3 Tips for a Healthy Beach Trip
Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve posted a blog! I don’t like using “busy” as an excuse for anything really. But sometimes other things just take precedence over posting a blog.

I Went Keto for 30 Days.
Well, closer to 28ish, but 30 is just so much more dramatic. But yes! I went Keto! And I will probably get a few eyerolls from my fellow dietitians. In fact, I already have. I told an RD friend and she said, “Ugh, not a fan.” And then I treaded a bit more lightly withRead more
