You’re probably familiar with the “out of sight, out of mind” tip for healthy eating: don’t keep cookies in the cupboard, and you won’t be tempted to eat cookies. This can really work to help you cut out mindless eating and avoid junk food temptation. But if you’re really serious about improving your diet quality, you’ll need to do more than toss your cookies (literally)—this is the time for a systematic overhaul of the contents of your fridge. Having a fridge full of whole, clean foods makes it easy to prepare delicious meals we feel great about and stay on... 
Will you be taking the breast augmentation plunge in the new year? Consider yourself virtually high-fived. No doubt you’re excited about the changes to come!

I recently sat down again with Melinda Mayo at KATV Good Morning Arkansas, and this time the subject was Millennials. While there are plenty of things today’s 20- and 30-somethings are credited for—from the popularity of avocado toast to their tendency to value life experiences over material possessions—we’ve noticed a few shared traits of our own among our Millennial cosmetic surgery patients here in Little Rock. Melinda and I discuss them in this video of our KATV segment, but I thought I’d take a minute to expand on a topic I get a lot of questions about from my younger...
