My dad, who is a heart surgeon, works with many adult patients who did not take good care of their bodies in their formative years. He is able to teach them how to break old eating and exercise habits and reshape their bodies, but not without a great deal of resistance.

I tried every diet under the sun and none of them worked but, more importantly, they were robbing me of my love of food.

Worrying is just a prayer for the worst possible scenario.

I am inspired by working moms. Mothers who somehow balance the demands of their many lives - professional, familial, personal, and interior - and still manage to make time to have fun and invest in themselves! This is a huge challenge that I look forward to taking on.
Daphne Oz
Fun for me is to take what I learn and teach others in a way that is accessible and applicable in their own lives.
Daphne Oz
If you have expectations, you try to put your standards on someone else's behavior. The fact is you can't control anyone but yourself, so creating standards, as opposed to expectations, keeps the ball in your court.
Daphne Oz
I was a good 30 pounds overweight throughout high school, and it wasn't until I was going away to college that I really wanted to make sure I was doing everything possible to feel as confident as I could.
Daphne Oz
Tell your kids they are perfect the way they are, but they shouldn't stay where they are forever because growing, testing the limits, and evolving make life better and more fulfilling.
Daphne Oz
We can try to reform healthcare, but the fact is if we don't have a healthy food source, we are only treating the symptoms and not the problems.
Daphne Oz
I get to help people create lives that make them happier and healthier than they were yesterday. I knock on wood that my family is healthy and happy and love each other.
