Food, fitness, work, baby kicking and tumbling, meditation, preparation, and relaxation; a day in the life of this pregnant lady. These last couple of weeks I have been more focused than ever on eating a ton of nutritious food, working out just enough to feel my best, and sleeping as much as I can. My goal is to try and get in as …
Green juice can be delicious and highly nutritious at the same time. Cucumber, celery, carrots, apples, young thai coconut and ginger; this is my winning fruit and veggie combination that is sure to delight even the pickiest of taste buds. What I love about his juice is that it makes you feel so alive, I get this euphoric feeling after …
The second trimester has been treating me well, and I have been hoping the third trimester, which is slowly creeping up, will treat me just as good. I can already tell the pressure on my bladder, will be a nuisance but nothing I can’t handle, especially after such a rough first trimester, so I say bring it on. I had an …

I am very thankful nausea and severe heartburn are a thing of the past, something I try to forget, now hunger is always present, even after just eating, so I just keep eating. Thankfully I have been living a purified lifestyle for …
Pom Pom mushrooms are the crab meat of mushrooms, which is why they’re the perfect mushrooms for vegan sushi. They may be hard to come by, but if your lucky you may have a farmer that specializes in mushrooms at your local farmers marker. I got these mushrooms from The Mushroom Stand at Central Farmers Market in Bethesda Maryland. I highly …
Thank goodness I’m feeling a million times better in the second trimester, than the first. I was starting to feel like a zombie, but now I’ve actually been able to workout and eat somewhat normally again. Hurray! We find out the gender next Friday, I can hardly wait, my intuition is telling me it’s a boy, Dominick thinks it’s a boy …
What an exciting few months it has been, at the very beginning of the year Dominick and I found out we are expecting! Since then it has been anything but smooth sailing.
