Once I went to my primary care physician Dr. Bicak. I told him about my dietician, who kept forgetting I didn’t like avocado. He said I could learn to like it. And I think that’s probably true. But my dislike for it pretty much precludes that because I can’t bring myself to eat it. Not…

In the corporate world, I hear this buzzword. It’s not a major buzzword or buzz phrase, like “outside the box”, “unconscious bias”, etc. But in my world, I hear it now and then. It refers to a range of choices. You generally cannot get a size 48 t-shirt. Instead, you get an extra-large. Instead of…

I am better able to handle temptations when I am healthy. That’s not exactly obvious. On its face, that statement might be seen as a mistake that should be stated the other way around: when I am able to handle temptations, I am healthy. In fact, both are true.

Makes me sad, I can’t deny it. I want to live a happy and healthy life and I’m not healthy now and not happy. Why? I can’t walk. I love walking. And I’m wracking my brain trying to figure out something I can do with this whole bone spur/Achilles injury. Patience. Read the full post…

Perhaps you’ve heard me talk about how I can’t exercise, walk, etc lately and have wondered why. I suppose this is a good time to say I’ve been seeing the podiatrist again. Last year I came in with the callus, I was calling a corn in episode 72. A procedure he recommended, short of serious…

Looking back, I got some really good advice from the dietician when I was having regular appointments with her. I know that experience drove the advice she gave me. She had seen plenty of people lose weight too fast and blow their metabolism all to hell, unable to maintain a healthy weight no matter what…

I think this was a great sort of directional adjustment in my exercise routine. I began regular resistance workouts, took shorter walks. These days I yearn for the times when I had so many activities to choose from. But I have to be patient. That will come again. Read the full post at http://RunningAFEVER.com/306 Image…

In both episodes 68 and 69, I mentioned recovery foods, and it’s a good reminder not to starve myself, even though I’m not exercising near as much as I was when this episode was recorded. Not only will I not gain muscle when I don’t eat well, but I can lose muscle as well. Read…

In episode 68 I was really trying to move beyond the biggest loser contest, and fill out some gaps in my diet or supplement regimen. That contest was not healthy in the sense that to win it I had to just basically starve myself for 12 weeks. That’s not a healthy lifestyle. The one thing…

This is a great statement of how you don’t have to go crazy. Unfortunately, a lot of information you get is tied to supplemental products that you really don’t need. If you’re trying to do this and make money, that’s the kind of thing you have to promote. Fortunately, you have Running: A FEVER, amateurs…
