As her father says, the Ina Garten of B-More. One of the biggest benefits of being married to an opera-singing-Irish-wordsmith is her prowess in the kitchen. Her mother, who is closest thing to Martha Stewart without actually being her, is one of the best cooks this side of kingdom come; Noonan (my wife) soaked up…

As the New Year approaches, in the first few months, we will once again obsess over working out and eating right.

I can’t believe it has been 17 weeks and only one more day to go till JUDGEMENT DAY. I have to admit I have been mired in a bit of misery like George Constanza on Seinfeld this past week because I have been eating like a rabbit on a diet. All I can see is…

Tori is another trainer I work with—but not as awesome as Will—who is also doing intermittent fasting. As far as I can see, I think she is making pretty good progress herself. She did tell me she was taking a weekly selfie, perhaps she will allow me to post her before and after pics. In…
