Lies Sugar Tells Us!
How many times do you have to introduce a savory food vs a sugary food to an infant before they will accept it? Studies show that it takes a median of 13 times for savory food and only 1 time for sweet foods. That explains a lot!!
Margin...a Little Word with a Big Impact!
Margin comes from plenty of blank space, both literally and metaphorically. Our physical and emotional space (or lack there of) impacts how we respond to the unexpected events that will inevitably come our way. I’ve heard margin described as “the space that separates us from our limits”. When we give ourselves room to breathe the world becomes a much healthier place.
Three Simple Strategies for Weight Loss That Don't Involve Counting Calories!
There was a point in time that 20 pounds snuck up on me. When I made the discovery, I did what everyone in the 1980’s would do (only this was 2002), I turned to Richard Simmons and his Food Mover. The Food Mover is a plastic “pocket book” with windows that you close when you’ve eaten a serving of fat, starch, fruit, vegetable etc. For example, if all my starch windows were closed, then I could not eat any more bread, pasta, potatoes etc. that day. As silly as it sounds, this plan worked; I lost the weight. It was successful for two key reasons, it was simple and gave me increased awareness. The following research-based strategies for loosing unwanted weight are simple and effective, while not requiring a person to carry a plastic “pocket book” around.
