Whether you struggle losing those last few pounds or you hit the wall when you go long, changing how you think about food can make all the difference. In Sweat. Eat. Repeat., registered dietitian Pamela Nisevich Bede will help you take charge of your diet. Over her 90-day guided program, Bede can help you improve your nutrition as well as your habits and attitudes about food. You’ll start by using the journal’s worksheets to track your daily meals. Bede will guide you to identify your food habits and show how they affect your weight, energy levels, health, and daily performance. Then she’ll coach you on how to improve your nutrition so you feel better, look better, and perform at your best. While nutrition is a science, eating is emotional. Bede knows this from her daily work with athletes. In Sweat. Eat. Repeat., Bede will lead you to a more mindful, positive relationship with food that will better support you in your sports, at the gym, and in your everyday life.

It can be challenging and demanding at times but there is nothing to be proven and if you have the time, you can explore a little more. This book is about the travelling done from the north of Ireland to the south of Ireland on the east coast and then on the west coast. I didn’t see everything nor was I travelling to see everything, there may be some places that I visited that may not be included on an itinerary. This is 40 days around Ireland. This is Ireland, but not all the island has to offer.

Short stories are usually defined in terms of characteristics of modernism, in which the story begins in the middle, develops according to a truncated plot, and ends with an epiphany. This approach tends to ignore postmodernism, a movement often characterized by a negation of objective reality where plots are seemingly abandoned, surfaces are extraordinary, and symbols turn inward on themselves. This book examines postmodern forms and characteristic themes by analyzing a group of short stories that make use of postmodern narrative strategies, including nonfictional fiction, gender profiling, and death as an image. The volume begins with a discussion of the blurred lines between fiction and nonfiction in the short story and imaginative personal essay. It then looks at the role of women in works by such authors as Sandra Cisneros, Leslie Marmon Silko, Joyce Carol Oates, and Lorrie Moore. This is followed by a section of chapters on postmodern masculinity and short fiction. The next section focuses on death as an image and theme in works by Richard Ford, Richard Brautigan, and James Joyce. The final set of chapters considers postmodern short fiction from South Africa and Canada.

This book describes the multidisciplinary approach needed to tackle better aging. Aging populations are one of the 21st century’s biggest challenges. National health systems are forced to adapt in order to provide adequate and affordable care. Innovation, driven by digital technology, is a key to improving quality of life and encouraging healthy living. Well-designed technology keeps people empowered, independent, and mobile; however, despite widespread adoption of ICT in day-to-day life, digital health technologies have yet to catch on. To this end, technology needs to be effective, usable, cheap, and designed to ensure the security of the managed data. In the era of mHealth, mobile technology, and social design, this book describes, in six sections, the collaboration of polytechnic know-how and social science and health sectors in the creation of a system for encouraging people to engage in healthy behavior and achieve a better quality of life.
