PB+J Easter Chocolate Treats

It is Easter time and if you are anything like me, you have zero willpower at the supermarket to not buy some easter eggs. Last week while still on my detox I scoffed a bag of mini eggs which has Malteser eggs, mars bar eggs and m&m eggs as well as a few of the…

Embracing Autumn

As our days are getting shorter, the weather getting colder and winter just around the way, it is time to switch up our eating and lifestyle habits to suit the colder temperature and the changes going on around us.

I’m At The Halfway Point.

I'm at the halfway point, I can still see the beginning but I am able to see the top and how short of a distance it is until I reach the end. It's the end of two weeks into my gut healing diet and I am generally feeling good about how it’s going and the…

Thai Style Chicken

The D-Low on a LCHF Diet
