An Education in Perspiration

It’s no secret that exercise is a key component to losing weight and keeping it off. Without exercise, you can’t burn the calories needed to shed the weight. Start by simply walking down the street, taking a bike ride, or even heading out to the gym. Exercise can take you to places you’ve never been. Before you know it, the newer, healthier you will be climbing mountains and having a whole lot of fun doing it!

Clean Out Your Closet

In order to move ahead with your life and become the person you were truly meant to be, you’ll need to clean out your emotional closet. Resolving past issues and tidying up baggage that is holding you back will allow you to move ahead with your life, once and for all. After you’ve cleaned out your closet, then you can focus on the more beautiful you that’s just beneath the surface!

Simple and significant

By Bobby Hold, MPAS, PA-C

Judge Judy always says, “Keep it simple stupid!” While I would never call anyone stupid, I do appreciate the clarity of the saying. I counsel people on losing weight all the time, and there is a pretty consistent pre-conceived idea that losing weight is extremely complicated. As a former overweight person, I know damn well… READ MORE

Do you have a sweet tooth? I know I do!

By Bobby Hold, MPAS, PA-C

Do you have a sweet tooth? I know I do! Some of us crave sweet, and some of us crave salty. (I’ve been known to crave both, but sweets and I have a special bond!) In my former fatter days, I could tear through a big bag of Skittles with out a second thought. It’s… READ MORE
