A new nutrition client who “doesn’t really eat sweets” had sugar lurking in her day. Most of us do.

In honor of Halloween, I computer the number of candy corn she was unknowingly eating.

I love this video, thank you to Beth for the fun visuals.

This was my first time in Santa Fe and it’s not like anywhere else. ➡️
It’s vibrant but not chaotic. I loved the colors, my favorite earthy colors, and flavors and the energy (and I’m not someone who talks energy).

We packed a lot into a few days:
We loved @Rosewood Inn of the Anasazi
For meals
@lemamasantafe and @dolinasantafe for lunch
@cafe_pasquals @palomarestaurant @leossantafe for dinner
Leos was one of the best meals I’ve ever had.

We did a great walking tour with Paul at Mountain High
And we got up early Saturday morning for the @santafefarmersmarket, there’s also a crafts market.
The Georgia Okeefe museum @ofeekemuseum was fantastic, we wanted to see her house outside Santa Fe but reservations were booked.
I loved everything about Canyon Road, especially @cielohandcrafted

We happened to be here when the world’s largest hot air balloon event @balloonfiesta was happening in Albuquerque
So…we woke up at 4am, drove over an hour, walked to a giant field, while it was still dark and magic ensued.

I’m not often a repeat visitor but I come back ot New Mexico and Santa Fe.

Thank you all for your suggestions, I have a master list if anyone is interested. by @foodtrainers

The best places are hard to get to!

I’ve wanted to see White Sands ever since I first saw pictures of it. I have a @davidbenjaminsherry image of it hung in my office. But it isn’t easy to get to.

And then my mom and I were planning a fall trip. My mom has traveled far and wide, farther and wider than I have. I said “what about New Mexico?” My mom had never been and Marc hadn’t either.

But even once we planned on New Mexico, White Sands is tricky to get to. We flew into El Paso, TX. And yesterday morning we drove a little over an hour to White Sands. We got there early, before the crowds.

My mom and I explored the dunes and laughed as we tried to capture this place. Of course she did a better job than I did. Marc had to make some calls (see pic ➡️) but that’s par for the course and we laughed about that too.

And then we hit Hatch, NM. I felt I had to visit the chili capital of the world? But in retrospect maybe not 😂 I did have a delicious matcha with chili peppers. I generally object to adulterating matcha but this was fantastic.

We drove north from Hatch. I think it was North but I could be wrong. We’re outside of Albuquerque. We head to Santa Fe today.

Comment and let me know the places you’ve always wanted to go, favorite National Park or Santa Fe suggestions. by @foodtrainers

If you’ve ever felt dismissed by a doctor, this post is for you.

My thoughts on the new ferritin guidelines and how to advocate for lab tests, when it’s necessary. by @foodtrainers

Eat your skincare!

I’m here to deinfluence you from buying another batch of ‘miracle skincare products.’

Here’s what I suggest…
And what I’ve noticed is that my skincare experts (@joannaczechofficial @drdorisday) never recommend a million products and steps. Less is more and your diet makes a big difference.

And don’t worry. I’m not wasting a spoonful of my beloved @ireneforte night cream 🤣 by @foodtrainers
