this is what I do
My sweet tooth struggle is a tough one. Most gluten free baked goods just don't deliver on texture and flavor. You'd think this would help with that sweet tooth issue but it doesn't. Well, one night I was scrolling through Facebook land when I came across a recipe for flourless peanut butter cookies. 1 C… Continue reading Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
MealPrepWeek27 I am a little late with this post-like two weeks. Sorry folks, between work and holidays, I just got a little busy and sidetracked. About that holiday... How was your Thanksgiving? Mine was great minus the six pounds I gained. I way overate and I allowed myself to have some gluten for the long… Continue reading Meal Prep Week 27
MealPrepWeek26 I'm sorry I'm late to post this week. It's been a crazy busy week for me. I haven't been to the gym still. I'm not sticking to my meal plan very well. I think I have a bit of a solstice disorder. My motivation levels are at a low even though I couldn't be… Continue reading Meal Prep Week 26
MealPrepWeek25 Today is my last day of the 24-Day Challenge. I want to reflect on it for just a moment. I lost a total of seven pounds. That's not too shabby and is almost right in alignment with losing two pounds per week. I haven't done my final measurements yet to see if I lost… Continue reading Meal Prep Week 25
MealPrepWeek24 After successfully making it through the cleanse phase (and losing six pounds) of my 24-Day Challenge, I took a four-day, slightly stress-induced break. I also gained two pounds back and learned a good lesson in why making good food choices is key. My husband's grandmother dies last week and we had to travel to… Continue reading Meal Prep Week 24
MealPrepWeek23 I finished the first week of my 24-Day Challenge with what I would call some success. I'm six pounds down. I'll gather the week one measurements and photos soon. My venture into lower carb food is much harder than I thought it would be. Carbs are everywhere and it's important to know the good… Continue reading Meal Prep Week 23
MealPrepWeek22 After a weekend spent enjoying nothing but gluten and carbs and gaining weight, it's time for real change. Today I started the AdvoCare 24 Day Challenge. So far, so good. My morning couldn't have started better either. I had to get a health assessment at work so I am able to start my challenge… Continue reading Meal Prep Week 22
MealPrepWeek21 I am getting ready to do another AdvoCare 24-Day Challenge-and this time, I am really going to stick to it. Anyone want to join me in this challenge? We can all work together and hold each other accountable. Check out the challenge and order any other AdvoCare goodies from my site. I plan to… Continue reading Meal Prep Week 21
MealPrepWeek20 Whoever said eating healthy was easy may have fibbed a little. Which leads me into the issue at hand-cheat days. I took the meaning of cheat days the last couple weekends to a whole new level and pretty much undid all the good I was doing during the week. Logging my calories at the… Continue reading Meal Prep Week 20
MealPrepWeek19 I prepped like crazy Sunday! I'm tired of dipping my toes and ready to just jump back in. I have a goal to reach and doing things half way is not going to get me there. Being back in the gym was a little rough. I'm so angry with myself for taking a four… Continue reading Meal Prep Week 19
