This year, I celebrate 13 years living in New York City. THIRTEEN years!! To say I’ve always been in love with this city would be untrue. It has tried my patience and my sanity, but it will always have my heart. When I moved here, I had no intention of staying as long as I have. I moved for love,… Read More
I love a good snack. When you’re hungry, the right high protein snack can be a life-saver. It has the power to satisfy a craving and provide an energy boost that can carry you from one meal to the next. I’ve noticed there are plenty of misconceptions about snacking. Two very common questions I get are: “Does snacking promote weight… Read More
Another weekend flew right by. As I type this, I’m watching the Oscars having just seen La La Land which completely blew me away and was so much better than I ever expected. A large part of my weekend involved more time on the project I’ve been working on, which I promise I’ll elaborate on soon. After a long week,… Read More
It’s ironic that as I write this post, the weather is in the mid-60’s in NYC – definitely not what I had planned when I scheduled a post about a fur hat. But, so many people have asked me about this hat, that I decided to devote a post to it. I love this hat because it’s warm and also… Read More

I’m loving them right now because I’ve never been a coffee drinker, but sometimes I crave a creamy and comforting hot drink. I’ve talked about my love of matcha lattes before, but… Read More

I remember when Sunday Funday was synonymous with hanging out in bars all day…. Read More
Traveling with dietary restrictions has the potential to be intimidating and at times can seem next to impossible. My husband and I travel a lot so when I went fully dairy, sugar and gluten-free in April of last year, I was anxious about how I would handle travel, especially outside of the U.S. In the past, I had made exceptions, but… Read More
It’s time for List #4. Well, it’s really past time. Like, several weeks past. I’m really behind on these and slowly catching up, but I’m not sure I’ll continue to post on the blog after this one. Unless you guys really love them. If so, let me know, but if not, I may just keep them private. Ok, so this… Read More
It’s Health Coach Week so I want to take some time to talk about weight loss vs. wellness and health. The two may seem to go hand-in-hand, but in fact, that’s not always true. In my many years of health coaching, I’ve seen how weight loss can become a distraction from wellness rather than a means to it. In an… Read More
