Hope you all had a great week!
In this week's newsletter you'll find out how my Diet Coke Detox is going (I''ve completed Day 23) and learn how to add some spice to your life (to enhance your health). And if you or a loved one has diabetes, you'll find a useful link to my recent caloriecount blog in which registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator Constance Brown-Riggs, my friend and esteemed colleague, shares her tips to help you make it through the holidays nutritiously and deliciously.
Hope you find some time to exercise and spend some time outdoors. The weather may be cooling, but we all need to keep moving to feel great (especially when the days are shorter).
Have a great week! Until next time,
Elisa

My Diet Coke Detox
For those who know me, you know Diet Coke was another appendage to me. Seldom could I be seen without a bottle or can of the chemical concoction in my hand. I finally decided to once and for all bite the bullet and forego my favorite fix. Read my story and be sure to add your thoughts on Fooducate.com. Adding Spice to Your Life Think they just add some flavor? Think again. Spices can be great additions to any meal, so read all about them on YouBeauty.com. |
Got Diabetes?
Think you can't enjoy holiday parties and get-togethers because you have diabetes? See how you can Say Yes (Without Stress) to Temptations of the Feast (Part 1) in my recent blog. These tips are sure to help you eat better even if you don't have diabetes.
Speaking of feasts, here are some amazing recipes from the New York Times just in time for Thanksgiving--they're vegetarian and packed with seasonal foods and some key nutrients to make the holiday one to remember deliciously.
