Recipe: Fruity Curry Chicken Salad

This is one of my favorite “go-to” recipes.  I usually will always have the ingredients in this recipe on hand and when I can’t find anything else to make, this is an easy choice.

It’s also great as a “to-go” recipe as it travels well in a small cooler.  And if you add it on a bed of lettuce, it can become a complete meal full of protein (bodily fuel for cell and tissue maintenance), fats (for satiation and brain health) and carbs (for energy) without a lot of muss or fuss.

Whoever came up with the idea that curry and […]

hCG Success: Karen and Bill

Working one on one with Biz has been extremely helpful.

My husband & I discovered hCG over 2 years ago. You’d think we would be pros by now … but we have found that we benefit greatly from Biz’s experience with hCG and her expert coaching. Without Coach Biz’s help we would have trouble maintaining. She has explained exactly what foods to eat & what to avoid. She was there when we slipped up & encouraged us to stay with it.  I’ve done P3’s on my own, but with her guidance I have learned much more about how to maintain […]

Support: Practice “Pattern Interrupt”!

It’s been quite a ‘pattern interrupt’, a massive change of the old programming. ~ Kenny Loggins

“Pattern Interrupt” is a term that I was presented with in one of my recent coaching retreats.  It hit me like a ton of bricks.  In the fact finder world I live in, I had to go straight to the internet to discover what this technique meant, and how it could benefit me and my clients in our weight control journeys.

I have been simply amazed at what I have found out.

Pattern Interrupt is as simple as what Kenny Loggins says above: a massive change […]

Recipe: Black Bean Chili

Chili.  Yum.

There are all sorts of recipes for chili’s available.  It’s a long standing recipe that people have made their own for decades.

I never liked chili growing up because I never liked kidney beans.  I didn’t realize until much later in life that chili can mean almost anything!

Over the years, I tend to enjoy white chili’s more than red, however, this is one that I always come back to.  But then again, I happen to really love black beans.  ::giggle::

What is totally awesome about chili is that even though it’s not “high fat” on it’s own, you can make it […]

Recipe: Sashimi Phase 2 Style

People sometimes get the words SASHIMI and SUSHI mixed up.

  • Sashimi:  Raw meat, most often fish.
  • Sushi:  Vinegar and sugared rice with other ingredients, usually fish, and maybe some vegetables and most often wrapped in seaweed

Way back when I did a round of Phase 2 using all raw foods, sashimi was almost a daily occurrence, and I have to say that the round was one of the best rounds I ever had on protocol.

There are those of you out there that get a little grossed out with the thought of raw fish in general, sorry for that, you […]

Support: Clean Fats on Phase 2

I speak a lot about clean fats in my coaching.  Whenever I mention it, the next question is usually, “What do you consider to be a clean fat?”

That depends.

The eBook I wrote recently (Good Food Hunting) goes into detail about the whole high-fat program that I encourage for maintenance.

But did you know “clean” fats have a place in P2 as well?  Yes, fats on P2!

Now, before you go and shake your head in disbelief, I have found in over 5 years of being associated with The hCG Protocol […]

News: Out With The Old, In With The New

Get Busy Living, or Get Busy Dying. ~ Shawshank Redemption

Ever feel like this?

Come on, you know you have.

More than a year and a half ago, I felt like this when I released the first issue of The Biz Buzz.  Whew, that seems like a lifetime ago now!

Funny thing, I feel like this again!  ::giggle::

With growth, there is always a bit of struggle (translate: PAIN) involved.  Just this past week my baby girl was complaining about her legs hurting again.  Each time she has complained about her legs hurting, means she is in line for another growth spurt.

With growth comes some […]

Recipe: Black Bean and Peach Salsa

Whoever invented salsa should be crowned King of the World!  I am serious!  There are so many delectable things you can do with salsa, and my latest obsession seems to be focused on fruit salsas.  I don’t know what it is, but the combination of sweet and hot is just YUM when it comes to salsa.  This recipe is no exception.

Peaches are plentiful this time of year, but the season is coming to a close.  🙁

We have several “on the side of the road” markets up and down our main drag, and the other day one of them had peaches […]
