Starting March off Right...Almost

My plan was to start off March with a bang and make sure that I'm making good habits instead of the bad one's I've been stuck in again! I have several things I'm working on but March was going to be my "On Plan 99% of Time" month for Trim Healthy Mama. I wanted to meal plan, prep and maybe even get some meals put in the freezer so I could pull them out on busy days but then this happened...
Snow days here in OK are different then CO because they don't care for the roads the same way CO does with magcloride and it's warmer here so the snow first turns to ice and then it gets covered up with snow as the temperature drops. So with all that said...no grocery shopping today :( 

My hope is that I can get out tomorrow late morning and hit the stores before the crowd. I won't be going to church because I'm not going to drive that far but the grocery store will be a must. Plus if I can hit the grocery store during regular church times then the stores won't be to busy. I'm just going to have to wait and see what happens. Hopefully I won't have to put off my plans for a few days while I wait for the weather to change. Hopefully I can still start everything tomorrow. I'm going to make these changes! Just being on plan about 50% of the time for the month of February I lost 6 pounds and that includes eating a complete Blue Bell container of ice cream in 2 1/2 days. See bad habits! I ate it because I wasn't feeling good about how I have been as a mom and homemaker so ice cream had to be eaten to help. This habit has to break and quickly!

I'd love to hear about your beginnings with THM and/or maybe what you will be doing to stick to plan! Having a support team makes things much easier!

    Yes, good job for starting March off right! How's it going so far?!
    I feel the same need for some change this month, but instead in regard to my grocery bill. I MUST go to the cheaper store (Trader Joe's) even though it's SOO much farther than the other stores I like to go to (Sprouts). I can literally cut our grocery bill by about 40% when I use solely Trader Joe's! Which rocks because they're much healthier in my opinion (especially when you can't eat all the goodies that they set out at eye level for you to be tantalized by the whole time!) So yay, we can both DO it! Rah rah, Kari!

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

Week #2 on THM

Well it's officially the end of week 2 on Trim Healthy Mama! I have tried some more new recipes from the book and from pinterest and I'm having so much fun with it. I also order some xylitol online to save money. I didn't realize how much sweetener I would be using but when you can make sweets for any meal or snack through out the day you can use quite a bit. Favorite Meals this week E pancakes from the book! Yum! I added in frozen berries to them while cooking and they were great and the boys loved them too. They got to have the added whipped cream or syrup on theirs. Fat Stripping Frappa! OMGOSH! This is going to be my go to summer morning drink! I can see myself making one of these up first thing in the morning to get my day going and then enjoying a yummy breakfast 3 hours later. Soon as warm weather hits Hubby's schedule will be packed full daily so my mornings will start early, like 5am early! So having a breakfast at 8:30 will be perfect timing! Cheese ...
