What I eat

You could say I am a very picky eater. I try to eat healthy. No artificial colors, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, high frutose corn syrp or gmo's. I limit soy and proceed foods (but sometimes you need an Amy's meal night). And I buy organic when ever I can.

For as long as I can remember I have stomach issues. And I have taken medication on and off for the past 20 years to try and help. But the meds didn't fix the problem, it help it from hurting as much. But I was taking a muscle relaxer 4 times a day. And if I didn't take it right on time, I would still end up sick. So knowing that there are some foods that I just can't eat. I thought I would play with my diet and see what happens.

My diet had very little red meat and some chicken. So I thought that would be a good place to start. And so I cut meat out and I could tell a difference. Then eggs came out, until finally dairy. Ice cream was the hardest to give up, but I have found some good replacements.

So I have gone from a flexitarian (a vegetarian that will eat meat) to a vegan over the last six months. And it has made a huge difference in the way I feel. I no long feel sick to my stomach all the time. I have been able to stop taken medication for my stomach, which has help increase my energy level. I just feel better over all.

What is your Dream Planner?

  I can never find a planner that works for me. I have a day job, two business and kids. I am also one of those people that needs to write everything down or I end up missing something. For years I have taken part of different planners that I like to make them my own. Now I have decide to take this one step further. I am make all of pages and I am looking to make a planner for small business owners. I have put together a quick 6 question survey, to help me know what other business owners are looking for.

I feel so behind in getting a blog post up. Life has been keeping very busy but all in good way. Now I recently got myself an ipad to replace my laptop that had died. So I have been trying to figure out the best way to write on the ipad. I think I found the best way for now. With less than a month before my half marathon and trying to train in the Texas heat is a challenge. But getting out early and lots of water make it manageable. I am swimming on my cross train day and sometime on run days too. (I am already at the pool six days a week and it gives me something to do vs standing around for an hour.)  The garden is coming a long. I have twenty beds in area 66' x 7'. So I have a lot  of plants in the ground and still have some beds that I have not planted yet. But this Texas and I do have a long growing season. So they will end up with plants in them. My biggest concern with the garden right now is water. We are under tight  water restrictions . When the rules were made th...
