Had a great real food day today with all delicious meals :)

Went to Rocket Bakery and finally got some homemade sausage (snausage, oink oink snort snort). They are usually sold out but finally got to try some. We bought 3 different kinds (the 3 without added sugar). We tried the garlic one this morning for breakfast; it was delicious. Along with eggs, homemade fried potatoes and tea; it was a great breakfast.

Lunch was Chili from the freezer, topped with avocado. Snack was a Larabar. Also had a cup of Nettle tea with local honey (nettle tea is a daily recommendation from seeing a homeopath).

Dinner tonight was Bison burgers topped with 5 Brother's Cheese (smoked cheddar), spinach and tomato; all served with homemade fries baked with Moose Spice. Yum yum :) I had mine bun-less as usual, trying to stay gluten free again :)

Let's try Homeopathy

26/4/2015

I have mentioned in previous posts that I have a lot of issues going on health-wise and I really believe they are having a great impact on my weight. I have had problems losing weight for years and years. I have tried every fad out there and I have taken doctor's advice of eat less and exercise more. Nothing seems to work long-term. I am tired of seeing doctors and being told "I'm fine" or "here's a prescription, not sure what's making you ill but take this everyday" or "You're just getting older". I don't want to just treat my symptoms and continue to feel this crappy. I want to find out what's going on and fix it. I am tired of simply getting through the day, I want to thoroughly enjoy my days.

After seeing yet another doctor, getting questionable blood results and being told "I am stumped" by the doctor I decided I needed to do something different. I made an appointment with a homeopathic doctor and for the first time in a long time I have some hope again :) I am not saying everyone needs to go see a homeopath and I'm not saying they are all great either, but I am hoping that this will work for me. I think I have found a good one who is informative and seemed generally interested in helping. I have a list of things to do and take (many I was already doing) and we shall see.

I apologize for not posting very often over the past month. I was on vacation for 2 weeks and since getting home I have not been very motivated to start cooking again. We have been eating out often; too often.
We have stayed home and cooked a couple of meals. Tonight we had fresh trout and baked potato with butter. It was great :)

Dinner Club #3

Went out last night for our 3rd dinner club. Friends of our prepared a great 3 course meal. The appetizer was Curried Sweet Potato with Maple Soup; it was delicious. I will need to get the recipe for that :) The main was Chipotle and Maple Ribs with roasted potatoes (roasted in Smoky Tea-Aki Spice & topped with cheese) and roasted peppers and onions. It was all great. Dessert was Maple & Pecan Sticky Buns with a fruit salad. These buns were amazing as well :) We finished off with a Maple Dessert Wine. In case you didn't realize it, maple was the theme :)

Food Porn: Cruise 2015

Just back from a 2 week vacation that was full of tons of great food. We spent two weeks gorging ourselves on pasta, pizza, omelets, bacon & meat, desserts, cappuccino, gelato, and wine; and it was delicious :) We really did not worry about real food rules during our trip. We started our vacation eating in Rome, ate in various places in Italy, Monaco, France, Spain, and on the cruise ship. The top meals for us were the pasta dishes in Rome at Sora Lello; I had Eggplant Parmesan and Hubby had Pappardelle in meat sauce. There was a great pasta included in a tour of Tuscany, where we ate in the wine cellar surrounded by huge wine barrels.The best pizza ever was in Sicily in a little restaurant in an alleyway :)
Sorry, some pictures will not orientate properly.

    My name is Michelle and I am tired of struggling with my weight. I am stopping the struggle.
    This blog began several years ago as a healthy lifestyle change (really, diets in disguise if I'm being totally honest). Now it is evolving into a non-diet blog and that makes me extremely happy.
    I have recently started this new way of thinking. There have been some bumps in the road, it hasn't been easy, I still question, but I am still learning. 
    If you struggle with weight and have issues with food and body image than join me on my journey. Hopefully we can learn together :)
