IT’S ALMOST TURKEY DAY!!!!!

Ready or not--here it comes!
How are you going to handle the day?

My clients have been laughing and rolling their eyes as they leave the studio after a workout and I say ”Have a great Thanksgiving--NO CARBS!!!

What’s so funny??!!
A typical Thanksgiving Day feast includes Turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, sweet potato googly (googly=some kind of sugary goop--could be sugar or marshmallows or......), corn pudding(if you are from the south), corn bread, cranberry sauce(s), rolls, and pies.

Wish your metabolism had a RESET button?

Your metabolism does have a reset button.....the problem is most of us don’t have the will to push it.

It takes real desire. It takes real commitment. It takes real change.

Its not hard. Beating cancer is hard. Making better food and drink choices is NOT hard.

But it does require effort. Sustained effort. You know....CHANGING your habits.

Physics......OR.......Biochemistry?

Its fair to point out here that I earned a Ph.D. in Chemistry with the emphasis in Biochemistry. That said, I also took a lot of physics, physical chemistry, and physical organic chemistry.

I had a meeting today with a client who is struggling to lose weight. For over a year she has been fastidiously keeping a food log, counting calories, taking 3-5 fitness classes a day 5 days a week!
And guess what.
She can’t lose weight.
Isn’t that nuts?

So you’ve had a GREAT summer!
Everything is easier in the summer; getting dressed, exercising, eating.

But, OH NO........School is starting, the weather is getting a little cooler, and everything changes. The school schedule is grueling, the work schedule is unyielding and now you are getting home later and later from work. Its dark when you wake and dark when you get home!

The food in your house is now geared toward easy breakfasts, school lunches, and quick dinners. What happened to all the fresh fruit and veggies from farmers market?
