2013: Changes

January 6, 2013 by A Pinterest Addict 3 Comments

I know I'm a bit late on this, but Happy New Year!! According to the Mayan Calendar, we aren't supposed to be here right now. Or at least there should have had some kind of event that would have altered life as we know it. Actually, there were many interpretations of what was supposed to happen at the Winter Solstice, and based on your beliefs (spiritual/religious etc) you might, or might not, have bought into them. Now that December 21, 2012 has past, and we are all still alive and … [Read more...]

Gluten Free – Week 3 {aka – time spent finding things I can still eat}

August 5, 2012 by A Pinterest Addict 12 Comments

I wanted to just check in and tell you what's been going on for the past two weeks with my Gluten Free diet. To be honest, things have been slowly inching by in terms of weight loss, but I'm still feeling pretty good. Nine pounds in total are off, and although that's only about 10% of the total weight I need to lose, it's a great start. … [Read more...]

Gluten Free – Week One

Let me start by saying that I am shocked by this "diet". For a number of reasons, actually. First one being that I wasn't hungry at all. Normally, I think about food CONSTANTLY. I was always checking the fridge, the cabinets, stopping at fast food restaurants, etc. I never felt full or satisfied by food. It was an all day, every day obsession. The first day, I did have a little of that going on, but I just ate something that was gluten free, and went on with the day. I wasn't expecting miracles … [Read more...]

Is a Gluten Free Diet For Me?

Gluten Free Croissants - maybe I won't miss bread too much!

Well, you might have noticed that since this post, I haven't had much to say about my diet. Even though I was ready to get started, I knew that I would be going to the Haven Conference, and then off a few days later for our two week long road trip. Starting a diet while on the road would be hard, if not impossible. I know lots of people stay on their diets while they are on vacation, but alas, I am not one of them. Well, not in the first few days of a new diet anyway. Not to mention that I … [Read more...]

My week in review…

January 19, 2012 by A Pinterest Addict 8 Comments

Things have been a little quiet around here in terms of projects. I know, shocking, right? Well, to be honest, I've been kind of stuck in a rut on a couple of things. Like what to paint on this cute little cabinet now that the base paint is done. It's now painted a beautiful shade of Night Tide, by Rustoleum. Love the color, it's yummy! I would love to do something like this - as recommended by Melinda. Isn't it the cutest? But I'm hesitant because I'm afraid of committing to a … [Read more...]
