Stuffed Meatloaf - a budget friendly low carb meal with a cheesy surprise. I've always enjoyed cooking. I remember I got my very first cookbook when I was about 12 years old. Not a kids cookbook, a real adult cookbook. I was so proud and excited and just want to cook dinner every night to … Continue reading ….”Stuffed Meatloaf”

Exercise - physical torture you put your body through to proof you can. I always enjoyed an active lifestyle - but working out on my own - I am just so bad with motivating myself.

I survived my January whole 30. I expected it to be hard, but it was not that hard this round. Last year I also did a whole 30 and experienced it much harder. We kept low carb over the holiday period so I guess it assisted me on this journey. Many people wanted to know … Continue reading …. Whole 30 (2)

Low carb kids - growing into healthy adults This is a very controversial topic in South Africa, considering the whole Tim Noakes saga. I still find it unbelievable that majority of people think it is better to feed their kids sugar, wheat and other nasty chemical ingredients than whole and healthy food.

Let's be honest, nobody loves food allergies. It is the most frustrating "illness" to deal with. In our case, we started a low carb lifestyle to help us to cope with food allergies.

Let's be honest....who is still sticking to their new years resolutions? I took January to reflect on 2017 - what did I want to achieve and what did I actually achieve. It was a bit of a wake up call to realize I'm great at setting goals, but horrible at achieving them. I changed my approach … Continue reading ….January goals

Some big celebrations coming up (Hubby is turning 4-0!), hopefully launching a new business and completing the book I've been working on. I deliberately took … Continue reading ….Setting goals 2018
