Bethenny Frankel built her food and beverage line and all her branding around being thin. She has a few books with tips and recipes about it, and she loves talking about it too. Its not easy to stay thin in your late 40s, if thats something youre striving for, as the pounds creep on over the years and small amounts can add up. I get it and I work on that too, I just find it superficial as hell. (I mean I know Im that way, its just not my main focus in life.) US Magazine asked Bethenny at an event for holiday diet tips. She started off well and said that you shouldnt be on a strict diet and should indulge reasonably. Some of her other advice was decent too, but of course she said disparaging things about eating and gaining weight because thats how she is.
?I?m a fan of indulging,? [Bethenny Frankel] told Us ?I think people are always told how to restrict and my feeling is you have to teach people how to indulge. It?s OK to have some cake, it?s OK to have some cookies. If you?re getting buckets of popcorn and brownies, choose how you?re going to invest ? the way you invest in shopping, the way you invest in money. You don?t go and just buy everything, you just pick your spots. So, that?s how people should handle the holidays.?
For Frankel, it?s more harmful to have a strict diet during the holiday season because it can lead to unhealthy binging. ?You say you?re going to be drinking green juice and eating steamed vegetables for the holiday season, you?re going to eat five times the amount and blow up like a tick,? she told Us.
She advised people to eat before attending holiday parties ?otherwise you?ll be grabbing every hors d?oeuvre.? When it comes to sipping festive cocktails, Frankel urged partygoers to drink water in between drinks to avoid overeating while buzzed. ?It?s a marathon, not a sprint, the holiday season. Can?t call in full the next day,? Frankel said.
The Skinnydipping author added that cheat meals aren?t in her vocabulary because she doesn?t ?think it?s cheating.? Instead, she believes the word can cause people to not achieve their diet goals.
?I eat everything,? Frankel said. ?If you think it?s called cheating, then you beat yourself up for it, then you rebel, then it?s a vicious cycle. My book, Naturally Thin, is all about ?treat your diet like a bank account.?

I tend to eat a lot at parties because the food is great and I dont drink anymore so I may as well eat. I cant get on board with this pre-eating thing, thats assuming the food I have at home is better than typical party food and it never is! It sounds like Bethenny doesnt care about that at all. However I do treat my diet like a bank account and eat less the rest of the day because I know Im going to have a lot at one event. I also agree with her that you shouldnt have cheat foods or forbidden foods. As I often mention, I count calories and its easier to keep a balance when you know how much youre eating and what you have left. Plus then you dont have to give up entire categories of foods. That seems like misery to me. Thats Bethennys default setting though so it probably doesnt matter what she eats.

Here are some photos from last night?s CMA Awards, one of the many country-music award shows throughout the year. Even though I watched the entire Ken Burns? Country Music documentary, I still can?t tell country music awards-shows apart. They?re all the same? Probably not. I do think the CMAs are a big deal, but? who even knows. Anyway, Miranda Lambert was there with her young former cop husband Brendon. Miranda wore Tony Ward not her best look but far from her worst.
Nicole Kidman in Versace with Keith Urban. I actually like this dress a lot, weirdly enough. I mean, it?s sort of orange-y and the design is strange, but it looks great on her. I wish she had styled it differently, and I wish her hair was a lot different.

For a writer/blogger, I am bad at most word games. Scrabble leaves me cold. Words With Friends can eat it. Crosswords are the worst! My mind just doesn?t work that way. So occasionally, I do watch Wheel of Fortune, one of the dumbest shows out there but one which has survived because of dummies like me (honestly, I prefer Jeopardy because rando trivia is totally my jam and that?s definitely the way my mind works). Whenever I do watch Wheel of Fortune, I?m amazed that Vanna White still gets paid a huge amount of money to walk back and forth across a stage, lightly tapping letters which light up. It?s a great gig for her and she?s clung to it for 37 years. Vanna?s success is partly due to the fact that she never looked a gift horse in the mouth she knew it was a sweet gig and she never really looked to move beyond it. With Pat Sajak out of WoF for a medical emergency, Vanna has been filling in as host of WoF. So People Magazine decided to do a nice little profile of her. She honestly sounds like a lovely person.
Wheel of Fortune?s Vanna White has been a co-host of the show for 37 seasons (and counting!), but in a few weeks, she?ll take on the role of main host, filling in for Pat Sajak, who had to undergo emergency surgery for a blocked intestine. It?s safe to say that White, 62, has prayed for her colleague?s speedy recovery. ?I grew up religious,? she recently told PEOPLE during a sit-down at her Beverly Hills home. ?I was baptized a Baptist, and I?ve always had my own personal relationship with God.?
The South Carolina-born beauty queen, who landed the Wheel of Fortune gig when she was just 25 after moving to L.A. to continue her modeling career, said she grew up going to church and Sunday school each week. And while she identifies as a Christian, she never likes to preach about it.
?I don?t preach, because everyone?s entitled to their own beliefs,? she shared. ?I don?t judge anyone for whatever religion they are. This is my religion and I speak openly about it, but again, I would never preach.? Still, she firmly believes in the power of prayer. ?I pray every day,? she said.
White said prayer, plus the support she?s received from Wheel fans, has helped her through darker times, like when she lost her fianc in a plane crash in 1986. ?I heard from so many people who had shared the same experience of losing someone instantly in an accident, and that really helped me,? she told PEOPLE. ?I didn?t feel like I was alone. Because when something like that happens, you immediately think you?re the only one.?
She also turned to her faith and her fans when she miscarried her first child just a week after announcing it via a puzzle on the set of the show. ?Obviously I lost the baby, which was devastating after announcing it. The good news is I was able to get pregnant again and had two beautiful, healthy children. ? But losing a child ? there?s nothing good about that,? she told PEOPLE.
While White will only be hosting the show briefly as Sajak recovers before returning to her regular role as letter-turner, she said she has no intention of leaving her beloved job anytime soon. ?We?re one big family,? she said of the Wheel of Fortune cast and crew. ?It?s wonderful.?

?I don?t preach, because everyone?s entitled to their own beliefs.? Refreshing. She?s basically a small-town Southern Baptist who has lived in LA for long enough to know that she should keep her nose out of other people?s business. And truly, she?s getting paid millions of dollars to saunter around on stage and that?s it! Bless her. She?s absolutely harmless.
