  • gettin' in those greens wherever i can. 🥗 #eatrealfood
  • two months & handsome as ever! Jude loves tummy time, pulling on mama's hair, & taking baths. 🧼
  • wine is Paleo, right? @marissaspencerrr says that it is, & i would never doubt her. 🍷p.s. order the dates at @sixtyvines. 🤤
  • hiya friends, good news: my first blog post of the year is live, & i'm pretty psyched about the fact that Jude allotted me time in betwern feedings & diaper changes to finish this one (only three months after first sitting down to write it). 😂 #momlifeanywayz, it's no secret that pregnancy presents its own unique set of challenges when it comes to "being healthy." (srsly, who wants to worry about working out & eating balanced meals when they're battling crippling fatigue + morning sickness every day?) but IMHO, that's why it's all the more important to prioritize your health & wellbeing during this special time! on the blog, i'm dishing out the deets about what my idea of "wellness" looked like as a first-time expectant mother—including how i ate, exercised, & supplemented—plus the prenatal habits i personally swear by for a smooth labor/delivery & postpartum experience. check it out yourself {#linkinbio} or share it with someone you know that's prego! 🤰 . . . #pregnancy #postpartum #healthypregnancy #newmom #healthhacks #healthyhabits #hormonehealth #holistichealth #holisticnutrition #40weekspregnant #pregnancyjourney #expecting #fitfortwo #eatfortwo #prenatalnutrition
  • this happens every January. i make a mental list of all the things i'm going to do to become the best version of myself: practice yoga + meditation every morning, say a Rosary every night, finish one book a week, publish one blog post a month, etc... simple tasks in & of themselves, but when combined, make up a rather daunting commitment to keep. needless to say, by the end of the first or second week, i'm usually overwhelmed, exhausted, & disappointed in my "lack of motivation" to master this arbitrary to-do list. suddenly, all the determination & excitement i started out with on January 1st seems to dissipate into thin air, only to be replaced by a disheartened urge to give up on my goals altogether.but instead, this time, i turn to God. & in doing so, i understand why my good intentions to better myself always end in defeat... PRIDE. year after year, i foolishly set out to do everything all on my own (without Him, as if i ever could). it is self-improvement for self-improvement's sake, perfectionism without a purpose. & in the midst of prayer, it occurs to me: what is the point of accomplishing x, y, or z—of becoming the woman i was created to be—if it's not for His glory alone?i sit with this, at peace for the first time in days, & no longer burdened by my own inadequacy. finally, i invite Him in & try again.
  • coconut yogurt used to be my fermented food of choice, but for the duration of my pregnancy, i couldn't eat it without gagging. (however, i had no problem with regular Greek yogurt—so weird.) i decided to give it another try on Paleo, & whaddaya know, we're back with this beautiful breakfast bowl!for a probiotic-packed meal or snack, i top @culinayogurt plain coconut yogurt with @purely_elizabeth grain-free granola, a dollop of tahini, cacao nibs, sliced mango, chia seeds, & @catalinacrunch protein cereal. 🥥
  • [january 10th, 70 degrees & humid] me to Scott: can we please move? i want to live somewhere it snows in the winter. ❄️ [january 11th, 32 degrees & snowy] me: 😳🙃😄 touché, Dallas.
  • @smblasik & i have been craving sushi like nobody's business, but since we're on the Paleo train right now, we thought we were out of luck. that is, until we spotted this veggie sushi recipe in @marksissonprimal's cookbook. must say, i was pretty skeptical about how it would turn out (sushi without fish OR rice?), but my husband proved himself a freaking master chef & nailed it. i mean, just look at those presentation skills! the medley of cauliflower, cucumber, & avocado was surprisingly satisfying, & we added a bit of leftover shrimp to give it more protein. hit the spot! 🥢while we're on the subject of Scott & food—i'm happy to report that he has been rocking the January Paleo challenge. i know it's only been a week & some change, but while i have diverged once or twice with a bowl of oats to boost my milk supply, he's stayed the course like a champ! aside from occasionally missing bread + 🍨, he's actually really enjoying the whole foods lifestyle. proud wife over here, y'all. ☺️ . . . #holisticnutrition #primalkitchen #pcoseats #pcoscommunity #sushi #balancedmeal #healthyeats #nutritionist #intuitiveeating #instaeats #wellnesstips #hormonebalance #eatlikeanutritionist #functionalnutrition #eatwell #mindbodygreen #livewellandgood #healthgoals #easydinner #ricelesssushi #pcosnutrition #paleomeals #plantbased
  • my @everlywell food sensitivity test results are in! & just in time for my 30-day Paleo challenge. 💃this is the second at-home test i've taken with Everlywell (the first was the women's health test two years ago), & once again, the process was completely seamless: after placing my order a couple weeks ago, i received the test kit in the mail on December 21st, shipped my blood sample back on the 23rd, & was notified this morning of my results—a pretty impressive turnaround for being in the middle of two major holidays. but the best part? i didn't have to go through a doctor or even step foot in a lab. 👏 want to see what 12 foods the test showed i was sensitive to? results are in my Healthy Hacks highlights! (here's a hint: Paleo mornings just got a little bit tougher...) 🍳p.s. right now, Everlywell is having a huge holiday sale for 20-25% off all test kits, so if you'd like to check out their selection, DM me for the link. you can also find it via the Healthy Hacks page on my website. you're welcome! 😉 . . . #everlywell #foodsensitivitytest #myeverlystory #affiliate #loveyourbody #eatwell #functionalnutrition #holisticnutrition #prioritizehealth #eattothrive #foodsensitivities #PCOSwarrior #knowyourbody #holidaysale #givethegiftofhealth
