Trim Healthy Mama Beginning

Have you heard of Trim Healthy Mama? I hadn't either until just a few months ago. But I knew I was going to be ordering the book and it worked out that I was able to ask for it as a Christmas gift instead of purchasing it myself.
When I first saw it I was very intimidated! It's a HUGE book! But once you dive in you see why...it's packed full of information but written in a way that is easy to read. I think if they would have taken out much of the "conversation" then the book would have been fewer pages however it would have been really difficult to read.
So I want to start right away even though I have to read first so I searched for and overview of the plan. And I found one! This gave me a little idea. I have also been talking to a good friend that has taken me under her wing to help me through the journey of this parenting, homeschooling, country living that I'm trying to figure out. What she has said has followed right along side what I'm learning through this awesome book!
So how have I started while I'm waiting to get through the book? First, I have joined several Facebook pages. This is a great place to learn from other people. I'm starting to collect the ingredients that I don't have on hand now. I've started drinking the Shrinker and the Good Girl Moonshine. I've started cooking some of the Satisfying and Energizing meals that they recommend. I've learned that it's best to start with S meals if losing weight is your goal so that's what I'm sticking with for now as I continue to read. I'm also tracking my food I eat and my blood sugar to track what foods set off the insulin truck in my body so I know what foods are best for me!
Come follow along and see what progress I make with this new Trim Healthy Mama journey!

Holiday Traditions?

I'm so excited to be co-hosting with Melissa! I have been a long time reader & finally got around to co-hosting! I can't wait to see all of your holiday traditions & I'm sure add a few to my list too! Holiday Traditions? What are those? I'm not sure we have any set up in our family. We never really had anything that we did every year growing up either. So I'm not surprised that we haven't thought about setting anything up for our kids either. Last year we tried doing the  Three Wise Men Gifts  but I of course bought more than just 3 gifts. So what is the plan this year for holiday traditions in our house? Bass Pro Shop Winter Wonderland to visit Santa Three wise men gifts  One Santa gift plus the stocking Baking cookies at Granny & Great Popa's house Baking cookies at Grandma & Popa's house with cousins & then heading to the local fire department & police station to share with the men & women that keep us safe throug

My Pregnancy Story with Monkey

So I have one of those crazy "I didn't know I was pregnant" stories. Yes I didn't know I was pregnant until I was pretty far along but I will get to that.  In May 2008 we picked up and moved out of state. At this time we had been completely off birth control for 2 years and nothing. We also found out when we first started trying that I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)  which basically meant "good luck getting pregnant". We decided that we would start the adoption process if we were not pregnant by the time we were 30 so we had a few years (still do actually! Yeah God!) So we were just enjoying life in Oklahoma and enjoying the small town life. Every Sunday morning we would walk down the street and enjoy breakfast at Selena's, we'd sit on our front porch and talk with the neighbors, and visit family in town at least once a week. Starting close to October I started feeling like something was wrong with me so I went to the OU campus in Tu
