Kathy Stryker is hiking to healthy! She set a goal of losing 90 lbs. and with her husband, Aaron, she is hiking every weekend in Colorado to reach her goal. She also has goals of hiking as much of Colorado as possible and hiking 14ers by the summer of 2013. She has lost an amazing 51.6 lbs. so far by hiking to healthy! I would encourage you to follow her story - check out her blog - her story is very inspirational for anyone needing to make healthy changes.
I just heard on the news that 70% of our healthcare costs are avoidable. That really doesn't surprise me because we all know most people in our country are overweight or obese and that leads to chonic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and much more. All of those are very costly. What is surprising to me is when I see people that are not motivated to change. And, provide reason after reason why they can not change.

As a dietitian, I have always promoted that people increase their fiber intake. It is recommended that we consume 25-35 grams of fiber/day and the average American gets 12g/day. Our fiber intake has decreased as our obesity rates have increased.

My good friend and business partner, Gerry Schroeder, shared the news with me....that you can watch videos and webinars that require adobe flash on apple products like the iphone and ipad. Skyfire and Puffin are both apps that allow this. Skyfire is not universal and has to be downloaded on each device, so you will have to pay for it more than once. Right now, Itunes has the price at $2.99 for skyfire. Skyfire Itunes Preview Link
