Day 30: the real end

This post is a bit overdue, but I figured it was a better late than never kind of thing, so I am going to at least bookend this journey here on HHH. I finished! I went to another stroller strides class on Friday – had a BLAST (AGAIN!) and next thing I know it’s noon and our kids are still playing at the park and we are chatting up a storm. I brought an iced chai tea with coconut milk and stevia that I cold brewed in the fridge.  I started cold brewing chai tea last… Read more >

Day 29: penultimate

I caved at the store because Califia was on sale and the sound of toasted coconut almond milk was too amazing to pass up.  The ingredients list, for the record, is: Almondmilk (Water, Almonds), Coconut Cream, Sunflower Lecithin, Sea Salt, Natural Flavors, Potassium Citrate, Locust Bean Gum, Gellan Gum, Monk Fruit Extract Which is a lot more than almonds and water, but shockingly less than some of the other flavors I was debating, not to mention the lack of “sugar”.  Califia prides itself on being carrageenan free, but all those gums seem just as tricky… Read more >

Day 28: bon appetit noodles

I HAD THE BEST DAY! I don’t have pics of my breakfast because I ate it at a friend’s house after a stroller strides class.  I think stroller strides is a national thing but for those who don’t know, it’s a moms exercise group that you do with your kiddos in strollers.  I’ve known about it for years but have never done it because I’m plenty motivated to work out on my own and don’t want to spend the money on a membership to a gym or any other program. However, my bestie here in… Read more >

Day 27: the end(ish)

Guys, I am slowly going to phase back into a “normal” diet. I feel like I have done all I can do to attempt to reset my gut and my plan going forward is to be MUCH more cognizant of the amount of fodmaps I eat in a day so I’m not slamming my body with things that will ferment all day long.  Like maybe one meal a day I can “cheat” a bit but otherwise I should try to stick to the guidelines.  At least for now… That said, my breakkie was by the… Read more >

Day 26: Date night

This one leftover pancake wasn’t enough even after loading it up with cashew butter so I grabbed one of the blander bread muffins I made after. There we go. I had two cups of coffee too.  With coconut milk and stevia.  I’m all out of coconut milk so I better make some almond, cashew or something milk soon.  I really miss Califia’s mocha almond milk and if I go back to it I’ll be curious about how my taste buds perceive the sweetness. I had my pills late so then I ate lunch late.  Probably… Read more >
