Hi
Well, spring is in full swing here on the coast! I just wish the weather would get a little warmer. It's a good time to get started with your new walking or running programs, as it's so nice to get out and enjoy the fresh spring air. Also, keep in mind that cutting your grass & working in the garden is great exercise too....but remember, I'm not talking about the ride on lawn mower, I'm talking about push power!

Eat Eggs for Breakfast! Here's some welcome news for breakfast lovers: Eggs may help reduce your weight.
Eggs already have been reinstated as a health food (the major Nurses' Health Study cleared eggs of upping heart attack and stroke risk). Now there's evidence that people who scramble, boil, or poach one for breakfast -- versus eating a bagel with the same number of calories -- bypass junk-food cravings and eat fewer calories for at least 24 hours, without even trying.
Thanks to what turned out to be a bad cholesterol rap, you may have avoided eggs for years. But eggs have always been a good source of nutrients and protein. And for reasons that aren't completely clear, it turns out that they make the body feel fuller longer. In one study, people with weight problems who started the day with an egg were still eating fewer calories than normal by lunch the following day. You know that line about "the incredible, edible . . ."? Looks like the jingle writer had a clue.
