The diet......

Tanya asked in my previous post about the diet im on and ive been taking photos (to scrap of course lol) of my daily routine on the Candida diet its essentially a strict diet im on for the next 8 days (its for 2 weeks im nearly half done woot woot) Im not allowed alot of things no mushrooms,no dairy,no caffiene,no breads,no pasta,no processed meats and no chocolate or sugar (I seriously nearly cried at the last one lol those that know me know I LOVE sweet stuff!) along with a heap of other things the list is as long as my arm lol The naturopath has given me a meal plan,some herb drink (ugh its like a mixture of potpourri,cough medicine and manky water all mixed into a little brown bottle lol) So anywhoo heres the diet
Before breakfast: Zinc drink-looks harmless enough but oh boy did it knock me off my feet for a couple of days ...im not a fan lol The herb drink-note the delicious brown colouration mmmm tasty lol

Breakfast: An omelette made with leek,onion,eschallots and 2 organic eggs ....holey dooley those bad boys are exy!The inner stinge in me argued with myself at the egg department in woolies ......."But Tony said you have to......but they are soooooo dear...I could buy 3 of the cheap cartons for that!" lol I quickly took a deep breath and deposited them in the most expensive basket of groceries Ive ever bought and raced to the checkout lol
Snack: 1 piece of fruit-apple.banana or pear

Before lunch: More delicious herb drink

Lunch: 1 palm of meat (can be organic chicken,grain fed beef,turkey,fish,lamb-I think NOT!lol) Day 1 I went for the organic chook and my 2 palms worth of steamed vegies


Snack: 12 nuts I picked macadamias

Before dinner: More herb drink.....usually holding my nose to drink it at this stage of the day lol

Dinner: Im allowed to have roasts,stews,same as lunch or stirfrys with my "Allowed vegies" This is my super yummy stirfry (The pan is a mini one lol im not eating a massive fry pans worth lol) made with organic beef oh my this stuff is delicious!!

Im also keeping a dream diary....hehehe if anything its worth a giggle ....last nights dream involved me being bitten by 2 small monkeys :O yep im weird lol and I usually have 2 dreams a night so he is going to get double the read lol

So thats my life for the past 6 and coming 8 days :) I feel "better" not sluggish or bleh like I had been so it must be working....my newly aquired double chin from the last few months is gone again :D My clothes are falling off me so im guessing ive lost about 2kgs...thats not the idea of the diet but obviously my body had lots of toxins to dispose of or perhaps its the no carbs and no sugar thing :$ Im having Bowen therapy when I go back for my next visit,so we'll see how that goes too :) It'll all be worth it in the end ...hopefully :) Cross your fingers for me pretty please :)

If you survived reading this long thanks for sticking with it lol and sorry if I bored you lol

Pickin daisies

This is my LO I created for the Get Picky inspiration challenge this month :) I based it on one of my sketches and used the "Life is good" kit from the shop :) I added some of my MVB creations to the kit-a butterfly critter,a couple of covered buttons and some cloud buttons :) I was inspired by the stripes in the inspiration photo,the bunting and the yummy colour scheme :)

Anywhoo enough waffling from me here's the LO

MVB critter :) The fliers set is Morgans favourite :)

some fussy cutting and bits and bobs from the MVB range :)

Ive bought all of the furniture for my princess studio now :D Once the floor has been levelled we can lay the floating floor and I can start constructing all the flat pack goodies and move all the shop stock in woooooohoooooooo!!So excited!
Today is day one of my new diet set by the naturopath...wish me luck!

Thanks for all your lovely comments lately *mwah*

All I ever wanted....

I was inspired by Kerrys challenge during the cybercrop this weekend at Wicked Princesses and couldnt resist scrapping one of my favourite photos from Al and I's wedding :) *sigh* I loved my wedding day :) It wasnt fancy or huge it was our closest friends and family coming together to share our special day and it was perfect, theres nothing Id change :)

I used the new vintage kit this month at Wicked Princesses "Lost and found" is a devine kit perfect for scrapping any theme with a hint of vintageness :D I added a 2crafty cherry blossom (because since I ordered them in its been "looking" at me begging me to use one lol) Im really pleased with how its come together :) Okies enough of my waffliing ...




Im loving paint at the moment....can you tell? lol

Today Al and I spent the afternoon shopping for furniture for the "Princess studio" :D OMG it was fun! My bank balance is reeling but hey I need somewhere nice to put all my shop stock hey! Ive gone for all white furniture with clean lines everywhere yummo its going to be so so nice :D Im super excited about downstairs almost being finished .....will have to organise a crop to christen it I think! If you live in the Brisbane area and would like to come along leave me a comment with your email :D
