Every summer when we enjoy our seasonal treats, the reality of today’s portion sizes hits me. I ordered one scoop for each of my kids and it is really more like two servings overflowing from this dish. I even made sure they didn’t accidentally give my kids a double, but the server confirmed it was […]
Live the Whole-Food Lifestyle!
Dinner! This is how I live my whole-food lifestyle. It’s actually a good fit for me since I’m not talented in the kitchen. I can create a recipe-free concoction by throwing any mix of lean meat, brown rice, and vegetables in a bowl and call it a meal! What are whole foods? Whole foods are […]
A Number is Just a Number!
I rarely post my progress updates, but my hobby is to compete in the Figure division of bodybuilding with the NPC. I’m heading in to my 3rd season and will compete again locally in Indy in late August and then at Nationals, the North Americans, in early September. For those of us in the sport, […]
Fat Loss: The Paper Towel Analogy
This is a post found on Lean Bodies Consulting and I often post it or send it to clients. I love the concept and the reminder it offers. Patience and consistency is where it’s at! —– “This is a post from Alwyn Cosgrove’s blog that I thought was a really good analogy for the rate […]
Cauliflower Pizza Recipe….{Kids love it!}
Disclaimer: My husband is the cook of our family, so after he made this meal and we ALL downed it, I wanted to share this great find. Also, we did NOT tell the kids it was cauliflower, but they did smell it cooking in the kitchen and wondered “what is that smell?” Hey, mum’s the […]

The “Year of Me!”

What is a REAL Portion Size?
We had some fun eats for the Super Bowl and my daughter wanted a bowl of ice cream one day as her after-school snack. I’m always amazed when I measure out the reality of what “one serving” really looks like. Darn it! One serving: This is 1/2 cup at 140 calories, 24g of carbs and […]
