Sh*t $how
So sorry to have cut off the "We care" slogan, I show my "caring" differently “How long have we been doing this for?” my friend Keri asked as we rolled our wheelie suitcases toward each other in the Atlanta airport. “A long time” I said but really it’s been at least...
Yes, I noticed Renee’s new face and I’m not agist
At some point yesterday afternoon one of my FB friends posted about the actress formerly known as Renee Zellweger (“you had me at hello” or Bridget Jones). I am not exaggerating when I say I didn’t think the photos were really of Renee Zellweger. The biggest change is...
Bake it Happen: Paleo Pumpkin Brownies
Yes, the look decent but read on... Last night, I was on my way home from work tired and hungry. I’ve had a couple travel days and as a result my office days are packed which isn’t a problem until the end of the day. I knew the boys would be getting home from hockey...
Do you have a Skinny Gut? We have a giveaway just in case.
I’m obsessed with probiotics. The more I researched them for The Little Book of Thin, the more I thought that if there is a weight loss secret- this may be it. That’s actually how I learned of this cutting edge (and I do think that’s what this is) new nutrition...
Charcoal: Yay or Step Away
Black Burger featured in Time magazine, more on this later If you’re thinking there’s always something “new” in nutrition we’re supposed to take or use, it can certainly seem that way. I roll my eyes at some most things that come our way. I am reassured though when...
Where is self-acceptance in this whole weight loss discussion?
Recently I saw a client* I hadn’t met with in some time. We first connected years ago; she was single and traveling a lot for work. In fact, our very first session was the day before she was leaving for a 3-week trip. I devised a plan but would be lying if I...
The Juicing Summit and juicy Giveaway
Juicing and the Ace Hotel, I was happy Last week, the city was absolute gridlock as President Obama was in town to address the UN. A little further west another meeting took place, a “summit” according to the invitation, to be more specific it was a Juicing Summit....
The Mother In-law Challenge
Last week, I was in my office for client sessions. Many clients had Rosh Hashanah on their minds. For any special event, I try to gather information in order to formulate a plan. “Where will you be for the holidays?” On this particular day three clients informed me...
What's in my bag? Nutrition edition
I am weirdly obsessed with what people have in things. What’s in their fridge, what’s in their shopping cart and Us Weekly’s “what’s in my bag”. It has nothing to do with wanting to critique. As I said in The Little Book of Thin, the fridge is the new medicine...
Keep drinking that coffee part 2
I should admit my bias off the bat and say I adore coffee. I also field a lot of coffee questions. Last week a client asked “in an ideal world should I quit coffee?” No and that world would be far from ideal. And It’s not just that you shouldn’t quit...
Are you vegan, vegetarian, paleo? Shush….
I would rather have a mind opened by wonder than one closed by belief. ~ Gerry Spence Last week I sat in a new doctor’s waiting room filling out paperwork. It was standard stuff past medical history, family history, medication information (none for me) etc. Then there...
Beyond paella, saffron may be a secret weapon
It may not seem like it but when it comes to food products and certainly supplements I am a huge skeptic. Clients often email me photos of food products or links to articles and often my reply is “I wouldn’t bother.” Over them summer I received the following email Hi...
