New Fav Smoothie

My Recent Smoothie Obsession :

So no idea why this is my new thing. I go through phases, maybe you do too where you love something then you transition to eating something else (I am talking about food this time lol). 

I will get on routine where I eat the same thing for breakfast over and over and then some how be inspired to change it up. This is no different.

If you have followed me at all you know I eat alot of overnight oats. I love the texture and taste of that with fruit, my protein, and nut butter and flax seed, or other seeds etc. Maybe it is the summer time and heat but I recently started having more smoothies – I am talking fully blended (I still want that spoon action though). 

You may be familiar with the Fab Four smoothie RD – @bewellwithKelly created for her clients and it went mainstream. Well this is very very similar- but I use my own stuff lol. 

I love this smoothie for a few reasons :

Taste (duh)

Its packed with healthy fiber to keep me fuller longer so no snacking.

I can eat it on the go (sometimes) and if I make it less thick I can totally drink it in the car.

I am getting all of my vitamins needs along with important antioxidants and immune boosting minerals.

I can easily change up the combo and still get the same benefits.

So what is in this thing I am now digging so much??

 

It consists of a breakdown that is pretty simple:

 Some sort of plant based protein or collagen/ bone broth style protein powder (I use my DNS every day!)

  • this is great for recovery and muscle and bone health as well as gut health if you are using a bone broth or collagen variety) – side note ALWAYS look at the ingredients if it is loaded with stuff you cannot pronounce then run! Here are some of my favorites.

Some sort of Fruit like a berry 1/4-1/2 cup frozen is preferred 

  • Berries like strawberries, blueberries and cherries are great because they are low on the glycemic index so they wont spike blood sugar like some can. They are also great for antioxidant health and benefits. Fighting free radicals and even skin!

Greens – about 1 cup (can be frozen or fresh) (anything like spinach, kale, even zucchini works well)

  • You know you need your greens (you could also use a greens powder if that is more your jam like this one – however make sure you pay attention to what is in it because the flavors of that plus the smoothie may not exactly um…. taste all that great.

Healthy fat – nut or seed butter or avocado or coconut oil (I alternate between sunflower butter, cashew and avocado)

  • We NEED healthy fats. They help support our joints, our digestion and can even help our blood and brain health too. With butters make sure to look at the label, the less sugar and the less added junk the better. You also want to steer away from any canola and even palm oil for some.

Fiber from hemp/flax or chia seeds (also good doses of omega 3’s too!) (love these)

  • Chia seeds can give you a crunchier taste and make it a little thicker, hemp and flax are both more nutty and hemp even provides a great plant based protein to the mix. I would aim for 1 TBSP of one of these.

1 scoop of collagen powder (unless you are using it for your protein)

  • ( I love primal kitchen foods collagen – you can save with code CANDICECFITNESS at checkout here )
  • Collagen is GREAT for our overall health – it supports our joints and ligaments and tendons and can help rebuild the gut lining too. Again like everything else – look at those labels!!

Stevia or natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup

  • Natural is always the best bet when it comes to sweeteners, however you still want to be mindful when using honey or maple syrup or something like agave- they are really heavy in natural sugars and too much of a good thing IS possible – aim for a tsp or so.

Milk of preference

  • I like milkadamia or califia farms – you can also use a soy or flax or coconut just pay attention so you are not overdoing one thing – like coconut milk then coconut oil, etc.

 

Overall smoothies like this are a great easy option to get nutrient dense foods in first thing in the morning. To set your day off on the right foot if you will. You should stay fuller longer due to all the fiber too! You can always get creative and add spices like cinnamon or turmeric or even ginger if that is more your jam.

I did this “hormonal detox” and here is what happened……

I did this “hormonal detox” and here is what happened……

Why did I do this…..

Here is the thing. I just got over Covid and I put more medicines in my body that I typically don’t take. On top of that I have had hormonal issues for a long time. I have been working on them with my functional doctor, but long story short I have REALLY low levels of both progesterone, and estrogen. 

A little backstory- I was put on birth control when I was 15 and took it forever, got off it for a few years around 2011 then got back on around 2015. That entire time I was off of it I never had a period- I took synthetic forms of the hormones per my Dr. but nothing helped. Then I got back on it and then stopped again at the beginning of this year and lets just say history has repeated itself. Being that Chad and I are now a year into marriage I want to get these under control. 

I am well versed on cycle syncing and have implemented many of those practices but it is hard to tell where I really am in my cycle if you will… I can definitely tell by eating and working out the way prescribed for cycle syncing I have the highs and lows when I should which makes me feel like things are moving in the right direction, I never imagined it would be quick, however it is taking.a hot minute. 

So ENTER this 4 day hormonal detox I found from Alissa Vitta – 

I am someone who is NOT a fan of juice cleanses or anything like that. I believe in autophagy where fasting can kill off cells however this is a different approach by eating more foods but WHOLE foods lots of veggies and not a lot of protein. Not to mention this is 4 days so I can do this….. Right? Ugh.

 

Here is how it went – 

Day 1 – 

It is funny how after you are sick or down it is so much easier to get motivated to do something healthy right?? Or maybe it is just me. Anyways the first day was not that hard. I woke up- was actually happy to have fruit to start the day. Yall I love my overnight oats and protein like it is my FAVORITE plus my nutbutter…. and I get none of that, and was excited. Who am I?

This was the first day I got to go back to work in the gym so I got to get out of the house. It was fabulous lol. Went and trained two clients then came home before my virtual ones and ate lunch. Lunch consisted of a salad that I would never typically eat – celery, cucumber, arugula, artichoke, carrots (all raw) with olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Honestly it is not terrible, I just am not used to eating raw stuff like that and I do not believe my stomach likes them too much. I also had about a half cup of brown rice and cod. The brown rice made my life I had it with coconut aminos, green onions, radishes and olive oil. So that did not suck. However I was STARVING before dinner.

I worked out after clients – then had 1/.2 a scoop of my DNS powder because I felt like my blood sugar or something was low. Probably shouldn’t have worked out….. live and learn.

Dinner then consisted of a minestrone soup (she calls it that) with lentils. I honestly don’t think I have ever had lentils. Not bad though but definitely didnt fill me up. I realized this day just how much I do eat protein.

Went to bed hungry but was proud of sticking to what I did.

Day 2 – 

Woke up wondering why I did this once again I just wanted my damn oats! I had a half scoop of my DNS though before coffee (which don’t know if thats supposed to be allowed but oh well) then did my devotionals and reading and went for a run. Then had my fruit – this time though I heated it up! Much better btw. And I dont know if I added I top it with flaxseed meal plus cinnamon. I had half a suja green juice too like recommended and chlorella tabs.Then it was off to train.

Yall omg by lunch I have not been hungry like that in forever. I have been drinking a TON of water and I have been using ultima for electrolytes now because liquid iv sadly has made me nauseas since Covid. Weird how stuff like that happens. Anyways, I had a chiro appointment and had to eat before or I might die (no really). So I did something I have not done in a while and ate in my car. Same wild cod and brown rice and salad as yesterday and I instantly felt better. However it was short lived.

Got home and was starving again so I had another scoop of DNS powder – figure it is vegan and is used in the liver detox I have done so i doubt it is that big of a problem…. who knows- still proud of myself for doing good so far despite that. 

Did some work trained another virtual client and then my stomach started…. it took everything in me to wait until 7 which is around when I normally eat dinner to eat. Then I had my soup again…. and yes still hungry when I went to bed. I think it messed with my sleep too as I couldn’t fall asleep which lately has not been an issue. I even did a epsom salt bath like she recommended. Oh well. One more day!!

 

 

Day 3 – 

Woke up hungry again- slept like crap and had a headache, decided today I am going to take a rest day. I forgot to mention too that along with all of the food there is also self care things she recommends each day. Like decluttering something, going through the kitchen and throwing out anything with fake stuff in it, writing down things that you are thankful for, Epsom salt baths etc.

This morning was a little different…. I decided to make my own juice. I have this nice breville juicer that I rarely use… mainly because it is hard to manuever it in our kitchen. Next home will be different lol. So I made a green juice and yalllll it was tart and sour af. Made chad drink some too…. he did! I also had my fruit again, coffee and DNS (I had to).

For some reason todays lunch was different. Quinoa, half an avocado 🥑  (insert happy dance) lentils and flax meal plus salad. It was a ton better than the fish BUT I was still hungry. Yall this is a lot of food honestly it is so I do not get it. Maybe it is because of sugars I don’t realize I have more of? Ugh.Anyways I ate it.

Dinner was another good ol serving of soup… I don’t really know what else to say about that one except I was hungry not long after lunch and then dinner did not help. I added some greens again and some broccoli which was good, but I was still hungry……

 

 

 

Day 4 – 

The last day was awful….. I do not know what is happening right now to be honest. It is really messing with my sleep I could not sleep at all woke up a ton to pee like before but it still was just not what I had envisioned this detox being like. 

I had the same breakfast but I added a whole 2 scoops of DNS on the side today to see if it would help. I think it did somewhat.

Fast forward to lunch and I was glad to eat the rest of my fish and brown rice but was still really hungry. The salad I think was messing with stomach too. To be honest not sure if this was exactly a great idea.

Dinner was a ton of cooked greens and quinoa so no soup thankfully. It was better but still tomorrow I CANNOT WAIT. 

My energy just felt off and I really felt SUPER anxious ALL day. It is weird because I have been on an anxiety medicine for years (there is NO shame in that yall). It also is not the time of the month where I should be anxious – this should be a few weeks…. so wondering if the detoxing is messing with my hormones but not in a positive way….. again not sure if I should have done this.

 

 

 

My conclusion/ Follow up with days after – 

To be honest – I really don’t know if I should have done this. I have always been on the super low hormone side (meaning I have low estrogen, progesterone and testosterone) I have been this way for years and part of the reason why Dr.’s always told me to take birth control because it helps you have a “fake” period so your body thinks its hormones are normal. That is also part of the problem, not having enough of those hormones then stopping after years its easy to understand that it is not just jumping  back to normal levels now. 

So as I am writing this part of it I am about 4 days after the detox. And up until literally today I have had anxiety and low mood (depression) like symptoms since. I have trouble turning my mind off to go to sleep and it was like I was wired and tired but my eyes wouldn’t shut. I hate that – and that is typically an indicator of cortisol imbalance. We have done a good job of getting mine under control so if I messed it up….. yalllllll I am going to hurt someone. 

I did some research though as well and found out that alot of these foods and I was also taking too much chlorella (which I didn’t realize was possible ) and as a result when I take them at certain times with my other meds it could have caused my liver to detox the other stuff too quick which means I was not getting my adequate dosing which could make me anxious after a few days (like it would be if I stopped taking it). Maybe it made my hormones too low too? I am NOT a doctor so I am just hypothesizing here. Luckily I do work for my doctor though so I am getting blood work later this week and we will see where they lay.

Overall I do NOT think this is a bad thing to do- but I think you really should ask a doctor before doing anything like this. I should have. I have done simple liver detoxes as mentioned before but none like this or none that made me feel this way. I am sure this could definitely benefit some people and who knows maybe I am just a pansy lol. 

I am definitely going to be adding more REAL veggies into my diet though, and it definitely helped me realize how important having a variety of plants in rotation on your diet is a big key in health. I need to get out of my same ol’ routine and try more things for added benefits. For example I am adding arugula to more of my salads now, and I am adding radishes and going to do more juicing with my Breville – seriously I do like that thing! I am still going to take chlorella at times too – there is a lot of research in how beneficial it is for us and our overall health you just need to take the right amounts! (whoopsie).

This also definitely re emphasized how IMPORTANT individualized health plans are. How important it is to work with someone who knows their stuff and not just read a blog and decide you are an expert (yes I have def done that). As I mentioned I do believe that this could be beneficial to a lot of women especially those with PCOS or are really estrogen dominant because it can help rid of those higher excess levels.

Anyways – thats all. If you want to find out more about what. I did head on over to Intheflo.com and you can find out more there! I do trust her!!

The Covid Saga Continues….

The Covid Saga Continues….

So as I am writing this I am coming up on 3 weeks since getting sick. Exposure I am pretty sure has already surpassed 3 weeks.

Currently I am FRUSTRATED. I feel fine have been symptom free for about a week (thank you Lord), however now I have to test negative to get back to life. Please do not get me wrong I 100% understand to test negative to go back to work and be around others because we really know NOTHING about this disease. However- there has to be something about this virus we do not know if it can come back positive for multiple weeks after symptoms subside. I have heard from multiple people they have gone through the same. Why is this the case? Is it still contagious? Is it just left over?? You better believe I am going to use some nose and sinus rinse tonight, and tomorrow before I test again.

The past few days:

So in my last post (catch up if you missed it) I ended around the time I took my second test – the first of many I might add in hopes to be negative. That was a little over a week ago. 

I tested positive – I got the results last Wednesday. Since then I took a test on Friday (currently waiting on those results) and then I took two yesterday (Monday) one was a rapid test and it came back positive still…. again I feel basically 100% now. I imagine the other two will be positive as well, thankfully my insurance covers all Covid testing. Chad still hasn’t gotten one of his tests back from over two weeks ago, its pretty ridiculous, and yet he has gotten a bill from the urgent care where he took it…. you better believe that will not get paid without results.

I am trying to schedule another rapid for tomorrow. (just keep hitting refresh on that screen to the right).  Then possibly again Thursday and Friday. I just want to feel ok being around others and I want to go back to work. 

 

 

What I have been up to :

Backing it up to last week where I left off – I filmed some stuff for Youtube – trained some virtual clients – read alot (a GREAT book is Untamed by – Glennon Doyle) Highly recommend!  – and researched stuff alot. I have also been able to start working out again too. Starting slow then progressing as I go.

I can definitely tell I have more trouble breathing with cardio- even just walking is a challenge if it is too hot. I can deep breathe (diaphragmatic) when I am at home and throughout the day but when I try to implement it during a workout like I used to do it is not possible yet. It is crazy though because I have not had too bad of symptoms in regards to chest tightness and congestion that so many speak of yet I have this. This morning I did my first “run” since getting sick – it was not terrible but it definitely had to be intervals. Going to use this as my starting point and try to work time off every day or so. #OutOfShapeQueen 

 

 

 

We went to the lake over the weekend and it was great – just being in the sun I think did wonders for my soul and mindset. Vitamin D really does make such a difference. 

In Atlanta our mayor implemented a mandate to wear masks in public which I am all about – however so many people are wanting to call it “political’. If I may get on my little soap box for a moment let me say this:

  • SHUT UP and wear the damn mask! 😷 . It is NOT political it is the right thing to do. You may not be a high risk person but the person you see at work, or the gas station or the grocery store may be, and they are trying to be safe. Not to mention even if you are not high risk take it from me – you do not want to be out of work (more than likely) and stuck at home and secluded for a month if not longer due to having to wait to test negative. If you are someone who does not fall into this bucket good for you- but most of us are not. This virus is not made up- it is real, I did NOT have a cold or the flu, the headache I had was one I cannot describe and everyone who has had it even mildly that I talked to has said the same. You get disoriented, you get nauseas, you cannot stand up or focus for multiple days. So yea don’t wear your mask and I will say a prayer you do not get it or someone you come into contact with. (because the guilt from getting this is REAL too- you may not think so but just wait – you don’t protect yourself it is just a matter of time). Read my last post if you havent. 

Ok done with that – 

So yea I have gotten out some – do not worry I have been masked and sanitized. I sat in my car for almost 3 hours waiting on my rapid test yesterday and then I went to the next one and waited another hour at CVS to get one. Surprisingly I didn’t die from not eating (I left around 11:30am and got done around 4pm and if you know me you know I get HANGRY). Could be just because I have been cooped up so much? Who knows – but my patience was real lol.

So now we wait…….

Hopefully I will hear something soon from the Friday test but considering the rapid was positive then I am not expecting anything good. Then I try all day to sit and hit refresh to make an appointment for tomorrow (I learned from a client how to work the system with the rapid tests) 😂 Y’all this is what my life has come to.

We still owe my step dad a Fathers Day Weekend at the lake but cannot plan that until I am better since he is older and has kidney disease. 

We would love to plan our anniversary/honey moon but that I am sure is not in the near future especially since I have been out of work for the most part and Chad isn’t exactly back to where he was pre covid either… but I know considering most we are lucky. We will get there at some point. 

It is honestly kind of crazy in regards to our relationship as I feel like we have been affected in a positive way – we have grown closer, despite being so close (and yall being an only child who likes her space this is speaking volumes- maybe its the separate beds lol?? )

 

He is even more and more on board for filming stuff with me – he has been watching Zac Efrons new show on Netflix that is exploring so much that is wrong with the world and how other countries are doing things differently than the US and what we can learn from them. He watched one on France last night and it was about water quality – and yall he drinks about 5 smart waters a day… and he learned we do not want the purified / filtered water but we NEED the minerals in spring water and other more natural sources (NOT TAP). And he came home with 4 different types this morning and said lets do a taste test for youtube – baby steps guys!!  😝  Stay tuned for that!

I Had Covid-19 and I Have RA

I Had Covid-19 and I Have RA

I hesitated even sharing this- but I know I should….

I hesitated because of the mental side of shame I have felt this past week along with the physical illness of it.

I hesitated because I feel judged- even by those closest to me.

I hesitated because I am human.

I got sick about 11 days ago. It got worse quick, I got tested, (sat in line in my car for FOUR hours and got tested). It came back positive a few days a later.

I had been around too many people in the days prior. Where did I get it? What did I do to deserve it? I have an autoimmune disease…. what if I end up in the hospital? I have heard it gets progressively worse.

How do i tell my clients? My work? My family? My pregnant best friend I was just with two days ago? Do I tell them? Maybe the test is wrong…. What about my father in law that has diabetes, COPD and heart disease?? I saw him a few days ago. I had a headache that day…. why did I go to dinner if I did??

All of these things were going through my head.

At first I wanted to just believe I had a bad sinus infection. My husband wanted me to just be overreacting – but I knew it was more. We had our nieces staying with us- thankfully I stayed away most of the time and sprayed all the things multiple times a day with medical grade hospital cleaner…. but did that work? I mean they had to fly back to Arizona in a few days what if they get sick or infect others??? 

The guilt- the questions – the unknown- that is what has been the hardest part. 

The physical side of it – The First Days

I started feeling sick in the afternoon – I wanted to just tell myself it was a sinus infection – maybe an RA flare that was making me feel the aches and pains like fevers do. Then I took my temperature. I never run fevers – hell I typically am around 97ish not even 98 but that is for another day…. It read 99.7…. yup something is wrong. So I try to get a virtual appointment to get a test- got one, someone would call me after to schedule the test…. have yet to get that call 12 days later. I saw the next day I could get a free test at a church so i went,,, along with 300 others in their cars. We were literally blocked in- if you wanted to leave it was not happening so you just had to sit….. and wait. 

One positive though is I think since I was toward the tail end I got my results quicker, so that Sunday night as we were sitting on the couch I got a text … and Chad instantly moved to the other side of the couch. I then instantly moved into the guest room.

That day I had a migraine from hell, I laid in bed all day – still had the slight fever, and body and muscle aches, but the headache and nausea was the worst part….

On top of all of that now I had to think about the next morning how was I going to tell people? Should I tell people? Of course I should but I was scared.

I told my boss and doctor and everyone I worked with- they were all so kind that was a HUGE blessing. Then I had to tell others – sent messages and emails – lots of “hope you get better soon” but that was it…. then I see mass emails go out and I start to feel like I have the plague, I am the leper but Jesus is no where to be found to heal me in this moment.. but I know he is with me and I am learning something through this.

When my best friend (who is pregnant) said she had to leave the store she was in because she started crying hysterically because of (me) … gut punch is all I could feel. She has every right to be scared I mean hell shes pregnant and we know NOTHING about what this ultimately can do to pregnant women. 

Then there are my clients – thank goodness I was not around a lot of them the week prior some were traveling and a lot are still doing virtual. That right there I am thankful for. Still telling them was hard, silence from some but then kindness but then I am also second guessing everything. Feeling guilty because I may be ruining vacations and there Fourth of July’s from unknowns and being around family just because they were around me…. then there is the thought of if they will ever even want to come near me again…. it was all so much on top of feeling like general crap…. no one really talked about this side of it.

The next few days….

 

Ugh – the headache – it literally makes me not see straight. I felt loopy. I felt dizzy. I felt floaty….. and I have this knot on my forehead too which is weird and it hurts like hell.

But if this is the worst of it- I WILL TAKE IT ALLLLL DAY

That Monday I started having some chest tightness and congestion- that started to worry me, but it never got terrible. I ordered a gazillion things off instacart to help… which they didn’t. The sinus and congestion stuff made me feel sicker, the only thing that seemed to help was peppermint oil and sweating it out through steam. I got vitamin d3 drops and vitamin C powder and started taking a lot of that. Surprisingly it helped.

I couldn’t have coffee anymore it is still even making me nauseas. This makes me very sad lol. 

Each day goes on- and thankfully Chad is still ok. Poor guy had his office shut down because of me- so he feels like he has the plague too even though he feels fine. That is killing my super extroverted husband like crazy. Now we are envisioning this coming weekend and the fourth of July. Typically we would be at the lake, but that is surely not happening now.

Come Thursday and Friday we get results that his dad is fine- thank you Jesus! Chad is still waiting on his last two tests he has taken three. 

Our friends we were with the weekend before I got sick have now tested positive (three of them)  and have the same symptoms as me. Then some have tested negative- so strange as I thought this was so contagious… or are the tests wrong? All these thoughts are annoying. However in a strange way I am thankful these women have it with me even if I may have caught it from them, thankfully we are all generally healthy so it seems to be mild in us.

The Following Weekend – wait I have RA why am I ok?

 

I got outside in the sun for a little while and OMG it felt SOOOOO good. I cannot even describe how good it felt. And do not worry NO ONE was near me.

I still have the headache. But I am maybe 85% human now.

But what about RA? Aren’t I high risk? I have inflammation….

So my Dr. recommended I get a shot of steroids to help. And I did I think it was Wednesday or Thursday – hell all the days run together. It really did help a decent bit the next day the headache was not as bad and I felt like I could read a book without getting nauseas which made the book nerd in me very happy.

As far as my autoimmune disease- could it be because I have been on hydroxychloriquine for my RA for a while? Could it be because I have been taking ashwagnda and other calming supplements to help decrease cortisol? Who knows – but I am thankful. If I had been diagnosed with this in April I would have been freaking out, but seeing how I feel overall it gives me hope that maybe it is not as bad for everyone (I know some it has hit hard and I am not discrediting that) but in a strange way it gives me hope.

My symptoms

At first – headache, mild fever, aches, pains

Then moved to just a headache and nausea with some stomach upset off and on.

Then some chest tightness and congestion – nothing ever terrible though.

Slight loss of taste and smell around day 6.

Headache and fatigue still present around day 11.

What I took to help

I took Tylenol ( I hate taking it especially because of my liver but it helped the aches and to sleep at night)

I tried Sinus AM and PM stuff from CVS- The PM made me sleep forever (not hating it) the AM made me dizzy and nauseas

I added Vitamin D3 drops and did 5-6 drops 3x a day

I added Vitamin C powder – 1/4 tsp 2x a day in water

I was already on ashwaganda and l theanine for cortisol 2x day

I was already on my ritual vitamins daily

I was already on NAC tabs for my liver 2x a day

I also continued my DNS powder daily

I stopped liquid IV because it was making me nauseas 🙁

I was on hydroxychloriquine for my RA treatment ( I started this about 6 months ago)

I also took my other meds…. 

(Ps you can find ALL my favorite stuff plus discount codes here.)

So here we are…..

Day who knows what…. and I am feeling a little better –

I got tested again. I need two negative tests to get back to life. The Department of Health has said it can come back positive for a month… prayers please it does not. The woman who did my test yesterday I think touched my brain with the swab so if one is going to be positive it will be that one lol. 

I went for a walk yesterday and it was not the easiest sadly. My chest felt tight but it was not undoable even in 90 degree plus heat. Now I slowly start trying to workout again. My body is in the worst shape ever and that alone is another stress. I cannot be a trainer and out of shape. But I am not going to go down that rabbit hole. I will be ok. I will be ok. I will be ok. THIS IS TEMPORARY. Right?

Overall I am thankful like I have said. I have a few people I can be with because we have had it together but still I can see how the loneliness can get to people. 

I pray none of you reading this get it, and if so get it worse than what I have had. I don’t get this virus or what is happening in our world, but I know something is happening to get our attention. I am changed because of it, I hope you are too in a good way that is.

As always I will keep you updated on any changes- stay healthy yall, wear your masks and don;’t make stupid decisions.
