I have not been posting a lot lately being so busy with the moveĀ so I missed telling you about a few interesting stories that I have seen lately. Here are just a few that seem to have beenĀ underreported.
Cnet has reviewed their view of the top 5 iPhone apps. The iPod has long been a fitness mainstay and the iPhone is an extension of the the usability of the iPod except that you can download many applications to it. Cnet has done a good job of reviewing a few of the best apps for fitness for the iPhone.
More kids are getting hurt in gym class. The Diet Blog has the stats and the answers as to why more kids are getting hurt in gym class (hint: kids are not as coordinated as they used to be) The article was a real eye opener to me as I have a couple of kids that I push to exercise as much as possible but I worry that it may not be enough.
Fit Shack had a weight loss call that I missed. I was a day late in seeing this and maybe a couple days late in leeting you know. JoLynn at the Fit Shack had a free call where you could learn some weight loss secrets. I just checked and by signing up you can listen to a recording of the call (long distance charges may apply depending on where you are calling from), but the info should be really great.
How many fruits and veggies are enough? Pauls health blog has an article about why the USDA recommends 9 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Sounds like a lot but these are the key to a healthy diet
Looking to make a change and lose some weight? I have reviewed the top diet on the internet and you can go and read over 200 comments people have made about why this diet has worked well for them, as well as some of the problems.

JoLynn at the Fit Shack pointed me to an article that she wrote just over a year ago about a Periodic Mono Diet.
The idea of the diet is different than you might think of as a diet. This diet is not designed to help you lose weight, although you might, the idea is that you change your diet for a few days in order to clean out your Lymphatic system.
So what do you eat on this mono diet? Fruit for a few days or fruit and vegetables only for a few days. The idea seems to be to eat more raw food and to clean out that lymphatic system to help your body be better able at cleaning itself.
