Keto LIfestyle Diet Guide and FREE Keto Vegetable List

FREE KETO VEGETABLE CHART!

Keto Lifestyle and Diet Guide

 

The last few years has shown an explosion in the Keto diet and people are losing weight with this lifestyle.

 

However, if you are new to ketosis, it can be overwhelming to say the least. So many rules. So much planning.  What do you do and when? Do you have time for all this? 

 

Keto has food lists for each group of foods, like this chart I made for you to copy and save if you wish.

 


Free vegetable list for you! Simply right click and choose save.


This is just for the vegetables category. You have similar lists for meats, cheeses, oils, nuts/seeds, etc. As you can see it is a LOT to keep track of and can be overwhelming and therefore so many quit this eating plan. 

 

Keeping everything in one place and easily accessible is the key to success, The less stress the better for the Keto Beginner!

 

 

Another problem that many starting on the Keto lifestyle encounter is what is called ‘Keto-flu’ which is partly caused from giving up carbs and sugar cold turkey.

 

To combat this you’re told to cut out things gradually, again having to stop and look up this and that, what can I eat when, is this what is making me not feel well? Is it that? 

 

Keto is worth it for weight loss for many, many people.

But it won’t work for you if you’re overwhelmed with all the things to keep track of while trying to also live your life, and so you just give up and quit.

 

If any of this sounds like you, please take a moment to check out a COMPLETE KETO guide with everything you could need or want, in one place AND it’s 10% off with coupon code ‘KETO10


 

This is a program that has been featured on many network tv channels and it was created to solve only some of the problems I touched on above.

Convert Shipping Container into Tiny House Plans and 3d Designer


How to Convert a Shipping Container into a Tiny Home

(how-to & plans)

Shipping Container Tiny Home

Most of my life, I've dreamed of owning my own home.  As I've grown older, I have yet to make that dream happen, and I have found myself really interested in tiny homes for the past several years.

These home are, well, TINY  and that is a part of  their charm. They are cheap to build and upkeep.  You can build them out of most any kind of container.  Did I mention cheap?  

They are energy efficient. They don't have to look like storage containers as you can cover them in any housing material, if you desire. They can be small, or you can stack them and design storage 'mansions!

Unless you are an architect, or a carpenter, you might need help with the vision, the design, your DREAM of your own home.  I ran across this website back some time ago when I was collecting information and compiling my file information on tiny and container type homes.

The site offers 4 books  that are COMPREHENSIVE about the  designing, building, and budgeting. It's a wealth of information that can easily save you time AND money and get you in your home much sooner! Also there is an  amazing 3d home design planner application!

I found so much value in these books as they really helped me narrow down a lot issues I was unsure about, as well and inspired me and made this whole journey much easier, less stressful and much more FUN! 

I suggest watching the short 6 minute video that explains, inspires and  Goes over a ton of information  Click here for video.

Leave a comment if you live in a tiny home, know someone who does, or are interested in them at all - I'd love to hear from you!

Review on Pacifica Products

Pacifica Beauty is a company out of Oregon, and is 100% vegan and cruelty free.  Their products are made in the USA, and they are environmentally friendly.

I recently purchased a few things from them and after using them about a month, I have nothing but accolades for this company and more importantly, their products.  

I purchased 2 Color Quench Lip Tints and an Eye Pencil as seen in picture below.

(l-r) Sugared Fig, Blood Orange & Pencil in Fringe
Let me start with the lip tints. These are fabulous, a sheer wash of color, very moisturizing, glide on easily, and taste amazing. This is fantastic to throw on your lips on the go, for a very sheer wash of color and moisturization. And can we talk about the packaging?  It is gorgeous.  Every product they sell has the most beautiful packaging and design.  The Lip Quench sells for $7 a tube.


The Eyeliner Pencil I have in the color Fringe, which is a deep brown shade.  Again, I love this.  The pencil glides on similiar to a gel pencil, the staying power is great.  I've worn this on my waterline several times with no smearing or eye irritation.  The pencils retail for $11 each.

I am amazed at the quality of the products I've tried thus far. I respect the company and their vision. I am excited to try a lot more of their products soon.  

Check them out here Pacifica Beauty, and, if you have tried them, leave a comment below with your thoughts on the products.

I purchased my Pacifica products at Amazon.

Disclaimer:  These products were purchased with my own money. I am not affiliated with this company at all, and no products were sent to me for review.

My First Influenster VoxBox!

Most of you have probably already heard of Influenster. If you aren't acquainted with Influenster yet, here is what they say on their site: 
"Influenster is a product discovery platform that guides our members to products that suit their interests and needs, as well as how to use them. We provide crowdsourced opinions on products through our reviews and take it one step further with full-sized product sampling in our exclusive VoxBox campaigns."
Influenster is free to sign up,  so go do that now, and I'll wait.  Ok, great!  Now the fun begins. First, you will be prompted to connect all your social media sites, such as Facebook and twitter, etc, This gives you an "impact score", now you are ready to roll and you review products you already use and like (or dislike) The beauty of Influenster is they have campaigns, where you may be selected to answer questions about a product or how you use certain things.  But what everyone on there wants is a VoxBox, which are products sent to you 100% free, they just ask you review them and/or talk about them on your social media accounts. Getting chosen to receive a VoxBox seems random, but I finally was selected and so excited. I've seen the videos on Youtube of people unboxing fantastic items, makeup, hair products and all sorts of full-sized items. Most of these boxes have several, if not many products in them.  Needless to say, I was extremely excited to get my very first Influenster package!  

It was tiny...and said Carefree all over it...I opened it up to find this:

Yep, one little package of Carefree Pantiliners.  Hey I love free stuff, but how am I supposed to review a panty liner?  I mean, they work!  They are thin! They're portable!  They're convenient! 
What makes these different from any other pantiliner? I have no idea at all.  Will I use them? Of course! Will I tell my friends and family about them? Probably not, as women, we know and use these products already. Unless these are superior in any way to another liner, what is there to say?

In short, my visions of a Voxbox full of goodies was destroyed in an instant. Maybe next time, Influenster?

*disclaimer:  I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

Quick Update

Phew! I'm feeling much better, thankfully. I'm not totally feeling 100% yet, but maybe 75% and no longer feel like I'm going to die!

Know how I know I'm feeling better? I'm up and doing stuff instead of interacting with my couch like it's my long lost friend.  I finally did my dishes, cleaned up a bit (can we say tissues everywhere?) and now I'm sitting here with a deep conditioner on my hair. So I'm feeling productive, which is a change from the rest of this past week.

As I said, I'm deep conditioning my hair, and I use olive oil mixed with any old cheapie deep conditioner. The reason for this, is that for me, plain olive oil doesn't work well as a deep-ish conditioner for my hair. I mix it with a thick, creamy conditioner and microwave it until it's warm, (about 10 seconds) mix well and I work it through my dry hair, plop on a shower cap (even saran wrap works if you don't have a shower cap) run a blow dryer over it for about 30 seconds and quickly wrap it all in a towel and let it sit for an hour or however long I can.Then I rinse well and shampoo - no additional conditioner needed.  My hair comes out so, so soft, it's amazing, and the feeling lasts for a few days. I try to do this once a week, but normally it only happens every 2 weeks.

I have a ton of laundry to do from this week, all the blankets I used when sick most especially. Gotta get rid of any lingering germs on things, such as remotes, phones, toothbrush etc. I don't want to reinfect myself!  Anyway, while I'm toiling away at work tonight, and chores this afternoon, my hair will be silky soft!

Happy Friday!

Be back soon!

Baskets, Bins & Boxes (Oh My!)


Are you an organizational freak like me?  Everything has its place and everything should be in its place is my mantra.  Even my junk drawer is organized. I will hang my head in shame now. Clearly, I have issues.

Whenever I am cleaning things out, or re-decorating an area, I always look around for containers of some sort. When you look (and you're thrifty!) you can find all kinds of great things to use. Look at product packaging, for starters. I know I've purchased or received things  and the packaging is awesome for reuse purposes. When I buy candles I do not throw them out after I've burned them (and then thoroughly used all the wax by scooping it out and placing on a ceramic  dish on my candle warmer).   I wash them out and save them. Smaller votive type jars are great for things like colorful stones as just a decor item. They are perfect size for holding cotton buds. They can hold tiny things such as toothpicks or safety pins and if you use the votive size, you can organize a drawer full of them! They fit in most any average drawer so just think of the possibilities for all those tiny things you never know what to do with!




Plastic storage baskets you can find everywhere from Wal-Mart to any dollar store are fantastic. I must own hundreds of them.  (ok, a tiny exaggeration) They are cheap, most times being 2 for $1. You can't beat that. They come in plenty of sizes and colors too! These I use for darn near everything. They are perfect to nest into drawers to keep items contained and easy to find. In one drawer I have a few. One holds ink pens, one holds other smaller items, such as notepads/post-its and the like. Some are the base for batteries (sorted by size, natch!) I have one full of chargers (for all those electronics chargers we all have laying around).

The larger of the storage baskets  are wonderful for things such as spices, or you can use to keep all your condiments together in one in the fridge, freeing up all that door space.  keep one on the counter while you are preparing dinner and throw your 'trash' in it as you work, saving time and energy walking to and from the trash can, and then only have to make one trip!  I know that wasn't organizational in nature, but it's still a great idea! I have one or five under my kitchen sink and they hold cleaning supplies, rags and all that fun stuff.  If you organize well, you can just grab one and go!  Keep dusting things and a rag in one, and when you want to dust, you just grab that one basket and take it with you.  Saves having to rifle through everything to find what you need. Bathroom cleaners and sponges in one, general cleaning stuff in another. It really saves a ton of time.

My tray is similar, except it has handles. I love this one. It's going on my wishlist!




I found a beautiful fairly heavy and large white metal tray. I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it, but I now use for all my nail polishes and accessories (emery boards, acetone, cotton pads, etc). It slides under my end table, and I can just pull it out and everything is right there and ready to go.

I ran across a wonderful wicker  large deep open container maybe 30"x18" or so. It once held magazines, but now it resides in my bathroom. It fit perfectly on the bottom shelf of a wire rack I have which holds  rolled towels. I slid it onto the bottom shelf and now it is filled with toilet paper! The toilet paper is out of sight, yet instantly accessible since this rack is directly in front of the toilet.


I have a blue & white oriental themed ceramic flower pot/container. It's small. I keep my makeup brushes in there and it's proudly sits on my vanity.  

I'm constantly looking for containers, and anything that has an opening is fair game for me!  I try to think outside the box as much as possible and doing that has yielded me some great ideas once in awhile.  I hope this has inspired you to find your own organizational goddess and given you some ideas!

What is your favorite organizational tool?
