Never let me slip, ‘cause if I slip, then I’m slipping’ — Dr. Dre It’s not a question of if you’re going to slip. It’s only a question of how quickly you recover. Chronic dieters chase perfection. Not us. We chase progress. We chase better than before. This is one reason

One of the best things you can do for your kids (and yourself) is to go all in when you play with them. The games change as they get older, but their recognition of your energy and presence doesn’t. That’s one of the main reasons I eat well and exercise. I want to have the

7 quotes I share with our clients who struggle with perfectionism (the last one is my fav): “Something is always better than nothing.” “Progress, not perfection.” “Make it exist, then make it better.” "All or nothing leads to nothing every single time." "Perfectionism

Meet Jordan. 45 pounds gone with MyBodyTutor! In his words, "Before MyBodyTutor, I thought things were OK. I was physically active—running a few times each week, doing yoga weekly, lifting weights, and riding my bike to and from work. I live in New York City, so walking is a

Meet Barb. 60 pounds gone with MyBodyTutor. In her words, “Before beginning MyBodyTutor, I tried many diets, fasting, and programs in the past. Being significantly overweight, it didn’t take much to become discouraged and soon give up. I was inactive with very limited exercise.

One of the hardest parts of parenting is telling your kids something they need to hear — even when they don’t want to hear it. Of course, there’s always a right time, place, and tone for these conversations. That goes without saying. But even so, I think many of us (myself

Original claim: "How we live from age 36 to 46 has the biggest impact on our future health." Whenever I see statements like this, a few thoughts come to mind: 1.) Exact citation needed. 2.) Picking a precise 10-year window as the most important seems arbitrary at best. That
