Let’s talk diet…as in post-Thanksgiving, get back on track, healthy eating. Diets really don’t work unless we’re talking about a diet of healthy, good for you food that you’re maintaining for life (with the occasional departure, of course).

If you read last week’s post on the Ecstasy of Eating and listened to the audio tip of the week, you already know that the ecstasy of eating is all about creating total pleasure. I don’t know about you, but with the hectic pace that’s regularly part of my life, I have to make a

Can you believe the holidays are here? It’s so easy to overdo it – from eating too much, to shopping too much, to running around too much. It’s not too late to gain control this holiday season. Why not end the year with energy to spare? Why gain that holiday weight when you can start the New

Yesterday I was thinking about the fact that I often give myself license to overeat during the holidays. One of those, “I’ve worked so hard all year, now it’s time to have some fun” thoughts. Not that I’m not having fun the rest of the year, but isn’t there something about festive parties, holiday music and
