It’s back to smoothies and soups for me. My TMJ has flared up again in a big way, and so, for the past few days, I’ve been on a liquid diet. Again. I’m hopeful that this flare won’t last as long as the last one. After all, I’m doing the liquid diet thing solely to [...]

I have good news and I have bad news. The bad news: My week-long liquid diet (due to TMJ) has dragged out to more than three weeks, and there’s no reason for me to suspect that it won’t go a full month. Now, after the first week, I was given the go-ahead to eat soft [...]

When you think about ramen noodles and seaweed, the first thought probably isn’t “delicious.” (More like “cheap” and “fishy,” am I right?) But Annie Chun’s recently sent us two of its newest products—Ramen House and Roasted Seaweed Snacks—to try and review and, let’s just say, my vocab about ramen and seaweed has changed. See how [...]

Instead of celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with pitchers of green beer (that is sooo 2009), we’re taking a healthier approach to this shamrock-filled holiday with a healthy recipe for green soup by Linda LaRue. Linda is the creator of Crunchless Abs and the new, constant resistance, 3-dimensional workout, The CORE TRANSFORMER. I begin to believe spring is [...]
