Green Gaint Frozen Vegetables

2011-07-07T09:13:00.000-07:00

Okay, since I got a coupon for their products, and it went on sale. We have been enjoying these items for the last few months. Fresh is best but frozen is next in line. They were never out of flavor and very crisp to the point i could swear on the bible that they were frozen right after being harvested.

I give it a yup I am going to purchase them again...review

psst, the company has not paid for this review in any way. We paid for this out of our own pocket.

Hungery Jack Roast Garlic Potatoes

2011-07-07T09:09:00.000-07:00

I normally make my own mashed potatoes. I don't do mass production products. I found a coupon for this product well all of them. They went on sale, and I purchased them. I have to say that they have easy, well flavored, and most of all easy to store in my small rental unit as we wait out our transition stage of either staging in the state we are at or moving closer to family else where.

I have to say this is a great alternative if you don't have time to make them yourself.

Psst, they company did not pay for this review. My family and I paid for this product out of our own product

Lipton 2 Go

2011-07-07T09:03:00.000-07:00

Okay about seven years ago, this product came out on the market. Seven years ago, I tried it for the very first time. Since the crash of the housing market, a move cross country, and terrible time finding a job where it fits my schedule of needing to be off when my kids are off, I had to stop purchasing it. Now, that I have rediscovered the benefits of couponing again. I get to enjoy myself with this product. So, do my kids.

I have to say if you are looking for a diet soda replacement this is it.

Psst, the company has not paid for this review. Everything has been paid for and tried out of our own pocket.

Taking the fourth of July weekend off from being healthy

2011-07-07T09:01:00.000-07:00

Okay this is what holidays are for. A time to relax and enjoy. Yes that means food you normally do not allow yourself to have to keep that figure just right..

Guess what I am eatting everthing that I shouldn't so I can say I have lived and not regetted life.

So, for now..no healthy living to report.

From June 30th through July 4th, 2011

Thursday 6/30/11

2011-07-01T03:08:00.000-07:00

Excerise: walking around shops and some shopping

Foods: peanut butter and jelly sandwich, 4 8oz of coke, eggs and sausage links lunch, and dinner 2 for $20.00 at TGIF resturant. I had a spilt the two appetizers with my family of shrimp cocktail and artichoke dip, sirloin petite with steamed chef vegetables and a loaded bake potato. did you know they charge for adding bacon bits and cheese? I didn't but that is okay. Then our desert was spilt between Brownie Obsession shown below and a red velvet cake with real cream cheese filling and frosting. The great thing about the 2 for $20.00 menu if your are not a complete vegetarian is that it does offer several healthy options like the steak or chicken dishes. Though, I will say this even though the steak portion was small, the side dishes where way too large. We all have been giving offerrings to the porcelin god and goddess since we left the resturant from over eatting. Not food poisoning but over eatting. This is part of our 4th of July celebration since we won't be going home for a visit this summer. I wish I had more pictures to show you. I don't. Thanks TGIFridays for making a menu option that could feed my family of four with two appetizers, four entrees that included eight side dishes, four drinks, and two deserts. It made it and affordable evening for us.

Whole Wheat Hamburger Helper

2011-06-30T13:03:00.000-07:00

So, I tried hamburger helper again after three years. Why three years no hamburger helper when in most households it is a staple. First of all, they had mgs and other preseratives in it that made us very sick. Secondly, they had red dye in a lot of their mixes. We have a red dye sensitivity that we didn't know about. So, we completely stripped or pantry of this product. We did not indulge in it for three whole long years. Then I noticed that they had a whole wheat option and removed a lot of the dyes and preservatives. I had a bunch of coupons for this product too. Did I forget to mention we have started extreme coupons to a midlevel measurement. We have eatten to boxes of the stuff. No reaction other than our bodies going whole wheat and blowing a gasset of gas afterwards.

I would say its a good way to make a meal quickly and not worry to much about the healthy ingridents. The majority is good.

True Lemon Raspberry Lemonade Review

2011-06-27T08:06:00.000-07:00

I got a few coupons for this product a few weeks ago. I went on the search to find it my local grocery stores. I finally found a store that carried it. They pulled the product the day I went to purchase it. I contacted the company in search for other stores in my area. They directed me to Wal-mart. The company is supposed to be sending me a package of samples with different flavors to try, since locating was a difficult process. After a week of consistently going over to Wal-mart, I found it in stock. I got some for my family and I to try.

First of there is no red dye in the raspberry lemonade. This is a good thing since I have kids with dye allergies. Yes, it slightly tinted "pink". It is very light. This is good. The overall flavor is pleasing as well. The fact the kids actually are drinking and not complaining of too little or too strong of a taste, is a blessing.

Second they use stevia sweetner. This makes it low calorie to add to your drink. It is less harsh on the body versus other sweetners say in soda or other drink mixes. Since, obesity is a concern for later in life with our family. Healthy drinking and eatting start now.

Third, the package for my kids are easy to open. They don't have to search for scissors for openning the package. I have typical kids. Since, they know it will drive me insane for them to use the scissors as swords, they do it for spite. No scissor sword wars. Phew less grey hairs for this mama! Can you see the happy face on my face now?

The true lemon company did not pay for this review. I paid for the product out of our household limited income. They are sending me samples since when I tried to originally purchase the product it was pulled by the grocery store as a way for me to try the other flavors.

Overall, I am pleased with the product. I would recommend it to other families looking for an alternative to heavily sweetened drink flavoring products.

If you would prefer ordering online here is the direct link for there store.

Balancing Act

2011-06-23T08:38:00.000-07:00

is something that is not just in a circus act but a reoccuring fact for most moms or dads that stay at home. Me ,I am learning how to balance being creative, getting stuff in the store, and staying in shape all at the same time.

Isn't easy, in fact its down right frustrating! I want to scream sometimes. Others I want to rejoice. Then there are days where I swear I am just a big ole cry baby.

We need to support each in this balancing act. Ugh..its tough enough to be a person in this day and age but to be put in a super hero role model is even tougher.

Memorial Day Weekend

2011-05-29T06:15:00.001-07:00

It's been awhile since I actually posted here. I do apologize to anyone following as a fan or friend. Life has side tracked me quit a bit, so, excerise and healthy living hasn't been one of goals for over a month.

I have suffered from major allergy stress induce migrane heads, a job that turned out to be not for me, a move, and another move in just six weeks if everything works out the way its suppose to.

So, hopefully with summer here now I can focus on what I need to not just for my family, or myself but for you too!

My healthy grocery list and savings

2011-04-17T13:31:00.000-07:00

My husband and I are watching extreme couponing on TLC. We have reevulated our spending and our needs to try to do better savings. If you are worried about money and how to do things then try some of the stragies the shoppers recommend.It will help you be healthier as well. Unfortunately, it won't copy paste what we achieved by following some of their suggestion. If you would like to see our success, please email meanmomdigitalproductions@gmail.com. I will send an excel spreadsheet with all the details. We saved close to $62.57.

what a tough day! I was super stressed by kids at home, kids at school, and my own spouse. Nothing bad just normal stresses of being a parent. It goes to figure that I had a stomache when I went to work and felt a little dizzy. Stress can do that to you. Not to much kids at school where just being beyond measure of pushing limits. I need a spa day no kids, no family, and no stress. What a blessing it would be for my family to do a rolling pin massage to me! what a relieve it would be but that is a mere wish upon a star right now.

I don't feel bad for eatting McDonald's last night or eatting tomorrow night. I know I need extra calories because of all the activity I am doing between training for a 10k, working a physical job part time, and trying to keep a clean house due to it being on the market for down sizing purposes.

**food review-
Over the holiday season we got a basket full of organic goodies. ***

Trader Joe's Sugar Cookie Workshop. this includes cookie dough mix, 2 packet of vanilla icing, 4 decorative sugars, and 3 shaped plastic cookie cuttiers.
We didn't read the instruction carefully. You have to refrigate the dough once you make it before you can kneed it out for cutting. When we did try to kneed it, it was not acting right for dough. though once we got it to kneed out, cut and baked. The taste was great. The ingridents are all natural. So, I wasn't worried about the kiddos food allergies. They enjoyed baking and decorating.
I think if we had only put in the fridge for an hour or so not 12 hours the dough would have acted right.

Paula Deen Collection Cupcakes chocolate. I was so disappointed in the mix and baking. It stuck to the pan even with lots of oil coating. It seemed kinda of dry to me. I following all the instructions for making perfectly. Oh, it makes way more than 12 cupcakes if you have smaller cupcake pans like I do. I couldn't believe it, I really love southern mixes simply because our family is from the south as well. We have one more mix to try. So, maybe the next box will work better.

Trader Joe's Pickled Corn Relish..it is wonderful. Its sweet with a spicy kick. Not to mention it has no tomatoes which is one of my family members most awesome not favorite fruite/vegetables. I give it a five star.

January 10th 2011-35 minutes run, yogart whipped chocolate by yoplait though it had a berry taste to it, cheese toast, 2 cups of coffee with raspberry chocolate flavoring, pasta with red meat sauce, 2 oranges, pizza, salad, and luncheon meat.

January 11th, 2011-oatmeal with apples and allspice, yoplait black forrest yogart, 2 cups of coffee raspberry chocolate flavoring, 5 am wake up to get ready for orientation, lunch pasta with red meat sauce, dinner chili baked potatoes

Okay after two months of not really moving as in excerise...then doing strollerize let's just say I am oh so soar..seriously soar.

I was going for a run but then I got the call that the friend from out of state that was suppose to come on Tuesday Jan 4th is coming today. That means the panic run around the house picking up odds and ends, discovering that i am completely out of make up, and running to the store for said makeup and paper for training our new puppy.

My eatting until we went out last night was very healthy. I had yogart with cereal, a baked potato, three wheat tortillas sandwiches with lots of veggies, and dinner was Buffalo Wild Wings. Can you say some poured oil into the gas tank inside of the engine? Yikes, it was good but my stomach did not agree

Day what?? Jan 3rd-4th

2011-01-05T07:56:00.000-08:00

Return of school which means the return to a regular school...

Monday-
No excerise unless you count doing laundry for 5 1/2 hours, and cleaning for over 8 hours as excerise. No lie folks..seriously..that's what I did.
healthy eatting all day long

Tuesday-
60 minutes of strollerize with a personal trainer..love that class. Then came home and straightenedup some more. Good healthy eatting including dh. When our company didn't make it, it was McDonald's for dinner. Way too unhealthy seriously but I was starving so I didn't mind the calories

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

2010-12-27T07:28:00.000-08:00

I have been so awful about getting in a run lately since I got since. I only get in about 1 run a week now. Sometimes its only a walk, but we have a new addition to the family that will help get us all in shape as soon as we can find a collar that won't slip off the neck.

Monday was errand day. OMG! I thought I was going to need a nap after taking almost a month off from running and lifting weights. I sufferred. I just went to bed early.

Tuesday was strollerize boot camp. Gotta love the trainer. She really worked me at a pace that didn't have me wheezing or collapsing. I still got a good work out int.

Wednesday I stayed making Christmas Gifts. I planned on walking down and picking up the kiddos from school. Though, I ran out of time with having to deliver a few Christmas gifts early. I am still making loads of stuff. I am running out of time.

Thursday I took the day off from crafting. I spent walking around and play monster with my friend Robyn's kiddos at an outlet mall. She was recognized as the local hero for her 24 hour run on the tredmill. I walked 2miles after that to pick up my kiddos and bring them home. I made butternut squash soup for hte first time ever. You need lots of s quash to make thick like the resturant versions of it.

Eatting is healthy other than chips.

Excerise: none

This past weekend was rough emotionally for me. I have serve allergies. Not only did they hit full swing, along with finanical stresses with a spouse. No one lost a job just bills in general. Yes, we have always had a problem communication about the real cost of bills. Unfortunately, it usually takes a melt down on both parties part for each one to be heard and something to done about it. So, with that said, those that have my cell number know I have a new cell number, and other items were either cut down to size or cancelled all together.

Thank you, t-mobile for finally letting us out of a contract with you. Since, we didn't have cell service at our location. Thank you for finally doing right by your customer of three years. Since the original mistake was made by an employee not us. *note to all readers t-mobile has the best family packages for phones though if you live near mountains check all areas for service received before getting with them. I will never complain about the bill with t-mobile only the ability to have service. ***

Tuesday: I threw up last night. Apparently, my allergies are totally out of control. I may have more than allergies. Seriously.

So, am miserable.

Wednesday:

No excerise. Food very healthy. not really tracking it. I am just tracking the meds I am on because they are more important. Asthama...I can live without it!!!!

Thursday:

No excerise:

yeah on the situation to the individual with a problem. The said individual agreed to a 30 day contract of certain terms and consquences. So, far so good.

This weekend was awesome. The friend of the individual needing intervention did the best the friend could do on trying to get the individual to see just how far gone the individual is. Kuddos to friend. It scared the friend really bad as to how broke this particular individual is mentally, physically, and spiritually.

I saw a sign this weekend. It totally describes the situation I am currently in.

It says, I'm a badass, your just an ass.

Okay, update on the individual. the individual's boss got the individual and individual's partner a devotional book even dedicated it to the couple. Apparently, its apparent to everyone but the individual.

Day 34 Thursday

2010-10-01T06:17:00.001-07:00

lifted weights 30 mins every area that I could did it
25 min run for 2.07 mis

breakfast: oatmeal with allspice added 8 oz of coke zero
2 16 oz waters
snack bread from a mini chicken sandwich at chickafila
lunch orange chicken my friend made
snack salad with carrots and curtons
dinner potato salad with chocolate milk
1 60 oz coke zero
1 6 oz coke zero

News flash the person that is having an intervention backslide to the starting point last night. I was so mad. Mad probably isn't the exact words to describe the me emotions during the event. This particular persons swears up and down that its ears never heard the word stop. I promise you, the participant involved repeatedly said stop. I want to scream and shout, and just shake this particulat individual senseless but it would not accomplish anything. I knew it was going to be tough but it still is frustrating beyond comprehension.

I will be offline the the rest of the week and weekend. We have company coming in. I do hope the company will see that this individual is in need of more intervention.

Wednesday Day 33

2010-09-30T07:36:00.000-07:00

Excerise 2.02 mis in 25 mins
20 mins weight lifting on legs

diet:
egg whites with cheese and turkey bacon
veggie pattie with hummus gravy
16 oz of coke zero
3 16 oz of water
taco salad for dinner with chocolate milk
lentil dip with saltine crackers with 4 oz of plain milk

Note to self and anyone else making healthy stuff. Lentils and flax seeds mixed together and ingested after ingesting salad makes you into a human skunk. Seriously, i could have run my family out of the house not just out of the room. Okay, not funny when it was happening. Looking back at it, it was rather funny considering that normally I don't get gas that bad. I get gas. I pass the cheese or let the frog in the house etc. Not to the extent.

The spiritual intervention is having a positive affect on the person in my life that needs it. The person still needs to seek medical help. Baby steps do pay off everyone!

Please be blessed.
Please bless others.
Harm to none,
Love in return.
Let it rock and roll
on life's stream of fun.

Monday Day 31

2010-09-27T20:20:00.000-07:00

Okay, after almost three weeks offline due to my computer being possibly hacked. Its back up and running. Thanks DH! Your the best.

During these past three weeks, I have deeply struggled to stay on track, physically, mentally, and emotinally. I have been attacked in always possible to keep from being positive in all areas of my life. It has been the most difficult time for me. Those nearest and dearest know the situations 411 that I am not at liberty to post. Though let's say the cat is out of the bag per say on the situation. Its in the intervention stage for the person who is needing it the most. Its one step at a time, one day at a time, and one prayer at a time. Needless, to say, the heart is much littler, the mind is less blogged down, and I'm following a plan of action thanks to my friends.

I'd like to thank all my friends from the bottom of my heart for being here with me. I could not have gotten through this past month without you. No, I am not stopping this blog. I think its important to those that wish to get healthy, stay healthy, and help others be healthy.

Physically, I have been challenging myself to run 2.10 to 2.50 mis five days a week. I, also, challenged myself to lift weights at four times week. I did that expect for last week. Last week was roller coaster ride, of one that is not made of fun, dreams, and screams. Well, the screams were silent not the thrilling kind either.

I have been struggling wiht eatting healthy too. We have been doing a lot of take out or drive through even though, I choose the lower calorie menu it still has something in it that makes my gall bladder riot like someone's civil rights are being violated. Bad pun, I know just hear me out. They, the right of our body's organs are being violated when we ingest stuff that isn't good for us.

I have been doing much better. I have made a creamy lentil dip for saltine crackers. i made a chick peas sauce for meat or rice. Thanks to my dear friend Robyn. She gave me her food processor that she wasn't using at all. I have to say a big thanks to her because it is a blessing. She also gave me some food that she was no longer going to eat that was extremely healthy. The kiddos discovered it, and they love it. Robyn, I really do believe that your idea is something we should run with. You know what it is girl.

I got the lastest issue of health magazine. They have some awesome articles and recipes that I will be sharing with you in the next couple of weeks.

my menu for the day:
water with koolaide 2 (16 oz)
reg coke (16 oz)
Shell pasta with red garden sauce
2 16 oz of water down sweet tea
lean meat cooked in the oven with italian dumplings topped with seasonsing and cheese, and blackeyed peas (the food not the group)

20 minutes lifting arm weights
25 min run/walk 2.07 mis

Spiritually I am reconnecting not with myself though, I was already doing that with spiritual boot camp, with others spiritually.

Please be blessed.
Please bless others.
Harm to none,
Love in return.
Let it rock and roll
on life's stream of fun.

Thursday day 18 & Friday day 19

2010-09-10T13:44:00.000-07:00

has been a real challenge the las few days. Besides my computer being hacked by viruses, the car battery died, and we had a very bad in school wiht one of my kids.

I have been eatting healthy. I have been excerising healthy. I have been having to distance myself from certain people in my life right now that are just being way too negative to able to have a relationship that I want to with. It breaks my heart to have to distance myself, its the only way to keep from getting pulled under with them. I feel less stressed by this. I am more relaxed by this. I just wish the same could happen for them.
