An Eat-Clean Weekend

Good Monday Morning Bloggers,

I'm glad you all enjoyed the shots from Jenny Hendershott's Phat Camp. If you would like more information on this event please visit her website: http://www.jennyh.com. She does travel to many different cities.

As much as I enjoyed Friday, I have some SERIOUS delayed onset muscle soreness. My goodness. I couldn't even finish my leg workout yesterday because I was in pain! I had to take an epsom-salts bath to get those toxins out. I could probably use a massage too, but I don't know when I'll be able to squeeze that in.

How was your weekend? My weekend was spent at home doing LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS of work. But I did manage to have a few Skype calls with my daughters scattered all over the world.

I am going to answer questions from the comments on Wednesday... stay tuned!

Hi Tosca,
I just had a question about fish oil supplements. I see you take 5 in the morning, but not every morning. What do you recommend is a good amount to take on a daily basis?
Thanks!

go easy on fish oil. We all should be aware of the upper limit when it comes to Marine sources of EPA and DHA versus land. Over 3,000 mg's of fish oil a day thins blood nicely....but also affects bleed time. When a healthy adult consums 5,000 mg (5g's) a day - they will litteraly double there bleed time.
