Try something new
Bake an acorn squash for dinner tonight. Cut in half, scoop out seeds, bake on foil cut side down at 350 degrees until soft. Half a medium squash has about 112 calories, almost nine grams of fiber, plus calcium and vitamin A.

About This Blog
 Healthy living is a journey, and like most trips, it’s better with reliable directions, good friends and tasty snacks. Personal Best is a forum for people who care about health, harmony and beauty, and want to share what they’ve learned.

Meet the writers
| Your cruise director is St. Petersburg Times Health and Medicine editor Charlotte Sutton, a Times journalist for 22 years. She goes to the gym as often as she can, mostly to support her chocolate and red wine habits. Times staff writer Irene Maher reported on health and medicine for more than 20 years at WFLA-Ch. 8. Now she writes a weekly column for the Times’ Thursday Pulse Page, and is never seen without her trusty water bottle. Richard Martin has been a reporter and editor at the Times since 2006. When he's not at work tackling issues such as health care, he's usually out running around - either training for his next marathon or shuttling his kids to baseball games and swim meets. Letitia Stein tries to practice what she writes as a health reporter, but confesses a terrible weakness for all things chocolate. Her alter ego goes by "Deal Diva" and blogs about shopping and fashion. |
