 Nothing personal, but isn’t that a tiny bit of your holiday weight still hanging around? Well, all aboard the iTrain! If you’ve always wanted a personal trainer but just couldn’t swing the extra $50 per workout, check out iTrain – put your trainer in your pocket and change your body!
Using iTrain is as easy as making a new playlist in iTunes. It allows you to download personalized workout information straight to your iPod or MP3 player, and each workout -- teamed with the hottest of energetic music -- features a personal trainer coaching you through every move. Best of all, the iTrain library contains more than 130 workouts, and there is something for everyone. The most recent addition to the iTrain library is iBiClimb, a total body boot camp with cardio training and deep muscle conditioning, a workout that burns from 600 to 800 calories. Some other choices are the iSTRETCH Combination (mixes yoga, Pilates and dance), iTread for your treadmill time and iSculpt Ballet (wouldn’t you love to have a ballerina butt?!?).
iTrain is definitely cheaper than a personal trainer: Subscribe to 5 workouts per month for $9.99, or 3 workouts a month for 12 months for just $49.99. Or if you want a variety of workouts or just to give the site a try, you can purchase individual sessions for only 99 cents. Workouts are delivered directly to your MP3 player, iPod or computer. And once you download it, you own it forever!

The new Colgate Wisp is a single-use mini-toothbrush with a breath-freshening bead that will leave your mouth feeling super clean with no water or rinsing required. It is smaller than your house key, and has cleaning bristles which gently remove food and plaque from between teeth and along the gum line.

Each brush is individually sealed, making the Colgate Wisp an all-in-one convenient solution that allows you to clean teeth and freshen breath away from home. So whether you’re in the office, in a cab, getting off a plane or on a date, stash a Colgate Wisp in a pocket or purse to ensure you’ll have a just-brushed clean, anytime, anywhere.
And (it only gets better!) – the breath-freshening bead is sugar-free! |

 Have you always been a person with plenty of energy, but lately have begun to feel exhausted and hardly able to stay awake? Perhaps you’ve developed new digestion problems, achy joints and muscles, anxiety, and weight gain -- and you tell yourself, “So THIS is what old feels like.”
Dr. Frank Lipman describes these feelings as being Spent. He knows this feeling of general unwellness is not part of the normal aging process, but merely the body communicating its needs. In Spent, he identifies aspects of modern life that lead to energy depletion, and he shows how to rebuild your energy and restore your body (and soul) through sleep, diet, exercise, nutrition, meditation, and relaxation.
This process is a step-by-step approach. You’ll begin to feel better as you respect your body's rhythm. You’ll learn to sleep better, eat better, enjoy friends and family more and find time for laughter. Spent is a gold mine of life-enhancing, energy-restoring health wisdom -- all presented in easy-to-follow, bite-sized pieces that go down easily.
You’ll find in Spent that you’re not old – you actually are becoming more and more alive! |

 Was there ever a kid who didn't love Cheerios? Cheerios have always been an emblem of wholesome Americana, and now they are taking to heart the dire effects of high cholesterol. High cholesterol is a killer, and so is lack of the health insurance to have your cholesterol tested. Cheerios wants to change that and is launching Circle of Helping Hearts campaign that helps people get their cholesterol under control by providing cholesterol screening and education for women in need. Through the Circle of Helping Hearts program, Cheerios will donate $1 for every code (found inside of Cheerios products) entered at CheeriosCircleOfHelpingHearts.com.
So go out and buy a box of Cheerios and help with this important initiative. And if you are wondering what else you can do with Cheerios other than pour some good old-fashioned milk over them, get this great Cheerios Cookbook. It not only has 25 different recipes, but it shows 10 different ways to play with Cheerios (are you paying attention parents?)! |
