How much time are YOU spending in fight-or-flight mode? How strong is YOUR negativity bias? How can we spend less time fight-or-flighting and more time resting-and-digesting? The dietitians and Maria discuss positive self-talk, empathy, self-awareness, and ways to relax your brain and body to allow more space for positivity.

    Healthy Holiday Tips

    Healthy Holiday Tips

    The holidays are a joyful time of year filled with family, friends, parties, cheesy Christmas movies, and of course- delicious foods, sweets, and beverages. It’s a time when we put aside our woes… and sometimes our nutrition and fitness routines. A 2015 study by Harvard University found that Americans eat -on average- an excess of 200 calories per day within the 5 week period leading up to New Year’s- causing an average weight gain of 4.5 pounds. A piece of pie here, some eggnog there, cookie before bed, a candy cane after lunch… That doesn’t sound like much, but it adds up quickly. And few people shed the weight post-holidays as quickly as they put it on. So if you’ve been successful thus far on your health journey to maintain or lose weight, how can you still enjoy the holiday festivities without feeling like you have deprived yourself or jumped ship in nutrition and exercise? We are here to help!

Learning and Accountability

I see one of the dietitians on this podcast monthly, but listening to these podcasts are like free check-ins and reminders each time I listen. I always learn so much from the information in the podcasts, and it also helps to hold me accountable with staying consistent with my goals!
