I'm Tess, and I want to help you get healthy eating delicious food that you are your family are actually excited to eat! (Otherwise healthy habits just don't stick and we want to eat donuts and fries...right?!)

I'm a cook and author of The Blender Girl cookbooks with Penguin Random House, and the creator of The Decadent Detox® and Skinny60® health programs. Millions of people use The Blender Girl recipes, I've sold over 200,000 cookbooks, and over 30,000 people have used my programs to get healthy and stay healthy. I grew up on a conventional diet of meat and three veg, and enjoyed good health. Until I developed debilitating fatigue in my teens. I was finally diagnosed with Epstein-Barr virus. I tried what felt like a hundred different diets looking for ways to restore my health. The power of whole foods, smoothies, salads, soups, juicing, and other healthy recipes helped me gain my energy back! I enjoyed really good health and ate whatever I wanted and never put on any weight. (Yeah...one of "those" people) for most of my life. Until I turned 40, my hormones shifted, I was exhausted, I packed on over 30 pounds, and I looked like a puffed up blowfish. So, I cherry-picked the best parts of everything I tried, and in consultation with some of the best doctors and dietitians in the country, created The Decadent Detox® and Skinny60® systems. I lost over 35 pounds, I was sleeping through the night, and had more energy than I had ever had. So, I consulted with some of the top doctors and dietitians in the country to fine-tune this system for other people. So, I put a group of beta testers through the programs, and the results were incredible. (Watch the video testimonials on my websites.) Now that over 30,000 have used these systems to get healthy, lose weight, reduce, inflammation and aches and pains, improve their gut health and digestion, lower their blood pressure and cholesterol, regulate their blood sugar, sleep through the night, gain more energy, and get glowing skin, I have the data: These programs WORK. What is the secret? REALLY AMAZING FOOD. That is why people do my programs and keep coming back with their friends and family. Because the food is healthy and also DELICIOUS. My superpower is putting mind-blowing flavors together! Every recipe has to look beautiful, be nutrient-dense, make you swoon with every bite, and leave you dreaming about having it again. So, basically, I create every recipe like it's our last meal on earth, and I'm cooking for George Clooney! When you love the food you're eating, it is easier to stick to healthy habits for long-term changes. My team of dietitians and I help thousands of people every month get healthy and improve their quality of life. We want to help YOU! Read my full story: https://www.theblendergirl.com/about/

Make sensational vegetarian meals without a lot of fuss with Amy Chaplin - chef and James Beard-award-winning cookbook author. 🎉
Amy and I track her food journey, from a childhood in rural Australia raised in a homesteader family that lived off the land and made everything from scratch, to Sydney's food scene and getting into macrobiotics, pastry chef in Amsterdam, caterer in London, and executive chef at New York’s Angelica Kitchen. ✅
Every phase of her evolution, her philosophy has stayed the same: start with quality ingredients, cook with the seasons, keep things simple, and have fun with food. ❤️
She takes us through her basics: stock the pantry with staples, grow food for ourselves (even if it’s just a pot of herbs), activate ingredients, combine them for better textures and flavors, elevate quick bowls and salads with a touch of magic, and get creative with your leftovers. 🍲
From there, Amy gives us her tips for intuitive cooking—draw inspiration from sources around you, and tap into your environments and moods. She goes on to share how being a mom and cooking for kids has taught her to be even more simple and flexible. 💃
Her approach: Experiment with the ingredients that are speaking to you, listen to what your body and family want, and enjoy the discoveries! 🙌🎈
Get all of Amy's tips in episode 72 on the It Has To Be Me website or on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.

Do sugar cravings and food addictions rule your life? Liz, Susan, and Kim share how the 60-Day Reset was the key to breaking cycles of emotional eating and achieving their greatest health. 🎉🎈🙌🏻
Susan’s sweet tooth caught up with her and, after “a swift kick” from her doctor, she leaned into her love of cooking, and started eating food that tasted so delicious, the hankering for cookies and ice cream disappeared. The immediate positive changes she saw in her body made staying on the path easy. ❤️
Unlike Susan, Liz wasn’t much of a cook. Years of binging on processed foods to cope with her daughter’s murder left Liz obese and unable to participate in family events the way she wanted. Learning to prepare healthy meals gave Liz a sense of pride—she could finally enjoy good food that was also good for her! In her 70s, she feels better than ever. ✅
For Kim, food was the enemy, and with crippling addiction, she couldn’t gain control. At 200 pounds and with serious medical issues, she was living like a hermit, and hadn’t dated in 20 years. She leveraged the nutrition coaching and peer support to lose 65 pounds, and claim the quality of life she wanted. 💪
These ladies lay it all out there: the guilt of eating in secret, the shame spiral of failed diets, the loneliness and limitations of hiding—and the freedom and empowerment they achieved when they chose change and made it happen. ❤️
Community support, and the candor and sensitivity of people sharing similar struggles, helped Liz, Susan, and Kim stay on track with better choices. The draw of the vitality they felt was stronger than their previous addictions to food. This seismic shift launched a tsunami of positive changes in their lives. 💓
The extraordinary things that happened when these ladies decided “It has to be me” will blow your mind.
