Fed Up Address US Food Addiction

Produced by Katie Couric and Laurie David (An Inconvenient Truth), Fed Up blows the lid off everything we thought we knew about food and weight loss revealing a 30 year campaign by the food industry, subsidized by the US government, to mislead and confuse the American public.There’s not a lot new in Fed Up, a documentary about the nation’s obesity epidemic. But it’s a decent summary of the issue, taking square aim at corporations and politicians. Fed Up personalizes the problem by introducing…

This year will be the first time that I am away from my kids on Mother’s Day. I have to be honest that I have lately been struggling with some “mom guilt.” My friend Elysa of GenPink read a recent status on Facebook and connected me with Skype. This year, I told my kids not to worry about getting me any Mother’s Day gift, BUT to make sure that their Abuelita let’s them send me their love over a video call. 😉 I have some demonstrating to do with my mom as she watching the kids while my husband and I are away, BUT Skype is my only hope to help me get…

Skin Cancer Awareness Month Hits Close to Home
Looking into the mirror, I rub a spot on my nose. Ugh! It is getting bigger. Because I’m a vain person, I FINALLY decided that it is time to call a dermatologist. That always sound easier than it is. I always put off going to the doctor because I don’t know WHO is a good doctor. It is times like this that I LOVE social media.
