More fun times for EJ
E is now just shy of 2 1/2 and things have changed a bit from last year. We recently allowed him to eat too much soy, without realizing it. When he gets bits of it in his diet over a period of time, then he doesn’t sleep. We’ve known this from the beginning. What’s new…

How Things Evolve
I knew I needed a change a year ago when I went to the doctor and I weighed the most I’ve ever weighed in my life. Long story short, I started eating more whole foods and started to go through different diets. I wanted to juice, but didn’t have a juicer. So I made lots…

Diving In….will I surface?
I wanted to post something today because I have noticed a HUGE difference between days 1 and 2 of the Whole30 plan and 21DSD. I’m not craving anything! In fact, my biggest complaint is feeling lightheaded, which is probably because I haven’t eaten enough today. Here’s what I made today: Avocado chocolate pudding, cold pork…

21 DSD – Preparation Phase
Wow it’s been awhile since I have posted on here. I was in a pretty good place last October. On the Whole30 plan and making the shift to paleo. Only major life happenings got in the way. Again. That’s like, inevitable. Yes? Our household is not all on board with eating the same. Because of…

An Issue I can't run away from
For a few months now, I’ve been dealing with a strange issue. It has taken a backseat to my kids and JD’s weird neuro whatever that has been going on, so I haven’t really dealt with it. It seems to be getting worse, so I’m writing about it. I don’t know why, but it feels…

Recipe >> Autumn Pork Roast
Hey friends. Throwing a couple of recipes at you this morning. This is what I made yesterday, and man oh man, was it good. Now, I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been on Whole30 for 5 days now, but everything I am making is tasting sooooo good. I’d like to think it’s maybe a…

Day 4 of Whole30. No quirky lines for you.
I am being reduced to a soulless, primal being. All I want is a venti salted caramel mocha from Starbucks. It’s all I think about. I need to talk about something else. At the end of day two, because I had skipped breakfast (slept through it…a very rare luxury), I needed something at the end…

Day Two. 29 to go.
I’m in the middle of day two. Chicken is roasting. I know that will help with tonight and tomorrow. Because the kids haven’t been letting me sleep this week, JD let me go back to bed this morning when he got up, and I slept until almost 11am! I missed breakfast. Which is vitally important…

Day One >> Whole30 Hard.
This program is already making me feel like a caveman. I want to grunt and growl at everyone. I want to go hunting. For chocolate. It’s all because I want something sweet, and I am post lunch. Even though I had 1/4 of an orange after lunch, which was really sweet. I want processed sugar…

Misconceptions
I am so sick of everyone, including seemingly every doctor ever, telling me that E will grow out of his MSPI. And GERD. The kid is almost a year and a half old. At 3 months, when he was not growing and in and out of the hospital…getting a feeding tube, etc….it was all, “he’ll…

The Beginning
Welcome to Forgetti Spaghetti. One mom’s attempt to conquer her world. A pro photographer by trade, I blog often about that part of my world. I’ve been wanting to share my other experiences, document them and such, but didn’t feel that my other blog was the right place. And thus, Forgetti Spaghetti was born. Now…
