Working on changing it up - Enjoying the weekend

Feeling a little better after a long night's sleep! 

On the food front, still struggling with disgust at most of the foods I've eaten for the past three years but trying to make good choices, regardless:

I made paleo pancakes for dinner last night - no veggies, but packed with nutrition (eggs, bananas and coconut flour). I made a flax milk smoothie with fruit and tons of spinach to get some greens in :)

I went grocery shopping and bought romaine and asparagus... Haven't tried them yet, but just thinking about then doesn't want to make me hurl so that's a plus :)

I weighed in - gonna aim for 2-3 times a week to try and keep an eye on what's going on with this new way of eating (adding back some grains). Excited to be right at 129! Hopefully can maintain around there for another month :)

Enjoy my lazy (or not- still had shopping, house cleaning, laundry and a dog walk on the agenda) Saturday! I wore myself out a little with a burst of activity in the morning, might be a good time to try a 30 minute nap.

Naps are hard for me. It takes me anywhere from half an hour to an hour and a half to fall asleep, so if I set my alarm for 30 minutes or an hour after I put my head down, there is a good chance that I never even got any sleep. But worth a try! I'd like to get another energy boost in the mid-afternoon :)

If you celebrate this weekend, enjoy your traditions and rituals and enjoy your family <3 I don't celebrate anything besides the beautiful renewal of Spring, but I'm going to have a ham dinner with my uncle and cousins tomorrow to enjoy family time :)

Namaste, friends.

  3. Hi Jeanette,
    I've never commented before but I'd like to say that I really enjoy reading your blog. I'm thrilled for you in your new stage of life - and I heartily sympathise with all the emotional ups and downs you are experiencing. I felt almost psychotic in early pregnancy! I wish you all the best,
    Zoe

  4. It must be tough dealing with the food issues, but hang in there - hopefully that will right itself soon enough. All the best to you.
