Women Maintaining a Healthy Lifestyle Through Prevention
We’ve all done it: Made that New Year’s resolution to get in shape and eat healthy, only to watch that resolution go up in smoke on the morning of January 2. When your kids are running late for school, the dog just polished off your favorite tube of lipstick, your husband is away on a business trip, and you have a 30 minute commute staring you in the face, it's hard to focus on a health plan. Like most of us you either skip breakfast entirely or grab the closest fat-filled, carb-loaded piece of junk you can find. The rest of the day seems to follow this trend.

Relax. We know what you're going through. Fitandliving.com is a destination for you to share your stories and your healthy living tips, and to read and benefit from the stories of others. It's about weight, it's about health, it's about getting your body and mind in sync and finding a way to live a life that's fit, free from sickness, and absent of distracting health concerns.

Help spread the word about being fit and staying healthy. Think of it as health food for the brain as well as the body!

We're looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Busting Sugar and Staying Healthy

One Step at a Time

Since I was about eleven-years-old I’ve tried dozens of ways to lose weight, almost always with a certain measure of success. There were pills, powders, potions, shakes, pre-packaged foods, juice regimens, fasting regimens, even little chocolate candies that were supposed to take away hunger! I’ve done low-fat, low-carb, starve-yourself-until-you-eat-a-
whole-box-of-low-fat-cookies… you get the picture. Have you […]
