Is Cellulite Treatable? What Is It, Why Do I Have It, and Can I Beat It?

Is Cellulite Treatable? What Is It, Why Do I Have It, and Can I Beat It?

Surgical procedures such as liposuction are actually not recommended for cellulite, as they will often make the appearance of cellulite worse because the fat cells weren’t the original problem; it was the loose connective tissue. Liposuction can create a deeper and far more irregular appearance since there would be no fat cells to hold the loose connective tissue in place at all.

Top 5 Essential Fitness Gifts

Top 5 Essential Fitness Gifts

The key to any great workout is great music, and the key to enjoying great music is quality sound. Cable is so last year. Even my dog has Bluetooth these days, so why not cut the cords on your loved one and give them the gift of freedom.

The Kimberly Hotel Subtle and Stately Sophistication on New York’s Eastside

The lobby area is warm and graceful. It actually feels as if you are in a private residence. That feeling continues when you get to your room. Our one-bedroom suite on the 12th floor was elegant and welcoming. It gives you the feeling of home. Or the home you wish you had!

Alfred Hitchcock’s “The 39 Steps” – Off Broadway

Alfred Hitchcock’s “The 39 Steps” – Off Broadway

Based on the 1935 movie thriller, on stage the thrills and surprises are played for laughs. It’s all a non-stop pleasure with only 4 actors playing all the roles.

Stieg Larsson’s THE MILLENNIUM TRILOGY

Stieg Larsson’s THE MILLENNIUM TRILOGY

Never again will I judge a book by its cover—in this case, its title. ”Why would I want to read a book about a girl with a dragon tattoo or about a girl who played with fire and finally about a girl who kicked the hornet’s nest?” I asked myself when Amazon.com recommended these books to me.



THE BROTHERHOOD by Jerry B. Jenkins

THE BROTHERHOOD by  Jerry B. Jenkins

I enjoyed this fast-paced crime novel with its theme of hope and redemption when all seems to be lost. Jenkins tells the story in such a manner that Boone’s pain and suffering becomes so real that the reader not only empathizes with him but feels every bit his pain throughout his ordeal.
