Spatchcocked chicken is very yummy, especially with the special butter you put in and in it. So sweet, when Freya heard you tell Fiona she was eating a popsicle, she gave a huge smile at her face in the camera. Such a beautiful evening, relaxing in the warm air, with your family.
Charlottes Web was one of my favorite books when I was a little girl. Lived in the country, no kids around an only child so read a lot. In third grade I discovered Little House on the Prairie! Tell her to keep it up.
Marci, as we get older it becomes harder to lose weight. It's important to eat healthy and a daily walk can make a difference. Good luck! Thank you for your videos.
It's great that your kids love to read. I still love to read! Jessie is so sweet. And Freya really enjoys scooting around looking for a book! Thanks for sharing! ❤
Even Stephanie said the stuff that Sebastian's doing I noticed it's amazing in like the last year with both of you a ladies with your children how much growth babe done I mean it's amazing your children are actually very smart I think they can even understand everything you're saying whether they can communicate but yeah they're smart❤
Marci that is so awesome your Jessie is reading Charlotte’s Web! See if she is comprehending what she’s reading by asking questions about the pages she has read! Freya moves faster than lightening by scorching out of the library…so cute😍
I'm so happy to see kids fascinated by books. I would hate to see libraries go the way of the dinosaurs. Charlottes Web was one of my favorites too and I think she'd also enjoy the Little House series by Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Chicken looks so good. This is Saturday afternoon, and it's starting to cloud up and cooling off. Guess we got rain coming. I feed the wild birds and the hummingbirds. Love watching them and hearing them. Freya enjoyed the library, and I proud of your children for the love of reading. I have books but don't pick them up anymore. Sad.... You enjoy your weekend ❤❤❤❤
My favorite book as a kid, good pick Jesse! I just wanna make a T-shirt for Freya: one of a kind booty scoochin, ponytail bobbin beauty! 😂 Weight has always been my enemy, being born at 9.5 pounds, I don’t think God intended me to be petite. But I do have my comfort weight and it’s still higher than the recommended amount 💁🏻♀️ You’re beautiful Marcy, as long as you’re comfortable in your skin it doesn’t matter the number on the scale. ❤
Hi there, such a lovely, relaxing way to enjoy dinner on a summer night. It’s wonderful that your children love to read, shows good parenting. I read to ours from almost day one. When they were older, say grade school and Jr. high, I’d pick a gold metal rated book and read to them all (5) after dinner…..even my husband loved it, it became a real family affair that we loved. Just a thought here……I’m thinking you should sew some leather patches onto all Freya’s bottoms, she must wear them out so quickly and forget getting them to look clean! We had a bottom Scooter too until she was almost 3……being the baby, she didn’t have to learn to walk, somebody was always holding or toting her!😄 love and hugs to all..tummy rub for Susie🐶👍👍🩷
YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!! I have lost 35 pounds but I never fasted. I eat less and I walk more and take care of my mind and I stopped eating cheese and less soda.
Freya is doing so well with the spoon! I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes last year and I had to eat quite a bit less carbs and take some medication. I have lost about 30 pounds and my fasting glucose is now in the normal range. The hardest thing is to eat less but not feel hungry. You will find what works for you. It just takes some time for the pounds to come off.
Scoochen on her butt must wear out her clothes quickly. Also, I was watching how she scooches is why she is going to do well with her wheel chair. She scooches with the same movements. One smart little bugger.
Ruth here, l discovered this years ago, no breakfast, many do put heavy cream in there coffee just no carbs, 👍 for thinking. I can now lose weight, got rid of brain fog, this is the best l've ever felt, l am 64, but l have to go further and cut out almost all carbs, sugar, fake sugar, no rice, beans either, l love Cincinnati chili but no beans, l make it with high fat ground beef, just a little tomatoes and tomato paste, no sugar, l add spices so far that works, oh, l add butter when l warm it to eat. Good medical doctors to listen to is, Ken D Berry, also Antony Chaffee, who is a heart dr
Good job using the spoon! Charlotte's Web is usually given to them to read in the 3rd grade. Jesse's doing excellent reading that. I do the fasting, but I break the coffee rule. I need a little creamer in my coffee, and I NEED coffee. With the weight loss, the stress alone can make your body not burn calories well. Too much cortisol pumping all the time. For me, cutting sugar and processed carbs was the game changer.
I do IF - usually 8.30pm to 8.30am, sometimes longer. I enjoy it, and I think the weight is coming off SLOWLY, although I don't weigh myself - I just go by how my clothes feel. That chicken tip was worth writing down! I'll definitely try it. 😊
It is extremely hard to lose weight after 50! Good that you’re doing it now especially if your back pain is due to a lumbar stenosis. Very slowly it gets worse and keeps you from being as active as you were. Very common condition.
Heck yes!! Once u spatchcock a bird u never go back. U can also pour hot, hot water over the skin to shrink it and it makes it crisp better. And!!! If u have a smoker then put it on the treager and oh my gosh!!
I LOVE watching her eat with a spoon by herself! It's awesome that your kiddos like to read. Most are not like that. My great nephew will be 10 next month Marci or any Moms here have any suggestions? I've bought books over the years for nieces/nephews..to have them fail. I have always loved to read. That smile always makes my day! It's so cool that the other kids are supportive and just in general with Freya. I'm going to have to try making chicken like you do...what size bird was that? Do you set the oven at 350? What size bird? My Dr told me that I am borderline diabetic so I need to get more sugar free options. I'll be 65 in December and am really concerned about my health. I did get news that my cholesterol levels have gotten better than they ever were! Ok, I've said way too much! Love to you all!❤❤❤❤
Also I hated reading until I was 11 or 12 and I read the outsiders. It was the first book I liked. My advice is they need to read stories they like. My kids have loved graphic novels. Less reading more pictures. They are like comic books
Hi Marci, good luck with your plan. I find it hard to stick with any of these plans long term. I tried this one but only for a week to be honest. Felt like eating in the mornings again. Hope it works well for you. You're at home a lot as well so it's hard not to enjoy food. xx
Have you tried Geronimo Stilton? It is a great. It is about a mouse on different adventures. For some of the older kids maybe her sister but her brother might be told for this series.
Intermittent fasting worked for me along with you definitively need to cut carbs. I lost about 20 # in about 5 months and was still losing weight but I don’t need to get too skinny so I increased some carbs and ate little potato’s and sweets . Now I can control my 20 # reduction by doing that. I think if I want to lose more weight I can simply cut the carbs more. But yes, always intermittent fasting does a lot of good.
I love seeing Fraya scoot. My youngest did that she didn't crawl until she started walking. She didn't talk except mama Dada until she was almost 3. The drs found something in my 6 month blood work with her and wanted to do the needle in my belly, but I said if God thinks I can handle a special baby then I can and I don't want to risk miscarriage. All my babies are 36 seekers except her I was given a repeat csection at 38 weeks. My other babies came out screaming, no issues, she came out blue no crying. She has ashama exams, extreme allergies. But she graduated with honor, was a cheerleader played flute in marching band. Just great....they never told me what they found in the blood work. My dr was a woman and since then I have heard horror stories of her slapping young girls when the would scream in labor, tell them they should have kept there legs closed, she even had one to die from her treatment or non treatment. She no longer works. I'm just thankful that I didn't let her give me the amniocentesis.
It's mainly high carbs are so terrible and I'm from Michigan and I love potatoes I love noodles I love bread and biscuits I treat myself now you never have to take it away but I think you can do it Mercy yeah and listen you look actually really good yeah you do
I gained weight because the use of anti depressants. Can t stop. Because of what i have. But i find it hard that i won't lose weight.I have also been to a dietician. I work hard for it but nothing works. My doctor knows. They say i need try to be happy. And i think about it too much. That is true sadly i am thinking a lot that i am ugly (low self I have low self-confidence) i am depressed and that works against me losing weight. So it go's full cirkle. I do find you look very beautiful Marci. Your family also. I hope you guys have a great weekend.
I lost you and the kids for awhile; don’t know how that happened.🤷♀️ Is Freya in speech therapy now? I know you are proud of all your kiddos! They are each special in their own way-precious ❣️
You have to eat your breakfast, it’s. The first meal off the days it’s the more important. Skip the collation, eat less at the souper and diner. Love your family’s ❤❤❤
Oh my god wow isn't that amazing she's dipping her spoon and feeding herself I've been watching you for about a year she never did that isn't that something
Hi my Friends, another weekend is here. I can’t believe the School year is almost here. I think it went so quickly. It’s gloomy in NJ this weekend. I’m catching up on wash. Joy🥹 The chicken looks like it’s going to taste super yummy. Enjo the rest of your weekend. Love you all, me ❤️😉🙋🏼💋
