More quotes by 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
You can tell your kids they are perfect and don't need to change - which could cause insecurity when they recognize their own shortcomings - or tell them they are terrible, which would undermine their sense of self-worth and confidence. There's a happy middle ground.
Daphne Oz
I tried every diet under the sun and none of them worked but, more importantly, they were robbing me of my love of food.
Daphne Oz
I do what I do because my favorite thing is to learn.
Daphne Oz
Exercise is important, but exercise in a gym is not important. Go and take a walk outside. Skip the umpteenth coffee date and go for a hike instead. Take the stairs. Walk your errands.
Daphne Oz
I am proactive and looking to change my own behavior rather than others' - which is generally much more successful!
Daphne Oz
Food is medicine! We have forgotten that!
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.

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
Standards are what you hold for yourself, too. If I don't hold those standards with friends, colleagues, and lovers, I can't hold them to their relationships.
Daphne Oz
When I was young and growing up overweight, I believed the eaten was more powerful than the eater, meaning the food was more powerful than I was.

A gluten-free diet still allows you access to almost every fruit and vegetable, a variety of grains and legumes, your pick of dairy products, fresh meats and fish and a whole slew of special gluten-free delights to satisfy your pretzel-bagel-muffin-doughnut craving.
Daphne Oz
Make sure you eat whole foods that are good for your entire body. This doesn't mean that you can't enjoy your food or make room for plenty of indulgences. But your conscious goal has to be to eat for long term health and what you do most of the time is what really counts.
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.
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
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.
