Portion Control – DIY Snack Bowl

June 8, 2018 by admin Leave a Comment

Control your portion with this DIY Snack Bowl 

Making my own snack bowl to control my portions and save money. This bowl has dates, cheese, cashews, and grapes. I used a 2 cup Pyrex bowl with lid. Use this bowl to create a healthy snack bowl. This bowl holds my morning and afternoon snack. 

I keep myself accountable by using Pyrex bowls, I use the 1 cup, 2 cup, and 4 cup.

I wish Pyrex made a glass half cup size with lid, it would be a perfect set.

I’ll keep you posted on my weight loss using my bowls.

Homemade Shea Body Butter

Homemade Shea Body Butter for Natural Hair !!!

body-butter

When I say body butter it’s just that, I use this homemade Shea butter from head to toe. I start with my hair to seal in moisture and proceed to use it all over my body to soften my skin. This is one DIY project I will continue to use because it so simple to make. I have made it several times and changed the essential oil for variety in scent.

  • 1/2 cup Shea butter
  • 1/4 cup Coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons  Grape seed oil
  • 2 tablespoons Jojoba oil
  • 5 drops Essential oil ( your choice) a little goes a long way.

Your amounts can vary depending on how firm you like it. For more stiffness add more solid butter, (i.e the Shea or a Coconut) vs. the liquid oil makes it more buttery or smooth.

DIY – Homemade Deodorant

September 14, 2016 by admin Leave a Comment

Embrace Change with homemade deodorant.

Try this healthy alternative to store brands. A homemade deodorant can be made with only 4 basic ingredients but I researched different recipes on Pinterest to come up with this blend.  I was surprised, just how easy it was to make and how effective it was when using.  

Try DIY Deodorant --- you will never use store brought again. Click To Tweet

A word of caution if you are normally use to an anti-perspirant DIY deodorant will allow you to sweat.  I didn’t experience any odor but the wetness caught me off guard.  I did enjoy using different essential oils for a fresh scent, lavender and jasmine was my favorite.  

Check out my Transformation Tips for others health alternatives.

No-Bake Energy Bites

July 28, 2016 by admin

I love these “No-Bake Energy Bites.

Some mornings I do not have time to cook breakfast, so these energy bites are a great grab and go treat.  They are packed with fiber, protein and fruit.  A couple bites will easily take away the morning hunger pains.  I often change up the recipe by using different nut butters or raisins instead of dried cherries. They can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. The recipe makes 25 to 30 balls depending to the size of the balls.

 

No-Bake Energy Bites
