I am doing what I am supposed to be doing right now. I smile knowing that I have the most wonderful husband, family, and friends. I work with friends whom I can learn from and whom I respect and who respect me.

While fad diets might seem like the quick-fix solution to lose weight, they won't help you get healthy in the long run.

I didn't grow up eating meat - I was a vegetarian until I was 18.

If we make wholesome, healthy food accessible and affordable for everyone, we make the choice to be healthy an easy one.

When I was young and growing up overweight, I believed the "eaten" was more powerful than the "eater," meaning the food was more powerful than I was.

We can try to reform healthcare, but the fact is if we don't have a healthy food source, we are only treating the symptoms and not the problems.

A wholesome family is one where there is a lot of love. It's living by example. It's acceptance of people at their core, but it's also pushing each other to be our best selves and try things we might not be good at.
