Weight loss, especially, if you have quite a bit of to lose can be a long, drawn-out journey. And, like any big goal, or long journey, it can be hard to stay motivated. The same workouts day in, and day out, the same “diet food” and even the same comments from family and friends have a way of dragging you down while losing weight. I’m not big on New Year’s resolutions, because I think they can never live up to the hype, and that they die about Mid-March, but one New Year’s resolution that everyone can {and should} make is… Read More
I enjoy good food. I’m not a McDonalds, or even Arby’s kind of girl (except for their Mozzarella sticks, but lets face it: fried cheese is good just about anywhere). I’m not even a Chili’s or Applebee’s kind of girl. When it comes down to it, I love good food. To me, the holidays scream good food, sweets, treats, and family – and no holiday would be complete without Pecan Pie. Since I’m a Trim Healthy Mama, traditional pecan pie is out, but that doesn’t meant I have to be deprived. With a little creativity, some internet research, and a… Read More
Typically, the holidays are a dieter’s heaven & hell: The thrill of indulging in fattening foods and heavenly desserts that you’ve been denying yourself for so long can send you spiraling into a pit of self loathing and sugar that can be hard to just up and quit when the new year – and it’s accompanying New Year’s Resolution – rolls around. For years, I’ve been on that cycle: dieting like crazy and getting results, then indulging over the holidays and hating myself for it. But this year, I found food freedom, and I have to share with you my… Read More
I have some sad news: I am the only one in my family who loves Indian food. My husband hates it, my daughter hates it, and even the dog won’t touch it. Of course, maybe its my cooking…….. Back to the point: I love Indian food, but there are two things stopping me from eating it more often: time and dietary restrictions. Indian food doesn’t naturally fit neatly into an E or S Trim Healthy Mama Meal, it usually takes quite a bit of time and effort to prepare, so it’s only natural that I don’t get to eat it… Read More
This year has presented me with a new challenge as the holidays have rolled around: How do I make candies, cookies, and the other desserts that I love having around during the holidays while still adhering to Trim Healthy Mama guidelines? I’ve already posted about my absolute favorite THM holiday dessert recipe – Pecan Pie Bars – but as my sweet tooth seems to have exploded because of all of the delectable recipes posted on Facebook and Pinterest, when I saw BuzzFeed’s recipe for M&M Buckeyes I knew that I had to modify them to be THM-friendly ASAP or I… Read More
Anyone can lose weight on Trim Healthy Mama. Whether you are a true Drive Thru Sue and love convenience foods, or you don’t dare let any processed foods cross your lips, true to Purist form, Trim Healthy Mama can work for you. One of the things I like about the plan was that anyone could do it, regardless of budget, expertise, or feelings on processed foods. But Serene and Pearl do recommend several speciality foods to make your Trim Healthy Mama experience easier and more fruitful – and when they recommend a product, whether of their own or in general,… Read More
Right around the end of September, when the leave start changing colors, the weather turns cooler, and minds start thinking about the holidays, my husband’s mind turns to one thing and one thing only: Pumpkin Pie He’s a fanatic – I kid you not. He’s kind of a grinch when it comes to Christmas, but you better believe that he’s asking for pumpkin pie as soon as he starts seeing leaves on the ground. I’m not as much of a fan of the pumpkin pie as he is, and doing Trim Healthy Mama doesn’t exactly lend itself to buttery, flaky… Read More
