When I was invited to attend the opening of a new wing of the hotel chain beaches in Turks & Caicos, I was truthfully excited about the complimentary much-needed vacation. That said, I had a pre-conceived notion of the "all-inclusive" resort concept. Beaches is
part of the Sandals chain...

Weekend events, special occasions, work trips or holiday weekends are always challenging when it comes to eating. Even I, whose job is to be healthy, have a difficult time at this, so it becomes a lesser of evil, do your best with the worst experience.

The first weekend of May,...

There's only so much I can risk

So I'm an action junkie. I know it. I've said it, and everyone who knows me knows it.

Is it because I grew up at the racetrack? I don't know. I have no clue whether the chicken or the egg came first. I...

Naturally Thin has begun to show you how to eliminate your food noise, be present, not beat yourself up, and truly do what you can do in your life -- no one else's and no ficticious tv or book character's life.

So now let's talk about exercise. Here's the...

My intention really was to write a blog about "what you don't see" on reality TV with regards to the editing. That was until I watched the Celebrity Apprentice tonight which was incredibly tragic.

I was on The Apprentice which was a much more intense version, given that we were...

One of the most important concepts in my book Naturally Thin unleash your skinny girl and free yourself from a lifetime of dieting is food noise.

I have to begin by saying "I love it!"

That isn't easy because it really is the Acela of train wreck television. Having been on the Martha Stewart Apprentice, I understand the game. Unlike the celebrities, though, we were sequestered for 2 months with no phone, TV, newspapers, credit...

Well, it is true. I am now a reality star.
