Although I don’t know that much about the Acia Berry Supplement, I think it is important to note that berries in general are excellent sources of antioxidants! That means they are excellent for your health, but that doesn’t mean they will help you lose weight. If this supplement is claiming that it helps you to [...]

I was prescribed metformin several years ago when I was about 16 years old. It seems that I was at 1000mg. I actually didn’t experience much weight loss directly from taking it. Of course, I was already exercising 3-4 hours per day and watching my diet (now that I know better, I was actually eating [...]

I had my 7th workout yesterday. We practiced our soccer kicking, did strength training, ping pong, and the sauna. A lighter day, but still enough to burn at least 300 calories. Today is the first resting day I’ve had. Actually, my buddy and I were wanting to workout, but my grandparents called me and they [...]
Yet another workout today. Still fun, although we are starting to push ourselves harder at the sports (a touch of competition is good!). Our ping pong skills have improved dramatically, I might add. In fact, it is actually becoming more aerobic since we are starting to move around so much more. Today, I used the [...]
Today was a very long, but informative day. I was actually at the gym for about 3-1/2 hours. However, only about 2-1/4 was spent exercising. For the rest, my buddy and I explored a few new areas of the gym, looked at fitness clubs/classes, and checked out the schedule for the rock climbing wall and [...]
So, I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow to see my new primary care doctor. I actually have been going to the immediate care center whenever I’ve felt sick the last few months because I really didn’t like my old primary care doctor. So, it is very nice to have a new doctor, even though I [...]
So, my previous list of antioxidants and phytochemicals was very long and, no doubt, intimidating. However, there are several key foods that you can eat that will cover all of the various types of these nutrients. I will divide these into those that are only available in a particular food, and those that are my [...]

I had another successful workout today. We met and spent 55 minutes walking on the treadmill (I think I only averaged like 2.5 mph, but it still made me sweat from doing it so long). Then, we spent about 30 minutes playing badminton and 30 minutes playing a new game called “pickle ball”. It is [...]
SO, on my second workout, I met a new partner. We got to know each other a bit, but we both listened to our music while we worked out. On the second day, I burned around 500 calories using the elliptical machines and the treadmill (for one hour and 15 minutes). On my third workout, [...]
