		<title>Take the plunge and be committed!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My client and friend, Monica Peace, recently wrote a great blog titled  "In Either Money Or Life; Are You Committed Or Just Interested"  about reaching your goals.  In it she writes "There is a subtle distinction between interest and commitment that can sometimes fool even the best of us into believing we are committed to a cause."  What does it take to stay committed to fit and healthy lifestyle?]]></description>

		<title>Book Review: The New American Diet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently began reading the New American Diet by Stephen Perrine, Editor-at-Large for Men's Health and Heather Hurlock, former Health Editor of Best Life.

So most diet books don't impress me.  However, thus far I am a fan of Perrine's writing.  In the New American Diet, Perrine discusses a new class of chemicals called obesogens "that disrupt the function of our hormonal systems, leading to weight gain and many of the diseases that curse the American population."]]></description>
