How Far Along: Well I guess the title of this post gives it away but 12 weeks today.. officially in the "safe" zone as they say. Due November 19th.. Jackson arrived on his due date and Cam came one day before so I'm expecting a baby on November 18th, my best friend Krista's birthday :) Jackson was born on her wedding anniversary so it only makes sense that Big 3 comes on her bday too, … [Read more...]

If you did not read my last WIAW check it out here for a disclaimer on the purpose and my intention of these types of posts.

Here’s What I’m Obsessed With This Week
Do I sound like Andy Cohen from Watch What Happens Live? Good, cuz that's what I was going for.

What's your take on juice cleanses? Are they healthy or harmful? Is there a "right" and "wrong" way to do them? Alix here...I'm a big fan of cold pressed green juice and I'm a regular at our local Pressed, but I am not a fan of juice cleanses. Our body is well equipped with kidneys and a liver to do all the detoxification we need. Juice cleanses are low in calories (aka energy!), protein, … [Read more...]
Why I’m a “Non-Diet” Dietitian
I once had a client who referred their co-worker to see me for weight loss. The co-worker told my client that they had an appointment with me the following week, and commented that they should eat all their favorite foods now because I would likely tell them they couldn’t eat them anymore. My client’s response was priceless, “Oh no, she is not that kind of dietitian!" When I'm meeting … [Read more...]

Should our kids even being really having snacks? Many popular brands like Clif and Rx are making a "Jr." version for the kiddos.

Homemade Almond Milk + New Smoothie Recipe
I know the idea of making your own almond milk at home seems a little daunting and maybe even like a waste of time because it is so much easier to just buy almond milk at any grocery store. But, I promise it is actually pretty simple and cost effective (which makes my husband happy) to make your own. It also tastes significantly better than anything you can buy in the store (and I’ve tried A LOT … [Read more...]
