I guess I could be defined as a health nut. I’ve been called “cra-cra” and a “freak” because of my workout schedule and eating habits. And I don’t have a problem with that. In fact, I wear it as a badge of honor. I live by a creed that I’ve been given this amazing opportunity […]
New Year’s is right around the corner and so is the annual ritual of setting resolutions. No doubt there will be many made but only a handful of them will truly come to fruition. Some people will vow to quit smoking, others to lose weight, some gleefully state all of the date nights to expect, […]
