Monthly Goal Blog Hop


I figured I needed to do this to hold myself accountable. Okay, that was a crappy reason, but I'm sticking with it until I come up with one better.




July Goals: 
Eliminate soda - again.
Walk at least a mile twice a week (2.5+ laps around BBR pond)
3 days without red meat, pork or poultry
1 week without eating anything on my sensitivity list
Start oil-pulling again
Take my vitamins and meds EVERY DAY
Rearrange dining room and living room
Attend a transcendental meditation info session
Listen to my Circle+Bloom mind-body meditation sessions 3+ times a week
Complete and sell some of the crafts piling up in the bedroom

I know that these are not difficult goals - I just have to decide that they are more important than whatever it is I'm doing now.

  1. This is my first "blog hop" so I'm a bit clueless. Let me know if there is something more I can or need to do! I love your list. I need to kick the diet soda habit (again, as well!) and walk more as well as continue reducing my "bad carbs" (the birthdays threw me all out of whack!). I love the idea of committing to completing crafts- I have so many little projects floating around 3/4 of the way finished or with the materials bought but no start in sight! Hope all is well! http://secsvspcos.blogspot.com/

My First Giveaway!

My last post was about my decision to start a bakery. I'm very excited about it, and have been getting some fantastic reviews from my taste testers! My menu is small right now, but I am continually working on new recipes to expand it. I'm currently attempting to make a really good gluten free sandwich bread that doesn't have corn, potato, white rice, or soy in it. I hope to have it done by opening day, Nov 1. I know it's weird to open on a Tuesday, but I plan to be very busy celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary on Halloween by scaring little kids :) I figured one of the best ways to advertise the bakery was to have a blog giveaway. So that's exactly what I'm doing! One lucky reader will receive a $20 gift certificate to I Can't Believe It's Good For Me. The giveaway is open until midnight, Oct. 31. The winner will be chosen by random.org and announced on Nov 1. Here are the rules: 1 - You must complete the mandatory entry. 2 - Post each entr...

Cortisol and Leptin...

Photo credit I feel so run down. I felt like this most of last week, and ended up taking 3 days off work due to it. This weekend was better - We went to Houston. We spent several hours enjoying the Downtown Aquarium on Saturday, and I enjoyed my PCOS symposium on Sunday. But as soon as I got in the car to head home, this feeling came back. It was so bad that I tossed my cookies less than an hour after we got on the road. This was definitely not from being car sick. I don't get car sick. I was tired all evening, had stupid issues with my homework, and finally went to be at 2-2:30. I realize that was late, and it could explain why I'm tired, but it doesn't explain the run-down, crappy feeling. I got plenty of sleep last week and still felt this way. I think it could be a cortisol issue. I have high cortisol levels. I know I haven't checked with a doctor, but from the information I received at the PCOS symposium, as well as years of research, it fits. I did some more re...
