1. Reduce Portion Sizes
- American’s eat portions that are approximately 2-3 times the size of those an average European does! So, just reduce the amount you put on that plate to begin with and you’ll be giving yourself a fighting start.
- Here is what things should look like (to give you a reference)

Check out my interview below with the amazing Tanya Tohill-Farber of The NEW Farber Center.
I got the chance to tour the facility recently – and that word really sounds strange to me now because the center is almost like a spa – incredibly beautiful, luxurious, calming and healing – exactly what a place of treatment and recovery should be but very rarely is. They really did a spectacular job! Read More

Ahhh back to school season. Kinda makes me think of the munchies and spending all nighters with a computer and much caffeine (wait, I do that now). The one thing that’s changed in my life though, is I spend the little extra on GOOD coffee and natural snacks these days, which makes me think hey, I don’t eat junk food at all, I eat only organic! J Ok, so I’m not perfect, picking only produce…and though I personally wouldn’t choose Cheetos Natural Puff White Cheddar Cheese Flavored Snacks (not because it doesn’t exactly sound like it came straight from the farmer’s market, but because I generally go for something from the actual health food section), I would expect if I DID pick that particular form of self indulgence, it would be um… NATURAL! But seems, like skincare, food isn’t to be trusted either.
The FDA strikes again, kiddies and you just can’t believe every label that includes “natural” on its flashy front panel.
Check out the link above to read all about it. But anyone who knows me knows what I’m about to say now, right? Read those labels! And, hmmm, “know your beauty®” doesn’t exactly apply here, but how about “know your FOOD”…?

Sour mixes are awful and horribly unhealthy to top it off…full of artificial ingredients, preservatives, flavorings, colorings and tons of sugar. I love the ones that say, “contains real fruit juice.” Wow! Seriously? You’re kidding! Say it isn’t so! I know personally from my years of bartending that the sweet and sour flavor in a drink is made mostly from a powder or gel concoction, which is why margaritas can sometimes be so high in calories.
OK that said, my favorite drink lately is a citrus margarita. Again, what to do? Well, like my skincare products, create my own! Here’s a great one you can feel good about indulging in. It’s light – at about 130 calories – Read More
