On this Episode of Meeting Pros:

Christophe Le Metayer with Christophe’s To Go

“Cooking requires a light head, a generous spirit, and a big heart,” according to Chef Christophe Le Metayer, who brings all three to his innovative new venue, Christophe’s To Go (www.christophestogo.com). Born in France and classically trained in the culinary arts, Chef Christophe has been following his passion for food and cooking for nearly three decades. Throughout his career he has developed a unique, globally inspired culinary style with the belief that “Great food is not ephemeral. It becomes part of you, influencing your emotions, thoughts, and sense of wellbeing.” As he cooks daily, he is inspired and driven by the opportunity, “to change an everyday moment into an unforgettable, sensual memory.”

Beginning at his critically acclaimed Saint Martin restaurant in Paris and continuing internationally, Christophe has dedicated his life to pursuing the ideal harmonious blend of science and artistry in the kitchen that demands precision but also creative inspiration and artistic flair. At the Ritz-Carlton Buckhead and Field Good in Alpharetta, he further honed his unique style of healthful, gourmet food that he now brings to Atlanta-area homes with Christophe’s To Go.

In a world of overly elaborate, sometimes excessive cuisine, Christophe’s understated approach is pure, “Keep food simple and beautiful and it will stir all of the senses, reawakening a primal bond with the natural world.”

Kimberly Pierson with Jalee Catering on behalf of The Southern Classic Food and Beverage show

On Saturday, August 31, 2013, Labor Day Weekend, 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM at the Rialto Center for the Arts, don’t miss the opportunity to sample foods and beverages from restaurants, chefs, caterers, bakeries and beverage companies in Atlanta and a few other areas.

Weight Loss: An Integrated Approach

00:00 /

Obesity has gone global. Recent statistics have shown that approximately 1 Billion people are overweight on the planet and the two primary causes are increased consumption of a diet in processed foods with saturated fat and a decrease in exercise. Consider some of these statistics: 3 in 10 Americans are trying to lose weight at any one point in time; 35% of Americans are clinically obese; the top three disease killers in the US are related to obesity (heart disease, stroke and cancer) and American’s spend $40 billion on diet related products annually. Alarming.

Research has shown that diet alone will not keep weight lost off alone. Fitness factors in as well. Actually, 80% of dieters are trying to lose weight alone and studies show that 90-95% of dieters will gain the weight lost back within 1-5 years. Exercise is a key component of permanent weight loss, but not without consideration of diet as well. Exercise is also a key component and success factor for people who are successfully able to keep the weight loss off. The role of counseling has also been of great benefit for customizing a weight loss plan and the accountability factor in sticking to a new regime.

In addition to diet and exercise, new technologies and supplements are being introduced with some success into the weight loss arena such as: spa treatments, infrared saunas and the use of cold lasers to disrupt the fat cells, the products of which can then be excreted. Many are also using mobile technology for an accountability “buddy”, calculation and tracking of weight loss and fitness goals. No matter what individual plan entails, gradual, realistic lifestyle changes over time have been shown to produce long term results.

One of the most critical factors in delivering exceptional care – whether to loved ones, or a patient – is to seek as much knowledge as possible with respect to the loved one’s condition. For professional caregivers and healthcare workers, continuing education is often a requirement. Because there is a staggering number of opportunities to get educated, it’s critical to spend your valuable time wisely by picking educational opportunities that are relevant, attainable and practical.

To that end, Griswold Home Care is proud to announce the availability of a series of on-line courses that are both practical and accredited for healthcare professionals for use in meeting their annual CE requirements. These courses have been designed and developed by the Institute for Professional Care Education, in conjunction with Griswold Home Care. As an example of unique nature of these courses, consider the first course: The Invisible Side of Multiple Sclerosis. While there are many courses dealing with MS, this course deals with how to live with MS, and how healthcare extenders (nurses, social workers, family caregivers, friends, etc.) can better understand the psychosocial aspects of the disease. Click here for more information or call Sam Grass at 678-360-1044, or Brad Culp at 770-329-8196.

We want to thank Griswold Home Care for sponsoring today’s show. Griswold Home Care has been a preferred provider of high quality, affordable in-home senior care in Atlanta for more than 20 years.

What a great day in Booth 61 with long time friend and Atlanta Media Maven, Julie Bryant Fisher and Atlanta Chamber of Commerce Vice President of Technology, Larry Williams. Julie and Larry shared the exciting story of Atlanta’s thriving and growing Mobility market place. As an Atlanta native, I am so proud of everything our Chamber is doing to promote the Atlanta entrepreneurial, start-up technology community. The results are powerful.

They also shared all of the exciting news about the upcoming Mobility LIVE event on October 1st at the Woodruff Arts Center. There are less than 500 available seats. This is a DO NOT MISS EVENT! My company, Hunter Technical Resources will bring a crowd so if you want tickets, you should order them yesterday. 🙂
