Happy New Year!!
I like so many other mama’s need to restart my Trim Healthy Mama journey.
I’d like to apologize for being so quiet the last couple months but family commitments interfered with my ability to post and share with you.
(and stay on plan …. can you relate?)
One thing I realized during my short break is that I missed writing here as well as being able to post helpful tips and tools for everyone. I fell off the wagon for a while and am working daily on getting back on track with my meal timing as well as making the right choices… watching my crossovers and just being on plan 100% of the time. I’ve gained back the original 55 pounds that I lost, because honestly
I wasn’t paying attention and the bad habits returned…
Only having coffee for breakfast
Not eating every 3 hours
Enjoying too many crossovers
Not drinking my sippers
Indulging in off plan foods
Not getting the proper amount of rest
Not exercising at all
Back on Plan for a New Year and a New ME!!
Some of the ways that I’m Restarting My Trim Healthy Mama Journey for the New Year are:
Using a Trim Healthy Binder
I made these Binder dividers to use.
These Journaling pages
Planning my Meals at least 2 weeks in advance with this Menu Planner
Using the ingredients we have on hand
The bonus to me restarting Trim Healthy Mama this way is that I get to share some cool printables as well as menu plans and show you how I’m doing it. Especially with recipes like this Sunrise Surprise.
I also belong to a THM Chapter by Chapter Study Group on Facebook and would encourage you to join in if you are confused or want to study the Trim Healthy Mama books (Old and New) Chapter by Chapter with some pretty awesome people.
You can find that group Here.
As always we appreciate any purchases you make through our Affiliate link.

Thank you for sharing your printables! This is my 2nd week on THM and they look like such a tool to help with the journey.
Judy says
I’m so glad you like them… I wanted some new pretties in my binder 😀
Chubbymom says
Regained every pound I lost, plus 20! I was skinnier than in my teens. I allowed too many cheats cause I didn’t have to worry about my weight anymore. Before I knew it, I was just totally off plan. I could cry! IDK how I’ll ever lose it again:(
Judy says
oh hun, Please Please know you are worth it and you CAN do this!! let’s hop back on the wagon again and get it rocking!! One meal at a time… every 3 hours <3
Julie says
Judy I have done the same thing..took me a year to lose 40 pounds…now it is all back ; (
Bev Thorpe says
These are so pretty
Judy says
Thank you
Michele says
I’m so encouraged by your honesty. I have regained 65 pounds from another journey and have yet to commit to THM for fear I’ll repeat the same pattern. It’s nice to know that others keep trying, too.
Judy says
I won’t give up… This is the only way I’ve been able to loose since going through menopause… and the only way I’ve been able to control my blood sugar with any regularity… it works and it is sustainable… We keep on keeping on
Anita says
Could you please tell me what the initials in the meal planner stand for? (S sh e fp xo)
Judy says
S=Satisfying… SH= S Helper E Energizing, FP= Fuel Pull and xo= Crossover
Kelly S. says
You mean I’m not the only one? So thankful to find this post. Lost 50 and have regained 30 and NOTHING fits, and I feel like such a failure. I have made a lot of the same mistakes. I want to do better and find a way – in the midst of feeding my picky, junk-loving family – to still take care of myself.
Judy says
Come as you are Mama… no guilt…. and nope you aren’t alone …Let’s do this 😉
Tammy says
I like your style!!! Your honesty & encouragement plus the bonus of printables to help others along the journey are HUGE!! Thank you!
Judy says
Thank you… I’m an honest person… and my heart sings when I help others so…. it’s just kind of hoe I roll… I’m glad they will help you 🙂
Michelle says
Thank you for the printables, I’m wanting to start a binder and was looking for something like this. May God bless your journey for being so kind providing us with them free.
Cherry says
I need to restart THM but just haven’t been able to wrap my head around it. Finding your printable so this morning has been such an encouragement. Thank you for sharing and encouraging !
Leslie says
Thank you Judy! I’m restarting again today (I’ve lost count how many times I’ve said this!) but your printables are so pretty and will help me to get organized!!! I just need to be better about planning and preparing. I’m such a Drive Thru Sue that it’s so hard – but I’ve done it before – I can do it again! Thanks again!
Brenda says

Susan says
I printed everything today. Beautiful. Do you think you could add a matching cover page to slip in the front of a binder?
Judy says
I can, I use the My Journey page as my cover 🙂
