A Stay At Home Mom’s Day Off Starts Today

Time saving, sanity saving, energy raising tips for Stay-At-Home Moms

No matter what is going on or how busy you may be there is still one thing you have to do everyday. Several times a day. You Eat. When you’re a mom you feed others too. When you are a stay at home mom that means, Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Breakfast, lunch, arggggggg!

Mom, do you want a day off. This week? You can have it every week with these time saving, stay at home mom saving tips.

Save Time, Double Up And, get a mom’s day off from cooking. One way is to “double up.” Specifically, double up every dinner recipe you make this month. Gonna cook for four? Cook for eight instead. One meal goes on the table, the other goes in the fridge.

Another way is to “add extra.” Your recipe calls for a cup of rice and a pound of spinach? Make it a cup and half and a pound and a half. What you don’t eat for dinner turns into a microwave lunch. Still a little “left over”? Freeze it!

Your goal mom – should you decide to take it on – is to cook double enough and extra enough so that you don’t have to cook at all for at least one day a week! We’ll call that day, Mom’s Day Off!

Save Sanity. Swap with another Stay At Home Mom – And, take half a day off from your kids. So many women left mom, grandma and their sisters behind, in another state, when they married the love of their lives. That’s fine and dandy, but they are paying the — click here to read on —

Eat This for Better Blood Sugar and Energy Balance

Eat This for Better Blood Sugar a.k.a. balanced energy throughout your day.

Question for you. When you want to grab a blood-sugar-balancing snack, which is better:
a fresh apple or a slice of rye toast?

Answer. Go for the bread — as long as it’s whole grain.

Getting about 17 grams of grain fiber a day (the kind found in whole-grain breads and
cereals) could slash type 2 diabetes risk by a third, research shows.
And rye bread seems to steady blood sugars best.

When it comes to preventing type 2 diabetes, controlling blood sugar
is what it’s all about. And fiber keeps blood sugar nice and steady,
so you don’t get glucose spikes that send your pancreas into
overdrive.

Psst. Feel like a piece of burnt toast throughout the day? Or maybe your brains feel like scrambled eggs? You might be suffering from adrenal fatigue. Take our free Fatigue Questionnaire at http://fatiguebegone.com/tired_woman_quiz.htm to discover the true causes of fatigue.

10 Ways to Boost Your Energy Today

1. How do you break-your-fast?

Breakfast. My first memories are bleak. I remember being timed to eat food I hated AND being punished for not “gobbling” it down like my power munching older brothers. Mom claims that this is a distorted memory but I don’t think so …

Anyway this early breakfast trauma and drama paved the way for my adult breakfast choices – a cup of coffee and something, on the RUN – maybe.

Honestly, I thought breakfast was a “boring” social obligation. I did understand that most of the world seemed to wake up hungry. I just was never one of them.

These days I still don’t wake up hungry BUT I am busy at the breakfast trough because …

I found out the hard way (years of fatigue, adrenal fatigue, anemia, you-name-it-fatigue) that breakfast is what rules the morning energy gods. It fuels the rest of the day and it is THE fastest and easiest way boost your energy, your mood and promote harmonious interactions with world at large.

These days I have also made peace with my oatmeal past. In fact, I even came up with an Oatmeal Energy Boost Recipe that rocks! Click here to add it to your morning breakfast recipe repertoire – you’ll feel the better for it …

Sparkling Cinnamon, Ginger Water. Ahhhhhh.

This is what I cart around with me instead of sodas or javas. Why?

Benefits of Cinnamon: Can lower LDL cholesterol, may have a regulatory effect on blood sugar, making it especially beneficial for people with Type 2 diabetes and is a great source of manganese, fiber, iron, and calcium. Tastes great. ( I put one of those cinnamon sticks in my water bottle.)

Benefits of Ginger: As a mood enhancer, ginger’s cineole content may help contribute to stress relief. Ginger is also thought to be good for circulation. (I cut up slices of ginger and drop them in.)

Benefits of Water: Oh I could go on and on about this. You know how plants drop when they are starving for water? So do we but instead of reaching for a simple glass of water usually we try to get back in the game with a cup of coffee (further dehydrates) or a fatty, sugary treat (fills us out not up.)

Give this a sip. For an extra tange and exhilaration, drop in a couple tsps of apple cider vinegar.
