According to Oz on today’s Good Morning America, sugar is just like crack or any other drug, which is something I have been saying for years. You have to detox to get off the stuff, which is what we do when we put people on our Metabolic Detox shakes. They all say that it really helps them get off the sugar and recalibrate their relationship to food WHILE they boost their metabolism.

Almost every other detox/cleanse DIMINISHES your metabolism. That’s going the wrong way.

Just caught the beginning of Oprah as I am changing to brave the snow AND the cold to go workout.

Boy, she looks amazing. She has always been a beautiful woman, but clearly she has maintained her figure and her body looked great.

She is an example that you don’t HAVE to gain weight as you get older if you keep control of the situation. From the piece, she didn’t discuss exercise, but does appear to lead a very active lifestyle with horses and other animals.

You all know that I am a fierce advocate of strength training, but I also do believe that you have to get up, get out and keep moving. That’s why I went out in the snow with the kids twice yesterday. The thought of being sedentary all day made me brave the wind and snow.

How much are you moving on a daily basis?
