This past weekend, Elizabeth and I packed our (day) bags and headed out to visit Jess for a little Stay-cation day of R & R & Food. Obviously. What do 2 dietitians and 1 RD-to-be like to do for fun? Hit up Chili and Salsa festivals in New Hampshire, of course. We went to a hoppin’ [...]

If you’re a healthy living blogger, chances are you were glued to the Today Show Thursday morning at 8:35am to watch Caitlin Boyle’s interview on Operation Beautiful, and it was well worth it – she was fabulous!

Caitlin started the Operation Beautiful movement, inspiring people to end negative thoughts and fat talk, and transform the way [...]

This post is part of my July Vegan series as Featured Health Editor for FoodBuzz’ new sub-division, HealthBuzz.

When I tell people I eat a primarily meat and dairy free diet, they always ask…Well, what do you eat? I’m certainly never at a loss for what to eat, cook, or snack on so I thought [...]

Now that we’re back from an amazing trip to Italy, I’m so excited to share some or our Italian adventures on this blog but have some 500 photos to upload and organize before I do so. In the meantime, I want to share with you my debut in Fitness Magazine!
I’ve been eagerly waiting for the [...]

Today’s guest post is by my friend and future-dietitian Elizabeth, who wrote a powerful post about positive body image. I love this topic and think it does have a place on a food and nutrition blog. It’s so important to not only nourish our bodies on the inside with good food, but also avoid judging [...]

While I’m eating my way through Italy with Funk, I have some great guest posts lined up for you. This one is from Ann Dunaway Teh, a fellow registered dietitian based out of Atlanta.
My love affair with quinoa [keen-wah] started several years ago. I don’t even remember how we were first introduced. But I was [...]

I have been such a blog slacker, but with good reason! Last week I flew from the Food for your Whole Life symposium in NYC to the stunning Scottsdale, Arizona for the American Dietetic Association’s Leadership Institute. Jess and I headed there a few days early for some major R&R at the Intercontinental Montelucia. Seriously, [...]

You may remember my post about Healthy Habits Kitchen, a meal assembly kitchen, a few weeks ago. I’ve teamed up with HHK’s owner, Sue, and will be leading a three-part Weight Management Workshop Series open to fans of HHK and the general public (in the Wellesley, MA area).
This three-part Wednesday workshop series at Healthy Habits Kitchen [...]
