We had a couple rough days last week but we survived. Little Miss is smiling more and more and quickly making us forget how difficult she was for the first 5 months. We celebrated Mother's Day with a trip to get some tacos, Squish went to Grandma and Grandpa's and painted me a flower pot – he even picked out the flowers and potted them himself! And Hubby took the kids out for a couple hours so I could nap in a quiet house. Best present ever.

My fellow RD Ashley over at The Fresh Beet recently launched an e-course with a bit of a unique twist. It's geared towards plant-based eaters or those looking to become more plant-based but instead of focusing on how to follow a plant-based diet, it works to show you what important vitamins and minerals your diet may be missing and how to get them!

More info:

Many plant-based diets  lack several vitamins and minerals, which are essential components to health and wellness. There is so much talk about "Macros" — but what about "Micros?" Micronutrients are equally important and leaving them out of the equation won't help you achieve and sustain your health goals.

In this course, you will learn the tools and skills you need to:

  1. Analyze your current diet
  2. Determine which nutrients your diet is missing
  3. Create a plan to include those nutrients in your diet

If you're interested, you can register for the course for free using this link. (Note – that's not an affiliate link. I'm just sharing because I think it's a great course and covers some important topics!)

 

That's it for today!
Enjoy!
