Keep Drinking Coffee

As mentioned, I drink coffee. There's been a lot of research done on coffee lately, and it's good news for those of us that drink it! However, bad news if you like "Double, Double", "Triple, Triple", or those fancy lattes. Coffee on it's own, or with milk/light cream is good for you! If you need something sweet to add to it, try unpasteurized honey, or Pure Canadian Maple Syrup.

Here's 7 reasons why you should keep drinking coffee. Just ease up on the 18% cream and sugar to get the full benefits.

What Happens When We Stop Exercising

In a few days I'm leaving for a week's vacation in Florida. I have decided to take the week off from exercising, and relax. I feel a little pain in my left shoulder sometimes when I exercise, so a break may be good for me.

With that in mind, I found an article about what happens to our bodies when we stop exercising. According to this, a week off, I'll feel a little softer then usual, because my muscle fibers are starting to dwindle and my body is retaining some extra fluids.
