Fun fact: When working out on a rowing machine, you engage up to 86 percent of your muscles at once. Basically, it works your whole body, and really well—which is probably why the number of people using rowing machines in gyms, at home, and during workout classes has risen by nearly 20 percent since 2014.

It puts way less stress…
It’s a time of transition for the greater restaurant industry. Many brands are still trying to find their footing post-pandemic and make financial sense of the astounding inflation we’ve all seen over the past year or so.

He felt good but noticed an odd lump on his upper arm. “It wasn’t too big — only about the size of a hickory nut.

Then I found a lump in my armpit too.” Getting a diagnosis Jerry talked with his wife, Sherry Haines, and they decided to get the lumps examined. Jerry scheduled an appointment with his primary…

Keep plenty of water on hand, too, so you can rehydrate throughout the day.And as easy as it…
Here’s a sample script that Levister often encourages folks with diabetes to use when introducing their diagnosis. While it’s a good starting point, feel free to tweak this template based on your unique journey—as well as who you’re talking to:“I’m telling you about my diagnosis because I care about you and our relationship. I’d like to be able to talk to you about it, so I want to share what I’ve learned so far as I’ve discussed nutrition with my registered dietitian/doctor. They explained that having type 2 diabetes doesn’t mean I can never have sweets or carbs again. Instead,…
