Should you do the keto diet?

  As a nutrition coach, one of the most common questions I get asked is what I think of a certain diet.  It’s not surprising.  After all, no one diet is 100 percent right for everyone, all the time.  Our biochemial individuality makes us unique in many ways, and what’s good for one person is not necessarily good for another.  Plus your choice of diet largely depends on what you’re aiming to accomplish.  Of course,...

Why your weight loss resolution failed AGAIN

  If you are among the 45 percent of Americans (which includes a whopping 86 percent of millennials) that made a New Year’s resolution 43 days ago, chances are excellent at that time that you were envisioning a slimmer version of yourself in the mirror by now.

What is your ideal bodyweight?

What is your ideal bodyweight?

  Here’s a good one for you. This morning as I was preparing to write today’s blog, I went online to a site that claims to calculate your ideal bodyweight.  I put in my parameters—frame size, height, weight and gender—and guess what. It came back and said I was one pound OVERWEIGHT. Me—the person that consistently eats a healthy diet, works out vigorously six days a week, and at age 57 still wears a size...

Forget age—this is a better indicator of your life expectancy

  The saying, “Age is just a number” is usually said to comfort and reassure someone who reaches an upper milestone birthday and is feeling old! But recent studies have shown that there’s a lot of truth to that statement. Especially when you’re talking about someone who engages in regular exercise! Although it’s a dreaded word for many people, you can’t deny that regular exercise provides some pretty impressive health benefits, the most obvious being...
