I know a person who spends hours working out every day - 6 days a week. He has been doing this for the last 60 days and has not lost a single lb. How is that possible? The answer is quite simple - he never changed his diet! When it comes to looking good and feeling good, healthy weight plays an important role and experts agree that a major factor is what you eat.

Don't I Ever Outgrow Adult Acne?

About Me View My Posts
When I think about what things were like when I was a teenager I can't help but make this strange expression that looks like something in between a smile and a grimace. I'm sure most of you make the same face. Being a teenager was fun, it was first loves and first tastes of freedom - but it was also greasy foreheads and relentless acne. When you finally grow out of those pimples you breathe a sigh... 4/5/2013 7:03:48 PM

Testing the Waters

About Me View My Posts
Tweens love to try new things, including dangerous, addictive drugs. Would you be able to tell if your kids were sampling drugs - and how would you respond if they were? I'd like to be able to tell you that teens don't use drugs. Unfortunately, that's not true. I wish I could assure you that tween - kids ages 9 to 12 - wouldn't think of using drugs. But I'd be lying. In my practice, I see tweens every... 4/5/2013 7:00:00 AM

About Me View My Posts
It's that time of year again... time to bake cookies, decorate gingerbread houses, and look forward to a good long post-turkey snooze.

This year with a big focus on creativity and one stop shopping I challenged myself not only purchase everything I need for a festive lunch and dinner, but to create a tablescape that also infuses the many resources of my local Stop & Shop grocery store.... 12/16/2012 5:27:27 PM

About Me View My Posts
Hanukkah, also known as the Festival of Lights, is a celebration of the rededication of the Holy Temple after it was reclaimed from the Syrian-Greeks more than 21 centuries ago. Fried foods are traditional fare during Hanukkah, commemorating the miracle of the Hanukkah oil that lasted eight days when it should have only last one. Here are some ideas and recipes on how to include your little ones in... 12/11/2012 9:27:05 AM
