As a newlywed (well relatively we'e been married almost 2 years) I can see a huge difference in the amount of food my husband eats. Whenever I'm going all nuts eating tons of sugar and running around feeling guilty he is also eating tons of sweets. I never realized how much pull my eating habits hav...

I work in a library in a jail - often not rewarding but sometimes someone tells me thank you for that book - I got to escape for a while and it all become...

I found the No S diet when I realized a hundred pound weight loss from years ago was creeping back up on me. I've managed to gain 30lbs back. I don't want to count calories anymore. What ...
