After weeks of talking about exercising, I finally got moving. I’ll give you the ugly details and tell you about two of the people who have been inspiring me to get fit (one real, one not). And we’ll explore a crucial question: How important is exercising in your efforts to lose weight?

There are lots of sugar substitutes—saccharine, sucralose, aspartame and more. We take a look at the latest surprising (to me) research on these artificial and alternative sweeteners and explore some questions about whether sugar substitutes may actually undermine your health goals. We’ll also talk about how the busyness of life can unravel the best health intentions and share the latest numbers from my health journey.
