Breaking Down BMI
As a former nutrition student, part of my curriculum was to become familiar with different means of body measurements. These range from simple height and weight, to a super expensive space-ship look alike machine that measures air movement through the body called the “BOD POD”. If you haven’t already guessed, machines like this one are… Continue reading Breaking Down BMI
Magnesi-YUM-
One of the things I love about my friends is that we are all equally weird. If you need proof, just today I texted my dietetics friends and asked what their favorite vitamin and/or mineral was… and I was being completely serious. I know you’re dying to know everyone’s answers, so I’ll fill you in: Kailee:… Continue reading Magnesi-YUM-
Bottom’s Up
I went to a Bachelorette party last weekend where I got to see a lot of my friends from high school. Not only was it great to reconnect with them all, but it was also my first time out as a 21-year-old in the city. I’m the baby of our friend group, so finally feeling… Continue reading Bottom’s Up
Advice from my Eighteen Year-Old Self

It’s definitely a lot of work and makes me appreciate all of the people who work in food service full-time. There’s different rotations as a part of the class… Continue reading Letting Go of Control
Here’s the Tea on Satiety
In my post about Intuitive Eating I mentioned that I would later return to the topic of fullness versus satiety. That’s what I’m doing today! Before I begin, I feel like it’s necessary to explain what satiety is. Simply put, satiety, or being satiated, is the feeling of being satisfied after eating. “Satisfied”, meaning that you don’t feel… Continue reading Here’s the Tea on Satiety
Getting “Back on Track”
When I was six, I was a flower girl in my aunt and uncle’s wedding. At the reception, I kind of stole the show with my air guitar moves, and the crowd loved it. So as a natural born performer, I took it up a notch and slid around on the ground until I broke… Continue reading Getting “Back on Track”
