Work In Progress...

The last few days have been rough, to say the least.

The kids got sick, then me and daddy got sick.

And then, my back started acting up on me again.

So now I have a wicked cough, and every time I cough I come thisclose to throwing my back out. Add to that the fact that I haven't worked out in at least a week (probably the reason WHY my back is acting up!), and the fact that I'm out of Shakeology and eagerly awaiting my delivery, what do you get? You get one cranky mommy.

Coffee, anyone?

What I have been doing over the last few days is planning a new blog series, "What I Eat and Why I Eat It". Here's the first of my many disclaimers:

I AM NOT A NUTRITIONIST, DIETICIAN, OR PHYSICIAN. THE POSTS ARE FILLED WITH MY OPINIONS, FEEDBACK ON HOW IT WORKED/DIDN'T WORK FOR ME, AND FACTS AND POINTS FROM RESEARCH I'VE DONE, WITH LINKS FOR YOU TO REFERENCE. I, BY NO MEANS, AM SAYING THAT IF YOU FOLLOW MY RECOMMENDATIONS YOU WILL LOSE WEIGHT OR ELIMINATE HEALTH ISSUES.

There. Sorry to seem like I am yelling at you, just wanted to make sure that it stood out. To summarize, I have no professional training in the field of nutrition (YET!) nor am I a medical professional. I am going to share with you recommendations and how they worked for me. That is all.

What I plan to do with the series of posts, is answer the most commonly asked questions that I get about meal planning, avoiding grains, Meatless Mondays, Paleo/Primal diet, recipes, and more. To start out, "Meatless Mondays" will be up soon! Happy reading!
