Work & Nutrition
Let’s face it, we’ve all had extraordinarily long workdays before. You’ve got to finish a proposal and you just can’t get away from the office for lunch, so you inhale three slices of the greasiest pizza and a hunk of double chocolate cake — leftovers from your supervisor’s birthday party last week. Or maybe you drag yourself across your doorstep at 8:30 or 9 at night to find nothing in your refrigerator but bread and peanut butter. Time for a run to the store for a box of fluorescent macaroni and cheese? Not if you’re pregnant.
In Fitness and In Health
You can be fit at any size
We live in a world in which fitness is often associated with thinness. This couldn’t be farther from the truth. The latest research says that becoming fit is likely to improve your health and prolong your life, no matter what you weigh. In studies, the Cooper Institute found that physically fit people, under- or overweight, lived longer than unfit people. If you are overweight and you’ve never worked out before, joining a gym can be daunting. Enter Rochelle Rice. This inspiring fitness professional has created a workout studio for women-of-size only called “In Fitness and In Health”.
