“Don’t dance around the perimeter of the person you want to be.” ~ Gabrielle Bernstein
Found this quote the other day while trying to be inspirational on Instagram. (Was I, who knows?) It struck a chord with me. So many of the patients who come to see me for individual counseling have all these goals: health, weight, career, etc. And yet, so many times, many of them don’t quite get exactly where they want to be. Why is that; what actually gets in their way? Fear of failure? Fear of change? Perhaps a feeling deep down that they don’t deserve it? Before we can reach any of our goals we have to find the strength for failure. From failure stems growth, and from growth stems achievement. And then little by little anything is possible.

15 Food Hacks That Make Packaged Foods Healthier – NBC News Better
Love when patients say, “I don’t eat any packaged foods!” Really? As if all packaged foods should be off limits, all the time. Honestly, I love foods that can make my life easier, especially when still nutritious. Wouldn’t you? Thanks to my RDN pal Samantha Cassetty for asking me and some of my wonderful colleagues for tips to make life a little less hectic.

What Is Oat Milk and Is It Healthy – Shape Magazine
And it never ends. Just when I thought I knew of all the plant-based alternative “milk” beverages available a new one enters my life. Hello oat milk. You know I tend to be a little skeptic when it comes to some new products but have to admit this one does have some pluses. Don’t get me wrong, not saying you should stop drinking regular cows milk if you already do, BUT it can be another nutritious option.

What Is Coffee Flour? Here’s The Deal With The New “Superfood” – Men’s Health
OK, I can now go back to being skeptic. Phew! Coffee flour – not convinced you are the “superfood” that some people have you racked up to be. Hey, nothing wrong with trying it, supposedly has a mild, nutty flavor, but not sure why you would opt for it over a 100% whole grain flour? That is unless you have celiac disease and are looking for more flour options in your diet. But if you think you will catch a caffeine buzz from it, you’ll probably be disappointed.
