With all the fad diets and weight loss crazes, it can be hard to understand what is really a healthy tactic or an unhealthy fad. This Livestrong article is pretty good.

Who else is feeling the dog days of winter crunch? Are you finding excuses to skip workouts, dig into ice cream while sitting on the couch watching women's figure skating to the song "Send in the clowns"? I found a good article "How to Bust Your 6 Biggest excuses" from Beachbody. It will help you see through some of your own excuses. (I'm stumbling on a lot of great articles and nuggets recently.)

When you're feeling overworked or overwhelmed, it's easy to find an excuse to skip a workout…or two…or a whole week's worth. But don't let bad excuses get in the way of good intentions. Here's how to keep them from derailing your fitness routine.
