Sister Carrie
No, I’m not actually talking about the classic novel by Theodore Drieser… the title just popped into my head after reading this “My Turn” article Carrie Lugar Slayback wrote for the Los Angeles Times. There is one place this 66-year-old retired elementary school teacher feels equal to anyone, on a par with the best and the biggest: in the gym, lifting weights. I don’t care if I weigh 111 pounds and bench...
Spanx For Dudes?
Introducing the RipTFusion, “the revolutionary torso enhancing undershirt.” And no, I don’t believe in Spanx for wimmin, either. What’s the point in pretending to have a better body than you really do? If you need “body shaping” undergarments to look good in clothes, then it’s time to hit the gym.

I believe Cellulean is a perfect complimentary product to be utilized with all your weight loss and fat...

Just a few years back, I could count the number of prominent web sites entirely dedicated to reviewing supplements on one hand. Now, a search for just about any product – especially those dedicated to weight loss – brings up dozens of sites. Many have names like “consumer-something or...
HCG, “Questionable” Studies, The Placebo Effect And More…
As recently witnessed by Elissa in this superb post, things are really heating up on the HCG feedback page over at Real-Customer-Comments.com (if you’re interested in learning about HCG and the Simeons protocol, you can read the full review of HCG here!) Seems I’ve really irked a few folks by pointing out that ALL the documented evidence shows that HCG does not provide any benefit over that provided by a placebo. While...
