Why Is Summer Is Making Me Fat? You Too? LOL I googled why and found this explanation from a few years back on PopSugar written by #JennySugar. Thanks Jenny now I know why ranging from "Ugh, it's too hot to run", to "I could really go for a cold one", to "Another barbecue? Sure !" to outdoor seating at restaurants that suck us all in! (because who can stay in when it's still light out at night?) All Correct! What then is a bloated summer lover to do? Suck it up? Nope! I'm calling in Big Gun Nutritionist Buddy Jacqui Justice today to HELP! She always has the answer, or some de-bloat smoothie idea for at least what to do 'In between' to offset this.

9 Reasons Why Summer Is Making You Fat

I'm into tracking myself these days, my steps that is, trying to get to 10,000 a day to stay in shape! Other people however, are tracking their heart rates trying to stay alive while doing drugs? OMG. Shout out to USA TODAY on the show today for this heads up and blow head information. 

According to this article below on the subject, "It isn't likely to come up in casual face-to-face conversation, but scores of users on Reddit forums, Twitter and other social media sites write about the value of their Fitbit or Apple Watches tracking their use of cocaine, ketamine, speed, and other drugs. Dozens of these threadshave popped up in the past few years on the topic, some focused on cocaine and others on MDMA, also known as ecstasy.

FYI: "Cocaine can cause a user's heart rate to jump by unleashing dopamine into the body and producing a rush of adrenaline. An extreme increase in heart rate is far from the only risk posed by cocaine, which causes more than 5,000 people deaths a year from overdoses, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse."

"Overdose deaths can be tied to heart attacks, strokes and angina, along with other complications, none of which can be prevented with an activity tracker. Cocaine is also highly addictive, and medical experts generally agree that even occasional use can be harmful to a person's health."

Random Run In With A Saint! Years ago Jimi-Lee peeked his head around the hospital curtain where I sat alone and cold in a chair next to my late moms bedside. He asked if I needed anything. He was running hospital security and I was freezing and had been told there were no more blankets. But Jimi-Lee went and found me one and I said, 'You're a Saint!' And he said, "That's my band!" That was many years ago but this weekend my friends and I danced once again to Jimi-Lee and The SAINTS Band in NY. Fabulous Fun! Fabulous guy! But his path from that night forward till we met again - wasn't so simple. He had a stroke, he survived a major car accident, with his now wife who it took 40+ years to get back together with. Meet Jimi-Lee today on the show and hear how the music saved him.
