Shopping cart
As a health counselor I can’t help but look into the shopping carts of fellow shoppers to see what types of products and produce they load into their carts. In some cases I have had to fight the urge to question some shoppers as to why they just selected a product full of sugar, fat and artificial ingredients.

Below are some quick tips to help move your regular shopping list to a nutritious filled list:

Typical food items on shopping list:

  • White Bread
  • White Rice
  • Salmon
  • Chicken
  • Vegetable Oil

Nutritious shopping list:

  • Whole Grain Bread (not just whole wheat)
  • Brown Rice
  • Wild Salmon (not farmed)
  • Free-Range, Antibiotic-Free Chicken
  • Olive Oil or Coconut Oil (more…)

Biggest Loser and Brita’s Filter For Good Partner for Season 8

brita filter for goodOnce again, you’ll see Biggest Loser contestants staying well-hydrated on campus, but not with disposable water bottles. For several seasons the contestants have relied on a partnership with Brita’s Filter For Good program to help them hydrate and save the planet.

All contestants, trainers, and other Biggest Loser staff receive Filter For Good Nalgene bottles (BPA-Free!) and keep those filled with refreshing water via Brita pitchers and faucet mounts found throughout the house and gym. This helps the campus save literally tens of thousands of bottles of waters each season, and prevent all that waste from hitting our landfills. (more…)

EA Sports Active Demo and Giveaway

UPDATE: Congratulations to MyDIR user Hillsa. He logged in to MyDIR using Facebook Connect and won the EA Sports Active.ea sports active

Last month the new EA Sports Active was released. It’s a revolutionary new fitness game for the Wii that came with much hype. We finally got a chance to try it for ourselves, and have to say we’re quite pleased with the results.

Watch our demo now, and then learn how you can get the EA Sports Active for yourself!
