The holidays can be a stressful time for anyone but, when you’re struggling to eat well or manage your weight, you might feel like the world is out to get you.

Eating after supper. Should you or shouldn’t you? What should you have? Does it make you gain weight? No food after 8 p.m. Or is it 7 p.m? People ask me these questions almost daily. Honestly, I find all the food rules I hear exhausting.

Do you ever feel like you could eat better if someone would just tell you what to eat? Several times a week people tell me they’ll eat well if I just tell them what to do.

Clients often tell me, “You name it, I’ve tried it.” They have spent significant amounts of time — and money — on the latest and greatest diets, plans and products in their attempts to lose weight.

March is Nutrition Month and this year’s campaign focuses on eating well at work.
