These days, there seems to be hundreds of diet fad and “tricks” out there. If you are looking for a real and healthy way of life, Trim Healthy Mama (THM) is a great resource. As a Moms Meet Ambassador, I was able to read these books myself and see what they had to offer. What exactly is THM you ask?
Authors Serene Allison and Pearl Barrett provide a comprehensive, Biblically-sound, effective and delicious way to eat for health and weight loss. Written with humor and thorough research, these books will entertain, enlighten and encourage women (and men!) to feed their bodies and souls the way God created us to thrive. Separating scientific realities from the fads, this book addresses the diverse needs of adults and growing children. You’ll never look at food and health the same way again.
Sounds interesting, right? Not only do these magnificent mamas guide you through developing healthy eating habits, but they teach you the why’s and how’s. I love the way the book is written. It is very relatable and practical advice, no diet pills or crazy fads. Now granted, there is a learning curve to Trim Healthy Mama. It can seem a bit overwhelming at first, but I encourage you to keep reading! It is not designed like most conventional diets as a 30 or 90 day plan. You are not instructed exactly what to eat at every meal with portion sizes dictated to you. The plan encourages you to learn to put meals together yourself that will suit your own needs and food preferences. That being said, this can be catered to your lifestyle. If you have allergies, it can be adapted to fit you and your family. Trim Healthy Mama is geared as a lifelong plan, you learn as you go, but after a while it becomes like second nature for most people. The goal is to create healthy, life long eating habits!
Once you have read the book and are familiar with the suggested ingredients/replacements and the THM lingo, the cookbook becomes your new BFF. Say goodbye to stressful meal planning, you now have a book with tons of tasty, family approved recipes, that go along with your new lifestyle. These recipes are designed for THM, so you can plan your meals at ease, knowing they are THM approved. This companion cookbook is just what readers have been waiting for. It features simple, delicious recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner—including slow cooker and one-pot meals, hearty soups and salads, omelets and waffles, pizzas, breads, and many indulgent sweet treats. How great is that! I’m sure your family will find ones to become your new favorites! The THM cookbook also includes pantry-stocking advice, time-saving tips and info on how to cook for the entire family!
I really enjoyed these two books. They go hand in hand. I loved being inspired to eat better and it is great to have the cookbook at my fingertips! To learn more about Trim Healthy Mama, and to purchase the books, click here.
