So after 4 or so days of trying to do a vegan diet both me and my friend Kesha that was also doing it got sick. So that pretty much put a damper on that. If anything it made me enjoy my meats and dairy even more! I never really ate too much meat anyways, just mainly chicken. Just dairy I think I need to cut back on. My digestive system felt better limiting dairy and adding in more fiber which I knew I was lacking, and I knew I consumed too much dairy. So back to a healthy diet normal style.

Monday April 5th, 2010 13:41 Easter Time!!
It was Easter Sunday and we were off to Easter Sunday church service at West Salem Foursquare church in Salem. Such a tradition that I remember when I was little, always excited for Easter morning church. It was a great church service and Nyla and Isla were quit the little talkers during the service. After the service Kesha and Vin were so sweet to invite us to brunch with her family. Read the rest of this entry »

Tuesday March 30th, 2010 14:43 “The Kind Diet’s” Clean, Mean Burrito
It is lunch time and I had this recipe from Alicia Silverstone’s book, Clean Mean Burrito. I was kinda not in mood to actually prepare and cook something for lunch. I am used to just microwaving something (not a healthy choice), or just doing something quick like a sandwich that requires no pots or pans. I just got myself to do this recipe because I knew I wanted to blog about the recipes I did and I bought the ingredients to make it so I didn’t want to waste all the money I spent on ingredients.

Monday March 29th, 2010 22:57 Dessert time…Single Serve Brownie
Dessert time is one of my favorite times after being pregnant. I have a sweet tooth now that I never had before, which makes it harder to lose the rest of my baby weight. I found a great blog site called happyherbivore.com that is a site that the girl goes through her adventure of being a vegan and she has some great vegan low fat recipes. This dessert recipe is called Single Serve Brownie. It is nice if you just want to make one brownie for dessert and not a whole batch. Read the rest of this entry »

Sunday March 28th, 2010 22:50 Vegan Bean and Soy Cheese Enchiladas
Today I got all my grocery shopping done at Trader Joe’s for the start of my Vegan adventure. I started off Sunday for dinner with an easy recipe that I usually made with chicken but saw a recipe for a bean enchilada on the Hungry Girl site and thought I would give it a shot. It is really good and is just an easy normal meal to prepare. Read the rest of this entry »
Saturday March 27th, 2010 11:06 Vegan Adventure!
I have been trying for a while since having Nyla Breeze to lose some baby weight along with just eating healthy. My number 1 goal was to just lose some weight so I was trying low carb, low calorie, low fat diets along with just counting carbs and calories with the Daily Burn. The Daily Burn for the first month worked really well. I got down to my original weight before I got pregnant, but I felt so deprived of food. After that point I went crazy and just ate everything and gained it all back plus a little more. I just didn’t know what to do. Read the rest of this entry »
