About
The primary contributors to this blog are professional women who have, in one way or another, contributed to the success of the Green Mountain at Fox Run program over the last several decades. One has nationally renowned expertise in the fields of nutrition and behavior modification for healthy weights; the others are Green Mountain alumnae and can speak candidly and personally about their successes, failures and awareness about women and their weight.
We wish to welcome you to our blog and hope that you will contribute your questions, thoughts, fears, successes and yes, failures. This place is meant for you.
Marsha Hudnall, MS, RD: |

| Overachiever |
In an effort to solve her own weight struggles, Marsha took 'Overachiever' to a new level by obtaining her license as a registered dietitian and then a Master's in nutrition and communication at Boston University. With pen, paper and computer in hand, Marsha became a published author and corporate consultant for several Fortune 500 companies such as General Mills. When Marsha isn't renovating her home, taking the kids to ballet and soccer or cooking up nutritious gourmet delights for her family (although her son won't eat them), she serves as the Program and Nutrition Director for Green Mountain at Fox Run. Her self-described mission? To help women learn to enjoy eating well while achieving and maintaining healthy weights. |
Gina Vescio: |
|
| Particular |
A Green Mountain girl since 1999, Gina is a special combination of compassion and tough love. Her own weight struggles were exacerbated through dieting, but resolved when she decided to get "factual" and "bottom line" (rather than emotional and self-blaming - hence her penance for tough love). She's passionate about helping women live full lives that are free from the tyranny of dieting and obsession, and is proud to be part of Green Mountain and the magic that has been helping women For 35 years. |
Cindy Bishop: |

| Tennis
Fanatic |
Cindy is a business and organization development executive who considers herself a one time professional dieter. 15 years ago, Cindy rescued her inner athlete and began eating the foods she always longed for, and for the first time ever – ate them without guilt. Currently, a Business Consultant for Green Mountain at Fox Run, Cindy enjoys running, hiking and talking tennis. Her dream is to have box seats at Wimbledon and The French Open. |
Laura Brooks: |
|
| Resourceful |
After finding Green Mountain, Laura also started to rediscover her inner spirit. Freed from constraints of the diet mentality, she started to redefine her relationship with food and then with herself. Laura happily reports that the journey towards greater self-acceptance has enabled her to experience life with renewed joy and enthusiasm. In her present capacity as webmaster for fitwoman.com, she is proud to help promote Green Mountain's committment to their non-diet philosophy which has served her well. |
