The "Non-Diet Dietitian"

Ever wonder who the person is behind the words and recipes? Get the lowdown on the moms and dads who bring YMC to life.
 
Sarah Remmer is a 'non-diet' dietitian who believes good nutrition doesn't mean perfection. She's also a mother, a wife and a lover of chocolate, red wine, coffee and pretty much all foods, and one day hopes to become remotely as amazing a cook as her Mom.

 

Parenting is...
I can’t choose one word or phrase… Sometimes it feels like running a marathon all uphill and sometimes it feels like a rollercoaster. It’s unpredictable, emotional, exhausting, heart wrenching, amazing, and the best feeling ever.   
 
In my spare time, I like to...
Play/cuddle with kids, practice yoga, run, take an exercise class, relax and watch Netflix, read, shop.
 
When do you feel your best? 
When my schedule is full, but not too full; when my kids are happy; when I’m on the beach somewhere tropical with a yummy drink and book in hand; when I feel connected to my husband; and when I’ve been physically active. 
 
If someone wrote a biography about you, what would be the title?
Sarah Remmer: The Multi-Tasking Mommy  
 
What's currently in your purse?
I’m embarrassed to say that it’s a disaster. A diaper, an old soother, receipts, my wallet, 3 lipsticks, hand lotion, keys, phone, earphones 
 
What superhero power would you like to have?
I’d love to be able to know what others are thinking (mind reading?). This would come in handy when my baby is crying uncontrollably and I can’t figure out why, and when my toddler is having an epic tantrum for no apparent reason. 
 
If we gave you an elephant, where would you hide it?
In my crawl space maybe? 
 
What's something everyone would be surprised to know about you? 
I’m really short- 5.1 Ft (most people are quite surprised when they see me in person!)
 
Special talents? 
Master swaddler: I can swaddle any baby and have them sleeping soundly in no time. 
 
Favourite book? 
Right now? Come Away With Me By Karma Brown.
 
Chips or Chocolate? 
CHOCOLATE, hands down
 
You can pick ONE thing that would guaranteed to be completed from your bucket list. What is it? 
Living in a tropical place with my family for a period of time.
