Healthy Honey Oat Flour Raisin and Chocolate Chip Cookies #healthyeating #healthyliving #healthyfood #lorijeaninthekitchen

I just made two batches of wonderful tasting cookies that feel good for me and taste good - warm right out of the oven from Oatmeal with a Fork website. I trust her because she always uses the best dollar for what I'm looking for and gives me the best results where I'm limiting my sugar. I had no coconut sugar so I only used honey in one recipe calling for sugar, so this might be better for you anyway. I always blend my own oatmeal flour with the blender. It's easy and works well and costs so much less than having to buy it. Many food pantries give out oats or at the lower priced stores you can stock up cheaply. A great way to keep recipes gluten free and tasty.

I also blended an entire cup of oats leaving 1/4 c. whole oats for the raisin cookies. And I blended all the flour for the chocolate chip cookies. 

Just Three Minutes a Day of Yoga Can Save You! #yoga #lorijeaninthekitchen #holisticliving

I found this wonderful woman that saved me with just three minutes a day. Cutting out refined white sugar and gluten has saved me so far with my chronic illness and other physical limitations because of stress put on my body from abuse. I need more carb burning but desperately needed yoga as well. This short sequence saved me. I memorized the steps and do them just about every night.

 Experimenting with Sugar Free Gluten Free Recipes

After getting away from wheat and going back to it, it goes through my body now. Now I know I have a bad reaction to it, which isn't uncommon for Hashimotos disease, which is a nasty autoimmune disease that attacks my body. I'm just glad I found out. I'm also glad that I have more energy and don't feel like I'm dying now after cutting out refined sugar, white sugar all together for me right now as it stands.

I made a blueberry muffin recipe substituting with leftover maple syrup and a bit of honey for sugar-using 3/4 of the called for sugar measurement, and gluten free all purpose flour instead of regular all purpose flour. I also added in a few squeezes of lemon because I like the idea of lemon blueberry muffins, but most called for too many things I didn't want to use. I'm trying to learn how to substitute regular recipes for gluten free sugar free because all the ones I find when I google call for almond flour, coconut flour, or some other kind of Paleo flour. Now this isn't bad... it's just I don't always want to eat those flours. I grew up on hearty breads, yet I can't eat them anymore. I love the taste of sweetness yet refined sugar turns me off now, gladly to this. So when I use other natural sweeteners that I feel are better I enjoy the taste. But when substituting recipes it can be tricky. I'm trying to get bolder and bolder with this. I have found today you don't have to cut down on the milk when adding a liquid sweetener. It will make the batter too thick.

I used this recipe to substitute my blueberry muffins.

I also found another with an interesting cinnamon, flour, and sugar topping. I would like to try that with coconut sugar.

Stress levels in the body don't raise cholesterol within a week. I find it strange, maybe not so now, that I week before my scheduled doctor's appointment to announce to the world that I lowered my cholesterol over 200 points, 225 to be exact in a nine month period, by diet alone, and not by eating less fat, but cutting additives and preservatives, then eventually refined sugar and gluten, after I had stopped taken my cholesterol lowering medication Lipitor that my head and body started to feel scarily strange. It wouldn't be the first time my body had been exposed to unwanted advances at unfortunate times, after all after being medically counseled on being poisoned with a substance easy to hide in the home of a pesticide component in my food, why would one or others be surprised to a forced situation on my body before a doctor's appointment with such a scandalous bureaucratic society. My body somehow went out of control the week before my appointment and I had to reluctantly surrender to my Lipitor once again, frightfully feeling I should try everything at this point that I had, at this time too. My tests showed the conclusion much lower results, and I had only taken Lipitor for a week; It takes two week for Lipitor to kick into your system at all. The doctor, or PCP, said I didn't need it but could take a dose of 40mg anyway and that it wouldn't hurt me. ?! What's that?

I have now been able to cut it down in half and will continue to those who oppose exposure to substances that are financially beneficial to the few bad bureaucrats that this simple injured woman may have caused a threat to.
