We still have a few big holidays to go: Hannukah, Christmas and New Year's Eve. How's your holiday eating? Are you staying on track and enjoying the occasional splurge or is it more like a free-for-all? While it's true that the holidays are just once a year, they're a big part of the year.

Navigating The Office Temptations If you haven't noticed them already, you will soon. I'm talking about tempting treats brought in by well-meaning coworkers. Maybe it's homemade cookies or bowls of colorfully-wrapped chocolates. Whatever they are, you can be sure they're high in calories and low in nutrition (have you ever noticed that no one brings in ...Read More...

Cranberries on their own are incredibly tart, so sugar is typically added ...Read More...

We kick off with the candy of Halloween, crash into the eating frenzy that is Thanksgiving, run full-tilt through Chanukah and Christmas (Latkes! Seven fishes! Candy canes! Oh my!) Then we cap it off ...Read More...
Last week, we took a look at how to get through the candy-fueled holiday that is Halloween. What are you doing with any leftover candy? Give yourself permission to throw it out. This is not "wasting" it; eating empty calories simply because you paid money for them is the real waste, at great cost to your health. Weight gain is ...Read More...
