About

Hi! I’m Kristy the owner and writer of Chocolate Slopes.  I am a registered dietitian with a Master of Public Health degree, mom to 3 adorable children and wife to an amazing husband.

Chocolate Slopes is a resource for anyone looking for healthy recipes, realistic nutrition and fitness tips and a little adventure. I strive to help other families lead a healthy lifestyle through tips and tricks on how to eat healthy and stay fit in this fast-paced, over-indulging, fast-food-on-every-corner type of country we live in.

Stay connected with me on Pinterest, Facebook, and Instagram.

I can be reached at chocolateslopes@gmail.com.  Feel free to contact me with any questions, comments or ideas you would like to see on Chocolate Slopes.  Thanks for stopping by!

Random Facts about Me

1. I am OBSESSED with peanut butter and chocolate ANYTHING!
2. My favorite all-time sport is snow skiing. I’ve skied in Spain, Colorado, Canada, Switzerland/Italy and all over Michigan.  As you may have guessed I created my blog name Chocolate Slopes based on my love of chocolate and skiing!
3. I LOVE to travel. I have visited more major cities in Europe than I have in the United States.  Mostly thanks to studying abroad in Càceres, Spain in college.
4. My husband and I met country line dancing…not do-si-do…REAL line dancing at a country bar named Desperados.
5. I went sky diving at the age of 18, it was an amazing experience; yet I will never do it again.
6. I love running, triathlons, rollerblading and boating.
7. I have a motorcycle endorsement and love to ride but don’t own a motorcycle.
8. Our kids’ birthdays are on the 3^rd, 6^th, and 9^th in that birth order– you’d think we had planned it.
9. I am active, extroverted, and adventurous, but at times can be the most serious person in the room—if you ask my mother, I’ve been that way since I could talk.
10. I am a registered dietitian and will admit it’s a constant challenge to eat healthy and exercise regularly . . . just because I have the knowledge, doesn’t mean I’m immune to temptations!
