My Diet Home Base
I have a home base or “go to” for just about everything. And by that I mean the thing – however ordinary, ornate, ominous, or obligatory – I’ll always default to when in a pinch or when I know I won’t be able to make up my mind and just want something familiar. Home base… Read more
Tuning Out the Noise When It Comes to Research
Note from TG: I know some people are put off when they read something only to get to the end and find out they’re being “sold” something. I just wanted to be straight forward from the get go that what follows is an endorsement for Examine.com’s Research Digest. I love what they do and what… Read more
Carbohydrate Rotation Revamped
Note from TG: I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it again: Han shot first I don’t post nearly enough nutrition related topics on this site as I should.

Meathead Fro-Yo (Yo!)
Lisa and I are heading on vacation to the Dominican Republic in 23 days, 17 hours, and 43 minutes (but who’s counting?), and as such have both been “dialing it in” on the nutrition side of things. We haven’t been depriving ourselves too much. We still venture out into the city every weekend to find… Read more
