Half the time I've forgotten what I wanted an unusual item for by the time I find it!! And then it sits in the pantry taking up space for a couple of years before I throw it out, LOL!<br /><br />I also love the bit about not labeling your containers. Yes!! But thanks for the encouragement, because every so often I do get that "I should label all of my containers!!" bug. Not so often now, because I'm just too busy to do it anyway, but that neurosis is always hanging around ready to strike!!! :)<br /><br />Have a wonderful morning!!<br />DianaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10301075330910381544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445179622768700682.post-9876491823868040062018-03-03T12:02:27.529-08:002018-03-03T12:02:27.529-08:00Hi, Cathy!!

I have one that I use (Sheri's Baking Blend, I think it's called?), and I would love to compare. I also just started using the "Frugal Flour" mix that they recommend in the Table cookbook - half flax and half coconut. So simple, and it works just fine! I agree, the baking blend is expensive, so I'm all about finding look-alike recipes. <br /><br />I am getting my baobob powder this afternoon, and I'm so excited to try it!!<br /><br />Oh, an ATI conference! I bet it will be awesome!!! And in Sacramento - we can wave across a couple of states! :)<br /><br />We'll talk soon!<br />DianaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10301075330910381544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445179622768700682.post-85433184409135427302018-03-03T00:51:23.187-08:002018-03-03T00:51:23.187-08:00Yes it does! :) My reply is two years late LOL.

It really is a super food. I have not been sick this year and I really think it has made a huge difference in our family's immunity. Positively.<br /><br />It' really hard for me to get THM products without spending an arm and a leg. I have come up with my own version of the "baking blend" and it's so good I'm considering patenting it! LOL j/k No, but seriously. Email me if you want the recipe.<br /><br />I love the THM plan for preventing HG. I have been incorporating more lacto fermented foods however. I have noticed that keeping xo's to the bare minimum and snacking on FP's help. <br /><br />I agree, Debi Pearl's book is hands down, the best marriage book out there.<br /><br />I have so much to share, I might just email you shortly!<br /><br />Blessings!!!<br /><br />p.s We're going to the ATI Family Conference, Sacramento in July!!!Cathrine Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13239332865022559487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445179622768700682.post-85326124524760669192018-03-01T20:02:40.948-08:002018-03-01T20:02:40.948-08:00Cathy, I love this! You and I always think alike!
...Cathy, I love this! You and I always think alike!<br /><br />You convinced me to try the Baobob powder. I found some at Walmart, so I've ordered some for this week!! <br /><br />(I'm so bummed that Azure Standard has stopped carrying THM products - hoping they pick them back up soon!!)<br /><br />Did you give up caffeinated coffee as part of your morning sickness prevention protocol? I've been thinking about it recently.<br /><br />I have baby weight to lose too, and am trying to get into THM to do it - the VLC is just too hard, which is a bummer. My problem is that I allow too many cross-overs!! :)<br /><br />I love Created to Be His Helpmeet - sure, there are things I don't agree with, but it is hands-down the best marriage book out there. Love it.<br /><br />And Above Rubies is, again hands-down, the best family/motherhood ministry out there. I LOVE their stuff. It's one of the only magazines I keep!!<br /><br />Let's email soon! Have a wonderful night!!<br />Love,<br />Diana<br /><br />P.S. My Canadian family is down here this weekend having a family reunion in California! :)Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10301075330910381544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445179622768700682.post-39835867694222895272017-10-19T14:56:37.819-07:002017-10-19T14:56:37.819-07:00Affiliate marketing is one of the quickest and eas...Affiliate marketing is one of the quickest and easiest ways to make money online. <a href="https://hairwands.us" rel="nofollow">affiliate marketing</a><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17013392631709093812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445179622768700682.post-86283089188506916842017-08-09T21:15:06.895-07:002017-08-09T21:15:06.895-07:00So happy to hear that!! :) So happy to hear that!! :) Cathrine Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13239332865022559487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445179622768700682.post-47582837884176773712017-08-05T23:26:23.571-07:002017-08-05T23:26:23.571-07:00Thank you, yo're so kind!

I love the protein sh...Awesome ideas, all of them!<br /><br />I love the protein shake idea. I heard another idea that was very similar, that is, eating two hard-boiled eggs before bed every night. Considering my pregnancy aversions to eggs, that would be VERY difficult - but it's the same concept, of providing that protein that prevents morning instability. I keep cheese and nuts in a cooler by my bed for the same purpose - eating as soon as I get up in the morning. If I did in the early morning, I'm sure it would be even better. <br /><br />NVP = nausea and vomiting of pregnancy. :) I use it instead of "morning sickness," because that phrase is so vastly inadequate. Also, NVP covers both regular morning sickness and NVP, so I don't have to write out both. :)<br /><br />Freezer meals - I think that's awesome that that works for you all!! My husband just isn't into that - he's a fast-food kind o' guy. When I am in NVP mode, we tend to eat a lot of take-out (storebought rotisserie chickens, etc.) and easy things like tuna, PB&J, fruit and crackers and cheese for the children, etc. It stays simple for a VERY long time. Then when I'm able to tolerate a bit of cooking, I move into easy things like spaghetti with storebought sauce. It's like learning to live all over again when I finally make it back to real cooking! :) I imagine you know all about that!!<br /><br />If it's okay, I'd love to share this post from my site in the next week or two??<br /><br />Have a wonderful night!! <br />Diana<br /><br />P.S. 2ww for me right now. Drives me NUTS. :)Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10301075330910381544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445179622768700682.post-12775289220388450502016-06-22T13:51:36.492-07:002016-06-22T13:51:36.492-07:00Lovely! Let me expand a little on the "coffee...Lovely! Let me expand a little on the "coffee" part. I love coffee. I am such a coffee snob, I really am. The reason I am avoiding coffee (as I had a cup at a breakfast restaurant this morning...sigh*) is A) because of the 'teratogens'. Teragonens interferes with the rhythmic reproductive "dance" of our genes, chromosomes, and cells. There are effects of this disruption that cause lots of negative cases with baby. B) as a HG mom, I can't have anything in my body that I will cause me to have any withdrawal symptoms. As a HG mom, I believe that these symptoms (headaches, fatigue etc) multiply so drastically, and I would rather not have any of it! LOL<br /><br />ACV - Thats awesome! Maybe during pregancy I won't be able to tolerate the taste, but right now - I don't mind it. Who knows what aversions the next pregnancy will bring. I will def.look inot that! THANKS!<br /><br />GGMS - I'm having a brain "fart" right now.... whats a 'NVP'? LOL<br /><br />Freezer meals- my husband thrives on them. Last summer I went to Finland for 6 weeks and cooked 52 freezer meals for him. They were all either "S" or "E" meals. I still don't know what to make for a whole family? I'm kind of lost... maybe just stick to simple "cold foods"?? What is your take on that?<br /><br />PROTEIN- my hubby would wake me up at 4 a.m EVERY morning to drink a casein protein shake. It was hard, but I did it! The protein was slower to digest and it really helped me in the morning. My blood sugars wouldn't drop so heavily, which I believe made a huge impact on the same morning and day. I will start drinking shakes now, to feed my muscles etc...-1-2C water with a scoop of what-ever protein, and chuck it down!<br /><br />I can't wait to read your post!!!! I'm working on a post on how my hubby is preparing for my pregnancy too! So funny! So real!<br /><br />HUGS!! Remain blessed!Cathrine Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13239332865022559487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445179622768700682.post-91209540890474738762016-06-21T06:20:18.137-07:002016-06-21T06:20:18.137-07:00I'm just going to go through and leave comment...I'm just going to go through and leave comments as I see things, so this will look a bit random. Here goes!! :)<br /><br />Diet - I love all you have to say here! This matches my plan completely, except that I have not completely eliminated coffee. (I have one cup a day on most days.) <br /><br />Seeing a naturopath - I love this!! I should do this too. I never have, due to the cost, but I should.<br /><br />ACV - I just discovered that you can take this in pill form! I don't know if it's as effective as the real stuff, but I dislike the real stuff so much that it's worth a try. I got some at vitacost.com.<br /><br />GGMS - I've wondered if this stuff might be GOOD for NVP because of the ACV and ginger. Maybe?? Even preventative?<br /><br />Decluttering - Amen and amen! I'm working on the same thing over here. <br /><br />Attitude/responsibility for children - Another amen. I'm working on this with our eldest.<br /><br />Freezer meals - I've given up on this one, simply because my husband will NOT use them. I've tried! Too bad. But I think it's a wonderful idea - go you!<br /><br />Protein powder - How do you use this? I gave up on protein shakes because I just didn't find them as helpful as eating "real" protein (i.e. cheese, meat, etc.)<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your plans and ideas. You have so much good information here!! I love it. I hope to share this from my blog in the next week or so. <br /><br />Enjoy that beautiful Canadian summer!!!! :) Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10301075330910381544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445179622768700682.post-58090019198197398992016-06-19T08:04:57.679-07:002016-06-19T08:04:57.679-07:00yeah totally.
