Thai Vegetable Curry Salad


I used the leftovers from last nights Thai Vegetable Curry to make a salad for lunch today.  So yummy!  I just put the leftovers on a bed of spinach.

Hubby and kids loved this, I couldn't believe it!  Recipe is from Eat To Live

Week Three Results


Okay, so maybe not that extreme, haha.  I lost 1/2 in this week but 0 lbs.  I think its because I've added a good amount of resistance to my workouts so I'm gaining more muscle, losing inches but not necessarily pounds on the scale.  I also had 2 cheats this week: shake on a date with Ben and ice cream cake on my daughter's birthday (I felt totally sick both times and was amazed at how I could feel the impact of the sugar).  Ben lost 3 lbs though, so, it's still working!

Snack Transformation!


This is my effort to change my snacking habits.  I've made a promise to myself to eat only raw fruits and vegetables for those in-between meal munchies.  I have added hummus to the veggies.  This is what I go for now in the afternoon rather than crackers, granola bars, cereal or yogurt.  It's a big change for me, but I think its a big reason why I lost weight last week and will continue to be an important part of my health and success.

Basic H

I have been using Basic H for the past six months to remove dirt and pesticides from my produce.   It is non - toxic and 100% biodegradable.   It's not a soap or detergent.  It effectively removes 99.9% of pesticides sprayed onto produce.
It is very cost effective too!

To remove poisonous residue and grime from transport of your fruits and veggies you put 10 to 12 drops of Basic H into 10 cups cold water.   

Put in produce and let sit 10 to 15 min.  


Then rinse with warm water.   


That's it!   You can see how clean your produce is.   The white spots on grapes are gone!
You can see how dirty the water left behind is!
