Well, since April 20th, I’ve done the Jillian Michaels’ workout twice. Only twice. Day 1 was last Friday. I felt ill in the middle of the workout. I thought I was going to vomit. I thought that was insane. The contestants on The Biggest Loser sometimes puke during workouts. But those people are obese, some … Continue reading

Like…”where’s the reward in getting to the top of a mountain you didn’t have to climb?” For one, how would you get to the … Continue reading
