Anyone that knows me knows I love my ice cream. One of the ways I keep it in check is by always eating it out of a regular sized coffee mug (not the big mama-jamas I pour my caffeine in to). Same goes for cereal, chips or popcorn to nibble on; anything that would normally go in a bowl gets sized down to the coffee mug.
The same works with plates, a salad plate vs. a dinner plate. Case in point, crab cakes. I made some and had two for lunch yesterday. Two crab cakes on a dinner plate look sad and tiny, the same two on a salad plate look much more robust and satisfying. It's a head game, I know, but one that makes for an easy win.
Fitness, food, & writing are my passions, so of course, a blog. As a certified personal trainer in Napa, where food is an art form, I want to eat it, enjoy it, & still be able to get in to my jeans. Anti diet, pro healthy lifestyle. I've spent the last 20 yrs teaching about food & fitness, researching, & writing about it, so I've got a lot to say. I believe in balance; don't forget to do your pushups, & if you love 'em, by all means, enjoy some pancakes!
