What is your favorite low carb recipe?
I love finding and trying new recipes. What in the world did I do before pinterest?? I have tried some low carb hits and misses. My favorite so far has been a chicken scampi recipe which is copycat of the scampi at Olive Garden. I think it tastes better than Olive Garden's. So yummy!…

Carb Friendly Spirits
Any good ideas for some carb friendly drinks? Going on vacation soon, and my favorite go to is not carb friendly (pina coloda or rum w/ pineapple juice). I am not going to be eating totally keto- will be having some local cuisine- but I don't want to drink my carbs if I can avoid it.

Small NSV...
So I was running late this morning and was going through my closet like a bulldog in a china cabinet looking for something decent to wear. I reach in, dig around, and pull out a pair of pants that I hid from myself a few months ago. Hid them in the back of my closet cause they were starting to get the painted on too tight…

Awesome dessert thats good for you!
This is an awesome dessert that gets me through chocolate cravings so thought I'd share: Take 1/4th of a baker's dark or semisweet chocolate square (break it in half then cut it in half again) put in glass bowl. Add 1 tbs. peanut butter. Microwave it for a few seconds (maybe 15), stir, and then microwave a few more seconds…

Any Yogis here?
Hey everyone! So as part of my healthy lifestyle, I am trying to establish a regular yoga practice. I have been practicing yoga for 10 years on and off, but as soon as things get hectic as they tend do in life, my yoga practice goes out the window (and unhealthy food comes in ). So this summer I am trying to get into a…
