Interestingly 33.3 percent (19 votes) said Yes, I can't afford to buy more. This surprised me. Are people really eating less?
28 percent (16 votes) said, No, I'll just buy more.
Nearly 32 percent (18 votes) said, No, I won't buy more, but I'll reach for calories elsewhere. I incorrectly hypothesized this answer would garner the greatest response.
7 percent voted Other. Wonder what they're thinking?

During the height of the gas crunch, I carefully combined errands, stayed away from longer trips (when possible) and definitely drove less overall. Whether it's shrinking food packages or higher food costs, maybe there really is a reduced-calorie element to this recession.Read]]>

Yoga is simply foreign territory -- It takes a brave man to enter that room full of calm women, likely led by a woman or if the instructor is a man, not likely the towel-snapping-let's-go-for-a-beer-after-the-game type of guy's guy.
Yoga hurts -- Scientists don't know why, but men are less flexible, with boys losing flexibility faster than girls by adolescence. Weight-training tends to take priority over flexibility-training in male sports programs.
It's a brain thing -- namely, mirror neurons. These brain cells receive signals from another person and trigger similar reactions in the observer. Mirror neurons are firing when you're watching and imitating a yoga instructor. It's unknown if women have more of these cells or they're simply more active, but women definitely mimic better than men. Guys, don't lose hope. Your mirror neurons will improve if you keep returning to the yoga mat.

OK, guys. Have you tried yoga? Will you try yoga? Let us know in the poll below. The world needs more than a few good Yoga Men.View Poll%Gallery-26571%Read]]>

Q. Fitz. I'm dying to get in shape, but I'm just too tired to do anything about it. I work a ton, sleep a little, and can't even find time to make a salad. What do I do? Erica
A. Hi Erica. Your question is kinda like the "chicken and the egg" dilemma. I know you think you're too tired to be fit, but this problem is probably in reverse. You are simply unable to keep up with your busy life because you are unfit. Time to make some changes. Continue reading Increase Your Energy for ExerciseRead]]>

We know some of you feel the inspiration but sadly, most respondents in our recent Veteran's Day poll report that they do not. Check these out, the answers to our question: Does Veteran's Day Inspire You?

27.3 percent of you are absolutely inspired. Good for you.
63.6 percent of you are not really inspired, Ah, come on.
9.1 percent of you aren't yet sure.

For those of you who are not really inspired or aren't yet sure if you're inspired -- I say you lace up those walking shoes, take a long walk, and think again. Or do like Martha would do and hop on the treadmill. It makes her thankful there are folks out there ensuring she can feel alive, powerful, and free. See if it does the same for you.Read]]> Veteran's Day has come and gone, but we hope you honor your servicemen and women every day -- and we hope you are continually inspired by all they do to allow us the freedom we all enjoy.

When it's dark out when you start your workday and dark when you get home, it can take a toll on your well-being. There are things you can do, though, to keep your energy running high during the darker days of winter. Here they are:

Sun exposure. This time of year, it's important to get outside and spend some time in the sun. Even if it's just a 10-minute walk during your lunch hour, the sunlight will do you good.
Exercise. An active lifestyle helps to keep you energized. Commit to exercising every day. That doesn't mean you have to have an intense hour-long workout every day. You can vary your workout doing short 10-minute bursts one day, a moderate 30-minute workout the next, and an intense, longer session on other days.
Nutrition. Certain foods can help boost your energy. Healthcastle has tips on foods that will help increase energy. AOL Health also has a list of fatigue-fighting foods.
