You Said, “Just Make It Easy, Jackie!”

Published July 17, 2021 by Jackie Olmstead Good day to you, Dear One! OK!!!! I totally hear you on this! So if I were to do a call with you and you needed a major jumpstart, hookup, get you going NOW with gluten free plant based living… This is what it looks like. I even did a video about this topic recently and I go through these steps with some references to other coaches’ lists.

You’re gonna need to write these down as you work through (click on that for video that is less than 7 minutes) this.

HERE you go: 

  1. What foods have you ever said this about: “I would eat this every day if I could!” (write them down like, “I LOVE stir fries”)
  2. What types of meals have you eaten regularly (see video for idea prompters, like, sandwiches for lunch, oatmeal at breakfast or scrambles…)
  3. Take a piece of paper and loosely draw out 7 columns (days).
  4. And separate out each day with however many meals you eat (3, 5, 7?)
  5. This is your weekly template. It doesn’t have to be gorgeous or anything (especially if you are a control freak like me) but just getting it down on paper is golden.
  6. On another piece of paper write down 3 options per meal that you might give yourself. (like breakfast I’ll do a scramble, oatmeal, yoghurt + fruit, my faves) Take from the idea prompt list.
  7. LASTLY, draft out a week of ideas per meal that you would like to prep for (either ahead of time or on that same day).
  8. Important variable that you might need help with. I recently was chatting with a member of my private Facebook group (see link below to join) and she mentioned that she has many types of foods that she cannot eat. So, if you are in this situation, I still recommend this method of jumpstarting your regime or getting new ideas for what you are going to plan to eat. The change would be to write down what foods you are actually able to eat so that you have it in front of you while you plan. I think that the challenge is finding what other foods you can replace in recipes that call for your restricted foods. There are lots of ways of modifying recipes so that you can still enjoy what the recipe is but replacing the ingredients with things you can eat. And it’s going to be a recipe-by-recipe experience. My best advice (after working through my tips in this blog post) is to post your recipe that you would like to make and are having troubles with recreating so that one of the people in the group can help you find alternative ingredients or even a different recipe altogether.

NOTE: While this system absolutely works, you must put forth some effort and commitment to accomplish this. And by the way, this works for anything that you want to do. This is the beginning of being the Gluten Queen or Earth Momma Diva!!!

That’s it! Enjoy the video too if you can!

Hope you found that useful, of course this is just one step on my Ditch the Gluten roadmap. This lesson is step 1 part C, if you need a more in-depth training go to http://www.theGlutenQueen.com and I’ll see you next time. Bye for now!

    Origins of the Earth Momma

    Logically, you would think that Jackie Olmstead would have grown up with little to no health issues since her father was a physician and her mother a nurse. But at six months old, she was diagnosed with asthma. Being hospitalized several times while enduring breathing treatments, steroids, antibiotics, inhalers and oral asthma medicines was challenging and a lonely and scary way to grow up. All the treatments, medicines and emergency room visits continued into her forties but at least she didn’t have to be admitted to the hospital anymore since in-home nebulizers became available. Viruses, flu bugs and sometimes exercise would trigger an asthma episode that would last for one to two weeks. It was expected usually a couple times a year. Other diagnoses: IBS and depression in 1983, hashimotos and hypoglycemia in 2007, depression and anemia in 2015. With the diagnosis of celiac disease in 2015, she was forced to relearn overnight how to shop, cook and eat without gluten. Determined to never be sick again, she researched for months the safest way for her to eat: Whole foods, plant based and of course, gluten free. Miraculously, today she doesn’t own any inhalers, and has only once had to take steroids with her nebulizer since 2015 because of a bad cold in 2020.

    Italy Slice of Life and Meditation

    Some of the best meditative, self-reflective and breathtaking moments I have spent on this Earth was when I studied abroad in Italy back in 1989 and 1989 for a total of a year. 

    In the summer of 1988 I studied Italian (intensive) at the School for Foreigners in Perugia. The school paired the students with others around the world. My roommate was from Germany. She was tall and blonde and I remember respecting her a lot. I don’t remember a whole lot of details as to why except that she was intelligent, was kind, her English impeccable and we shared a commiseration about our “house mother.”

  • It’s Time to Remember What Makes You Tick!

    now that you actually know this, but having gotten so used to the way things changed, you doing “you” since has changed so much and I’m betting that you really forgot. It’s not gone, just forgotten. I’m saying this because I have forgotten, moved forward with the way things have transitioned into what my world looks like right now. I hope I can help you to find your fun today.
