Happy New Year! What is Your New Years Resolution?

It’s that time again. A brand new year and the perfect time to state your resolutions! I have a hard time making resolutions and I am sure I am not alone. Committing to something is hard. But look at it as a goal, and a beneficial one at that. Find something you want to do for yourself this year that will benefit you or your family in some way and state that as your resolution. Why not do something good for yourself or someone else? It can be rewarding either way.

One of the top resolutions of all time is to lose weight or get into shape. The holidays are full of cookies, pies, and many other treats that are so very tempting and I know I sure over ate. So, losing this overindulgence weight is for sure my resolution. And plus [...]

Most people have a job they go to on a daily basis. And they have such busy lives they don’t have time to think about what to take to work the next day for lunch.

Eating the Correct Portions for Weight Loss

When preparing your dinner plate do you think about portion sizes and how that might be affecting your weight loss or lack thereof? You might not have thought about it, but its not always about what your eating, but how much your eating. And you might be confused as to how big or small a portion is… but I am about to help you out with that!

Over many years society has thrown at us super-size meals and big gulps and we have learned that this is how we eat! Large is better – but its not! Especially when eating fast food! When eating a super-size plate of veggies I wouldn’t worry much as long as they weren’t fried in tons of oil… but my point really isn’t about that, its about how we need to change our thinking [...]

Goodbye Hostess – This is good news for our health

I woke up this morning to the news that Hostess is closing up shop! WOW! That’s shocking! I haven’t eaten a Hostess product in about 3+ years (actually this is a guess, because I really can’t remember!)… but it still strikes a sad chord in me. Not because I want to eat these products or crave them, but just the iconic value that Hostess had in my life… growing up I LOVED the cupcakes, the donuts (“Donettes”), the Ho-Ho’s…. when I think of them in my mouth now though, I feel kinda queasy! Too sweet for my taste! But the memories are good times with my friends eating Ho-Ho’s, laughing and having a good time.

Nowadays I wouldn’t ever eat these products… unless I was starving! And there was nothing else to eat, I might. They just are nutrition-less… if that’s a word. [...]

One of the biggest diet myths is to stay away from fats: “You’ll gain more weight!” “They are bad for you!” “Non-fat is best for everything if you’re on a diet!” But this is all very untrue. In fact we need fats… the “good fats” not “bad fats”, of course. But, why would we NEED fats and how do we know what’s “good” and what’s “bad”? Well, I’m about to tell you! You can read more about good fats for your health in this book, Get Your Fats Straight. But for now, here is my guide on fats.

Why do we need fats? 

Fats help absorb vitamins and minerals and prevents vitamin deficiencies.
Fats give us energy that our body needs, especially if blood sugar supply runs out – fat acts as [...]
