Stick with real fruit for your kids
Stick with real fruit and not the "made with real fruit" substitutes, at least according to an article at LA Times. The plastic wrapped bars, rolls, etc. are not as good and definitely not as health as the real thing.
.... parents shouldn't kid themselves. "They're not as good as eating regular fruit," no matter the promises on the package, says Mark Kantor, professor of nutrition and food science at the University of Maryland in College Park. Fruit snacks, whether or not they claim to provide a serving of fruit, don't offer all the nutritional benefits of whole fruit and often contain added sugars and sometimes fats, he says.Read more here.
....
The bottom line: To give kids a serving of fruit, hand them an apple, cut up some watermelon or put blueberries on their cereal. But, says Nestle, when it comes to packaged fruit snacks, "consider these products fruit-flavored candy — and sticky at that."
Working out while pregnant - Yoga
YBB Baby on the Way
Studies have increasingly shown the importance of a regular fitness routine during pregnancy. Not only is it good for your heart and muscles, but it can help relieve some of the unpleasant side effects of pregnancy, like morning sickness, aching back, fatigue, and constipation. Some studies have even shown that being in good shape can reduce your time in labor. It can also help with weight control, so that you can keep in shape without depriving your baby of nutrition.

Digital Devices Deprive Brain of Needed Downtime
Interesting article on how digital devices can fill up time but can deprive the brain of much needed downtime.
.... The technology makes the tiniest windows of time entertaining, and potentially productive. But scientists point to an unanticipated side effect: when people keep their brains busy with digital input, they are forfeiting downtime that could allow them to better learn and remember information, or come up with new ideas.Read more here
....
“Almost certainly, downtime lets the brain go over experiences it’s had, solidify them and turn them into permanent long-term memories,” said Loren Frank, assistant professor in the department of physiology at the university, where he specializes in learning and memory. He said he believed that when the brain was constantly stimulated, “you prevent this learning process.”
At the University of Michigan, a study found that people learned significantly better after a walk in nature than after a walk in a dense urban environment, suggesting that processing a barrage of information leaves people fatigued. ...
High BPM Workout Music
I put the following High BPM (beats per minute) list together for my P90x workout music. It may work for Insanity as well. I'll be adding and removing songs as I workout to them (don't know how pumped they get me until I actually workout to the music). I tend to be more Hip-Hop/Pop/Rock oriented. Feel free to add songs in the comment section. Enjoy!

Do you have diabetes?
Drew Carey had Type-2 diabetes. He lost 70 lbs this year. He was sick and tired of seeing himself on the TV and being FAT. A lot of people have commented he looked better with that extra layer on him but is he far healthier now than he was and will likely live a longer life too.
He does a lot of cardio, about 45 minutes a day and eats a very low carb diet. It worked for him. So whether you are into Beachbody products or doing your own thing, get out there and get moving. Also log your workouts with wowy, it's free and there are daily prizes! It's a win-win situation. Get healthy and maybe $cash!
“I was sick of being fat on the camera. Really, I just got sick of it. Once I started losing weight, again, like once I started dropping a couple pant sizes, then it was easy ‘cause once you see the results, then you don’t wanna stop,” Carey told People. “It sucks being fat... I was diabetic with Type-2 diabetes.”

Isaiah Mustafa
So you've seen him Old Spice commercials and in other venues. This guy is ripped and Carl Daikeler had the following to say on his blog:
Isaiah Mustafa, the 36 year-old model, actor and former NFL wide receiver is everywhere lately - online, in print and on TV, including an appearance this week on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno. One of the questions everyone asks him is how he keeps his body looking so great. Thankfully, he isn’t shy about sharing his secret!
“I’m fortunate enough to work out with Tony Horton of P90X fame and he keeps me ripped,” Isaiah replied to Jay Leno’s question about his ripped bod. Isaiah then spent a healthy chunk of his precious couch time outlining the P90X nutrition plan that helps deliver such buzz-worthy results, impressing both Jay Leno and Eva Mendes.
Dream Big
A co-worker sent this to me today.
I found this quote from Gail Evers, an Olympic champion sprinter who in 1990 was diagnosed with Graves' disease, and underwent radioactive iodine treatment followed by thyroid hormone replacement therapy. At the 1991 World Championships, she won a silver medal in the 100 m hurdles. Devers left competition in 2005 to give birth to a child with her husband and returned in 2006. On February 2, 2007, at the age of 40, Devers edged 2004 Olympic champion Joanna Hayes to win the 60-meter hurdles event at the Millrose Games in 7.86 seconds - the best time in the world that season and just 0.12 off the record she set in 2003. Furthermore, the time bettered the listed World Record for a 40 year old by almost 7 tenths of a second. She is most easily identified by her long nails.
Gail said this about dreams: “keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember, all things are possible for those who believe.”
Keep dreaming!
P90X Again
I am restarting P90x today. I DID start last week but the after-effects from bronchitis was still screwing with my energy levels. I am still on medications to help stop the coughing but I feel good enough to start working out again.
