You know where you’ll find me most mornings? Well, it’s not so much where, but with what… You’ll find me with coffee in hand. Doesn’t matter if it’s sweltering our arctic outside, coffee is the morning ritual I can’t live without. I’ve already discussed how I make it iced, with a jolt of protein from collagen (and why you should too), but one aspect of my coffee obsession I haven’t yet shared with you is how to make the perfect Trim Healthy Mama coffee creamer. It’s a simple concept, really: cream, sweetener, and flavoring. But getting it right? Well that’s… Read More
7 Amazing Benefits of Integral Collagen
Bulletproof coffee was first. Then came Gelatin Coffee. Now, there’s a new super ingredient in town: Integral Collagen. While on my Trim Healthy Mama journey I started buying Vital Protein’s Amazon Integral Collagen rather than the Trim Healthy Mama Integral Collagen because it was the same quality but cheaper and shipped faster. Before, when I was buying it from the Trim Healthy Mama Store I loved using it in recipes, desserts and drinks, but I hoarded it like gold since it was so expensive. Now that I’ve found a less expensive source of quality Integral Collagen I’ve been experimenting with… Read More
Eat Seasonally: What’s In Season In June + 52 Recipes To Inspire You
Ya’ll, I cannot even believe that June is here. As I’m writing this, it’s June 2nd and if we keep going at this rate, the summer will be gone before we know it! For those of you that don’t yet know it, I work from home, as while this has tons of advantages year-round, the time I notice it the most is when summer rolls around. Compared to my traditional office-space friends, my summer tan is right on point, because I mostly sit outside and work. At least as long as my laptop battery holds out. For the first time… Read More
Bubble Tea, 10 Trim Healthy Mama Ways
Thanks to Instagram, the Taiwanese sensation Bubble Tea has taken the world by storm. It goes by several different names: pearl milk tea, boba milk tea, boba juice, or simply boba, so don’t let all the different names fool you! And, while there are tons of different variations of bubble tea (if you can dream it you can do it) most contain a tea base that is then mixed or shaken with fruit and/or milk, which is then poured over cooked giant black tapioca in a simple syrup mixture. Seriously, from the moment I saw a video of Bubble Tea… Read More
Husband Approved Easy Zucchini Lasagna (THM: S)
Is anyone else missing noodles while on Trim Healthy Mama? Getting creative with my noodles is one thing that I struggle with. For those of you that are new to Trim Healthy Mama, I highly recommend that you read the Introduction to Trim Healthy Mama, or grab the book for your Kindle, because I don’t want you to think that you have to give up pasta to be a Trim Healthy Mama – you don’t!

Eat Seasonally: What’s In Season In May + 52 Delicious Recipes To Inspire You
I think on some level, we’re all trying to save money on groceries. It might not be consciously, especially if our emphasis while shopping is on health, but to some extent it always hurts in the checkout line. One of the things we hear frequently is to eat seasonally, not only to save money, but to buy better tasting, more nutritionally-dense foods. And while that may seem great in theory, eating seasonally isn’t always so cut & dry in reality. Grocery store tricks, pricing differences, and the huge variety of choices make choosing the correct, in season produce challenging, while… Read More
Love Potato Chips? 18 Ways To Satisfy The Craving The Healthy Way
Early this week, my daughter caught some sort of virus that’s been going around. She started wanting to be held non-stop (this is the child that NEVER stops moving) and felt really warm to me, even though the thermometer still hadn’t registered any sort of fever. I knew she wasn’t feeling good, but I did what any mom would do: pushed fluids, cuddled with her, and monitored her temperature. Around 9 pm, though, her temp rose to 101.4, and I started to get stressed. I sent the hubs to the store for some comfort foods – namely chips and dip… Read More
THM Fuel Pull Ranch Dressing (With S and E Options)
There was a time when I though I couldn’t have ranch dressing. This was way before I discovered Trim Healthy Mama, back when I was a runner, when I waitressed on roller blades for a living, and when I shed 50 pounds over the course of a year. I did it by eating more salads, smaller portions and being super active. Plus I was young, so my body responded readily and the weight came off. But fast forward 7 years later, I’m married, have a child, and my metabolism isn’t exactly raring to go anymore. I was thirsty every single… Read More
