Weekend Reading: Master Your Metabolism by Jillian Michaels
The key to mastering your metabolism, according to the new book by Jillian Michaels? Hormones! But not in the way you normally think of hormones.
Trend Alert: Antidiet Diet Books
Move over, Atkins and South Beach: antidiet books are the new diet books. Lately I've noticed a slew of what might be called weight management, rather than weight loss, books landing on my desk, reinforcing the ever-growing sentiment that diets, at least in the traditional sense, don't work. But changing your eating habits does.
Weekend Reading: The Daily Fix by Alexa L. Fishback
Alexa L. Fishback is my kind of nutritionist: one who understands that nutrition isn't always easy for young working women on the go. Her book The Daily Fix: Your Guide to Healthy Habits For Good Nutrition, released last week, acknowledges that work happy hours can tempt us from working out and that lunch meetings are a necessary but often unhealthy obligation.
Oh La La: TravelFit Paris
If you're lucky enough to be spending some time in the City of Lights this summer, you may find yourself indulging in some tasty pain au chocolat and vin rouge.

Weekend Reading: It's Not About the Bike
One of the pleasures of Spring is getting out my bike and tooling around town or going for serious rides. I love to bike. Do you?
Weekend Reading: Yoga Books With a Spiritual Flare
There are so many books out there on yoga, It seems like every yoga instructor in the world has written a book. Many of them contain the same information about the same postures. It gives people the impression that yoga is just a form of exercise, and that's all.
Weekend Reading: The Four Day Win
Sometimes it is hard to see turning your life around in terms of forever, because forever just seems like a long, long time to be going to the gym every three days. Well, what if you approached looking at your fitness or health goals in just four days?

Weekend Reading - Gaining: The Truth About Life After Eating Disorders
During National Eating Disorder Awareness Week, I think that it's important that we take more away from it all than anger at the fashion industry, misunderstanding and confusion.
