set some good goals for 2020

Let’s talk about the pancreas! Yep, I know that sounds exciting right. What’s my motto…or at least one of them, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”.  So what do I need the pancreas for when I can just fix my hair and makeup and look good on the outside?? As I […]

Welcome to the “New You”

Them bones, them bones

Many of us spend a lot of time and money to take care of our appearance. That is not a bad thing! I know when I was a teenager the things that mattered most, that zit on my nose and how to get rid of it! Now that I’m in my fifties I am more […]

Nutrition is King

Letting nutrition be king over just a craving is essential to maintaining optimal health and wellness. In America taste is all the rage while in some unfortunate places many people lack even having enough food, let alone the right foods. While America is rich in options we are poor with our selection.
