Juicing Recipes - Ultimate Juice Recipe Resouce

I was bored one afternoon a few weeks ago trying to brainstorm some blog post topics. All I really want to write about is pregnancy, but there is only so much to say on the topic! So I turned to Instagram for some topic ideas. You guys had some good questions! Rather than writing long posts on each topic (which I would probably struggle to do) I thought I’d just round them all up in one (or two) posts. So here they are! How to know if you need a protein supplement? Protein is good for satiety and building things in your body – muscles, tissues, enzymes, hormones. But you don’t need to be drinking protein smoothies or eating protein balls everyday to meet you needs (with a very few exceptions). The DRI (Dietary Reference Intake) is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, or 0.36 grams per pound. That means if you weigh 130 pounds, you’d need about 47 grams per day to meet basic needs. If you eat most foods and have a balanced, healthy diet, you’ll likely have no p...

Hi, guys! Happy Hump Day! And happy birthday to Mal ! We actually had a mini celebration at 5:45 this morning, but then we plan to have another one this afternoon – complete with presents, dinner, and Funfetti cupcakes.

I was craving Citizen Bowl’s Umami bowl and asked about five people on a lunch date and everyone was busy! So I took myself out solo. I love to people watch and tuck a podcast into my ear for entertainment. MY OTHER RECIPES This bowl is MADE by the delicious mushrooms! I really need to branch out and try some of the other bowls they offer, but I can’t resist this one every time. You know what I love equally as much as a super healthy nutrient-packed lunch bowl? Chaps Cake Batter. I requested a kids size cone, but something tells me I got and adult portion : ) We’ve been eating on the deck a lot and had burgers for dinner. I was thinking while I was eating this th...
