Добавлен 14 май 2012
I am a 42 year old woman who struggles to lose weight and am fascinated by other people's lives on RUclips, so I decided to create this channel! I am a celiac, a swiftie, lover of cats and the Ravens. Keep me accountable in 2024 to ACTUALLY lose the weight!
Celiac girl Whole Foods Market grocery haul with lots of new gluten free finds! | Includes WW Points
I rarely shop at Whole Foods Market because it gets a bad wrap for being "Whole Paycheck" but honestly, if you shop sales you can find some deals. (Just not Aldi style deals) And they do have a really good selection of new gluten free finds. What are your favorite grocery stores to shop at? As always, thank you for watching! xoxo Amy

Celiac girl 23 point perfect WW Day!
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.Месяц назад
Ahhh, I love when I go into a day with no plans and it works out perfectly! Though, I do typically aim for 30-33 points a day, I ended up going overboard the day before so I did need to keep this a low point day. Glad it turned out that way! And better yet, I was not starving! What does a "perfect" ww day look like for you? As always, thank you for watching! xoxo Amy

When I tell you I did not feel like cooking this day, I really did not feel like cooking. lol. BUT I am sooooo glad that I did as I am now set up for success for the week and have some pretty healthy good meals. I don't think I really spoke about the points but depending on how much I eat none of these meals should be over 7-8 points ( The chick sausage is 5 points a link). So I am happy about ...

It feels good to be back on track...but also I needed that time away for a bit... I think everyone needs a good reset. The good news is I didn't get too far off track so I think it makes it easier to get back on... Now, if only WW would allow us to go back in time to reinstate our streaks it would make me a happy camper :) Thanks for watching! xoxo Amy

Bouncing back after a 55 point day | What I eat in a day on 23 point budget | Getting more fiber
Просмотров 2662 месяца назад
It happens to the best of us, getting off the wagon....the difference is how you bounce back! You really can't sweat it, you just have to pick up the next day and get back on track. Because the reality is you did not eat enough to make you gain weight, the weight comes when you keep on that same track for days at a time. So, take your day eat what you want and get right back on track. I know it...

What does a 40 something female wear these days? | Gap Outlet Try on Haul | Be Kind, Please :)
Hang in there. I know it’s really trying to care for aging parents. My dad has stomach cancer and my mom has Alzheimer’s. My dad was going through really aggressive chemo, he also did not eat well. He liked lemon flavored things and mashed potatoes. We tried to find a food he would eat no matter if it was healthy. Ice cream and shakes were also a go to. Social workers can help with resources. We also set both my parents up with palliative care. The doctor can come to the house and they can help make him more comfortable. I’m in your same boat. It’s exhausting mentally and physically. I hope you know you are doing a great job and they are very lucky to have a daughter like you. Stay strong!
My back was hurting so my dr did a blood test. Came back high enzymes in my liver. Dr did a liver blood test and came back positive for celiac. Going for my endoscopy end of the month. Looking back, i was tired, light stools, vomiting 2-3 days a week, etc. Started eating gf and felt better but like you mentioned, dr wanted me to continue gluten until the endoscopy. Just fyi about mcdonald's, at least here, the fries only go in a dedicated fryer just for fries so i eat those. Also, the taco bell thing is strange because i buy the taco bell hard shells and they say gf on the box. Im pretty much gf but i still eat some gluten everyday until the test. Thank you for the info.
Another hidden gluten containing ingredient is soy sauce. Tamari or coconut aminos can be substituted instead.
Or you can just buy gf soy sauce
HOW CAN I FIND A REPUTABLE DOCTOR WHO CAN CONDUCT A THOUGH EXAMINATION? I LIVE TORRANCE, CALIFORNIA.
Your recipes sound and look delicious. I will try them! I found a super soft mission protein garlic herb tortia wrap that was zero points when I checked it with my points slider. I'm on the 123 success ww program. I love it. It's the old program from around 1998 to 2012, maybe? It's the best! Anyway I made myself the best wrap sandwich for lunch today. On the wrap I spread one laughing cow triangle for 1 Point, chopped up 2 small chicken strips that I steamed with lemon pepper 2 days ago for 3 points, 1/2 chopped home grown tomato, shredded Lettuce, and a tiny piece of pepper jack cheese chopped up for 1 point. It was so good and only 5 points! I was stuffed! I'm having it tomorrow too. 😂 I do envy all your free point foods on your newer ww program, though!
That recipe looked amazing, Thank you for sharing!
I have a celiac gene , stomach looks pregnant, stools are light , failed blood work 😢 Also beer really messes my gut What do you drink?
Whole Foods sale prices are every bit as low as Walmart! 🎉 I am always shocked how cheap their GF sale prices are! GREAT haul, I always look forward to them❤
I was pleasantly surprised. Though my original plan was to stick to sale items only, I think I will keep it in the rotation if I do that. And thank you!!!😁
Cooked jasmine rice is 6 points for a cup, 3 for 1/2 cup! Thanks for the video!
Thank you!!
Lovn your vlogs !very helpful xthanks love from the uk !!!!!!
Oh wow the UK, awesome! Thank you so much for watching!
I agree on our food. It is crazy how different garden fresh produce tastes compared to store-bought.
Yas!! A big healthy garden is A LOT of work though. lol
Amy, great news from your family doctor! Congrats! I have a question regarding your walking pad. Do you like it? If so, what kind is it and where did you get it? I have been thinking about getting one to use while I'm talking online or watching TV but after looking at them on Amazon and reading all the reviews, it didn't seem like any of them were getting great reviews so I gave up. Like the other person who commented, I am also in my late 60's and the reason I'm watching you is because you are talking about your weight loss journey and WW and there aren't too many RUclipsrs in their late 60s who create content on WW. A YT creator that I think you would like who I also watch is "Life over 55 with Kim". Why don't you check her out. That's awesome news about your dad! Yay!!
Hi! I do like it. I got it on Amazon last July and paid like $150 for it. You get what you pay for with them. I would not spend more than $200 on a walking pad, but for $150 I think it is worth the money. I am glad you are here, thank you so much for watching! And I just I just subscribed to Kim, thank you for sharing :)
@@lifewithamy2024 , could you tell me which one you bought?
I think the 2024 model is "deer run" walking pad on Amazon. DeerRun 2024 Upgrade Walking Pad, Smart Under Desk Treadmill for Home, No-Assembly Treadmills, APP/Remote Control, LED Display, Walking Jogging Machine, 300 lbs Capacity a.co/d/9cVr535
@@lifewithamy2024, thank you. I'll look for that one.
Thanks. It's funny, but that is the one that I've actually been leaning towards buying.
I’m in my late 60s . I started watching you because I like WW’s . I never went through menopause because I had chemo in my late 40’s and that stopped me from having my period. Glad your dad is doing better.
Ohhh I appreciate you watching! And oh wow, I am sorry you had to go through chemo, it truly is awful. I hope you have recovered and are well now. I appreciate the kind words for my father. 🙏
The clean plate after breakfast is so real 🤣🤣
Hahahaa they definitely hit the spot!
Im also gluten free so lovn your vlogs hun !😊
Awww thank you!!🫶
Your videos are helpful. I eat gluten free and just started WW.
Awesome, thank you! I really didn't find many GF and WW channels on here which is why I created my channel (but also for accountability to myself :) ) Thanks for being here!
Just found your vlog 😊xgreat ideas i have allergies too hun x
Thank you! Allergies are tough that is for darn sure!
Great video! Your hair is looking cute. :) How are your mom & dad?
Thank you!! I just got it cut :) Dad is actually doing a lot better. They lowered his chemo treatment and he seems to be handling it well. Thank you so much for asking, Mickie!
Great videos as always! My streak right now is about 211 days and I do obsess over losing it and what that may do to my progress. It would be nice to have that feature a little more flexible 😊
Awww thank you! And congrats on 211 that is amazing!
I am gonna do the pork tomorrow! Thanks Amy!
Ahh I always feel pressure when one of y'all say you are going to make something but in this case I feel good! It is easy and delish! Enjoy! 😁
Oh Amy, I'm so sorry and feel terrible for you. What a rough, heartbreaking time you're going through with both your parents. And I'm sorry that you lost your beautiful tracking streak. The pasta you made and the English muffins pizzas are my kind of food! Thanks for the ideas! They will be my meals for later today. You're lucky to be able to have a garden. I finally gave up after 3 years of the squirrels taking bites out of all my vegetables, no matter how I tried to keep them out of the garden. I'm enjoying watching your videos. I found you tonight and just watched 3 of your videos and yes, I subscribed 😀
Ohhh thank you for being here! And those darn squirrels can be pests sometimes!
I feel for you dealing with sick parents. I am in the same boat. My Mom just had open heart surgery and my Dad has cancer. Hang in there. You are a great daughter. :)
Oh, Danielle I am so sorry to hear this. I will give you the best advice that has been given to me and that is to make sure to take care of yourself as you cannot take care of your sick parents without taking care of yourself. Sending heartfelt prayers for your parents' recovery.
@@lifewithamy2024 great advice. Thanks so much. 🙏🏻
Anytime
Thanks for the tips. As a Celiac I find it so hard to find nutritious snacks for when I'm on the go. I never knew that chomps existed. I used to eat epic bars all of the time but they made me break out. So clearly they were inflaming my body. I'm going to try chomp and see how it goes.
Ohhh I have never had those, but noted to stay away! Lol And yes, try chomps, they are pretty good and clean!
Hi! New to your channel but just wanted to say if you type the nutrition for the skinny dipped peanut butter cups into the app they are actually only 2 points instead of the 4 that they scan 🥰
Oh heck yeah!! Thank you for that tip!! And welcome!🫶
Everything brazzi is amazing🤤🤤
I have been non stop eating the cheesy bread. Lol
I love using large vegetables like that from the garden. My favorite thing to use giant zucchinis for is my aunt’s zucchini soup. It is my favorite soup EVER. Also, I’m a case manager in an emergency room. Since your dad is already hooked up with home health, reach out to them and ask for social worker services. They can help guide you through different steps and resources available in your area. Wish you the best. It is a very difficult spot to be in. ❤
Ahh, thank you for the recipe idea! Unfortunately, this guy spoiled like real fast and I was unable to use it, but will look at that in the future! And THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!! We actually have a referral in for a social worker but am still waiting on the phone call :( I appreciate you!
@@lifewithamy2024 I know it can be hard, but if they haven’t reached out in 2-3 days, call to follow up. Sometimes you have to stay on top of it to make sure referrals don’t get missed. 🩵
Thank you!
Coconut oil is perfect for baking, lotion, and hair masks. We go through 2-3 a year. 😊
Ok lotion wise do you just lather on skin as is? I have always heard people using for hair mask but have never tried myself!
Add sugar to the food or extra pepper or salt . Did this with my Dad .
Ohhhhh this is a really great tip. Thank you so much!!
I was my Dads caregiver for his 3 final years . On and off for 5 years .
It's so hard. 🙏
So sorry about your parents . My Mom had dementia and my Dad had kidney disease . My Mom passed away in 2011 and my Dad in 2022.
I am sorry for your loss, but so glad you were there to help them as tough as it was. 🙏 Thank you for sharing
Wow, so sorry to hear about parents that’s a rough journey for sure. When my granny was sick with breast cancer she had zero appetite, sometimes we could get her to drink smoothies or protein shakes but even then it was a struggle. Your veggies look great! My garden has been a bust this year but I was hoping to get some carrots and cucumbers.
Thank you for the kind words and suggestions. We have found one shake that has been working but they both still need more 🙏 ohhh carrot's, are they easy to grow? I would love to try them!
I have tomatoes and peppers and some herbs in my garden.Basil, mint, sage. Caring for aging parents is hard. I lost my Dad in 2017. I care for my mom. She also doesn't eat well. I wish I knew how to get her to eat, too. It's hard.
I am sorry for your loss. And it is so hard! I am sure you have tried Kate Farms shakes? My dad's nutritionist sent and they are liking so far. But it's still not nearly enough
@lifewithamy2024 no I haven't tried them. Thank for the suggestion. So far we have just tried the ensure shakes. But I'll look into theses, thanks.
Hopefully they help!
Cold pasta salad is good to have on hand in the summer time. I do that often.
Ohhh great idea!
I made this for supper last night. Great way to eat a lot of veggies.
I will have to soon!!
I walk 1 morning and 2 early evenings with a friend. I like these videos

Your human . I didn’t think your video was bad at all .
aww thank you, I appreciate that!!
Hi Amy. I'm sorry about your Dad. I enjoyed your video. I have been at Lifetime for over 20 years. Sometimes maintaining is success. With the challenges you had this month you deserve a "Bravo!. I heard at least two goals you made for the month. 1. Get the key card. 2. Make your Drs. appointments. You are setting yourself up for a good month.
Wow, lifetime for over 20 years is amazing, congratulations! I do hope to get there one day. Thank you for the kind words 🙏
Love seeing the Kitty. So cute. Just recently found your channel.
Awww thank you. I like to use her as my intro each video. Lol
I’m down 2.6 pounds in the last 30 days! A total of 22 pounds since starting WW mid December!
That's amazing, Chrissy! Congratulations!
I lost 1.8 for June and am down 17.6 for the year. July is my most challenging month of the year (I usually call it the month where healthy eating plans go to die) due to every special occasion known to man, but I'm in a better mindset this year than I've ever been. I'm going to take care of the day I'm in, continue to "loose track" special occasion & vacation meals, and end the month not riding the slippery slope I usually experience. Thanks for sharing your story. I'm saying a prayer for your dad!
Mickie that is amazing, congratulations! Are you doing WW? I swear mindset is everything and it sounds like you are in the right place. Thank you for the prayers, it is much appreciated 🙏
@@lifewithamy2024 yes, I rejoined WW in January.
Awesome!
I also have celiac, but unfortunately I react to all cross-reactive grains😩 No rice, oats, quinoa, etc… it definitely makes eating tougher👎
Oh no! I don't know what I would do. Do you eat a lot of potatoes?? Have you found a pasta that you can eat? I feel for ya!
@@lifewithamy2024 cassava pasta has become my go-to now. Potatoes 😩😩 Unfortunately I cannot
No potatoes either? Oh man, I am sorry! And yes, ok Jovial brand has some good cassava flour pasta and siete has the cassava flour tortillas (I just don't know if they add any other flours)
I don’t like grapes one way or the other put them in a bag. I won’t eat them put them in a box. I won’t eat them put them in a clam shell box. I won’t eat them. Yes gluten free shopping is incredibly expensive.
So expensive! And that's a bummer on grapes!
I can’t believe your a ravens fan
Huge ravens fan!!
I’m so relieved to have found your RUclips channel! I also have celiac disease but I’m also Type 2 diabetic so it’s been very difficult to manage what I eat to keep my sugar down. As you know, just because foods are gluten free doesn’t mean they’re low in sugar and carbs. I did keto for 2 years and lost 50 lbs and reversed Type 2; but keto got too difficult to manage because it’s such a restrictive lifestyle. So gradually I started reintroducing carbs into my diet and I gained 20 lbs back. I’ve recently joined WW so it’s so helpful to me to see what you’re eating on WW being gluten free. Thank you for sharing this content!
Celiac disease is very hard, I can't imagine also having type 2 with it. We should hopefully be a great program for you to manage as it really is more of a lifestyle. Good luck and I am glad you are here!
Does the Kirkland coconut oil taste like coconut? Ive wanted to try it but I’m unsure on how strong flavor is
It does, but it's light and similar to those on the market in other stores. If you have not had coconut oil, I would maybe buy a smaller version from your local store before Costco massive version. I have coconut oil for a long time. Lol
Did you get your steps in?! Also, where do you get your glasses?
I did not! Lol. It was a shit show of a day. And I got them at Target of all places back in 2015 or so. I just keep changing my prescription out because I love them so much
I love your videos 😊 you’re so fun to watch! I feel the same way about smoothies.. no way I’m counting the fruit in them.
Thank you so much!! And glad you have my back on smoothies! Lol
Here out of empathy for your celiac…research carnivore diet…
Oh I will have to check that out, thank you!
@@lifewithamy2024 you’re welcome! High fat and protein is very healing to the body and the benefits are too great not to share! Best wishes to you!
🫶
I don’t have a Costo in my town. I tried WW 2 years ago lost about 12 lbs. I was on for 3 months. I then did keto and carnivore and lost all together 25 lbs. I still have to loose at least 25 more. I am interested in your journey.
Oh wow that is amazing about your weight loss journey! Congratulations! I am sorry about no Costco though, it is the best! Lol. Thanks for following along!
I live in NC also. Grew up here. That is great.
I love NC!!

Thank you!
