Great message on my yogi tea bag this morning. I've been feeling funky lately and I really feel like I needed to see this. Thanks Yogi Tea!
I think my thyroid is out of whack based on the way I've been feeling lately. I also feel like I've gained weight even though I've been eating healthy, staying away from all the no nos, and working out harder and walking a lot more. It's extremely frustrating, so much so that I'm considering going to a low cost medical clinic. I had an extremely bad experience at one several years ago and swore I would die before doing that again, but I'm seriously losing my mind. It is so frustrating to be eating healthy and yet not feeling good and also seemingly gaining weight. Like it's put me in a serious funk. I'm saying all of that to say that for three days starting yesterday I'm back on the kitchari, green smoothie and potato diet. I feel like it helped a lot when I did that before. Even though it's kind of boring, I need to do something, because I am really struggling.
I made some longboard style fries seasoned with garlic powder and this chili lime seasoning. That stuff is so good. Just the right amount of chili and lime. I was scared to try it for awhile because I'm not always crazy about a ton of lime, but this stuff is just right. I made s dipping sauce with green dragon sauce and Just Mayo. Perfect!
I had a few squares of this for dessert. Not potatoes or kitchari I know but sometimes a gals gotta have chocolate. This is one of my favorites, and I had kind of forgotten about them until my last trip to Trader Joe's. It's really rich so a few squares is all you need.
Etta snuggled up with me last night to protect me while I watched an episode of Supernatural. I was able to sneak a few pictures of her beauty once again!
The title of this post is everything haha! I know the frustration of feeling like you are doing everything right and it not having the effect that you want. I hope that the clinic has some answers for you if you do decide to go.
ReplyDeleteThose potatoes look delicious and always and yes, we all need a little chocolate in our lives sometimes!
It's so frustrating. I haven't fully committed to a clinic, but I think it might be the only way to get some answers.
ReplyDeleteGRRRR!
The potatoes were soooo delicious, and so is the chocolate!
LOVE the tea quote! I will have to try Just Mayo and Green Dragon Sauce! Sounds like something I would enjoy!
ReplyDeleteIt's so good! I do think you would love it!
DeleteEtta is more luscious than an truffle bar.
ReplyDeleteShe really is a gorgeous girl!
DeleteThat really stinks that with everything you're doing, you're still not feeling better; how frustrating! Hopefully the clinic will be helpful if/when you go. Etta is so very pretty!
ReplyDeleteIt is so, so frustrating. If I do go to the clinic I really hope they can help.
DeleteEtta is my little reluctant supermodel!
