So glad we went! Grandma passed away late Th, we were able to drive down Friday night. My MIL is always so on top of things, always takes care of everyone, but was so tired and rundown and sad. I...
Teach, that's really practical encouragement to not worry so much about food. Husband's family is Latino, so I'm going to talk w D about rice and beans being ok when we're at their house. But we'll...
Thanks, Richard - I probably need to branch out more recipe-wise. Made tapenade again today, as well as omelette with salsa and lots of avocado, snuck delicious cheese into the meat sauce and...
Yup, I definitely think brownies w/ coc. Oil, probably shrimp, maybe stuffed mushrooms or some kind of creamy artichoke concoction D need never know about.. We'll probably do a little family...
Ok, teach, you inspired me! No excuses, getting outside to play is part of our morning routine, and this morning I did my PBF then. since it's not a work day, I just dressed in workout clothes when...
Sorry she's having tummy issues! You can soak prunes to soften them or just add some prune juice to your smoothie. Sweet potato fries are a big hit in our house with the kids and seem to help, too....
We went to the pool yesterday all as a family, and while I'm not at swimsuit model stage obviously, I felt totally unselfconscious - so nice! D swam underwater for the first time - yay, our big...
Love it, teach - thanks for sharing! Just updated mine for the first time in forever - I need a place to share about this part of our lives without worrying about how it compares with anyone else's...
Teach, I'd love to see your blog! Link? I have one, hope to get it updated soon. But basically, we had a great day. Getting through the school stuff took most of the morning, but that was with lots...
Hard to focus, so many things I want to give energy to! PB eating, easy peasy, PBF needs some attention! Kicking off learning plans w D this morning, making sure she and baby have a great sitter...
Tired of the fickle scale, not motivated to bother with the calipers too often... Picked a pair of size 8 shorts for my motivation / measurement tool! Two weeks ago, I could button them but they...
Good day. IF'd the morning, ate a big lunch with salad, meat and eggs, a smaller dinner with the family, but then had some meat instead of carbs when I got nibble-y. Felt like I was in fat as fuel...
Yes, teach, I don't think these things are linear - just like physical growth, the mental/emotional stuff seems to go in leaps and plateaus! Going with the flow seems key.
Avocado girl, you might look for phonics comics - they're pretty cute and more advanced!
Oh, and my husband likes tricking her playfully, if she doesn't want to read out loud... He'll purposely miss words as he reads to her, so she'll laugh and correct him...
You have fun plans! Reading for D at least morphed frequently, what seemed to work best. And since she was so little, there was no way I was going to push if it wasn't fun! Like you said, keeping...
A little late saying this, but good job getting your workout in! L6 with squats - wow! Soccer must keep your legs strong. I'm low in every level, but loving it anyway! I really enjoyed lifting in...
No way, we're finishing up K level CSMP! Love it - I just call it Math Games with D, bc it really feels that fun. What else are you using? This year we're sticking with CSMP, starting Story of the...
Long, hot, tiring day - the heat seemed to suck all the patience out of me! Got a walk on this morning when all was cool, but tonight I either totally lost my will-power or my body really needed...
Thx, Teach, not shooting for low carb for her - do you think it's ever possible for a kid to overeat things like fruit, though? I guess I still feel like I should encourage her to balance out the...
My kid may have had a fair number of carbs today at the picnic with all the fruit in different forms, but she didn't have wheat, dairy, (much) processed sugar, or a bad attitude! I felt like it was...
Hungry day! My morning was pretty active, and lunch may have been a little light for how hungry I was... So I just felt insatiable in the afternoon!
B: green smoothie w coconut milk & protein

That's awesome! Congratulations on breaking 180! I am loving the freedom from worrying about insane hunger & "hangriness" if I forget a meal/snack, too :)
I had a rough day yesterday, then drank too much coffee in the afternoon, so getting to sleep too forever! Now that I write that down, I'm thinking, hmm, how can I do basically what I need to do...
Ok, I'm going to keep the momentum rolling, get my busy day with crazy meetings off to a good start.. LHT! I am loving the freedom to start with lots of wall pushups instead of forcing myself...
