For me, it would be a bottle of Bob's Big Boy Rochefort , fresh tomatoes and cucumbers, maybe add some grilled chicken. I could then start up my own website called, hummm...

The two adults in my household eat big salads almost every day and even we would not be able to get through all those bags before the leaves on the bottom turned to brown slime. I'm sure her magic fish oil pills will cancel out the Ranch. Yeah, I'm single and I eat what I consider to be a lot of veggies - a Costco-size bag of Eat Smart Sweet Kale Salad mix, a bag of broccoli slaw, and a 24 oz package of whole white mushrooms is about 6 days' worth for me... 5 Link to comment

DakotaJustice July 19, 2019 Share July 19, 2019 Well, doesn't that look...plain. I love yams, but all I do is snap off the pointed ends, nuke 'em for a few minutes (usually 5 or so depending on the size), let cool a little then eat them - skin and all.

Galloway Cave July 19, 2019 Share July 19, 2019 Just what exactly does Janelle think life is all about? It's like anything above and beyond sitting in a ratty recliner cruising the Interwebz is an effort. All posts are about how she hates living, it is hard to do anything. She is just now finding out about X, Y and Z. She complains about what every other person on earth does, every day, as part of being a human being. And if this is living a good life for her, I wonder what kind of pill she was back before the show. 1 13 Link to comment

Yeah, she had to live with the Wicked Bitch of the West, but she had a desk job with free coffee and snacks, someone to palm her kids off on 5 days a week, and got to be The Dependable Money Maker and Supreme Benefactor since she was the one who bought the Lehi house, which was a way of Getting Back at Meri. 7 Link to comment

AZChristian July 20, 2019 Share July 20, 2019 Janelle needs to try some spices. We went to Red Lobster the other day because it's Crabfest. I LOVE CRABS (to eat). We each ordered the luncheon size Crab Fettuccini. It was so awful (no taste of crab) that I told hubby I was just going to take mine home and he could reheat it and have it the next day. He didn't mind it as much as I did. The next day, I threw it in a casserole dish with a can of cream of mushroom soup, shredded cheese, some chopped cherry tomatoes and freshly ground pepper with a dash of sea salt. It was 100% better. We still had leftovers, so today we added some of my favorite spice - 6 pepper blend. If it had tasted that good on Thursday, we'd have eaten it all at the restaurant. But at least we got to enjoy some of those yummy biscuits. 2 2 Link to comment

That soup looks so unappetizing; if that's what passes for a meal, no wonder she seems depressed and tired. A better alternative would be to wrap the potato in foil and bake it in the oven. Then eat it with a little butter and cinnamon. Bon appetit!!! 5 Link to comment
Kohola3 July 20, 2019 Share July 20, 2019 I have made sweet potato soup from an America's Test Kitchen recipe and I love it. But I also have a side with some protein since this soup doesn't add much in that department. She only showed the Spam potato slices so it's hard to tell what else was in there. Surely she didn't just boil the potatoes and serve it, did she? Oh, wait, it's Janelle. 3 3 Link to comment

Roslyn July 21, 2019 Share July 21, 2019 Quote ""In an email, Michael Blaha, a cardiologist at Johns Hopkins University who has written about methodological issues with nutritional science, told me he finds “particularly distasteful studies of one particular food (e.g., broccoli) or one particular macronutrient,” because “it is impossible to disentangle the effect of one particular food or one macronutrient from the accompanying foods and macronutrients that characterize a typical dietary pattern.”" https://undark.org/2019/07/18/science-of-eggs/?utm_source=pocket-newtab I never take one article written as absolute. But I do agree that human nutrition is a science in its infancy. My Grandmother, a humble church secretary and bookkeeper preached some of the things these modern scientists state today, way back in the 70's. With her Prevention magazine in her hand she told me long ago that good nutrition was as simple as eat a varied diet, eat colorful foods in their natural season and always in moderation. I certainly think that Janelle could use a dose of reality from this article...it's NOT about rock stars and stuffing yourself with the "big new thing", it's about everyday natural simplicity and all things in moderation, even Kale, chia seeds, avocados and whatever she has googled today... 12 Link to comment
DakotaJustice July 21, 2019 Share July 21, 2019 She's still looking for that miracle pill or wherever. I still remember Oprah talking about that during her Making the Connection era (still have so much respect for her, just for running a marathon and inspiring others) where she said something to the effect that she had so much money and if such a pill existed, "I would have it. I would have it." I think at the end of the day Janelle is still looking for That Miracle. 15 Link to comment

Anthropology also has a lot to say about this--the healthiest groups throughout our existence ate a varied diet consisting mostly of plant foods and hunted/fished protein. When humans were gathering and hunting, as long as resources were good and reliable, humans were at their healthiest nutritionally. Once humans began to settle down into more permanent locations, their diets began to suffer and became based more on "staples" such as bread and corn. They developed premature tooth problems, weight problems and health issues we still face and are fighting today. So we've known this stuff for a long time just by studying the bones of our human ancestors. Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants. That's it. 2 7 Link to comment

Well, it seems for her it is a always a choice between "big new thing" or a "drive thru fast food run." It's all or nothing for her (just like Ado Annie in "Oklahoma"). You would think she could at least take a middle approach and stop at the grocery for a rotisserie chicken and a salad or some such combination. The idea that she is smarter than your average Brown has long been disproved. 3 10 Link to comment

ginger90 July 27, 2019 Share July 27, 2019 From Strive with Janelle Facebook: Hi guys. You know its been almost a week since my last post. Sometimes I struggle to feel like I have anything cool or inspiring to share with you. The days are busy and some times I am just barely managing to hold on to my own wellness routine. This week brought a different kind of teaching experience. Some of you may have heard about this terrible wild fire burning the mountains close to my new home in Flagstaff. Thankfully, I personally was spared any tragedy and so far so good, as the residents have not lost any homes in the area. However, we did have a scare with the area where Meri's rental home is. As we all rallied to help her move out pictures and priceless antiques in preparation for a full evacuation it hit me. How very little of the stuff in our homes is stuff we would save in case of fire. This insight into something I think I knew intellectually but hadn't really processed on a personal level was very teaching to me. This realization translated in another way for me. I know I seem calm, cool and collected on the outside but inside my head there is so much internal noise. I am sure many, if not most of you, can relate. The doubts, fears and anxiety that plague our modern life. But this week it was brought home to me that that "noise" is really just that, "noise" and I can make my perspective bigger. Or at least continue to practice making it bigger. Perfection definitely not achieved over here 🙂 Many of the addiction recovery groups (NA, AA, OA) teach that turning over things you can't control to a higher power is necessary in order to introduce peace and combat addictive behaviors. This higher power is defined as the individual desires. It is not a religious teaching but more of a spiritual practice I think. Maybe the point of this long post is to just share that there is always a bigger perspective. And once in a while we may be able to rest our respective burdens by looking for that. Link to comment

So lets see its been a year since the move to Flag, no posts from anyone about breaking ground on Plagueville Place ? I guess they will all be (sans Christine) renewing their leases at what 9K a month or so for 3 ginormous rentals. I am still trying to understand why Meri needed such a massive house. She always seems to be on some road trip or lulurot event away from home. Oh and Janelle Kody may be an antique but he aint priceless, cashless yes 10 Link to comment

She's scared of trees, and is busy changing Areola's blowout diapers. Kootie is napping on the sofa, and since he said he wouldn't cross a burning bridge for Meri, he's not going to lift a finger trying to save anything Meri.
