Are you feeling overweight, tired, or simply unhealthy? Have you tried to lose weight and failed?
You are not alone. Millions of Americans are caught in an obesigenic world that is plagued with fast food options around every corner, poor eating habits, a general lack of activity, high stress environments, insufficient sleep, and a “sick-care” health system. In this unsupportive environment, it is no wonder that two-thirds of adult Americans are overweight, and the predicted health of future generations is even more uncertain. Before you know it, friends, family, colleagues, and your doctor will want to know your secret to looking and feeling good. There is no greater feeling than when I am able to introduce optimal health to a Client, find out that, due to weight loss, they have reduced certain weight-related medications or discover the new aspects of life that he or she can now more fully experience.

Camping Season, Summer Concerts, Outdoor Fun right around the corner in Gypsum
Spring is nearly here, you can feel the warmth and the smell of things coming back to life in Gypsum Colorado. If there’s one thing I love about Gypsum, it’s the spring, summer, and fall. Don’t get me wrong, winter is not bad, but the spring summer and fall bring all sorts of great outdoors opportunities.
The balmy mornings when you can take a walk outside, or the pleasant friday summer evenings listening to a concert at the Lundgren Theater is what life in Gypsum is all about.
One of the other great opportunities in Gypsum is the camping, hiking, dirt biking, mountain biking, and all those other things we can do in the backcountry around Gypsum. A great website I stumbled on the otherday which is a great resource for campers is campingtoiletstore.com. This online store sells portable camping toilets at great prices. With camping season right around the corner I figured I would share that link.
