Demi Moore Health Crisis
Oh Demi! Has a series of bad or questionable decisions put her on the edge? Demi Moore, who put herself solidly into pop culture history with her appearance on the 1991 Vanity Fair Cover naked and very pregnant, has seemingly hit rock bottom.
Once known for her toned physique, she now looks like a shadow of her former self. To add insult to injury, she was recently hospitalized after a 911 caller reported she was semi-conscious after doing “whip-its”.

Reality Show Saving Lives?
I love watching “Biggest Loser.” I know a lot of people find the show unrealistic and think the contestants can’t possibly keep the weight off, but many do. One even gained all his weight back then lost it again. I find it amazing that many of the contestants come in so sick due to their weight, then often issues such as high blood pressure and diabetes virtually disappear with exercise, eating right, and weight loss.
A new show just premiered that may help a lost group – overweight chefs. “Fat Chef” features a dozen overweight chefs. For four months, they are coached on how to lead a healthier lifestyle by nutritionists, trainers, and therapists.
Chef Michael Mignano is one of the chefs and he knew his job was killing him.

I mentioned it to my oncologist and he said well yeah that is a possibility. Well did he not think to tell me about that? Could it be because he is a guy and just did not think about it?
Whatever the reason was for his not telling me I am glad that I had read that it was a possibility because when I started chemo therapy I also had my last monthly visitor.

Things like genetics, hormones, training and nutrition all play a roll. But two things, above all else, determine how were going to look: motivation and consistency.
Consistency is often determined by our degree of motivation. Those of us who really want to change our physique usually find the least amount of excuses. The obstacles are the same, but we find our way around them.
Time never a good excuse. We make time for the important things in our life. If were consistent in our training and nutrition, its because weve developed a lifestyle that will lead to us achieving what we have set out to achieve.
