As we keep blogging along here on The Body of Eve, I’ve recently questioned where I am as a woman in the circle of life. I’m creeping up on 50 years-old and health issues keep happening to me at such a regular cadence that it makes me wonder what’s menopause, what’s simply just getting old […]

Facebook’s Biological Clock
I’m not sure what prompted the attack, but my Facebook persona underwent some kind of major aging “makeover” over the past couple of weeks. It’s like one day I was identified as hip 40 year-old woman and the next singled out as an “Easy Spirited” 80 year-old. Did the algorithm Gods finally detect that sweater […]
Colonoscopy Time!
Warning: This post might be a bit graphic for some readers! This week I had the pleasure of getting an “around the world” length tube sporting a GoPro weaved up my ass. The actual procedure itself was a piece of cake, but unless you are living under a rock—you probably know that the day before […]
A New Key to Weight Loss–Healthy Bacteria
Hey there. Heidi here. Are you happy with your weight? As a fifty-something woman, for me it’s now a daily battle. I don’t know about you but fitting into my pants is super high on my list. I can’t afford to buy a new wardrobe every year. With a 5’3” petite frame, a 5 pound […]
Obsessed With Steps!
Over the past three years, there is something I wear on my body at all times that has become almost as essential as my wedding ring. If only my husband would have known 25 years ago that I’d cherish a rubber step tracker almost as much as diamonds. He would have saved himself several thousands […]

Another Belly Fat Tip – Mix Up Your Walking Routine
You can wait for someone to take you to the top of the mountain, or you can tie your shoes and climb there yourself. Following along in the spirit of Heidi’s great “belly fat reduction” post (http://bodyofeve.com/a-new-way-to-fight-belly-fat/) last week, I thought I’d share how I’m currently combining her recommendation to eat earlier in the day […]
A New Way To Fight Belly Fat
Well, hello belly fat. Who invited you to the party? Sometime between the ages of 40 and 50, ever so slowly, a new body part had appeared on my waistline. I noticed it one day when I attempted to zip up an old pair of jeans. What happened to that “relaxed fit?” Enter my new […]
The Happiness List
Holidays always make me reflective, whether it be the New Year and resolutions or the 4th of July and recognition of the many freedoms I enjoy as an American woman. But, let’s face it—sometimes we get caught up in the doom and gloom of life. Often holidays are the only time I get to take […]
Greek Quinoa Chop Salad
Yummy alert! This simple Greek Quinoa Chop Salad is a meal. Sure you can serve it as a side dish which I did a few days ago at Sherie and Michael’s BBQ. But in reality, this salad can hold its own as a main dish. How’s that you ask? Where’s the meat? Well, here’s the […]
