A Month in Review 3.14

March has been an exciting month for us. A full month of blogging under our belts and we are excited and encouraged by how many people have visited our blog. It's so humbling to be able to help people begin their own journeys to health.

April is an extremely busy month at my full time job so my goal is to blog at least twice a week. If that isn't enough for you, join us on Facebook where I always post our evening meal!

A MONTH IN REVIEW

Mr. was featured on a local station out of Indy! He was sharing our journey using Emeals. You can find the link here: Paleo Emeals

Here is the link to Mr.'s Segment on Fox 59: Mr. on Fox59

Then I shared 5 Simple Steps for Beginnners to Understanding Paleo. Linked here: Paleo Beginners: 5 steps

Next I took you to through how I meal plan while following Paleo as seen here: Paleo Meal Planning

We've been doing this as a team. I wanted to share our tips on the Paleo Journey with your partner. Here are 10 tips: Paleo with a partner

We were equally excited when Mr. was able to share our journey on another local station out of Louisville during Great Day Live. Check it out here: Mr. on Great Day Live

I get a ton of inspiration and motivation from other Paleo Bloggers so I shared 15 of my favorite 'must likes' on Facebook! Linked here: 15 Paleo Facebook 'Must Likes'

And THEN...this happened Testimonial Tuesday !!! Our story was featured on Emeals blog for Testimonial Tuesday! Again we were humbled and honored to share our story. We love using emeals and we were so excited to share our story through their site!

To get ready for our debut on emeals Testimonial Tuesday we had our friend, Kelly Stephens, snap a few 'during' pictures to share our progress! She's naturally got a great eye and we really appreciate her help with this! Here's her work: 'During' Pictures by Kelly Stephens

Mr. shared his journey and showed off his 75# weight loss (it's more now...but I'll let him share that when he's ready). That's our kiddo on his shoulders who symbolizes the 75# that Mr. has lost as that is how much G-man currently weighs. Linked here: Mr.'s 75# Loss

I am a KISS (keep it simple stupid) type of person and because we have been bombarded with beginners and those interested asking us questions I did a post to keep it simple! Linked here: Simple Paleo

We can't wait to see what April has in store for us! Please let us know how we can help you! Start today because Food is a Drug #Paleo!

Reset in Progress

So for the next two weeks as I reset my habits and start the cleanse, it may be important for those closest to me to tread very lightly. I was pretty ill for most of the month of December especially that last week or so. My body is very ready to cleanse and detox and begin the healing process. The Smith household is having a Paleo Reset starting today. I sort of wish it was as easy as pushing a reset button but unfortunately it is not. We started Saturday by cleaning out the refrigerator and the pantry. We did meal plan and shopping Sunday morning. We stumbled upon a great price on a whole chicken that was antibiotic and additive free. So I cooked it in the Instant Pot Sunday to have protein for the week. After it cooled, I shredded it and put the bones back in with Fish Oil, Carrots, Garlic, and Onion and cooked it for 2 hours to make fresh bone broth. This made 3 mason jars full of broth. I also made an egg quiche ty...

Paleo Intermittent Fasting--Emeals Paleo Bacon Turkey Meatloaf Recipe included!

At a recent appointment with my favorite Integrative Medicine Physician, Mr. and I were able to lay it out all on the line and learned how to refocus on our health journey. Dr. W knows of how successful we've been with changing to a Paleo Lifestyle. He saw us through it every step of the way last time. So he asked us (individually) what we knew about Intermittent Fasting. Admittedly, Mr. and I knew very little and probably still don't know much but Dr. W assures us he's super impressed with what he's seen come from research and thought we'd be perfect candidates. So on August 1st (Actually the 31st of July because it was a Monday), Mr. and I started down this path. Much like the first time I tried paleo I was a little apprehensive. I've spent the last several years coaching others to eat 3 meals and 2-3 snacks per day. I've focused on food so much that I wasn't sure how I was going to slow that train down. I found that 1. It's a lot easi...

Meal Plan++Paleo Mulligatawny

Thank you to everyone that responded to my survey. I really appreciate the feedback and look forward to sharing with you this year. Meal planning has been our best asset to following a paleo lifestyle. We use emeals and follow the Paleo Meal Plan. Every week I get an email with lunch and dinner options and I make our meal plan based on the activities we have on our calendar. Wednesday's I work 13-14 hours and so you can bet that I almost always use my crock pot on those nights. Otherwise, I try to match up the easier meals for our heavier loads on our calendar. Here's our meal plan for this week. I write out our menu plan on this magnet that's on our fridge. It makes it easier for me to remember to pull meat and thaw from the freezer in advance. That Jambalaya is in my Instant Pot (on slow cooker mode) as we speak. I've done a horrible job of food pictures that last couple of weeks but wanted to share this recipe with you. I made ...
