What is your ideal bodyweight?

  Here’s a good one for you. This morning as I was preparing to write today’s blog, I went online to a site that claims to calculate your ideal bodyweight.  I put in my parameters—frame size, height, weight and gender—and guess what.

Stay away from this horrible diet advice

Stay away from this horrible diet advice
