Gluten-Free Snacks!! So Much Yum!
Gluten-Free Snacks
It’s Friday and these are awesome gluten-free snacks!!! Traded my homemade chocolate chip cookies or a big greasy burger for dark chocolate instead. I still get treats but they don’t make me feel sick and bloated ?? Being #glutenfree isn’t so bad after all! Gluten-free snacks for the win in every way possible!
About My Gluten Intolerance
By the way, I am severely gluten intolerant. I will break out in eczema all over my hands. I will also have a distended belly that makes me look like I’m pregnant. It isn’t a joke and isn’t to be looked at lightly. Everything we do to our bodies compounds over time. There were times where I would feel horrible for multiple days in a row and had no idea why.
I literally knew none of what I know, and that was just four years ago. Gluten-free? Didn’t have a clue. When my husband went through his transformation, my mind started going crazy. He started really finding sensitivities in his own body and then pushed me to find out what was wrong with mine. The saddest part….I know my body does way better without red wine. So it’s not just gluten that hurts me. The only reason I found this out, was because I had slowly removed junk out of my diet and finally found different areas that might be cause for concern. I eliminated those areas and then I am seeing more and more change….for the good!
The key is to test things. On a lighter note….this little treats don’t give me any side effects!! Yeah!!
What “happy meal” are you going to splurge on this weekend?Just a little splurging is fine but don’t go too crazy or you’ll be bummed come Monday’s workout.

How to Survive Celebrations the Healthy Way!!
Celebrations the Healthy Way
Grad parties, BBQ’s, Father’s Day, they take work to enjoy these celebrations the healthy way. Summer is in full effect and the hard part for me is, the busyness can hurt our progress if we let it. I mean seriously, when you get somewhere and all your food choices are empty carbs, chips and maybe some greasy meat. What do you do?
Well, as I’m learning in business and in my health..planning is key. Never leave much to chance when it comes to your nutrition or fitness or you’ll look back and wonder how 2 months has passed and you’ve gained more than you thought possible in a short time.
Here are my tricks:
- Drink plenty of water early in the day. I shoot for 3 liters a day and one of those before 10 am.
- Always have food before you go somewhere. That way you’re not starving and eating whatever you feel like.
- For every drink or cup of coffee, drink two glasses of water to compensate.
- Get your quick greens in for the day by blending a couple handfuls in your daily smoothie. You can’t even taste it.
- Have a little bit of something if you just can’t resist and really enjoy it. Life is too short to be perfect all the time;)
Last but the most important to me personally!!! Enjoy the company more than you enjoy the food. By this I mean, by tweaking your brain to focus on the conversation and not the food you’ll quickly realize it’s not that special anyway.
Hope this helps and have a fun weekend, enjoy your celebrations the healthy way!
