Fresh Family Eats

As we approach the new year, I am wanting to focus more on living better; eating, moving, living.....all things better. I decided to start using my Fresh Family Eats again to post about our journey. Yes, our journey. My family is on this journey, not me solo 🙂. So, if you are interested in following us, be sure to follow me on Instagram. I am going to post there about our journey, with the occasional share to my regular fb page. Come join me on Instagram at fresh_family_life.

Things you will see will be posts about healthier eating, recipes using my many kitchen gadgets (air fryer, instant pot, slow cooker), essential oil remedies, bullet journaling, crafting, and more.

Happy New Year!

Keep your eyes peeled. I must return to greater fresh eating for medical reasons. My migraines have gotten out of control and my sister assures me that diet can help with this. It's so easy to fall off the wagon and even harder to get back on. But I am. I will be entering a support group online with a coach to get my butt back in gear.

Today I was home sick with a migraine and pinched nerve. I used my oils to manage and they helped a lot.

Came home from the grocery store and hubbys allergies were bothering him. Hew as my tester for taking oils internally. DoTerra oils are high grade for ingestion, well the ones that are recommended for ingestion. I gave him a shot of water with 2 drops each of lavender, lemon, peppermint. His allergies went fro. An 8 to a 4 on a scale of 1-10

The oils worked last night. I fended off that cold I felt coming on! And we had a favorite for dinner tonight. Read all about it. http://freshfamilyeats.com/and-its-gone/

Hopefully I am not speaking too soon, but that cold I felt coming on last night is GONE! I used my essential oils last night and diffused doTerra’s On Guard while I slept. I truly believe it made the difference! Essential Oils are amazing. Just placed another order for doTerra’s oils; I ordered…

Sitting here feeling a cold coming on. As I sit here and think I realize that I have had a few colds since the end of the school year, just a few and during that time I was not eating clean. I barely ever got sick when we ate well. Hmmmm. Food (clean food) for thought This is the first cold sin…

Well, I am back again. Not sure what happened and why I fell off the clean eating wagon, but I need to get back on and keep on moving. Here is my first blog entry back. Thanks for staying on this journey with me :)

Well, my last blog entry was from April and now it is August. Four months have passed since I last blogged, since I last dedicated myself and my family to clean eating…..Not only have I gained weight, I have seen a huge increase in headaches, lethargy, and over all “blahness”. I have decided that…

Tasty dinner tonight! Chicken and Lemon Asparagus Stir fry with Asian Edemame Rice. http://freshfamilyeats.com/its-been-a-while-not-sure-sure-why-but-it-has/

Made a delicious dinner tonight. It’s been a while since I have cooked one of my clean meals. Not sure why, but I kind of fell off the wagon. Went 3 weeks without grocery shopping. No way to eat clean when you are not shopping for fresh food. Morgan helped me make dinner tonight, Chicken and Le...

I feel nauseaous. Took Morgan to her laser tag event and had sick Belle with me. She hasn't eaten a whole lot the past few days so I thought I would treat her to Mcdonalds. Of course, I had to get something for myself. This was the first fast food since January 1. While I only ordered a grilled chicken wrap, I also ordered fries....my weakness. They tasted good going down, but now I feel sick. part of it is disgust with myself for getting crap when my body hasnt this kind of crap in so long. I kept thinking of pink slime that nuggets are made from when I was feeding them to Belle. Ewwww...Ok, maybe this was a one time slip.
