THERESA: Check out April Adamson's story today about an "Average Joe" who has done a remarkable job getting into shape! Sean Pashley, who was a contestant on the first season of that reality TV show, has lost more than 70 pounds through diet and exercise. He got lots of help through Beachbody.com, one of many online diet and exercise resources available.
Inspirational, huh, Girlfriends?
For Sean and others, the Internet is becoming an increasingly important resource for dieters. I love it for the calorie and running calculators I can find quickly, and for providing easy access to healthy recipes.
How do you all use the Internet to help you stay healthy?
YVONNE W: Every day I receive health related tips from Bally's Total Fitness. I also use the Internet to not only help me stay healthy physically, but to keep up with the latest fitness information (that includes not only physical fitness, but mental and spiritual inspiration). Fitness is more than just physical activity.
JENICE: I get on my parents' nerves with all the stuff I learn on the Internet about their various ailments. It's to the point where they've nicknamed me "the food police."
WENDY: The Internet is the first place I turn for any research question, it seems -- SCARY. But there is good info on there, if you keep your guard up. And I'll tell you one thing I love to get from the Net -- healthy recipies. Didn't the ones that April's chef had sound good?
LAURIE:
Whenever I want to know about anything health-related, exercise-related, I go to the Internet for some info. Hard to rate the quality of the info but there's always quantity. One site I find particularly helpful is yogajournal.com, the site for the magazine Yoga Journal. The site has so much information, including very specific (even video stream!) instructions on how to do yoga positions.
THERESA: By the way, as of today, you all need to register to access Daily News stories online. It's free, and it only takes a few seconds. (No registration is required to access the Girlfriendslockerroom.com, however!)
I noticed that, too, Wendy. And I'm not exactly a recipe person.
Posted by: Jenice on March 24, 2004 11:15 AMI thought those recipes sounded great, too. Hey, a tip my cousin shared with me on cooking ground poultry, which can be dry: chop up mushrooms in the food processor and add to the mix (maybe half-cup per pound). Helps keep the meat moist, and the mushrooms just take on the meat flavor, so it doesn't really affect the recipe taste.
Posted by: Laurie on March 24, 2004 11:15 AMFor those of you that used the link "increasing important resource for dieters." from our story on Sean to view the story ('Net Dieting Gains In Popularity')
The link to eDiets contained in that 'Net dieting' article has too many w's and won't work; the correct link is http://www.eDiets.com
I get a lot of good nutritional tips from the net, however, I still need to get up and take those daily walks. I have started out slowly and that seems to work best for me. I want to stay motivated. This is a terrific blog and I will keep checking in. Thankyou Girlfriends* for sharing your experiences!
