How do you Mind Your Body with what you eat?
I eat very well. I cook for my family every night. We eat a variety of things including chicken, fish, pork, lentils, all veggies, pasta, and salads. You name it we eat it—except salmon, which I find disgusting. Sorry, salmon.
What do you do to move your body?
I try to do a variety of physical activities. I spin, take classes at Barry’s Boot Camp, go to the gym, use home DVD’s of ChaLEAN Extreme workouts which I think are brilliant, and I run around after my three girls. Also, let’s be honest. The amount of laundry I do is an exercise in and of itself!
What could you do better for yourself?
I could sleep more, stress less, and take more time for just staring into space and decompressing. I could also worry less and have more faith that all is as it should be and all will be ok. I am just a big worrywart.
If you could undo one bad health habit, what would that be?
I like sugar, be it candy, this season’s pumpkin chocolate chip bars, or wine. Sugar is bad for me. It just sits on my tummy causing my middle child Esmé to ask if we are having a fourth baby. Rude! LOL!
How do you sustain a positive mental outlook, “get happy”?
I try to believe what my mother says: “This too shall pass.” Also, especially during the holidays, I love to cuddle with my daughters and watch really happy sappy Hallmark holiday movies. They just make me smile. Nothing bad ever happens in them.
How do you motivate someone you love to make a positive lifestyle change?
I don’t know that you can motivate someone to make any kind of change. One has to want to make a positive lifestyle change for themselves.
What one health condition would you most like to eradicate for everyone and why?
Cancer. My father died of brain cancer in 1991. I do not know anyone whose life has not been touched by the loss of a loved one to cancer. I wrote my book Gracefully Gone about my father’s fight and my struggle growing up with an ill parent. I wrote it to help others know they are not alone in this all-too-often insurmountable war against cancer.
Did you get good health genes?
So far so good, I hope. Each day I wake up grateful to just have another crack at it all. To do better, be better.
