Well, it’s already the last day of the first month of 2026. Luckily I don’t have to brave icy roads to get to the runfessional at Marcia’s Healthy Slice. Join me as we cleanse our souls soles before we head into the second month of the year.
You also may be joining the Fit Five Friday Link-Up with Darlene, Michelle, Renée, and Jenn.
By the time this goes live we’ll have more insight into just what the storm has in store for us. 12 hours out they are calling for 5”-9” snow followed by 1/4”-1/2” ice with temperatures staying in the 20s all week. 🥶

In case Google brought you here, I am going to start this post with a disclaimer: I am not a registered dietician and I do not have any formal training in nutrition sciences. I do have a background in science and some knowledge of FDA law, and have pursued a personal interest in nutrition to navigate my own health issues.
So, I really want to talk about the new USDA 2026 Dietary Guidelines!
Otherwise known as the upside-down pyramid?
If I missed you at our January coffee date—Happy New Year! I like how the holiday fell towards the end of the week so I have time to ease into the new year before I have to jump back into work on Monday.
Do you have your new calendars and planners yet?
