A word of warning: this is not a positive blog post. If you’re looking for a pick-me-up from me today, stop reading right now. Because this is real, unapologetic and potentially annoying to some. You’ve been warned. I need to motivate myself out of a major rut right now. I just want to give […]
I’ve been there countless times before. And so have you, I bet. That second it takes for all your motivation to just run off of you, leaving you feeling tired, hopeless and in a general state of “why bother”-ness. Motivation, you little rascal, why can’t you just stay put and be my life long partner, […]
I have to be honest here. I didn’t come up with this completely on my own. I got the idea from one of my friends, when I went to her house for a big dinner. (Thanks Jen!) But I’ve developed it a bit further! Some of you have asked for this recipe on different social […]
I get a lot of questions from you. And I truly appreciate that. Please, for the love of everything holy, keep them coming! So I thought I’d help others that may have the same question by answering some of them here on my blog. We’re going back to basics here, y’all. As a summary of […]
One of the questions I get a lot is “what foods should I avoid?” The concept of avoiding food is technically nothing I’m a fan of, as that would make it a diet (shrug) and not a way of eating. But this list makes a comprehensive summary of foods I rather leave alone, and would […]
What’s you absolute favourite food? Does it happen to be something you “shouldn’t” be eating? Something you’re sensitive against or even allergic to? Or something that isn’t good for your condition, but it’s not causing you enough trouble to let it go? Oh boy. The amount of times I’ve had to battle this for myself. […]
Here it finally is. You’ve been asking me several times, and all I’ve answered is that it’s coming “soon”. Well, “soon” is here! What if you could still eat bread without having any trouble? And not even realise it wasn’t traditional bread you were eating, but an awesome healthy version of it? This “bread” recipe is […]
I bet your answer is HELL NO. So. Let me ask you this: should people with diabetes eat pasta? A little more hesitant perhaps? You know, because I’m asking, the answer should be no. But what about all you’ve heard and all the advice you’ve gotten from health professionals? I took a stand 2,5 years […]
I had something completely different in mind for today’s blog post. But then I stumbled upon a TED talk that I just couldn’t ignore. It hit me right in the heart. My soul summersaulted, and I couldn’t look away. It’s just so amazingly impressive. And although you may have already seen it, I ask you […]
Are YOU ready for it? I’ve been so eager to tell you about this for the longest time. Or at least it feels like it. But the timing hasn’t been right. And then came Christmas. And New Years. Now that we’ve both moved past those, let’s take a good look on what 2014 will bring! […]
