Cheryl

Cheryl’s husband and two teen sons created this blog out of frustration.  They have witnessed Cheryl sharing the results of her obsessive nature to learn and understand ways in which she is able to improve her health.  Whether she is waiting in car line at school, shopping in the grocery store or socializing at a dinner party, she is usually sharing recent research, certification knowledge and experiences, or advice from those she respects.  The first three articles posted to create the blog were actual emails she had sent to family and friends the week prior to being presented with the new website as a gift.  Personally knowing the power of the internet first hand (husband’s blog and oldest son’s blog), her family has time and time again encouraged her to “start blogging”.   They felt others, in addition to family and friends, may benefit from her evangelistic obsession to share what she has learned from well respected individuals in the field of exercise and nutrition.
