Balance is Part of the Obesity Problem

It’s MONDAY! Woot! Woot! This time of year in the DC area is as close to perfect as you can get — the leaves are starting to change, the weather is crisp and cool. This seasonal change makes me want to declutter, and get ready for the long winter’s nap. Oh wait, we don’t get…
