Easy Swaps For Your Diet That Deliver Big Results

As you go about your fat loss diet, rather than aiming to make an entire diet overhaul and change practically everything that you’re eating, try and focus on just making minor alterations that can have a big influence on your total calorie intake and the progress you make.

Those who do attempt that big diet overhaul tend not to fair very well because they are quick to fall off the program entirely and just feel overwhelmed during the process.

By taking small steps and making one or two adjustments here or there, it becomes that much more manageable and something that you can easily stick with.

101 Recipes for Gluten-Free Microwave Mug Cakes Giveaway Winner

Congratulations to the winner of the 101 Recipes for Gluten-Free Microwave Mug Cakes Giveaway from Microwave Mug Cakes, written by Stacey J. Miller. And the winner is #92, SLS(atlmuzikfanzinc) you have won. I used random.org to determine the winner.

Stacy was on the Rachel Ray Show back in June. Stacy had come across a mug cake recipe and loved it and when she tried to find other recipes she could not find any, so she decided to make her own recipes. She started out with the 101 Microwave Mug Cakes and now has the Gluten-Free version of the book.

Split Pea Soup

This is the perfect time of year for cooking split pea soup. I don’t know about you, but in the summer when temperatures are hot and fresh vegetables are abundant, I have no interest in pea soup, but six months later in the cold of winter, it’s just perfect.

Pea soup has not always been a favorite of mine. In fact, I wouldn’t eat it for years, but I have learned to really enjoy it. This recipe contains the ingredients that I personally enjoy in the soup, particularly potatoes. However, you might like adding carrots or other vegetables.

CSN Stores Upcoming Review

I was contacted by a representative from CSN Stores. She asked if I would do a review a product from their store on my blog, and of course I said, Yes! You would not believe the merchandise that they carry. They carry a little bit of everything, from home decor to bread machines and more. Check out their laptop messenger bag.

Here is a one I like.

I decided to do a review on this hand mixer, which is what I need for my gluten-free lifestyle. I can’t wait until it comes so that I can tell you all about it.
In the meantime, check out CSN Stores, you can click on their website for a full list of categories they carry. Happy Shopping.

So check back with me in a few weeks for my review on Lisa’s Gluten-Free Advice and Healthy Living.

Brain Fog

Have you experienced “Brain fog”? It is one of the symptoms of celiac disease/gluten intolerance. “Brain fog” can be described as any one of these symptoms:

  • Difficulty Concentrating
  • Mental Confusion
  • Forgetfulness
  • Detached
  • Grogginess

Many patients with celiac disease and gluten intolerance experience “brain fog”, the term is not yet understood by the medical community.

The National Foundation for Celiac Awareness has recognized that this is an important area in need for dedicated study. In an effort to provide some of the information needed to carry out this study, NFCA is collecting information from people with celiac disease about this important symptom.

Subway Going Gluten-Free?


Subway is testing gluten-free sandwich buns and gluten-free brownies at 700 locations in Dallas and East Texas. If it is successful expect it to be available nationwide.
According to Celiac.Com and QSR Web the gluten-free sandwich buns and gluten-free brownies will come prepacked and individually wrapped. The same worker will prepare the sandwich from beginning to end and will be trained on how to cut the sandwich buns with a pre-wrapped knife for one time use, to avoid cross-contamination. The bread is made of egg whites, corn starch and tapioca starch. The brownie is made of potato starch, cocoa and sugar.
Subway was always one of my favorite places to eat before I found out that I am gluten intolerant. Now it seems that I might be able to eat there again. Now if we could just get Papa Murphy’s to serve gluten-free pizza, Papa Murphy’s is another favorite restaurant of mine that I wish I could eat at. We who are gluten intolerant and have celiac disease can contact restaurants and tell them that they need to have gluten free options in their menu and be persistent, they will get the idea.
Check out my list of Gluten-Free Restaurants.
