Great Protein Article from Hippocrates Health Institute!

Hello Defiant Friends!
Sorry–again long time no posts.  I have been busier than a one-armed wallpaper-hanger, & none of my occupations at the moment let me anywhere NEAR a computer!  Things are going GREAT with my training, & I will be competing in just over TWO WEEKS at the Pittsburgh Championships!  This is a HUGE show, [...]

A picture worth more than a thousand words!

Aging Disgracefully

THE NEW SLOGAN
On the way home from the gym, my favorite radio station played a tagline that said “Aging Disgracefully—And Proud of It!” I laughed out loud!  Immediately my mind started thinking of all the ways that could be applied, especially to you Defiant friends of mine.   This is going to be part of [...]

Tuesday Update, Carb Depletion in Progress

Hi Everybody!
I can’t believe how great I feel, and how much energy I have!  I noticed the phenomenon last night when I had a big salad for my post workout meal along with a simple shake of water, Sun Warrior vanilla protein, cinnamon and L-glutamine.  No sugars at all, and very little fat, just what [...]

Control

Hi Everybody!  Sorry so long between posts.  We had a wonderful trip to Georgia to visit my family for my niece’s birthday (and mine too–more on that in a minute).   My parents don’t have a computer, and although I did get to use my sister’s computer briefly I had no time to put together a [...]

Glory Days

Sorry I missed yesterday.  When I dragged myself in the house last night, I could barely hold my eyes open.  I had to crash.  I didn’t even stay on Crack-book–I mean Face Book–for very long.   That is the most addictive thing I have encountered in a long time.  It has been incredible reconnecting with people [...]

Fasting for Detox

Wow!  I am pretty proud of myself.  I just completed a full 24-hour fast, in preparation for a detoxing cleanse that I am doing this week.  The seven-day detox is on a website I really love called the Raw Divas.  The link to the cleanse is:  Seven Day Detox.    It’s free, with tons of support, [...]

Recovering from Christmas!

Hello Everyone!  I hope you all had an absolutely wonderful, happy, joyous Christmas full of love and laughter.  We sure did, and I am so sorry I have been away for so long.  There are just not enough hours in the day around Christmas time.  Plus Michael’s mother was here with us, and I hated to [...]

Healthy Home-made Protein Bars

It’s been a great day!  No gym workout today.  Instead I got my cardio and lots of bodyweight squats putting in my beautiful Rainbow Swiss Chard plants and mustard plants as well.  We have had beautiful weather the last few days, even up in the 70’s, but today was a different story.  My fingers were numb [...]

Optimal Post-workout Nutrition

The Christmas shopping is finally done!  Hooray!   Not only did I get mine done, but I did a lot for my mother too.  My parents don’t have, and refuse to own, a computer, so I have been shopping online for them and just having the gifts sent to their address.  That’s pretty handy.  Michael wants [...]
