Good Girl Moonshine and our diet


Good Girl Moonshine or GGMS as it is called in the Trim Healthy Mama world has many variations out there.  I've tried the original and the second generation but didn't really care for the original though I did like the second generation.  I've always liked "The Republic of Tea's Blackberry Sage tea" so I thought why don't I invent my own GGMS based on that and the results are not too bad.  I need to tweak a few things.  I'm very sensitive to caffeine so I only used one bag of oolong tea and two bags of decaf tea.  I need a stronger tea taste so I need to add more tea than just three bags.  I used fresh blackberries and fresh sage (garden is being overrun with sage right now), ginger powder and apple cider vinegar.  Because I do not like sweet tea there is no sweetener in mine but certainly one could add stevia if they like it sweet.  I cannot taste the sage at all so I would probably add a little bit more of that as well.  Still taste very good and this is my sipper for today.  Once I have the recipe just right I will post the recipe.

As for the food, well so far I have no complaints about the food, in fact last night's dinner was a huge success with everyone (Andrew and Rachael)!  I made pizza casserole and it was very tasty.  My favorite thing I've made thus far is the no noodle lasagna, yummy!

I know you shouldn't weigh yourself every day and this week I haven't been but today I stepped on the scale for the first time since our weigh in day of Sundays.  I haven't lost any more weight BUT I haven't gained any either.  I was hoping to have lost at least another pound.  I've been doing this for two weeks approximately and am down 7 pounds and Bill is down 10!  Men!  They always lose faster.

Anyway, things are going great and we are going to keep trucking on!
