Hi there,

I have the first pdf ready for pressure cooker recipes if anyone out there is interested. I have tried most, but not all. Many  have the nutrition info, but be warned it is using MFP stats so it may or may not be accurate. If you are

I know, I am posting about dumb sh!t. I had a snow day, so apparently too much unstructured time on my hands. Went to make my first turkey breat in it, thank you alouisa for the idea. Ended up when it was done, I no longer wanted potatoe and gravy with

Had a snow day today- woot woot! Spent some time at the local mall buying Converse shoes. I wear these every day to work, as my kiddos just love them. I realized this morning that when I was at my heaviest I couldn't wear them- my foot was too wide. I

For the first time yesterday I made a true pulled pork for the game. The Instant Pot did a perfect job of this by the way, so those that own it I followed Bob Warden's Great Food Fast recipe and it was better than most restaurants! But, holy yikes I gu

Just found out about a really useful app that others might enjoy. The website copymethat.com allows you to quickly copy a recipe online and store it. If you install the extension it is just a matter of clicking a button. Then it imports everything for

What a crazy ride this stomach issue process has been. I went from first diagnosed as an acid issue, then gallstones, and then literally sitting on the preop table adding in a large hiatel hernia repair. Next came the inability to eat much and pretty m

Hello,

I bought a pound of Isopure strawberries and cream, and can't stand the stuff. Usually if I don't like a mix, if I put in my coffee I can finish it that way- but not strawberry. Any suggestions for making this crap more tolerable? I have

I just started making homemade yogurt again, but this time using my Instant Pot pressure cooker. Awesome! I can use a gallon of milk now, and the IP makes the process crazy easy. But that also means I now have a lot of whey every week, and it is a sham

It has now been a few weeks with the new Instant Pot. I am in love! Not only is it meeting my needs splendidly, but I actually do not want to go out to eat anymore! My husband actually complained a bit last night (our traditional date night) that we we

Hi,

I had my gallbladder out on 12/22. I get that for some people it can take a couple weeks for the digestive process to adjust- but sheesh. Any tiny amount of fat triggers bathroom chaos. It is severe enough that I can't eat anything at work-

Yep, another ecition of kitchen gadget disease. I own 3 stovetop pressure cookers and love them. Decided over the holiday break to put together a pressure cooker cookbook and get my sister an Instantpot pressure cooker for her birthday. Of course, I ha

I went out to dinner tonight and ended up ordering "gouash soup". I have never heard of this before. I had surgery a couple of weeks ago and sadly the doc just told me today I need to extend out the full liquids/very very soft food for another 2 weeks

Yesterday on Dr. Oz he had a bit on how you can reduce the calories by half and also protect your blood sugar levels when preparing rice. Make your rice as directed- just add in 1 tsp coconut oil in during the cooking process. Then, completely cool it.

About 20 years ago the family realized that we lost the coveted Sauerbraten recipe that had been passed down for generations. I had a few of those types of recipes too on my side of the family, and knew that putting index cards in a box just wasn't goi

A while back JustPete suggested I try probiotics given I was having some very persistent stomach issues. (Turned out to be acid, possible return of a large hiatel hernia, and getting the gallbladder out tomorrow.) I am only just now getting around to p

What a journey! 4 years ago I was pretty certain the surgery would only help some to get my weight down and prayed my mobility would improve. I was so wrong! Sailed to goal, and happy to officially be 4 pounds under as of this morning. (My blog documen

Ugh- the saga continues. Saw my surgeon today, and he got the results from the CT scan last night. I had previously been diagnosed with gallstones and need the gallbladder out. Surgeon said the CT found that I had a hiatel hernia. This was repaired dur
