"The Dorm Room Diet" Daphne Oz
Today’s the last day to enter The Dorm Room Diet “Get A Tip, Give A Tip” contest for a chance to receive a free copy of the book written by Daphne Oz with a forward by her father and daytime TV host, Dr. Mehmet Oz.
To enter, simply leave a comment on this post giving your tip for staying healthy. Be sure to also check out our exclusive interview with Daphne.
In The Dorm Room Diet, Daphne writes about “Danger Zones” or situations where you may be tempted to eat unhealthy high sugar, high fat and low nutrient foods like while watching TV, studying or working late at night or in social situations. One way to counter this is by eating berries during these times.
“They take time to eat, come in small pieces, and are sweet enough to curb sugar cravings,” Daphne writes.
Don’t forget to buy berries organic whenever possible, as some of them, like blueberries and strawberries, are on the dirty dozen list of produce that contains the highest levels of pesticide residue.
And that’s the final tip of the day. What’s yours?

Leave a bag of your favorite health snack on the countertop. I usually leave a bag of almonds in the kitchen, so when I’m craving something in the afternoon, I can conveniently grab it. It’s a good way of not overeating and also staying healthy with the right food choices.

I go to the local farmer’s market every week to buy my veggies and fruits. The food is fresh and inexpensive, and the farmers are supported by the community. It’s a win-win situation!

It’s a meal that many people skip, but I eat breakfast every day. It’s important to have your nutrients at the start of the morning to energize your body.

If I am really craving something I know may not be soo healthy (a pound of pasta slathered in olive oil, salt, and nooch), I try to come up with a way to make it healthier, such as sub for 1 serving of pasta: 1/3 whole wheat or brown rice pasta, 1/3 peas and 1/3 tomatoes, then olive oil, nooch, handful of spinach, etc.
give yourself what you want, but less, and make it healthy. You don’t NEED a bucket of pasta, but you can eat a large bowl of the good stuff, when there is only enough to hit your craving, but also get in your veg. 🙂
