TRIM HEALTHY MAMA, EVERYWHERE!!

You have seen it for yourself. Facebook and Pinterest are absolutely littered with THM “this and that”; blogs are popping up everywhere using the familiar, “S”, “E” and “FP” listings for snacks, meals, desserts and drinks... There are a ga-zillion-and-one online recipes, tips and even costly, unofficial “study guides” claiming Trim Healthy Mama status.

It would seem the sky has literally opened up and is raining new recipes and resources down upon us! (Or... has it?)

Sadly, many well-meaning folks do not understand the food categories clearly enough to adapt their recipes to meet THM guidelines for “S”, “E” and “FP". Unless you are already very familiar with the plan, it can be difficult to differentiate which recipes actually meet THM guidelines and which will sabotage your efforts.

FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLES
It is so very important to learn the foundational principles of Trim Healthy Mama – and no amount of Internet surfing, Facebook browsing or recipe-collecting can possibly replace the absolute GOLD found in the book pages. For those who are busy, I know this will not be a popular recommendation, but taking the time to read the book, in its entirety, is important to your future success.

This means NO skipping chapters, NO “skimming” pages... Really delve into each section... and don't be afraid to highlight or underline new information - even whole sections - for quick reference later! Trust me, you will be SO glad you followed this advice!

BOOK RECIPES
The are over 200 PAGES of recipes. Can you imagine? I have been solely following THM for over 20 months and haven't even come close to trying them all! Many are quick recipes, taking less than 5 - 10 minutes to prepare...

The book recipes are also amazingly easy to utilize - especially when one is first starting out - because you can learn the food categories, just by following the recipes as written!

If you are having an “S” day, just go through and pick “S” breakfast, snack, lunch, snack and dinner recipes! Easy! Same goes for “E” days... Pick out the recipes, and you are ready to go! (I lost my first 45 pounds, just using the recipes from the book!)

BEYOND THE BOOK
There really are “safe” places to continue your recipe collections! The following bloggers have taken their time to learn Trim Healthy Mama and have “raised the bar” when it comes to crafting new, THM-friendly recipes!

Get to know them!
Save them to your favorites!
Share them with your friends!

You will be very glad you did!

As a quick footnote... I wanted to make it clear that just because a new blogger is not on THIS particular list does NOT mean their recipes do not fit THM guidelines. It simply means that they have not been around long enough for me to, personally, get to know them well enough for a recommendation.

The bloggers listed here have shown themselves to be knowledgeable and very serious about providing you with accurate THM-friendly recipes. Hope you enjoy!

Please, please, please try to persuade Pearl and Serene to record their book, maybe minus the recipes (which could be offered in a pdf along with the audio book) and offer it on Audible (the Amazon site for audio versions of popular books). I feel certain that many more people would take advantage of getting on board with the plan if they could get the information in the audio format. Even many of us who already own the book would greatly appreciate being able to refresh our memory about what we've read and listen to it while we do other things to understand the concepts better...enough that we would purchase the audio version in addition to the book. I believe you could experience a "windfall" with and audio version. Please!ll
