Too Busy To Diet

Hi friends! I know, I've been away for a very, very long time. This has been my longest hiatus yet. I have to admit that I lose motivation when I'm wrapped up in school, and it sucks! I now have a month-long break, and all I want to do blog. I  miss blogging for fun. The Little Jogger changed my life. It made me realize how much I missed writing, and it made me feel confident enough to apply for nutrition graduate programs. There is no looking back! I may take long breaks, but I don't think that I will ever stop writing!

Believe it or not, most of my nutrition friends and I only have one year to go until we can sit for our R.D. exam. Once we pass, we can WORK! Remember when I had a full-time job and made enough money to pay rent and buy cute clothes? Holy SHOOT, do I miss that! I'll have to write a post (for those of you who care) about the R.D. process and what you have to do to get your degree and registration. It's a lot of work! 

Here's me and my nutrition friends on Thursday at brunch after our last final of the semester:

We were a happy bunch of girls who were glad to be done writing our papers and studying for exams (at least for a month). 

Speaking of writing, I had the most outstanding opportunity last semester that I will likely continue to do for the rest of the academic year. I've been in charge of social media for a blog and a Facebook and Twitter page that promotes a book written by two dietitians called Too Busy To Diet. It's geared towards busy professionals who want to live a healthy lifestyle and need shortcuts for meal planning, healthy recipes, etc. The chapters are short, and you could probably get through the book in a day.

This book has info on fad diets, detox diets, exercise, cholesterol, fiber, meal planning, eating on the run, traveling, eating out, sugar, super foods, and that's just a taste of what it offers. It includes full meal plans in the appendix (30 breakfasts, 28 lunches, and 35 dinners). There's also more than 10 pages dedicated to snacks. 

This book is heavily researched and has been reviewed by other dietitians, doctors, and personal trainers. Monica and Jackie also have years and years of dietetic practice under their belt. I believe in this book, otherwise I would not mention it here!

If you want a copy (in paper or for your Kindle), you can get it on Amazon.com here. If you want to see what I've been up to with the social media, "like" the Facebook page, follow us on Twitter, or read the blog. It says that all of the blog posts are by Jacqueline, but that ones I wrote say in the first line that they were written by me (Jennifer Martin). I update the Facebook and Twitter page 5 days a week. I give you FREE nutrition advice! Who wouldn't want that?!? 

So I have been cheating on The Little Jogger, but I swear it's for a good cause. 

I'm so excited to have extra free time for TLJ!

Likes enormously improve the recognition from the site site and with the many correct wide variety count; many men and women will be captivated to your account. The corporations that provide these methods, will supply you with non-automated or robot likes and provide you with serious Instagram likes. The nice matter relating to this is they could be right away sent to the account which implies you will not have to go to that a fantastic offer. And if you are a company, rising your Instagram likes may be worthwhile.

    I am  a Chicago-based Registered Dietitian working primarily in Acute Clinical Care. I started this blog in 2010, before I even knew that I wanted to be an RD! Now, as an active dietitian, this blog will become part of my life again. Read about my current healthy habits, but please peruse my old posts (from 2014 and before) to read about life as an RD student and my previous years in Australia!
