I’m in love with my body….

My baby girl (12 years old) and I are in love with Ed Sheeran. We listen to him while we bake together, or when we’re hanging out in the kitchen, often singing with him, and occasionally breaking into a dance. OMG have I told you what my two teen girls do? When I start dancing around […]

You have to really really want it

What did you think about last week’s blog? My husband was concerned that I may have discouraged you from working with me. I guess the continued use of the word “slog” might do that? 😉 So let me clarify: Discouraging you from working to achieve your goal, with or without me,  was never my intention. […]

Did you overeat yesterday? You can recover from overeating without gaining weight.

Did you overeat  yesterday? Chances are, if you live in the US, you’re nodding your head. Many of my clients sent me “oops” and “oh shit” emails about their overeating during Thanksgiving dinner. Then they told me that is the last time they will ever overeat again. Did you tell yourself something similar? That kind […]

Stop eating when you’re full – our children can teach us how

  Many of my clients tell me they can’t stop eating. I know the feeling, although I’m grateful that it’s very rare for me now. That’s why I was so fascinated by my daughter last week. She was enjoying a customized breakfast just before gymnastics training: chocolate chip pancakes with hash browns. And hot chocolate with LOTS […]

Let’s meet for coffee without the coffee.. or the muffin

I met my Dad for coffee this morning. We had the best time – chatting, catching up, connecting. He had a latte and homemade pumpkin muffins I brought for him. I had – nothing. An hour before we met I was hungry, and I always eat when I’m hungry. I never make my body wait […]
