I don’t think I’ve ever posted about my experiences with Barry’s Bootcamp. Let me start by saying that it’s not for everyone. Not because it’s too difficult (it is VERY challenging), but more because not everyone likes to get yelled at while working out.

I watched this video earlier today, Is a Gluten-Free Diet Bad for You?, in an attempt to find an answer to my life back on gluten.

Luckily, a lack of gluten hasn’t been that big of a deal for my social life. Although you can’t have your Sam or Blue Moon after work, I … Continue reading »
The more I talk to people about ridding my diet of gluten, the more I realize that most people have no idea what it is. Let’s clarify. Gluten is not a food. It’s not something you can identify by taste or pick out from your salad. It’s a protein found in wheat and other types … Continue reading »
