Do you leave your meal choices to what’s available on the road, at the airport or in your vending machines at work? Because Eric and I are in the middle of moving to a new home, my grocery shopping has been erratic lately. I keep thinking… why buy food if I only have to move it […]
Why Losing Weight Isn’t Just All about Calories
Early in my career, I worked for a popular national weight management company.Their theory was if we counted calories and learned to make better choices with more exercise, we’d lose weight. After all, most people were surprised to learn at those “seemingly” healthy bran muffins contained a half days worth of calories. Even that vegetable […]

I love this chia seed pudding. It’s a recipe that I have no guilt eating. Nope. None. In this recipe I am using….Wild Blueberries (found year around in the frozen food section). LOVE these wild berries because they are wildly different from the regular blueberries you normally find in the produce section. Their tiny blue bodies […]
Perfect Split Pea Soup {Vegetarian}
Man, I love this split pea soup. It so rarely gets cold here in So Cal to serve up hot soup, but today is a heater-on-window-closed- soup-type-of-day. I’m in! Are you?

Low-glycemic foods are foods that contain carbohydrates that are slowly digested and absorbed after you eat them. For example, beans, whole grains, and vegetables are pretty low on the glycemic scale. […]
My Confession
Dear friend—I have a secret. No, a confession. I am a potato chip, chocolate cookie, onion ring-loving dietitian. Okay, I feel better now. Yes, I know these are not healthy foods, but I still love them and I still eat them on occasion. I’m human. It’s the knowing and doing part that causes me stress. […]
