James from Habit Guide asked if I’d be willing to review his (and his brother-in-laws) eBook of the same name. Honestly, I was a little hesitant at first as eBooks are just not my thing. The ones I’ve seen were just really poorly done.

I received this book a couple of weeks ago for review and was lucky enough to have some time on my Toronto business trip to get started reading it. I swear, I have a stack of books I’ve been “meaning” to read for YEARS!

I have wanted to post this for weeks but life been getting in the way.
This book may be the epitome of my food philosophy. I never hid the fact that I like to eat. I mean I enjoy the process of eating, whether I’m hungry or not. It’s probably the main reason [...]

Let’s start with the book reviews. They are easier to face then my confession. :~)
First I want to talk about 1/2 is More written by Jay Jacobs, the master mind behind myPetFat. MyPetFat is a replica of a human fat to either motivate you to lose weight or remind what you [...]

A few weeks ago, a Publicist contacted me and asked if I would review a book to include on my site. First, this FLOORED me! Who am I to review a book? Especially considering I’m not the workout queen and the book is about exercise routines.
I used it [...]
