Yes, I do So a lot of folks don't know this about your past and I appreciate you sharing it today on the show But I've yours and RJ has autism and this is a ailment that is a lifelong process for a lot of families Tell me about what happened in the very beginning the moment you noticed that something just wasn't right Well, I noticed when he was two that he stopped making eye contact with his twin sister, right? So he has a twin sister and they're you know on the same track milestone wise and he withdrew from her and he disconnected He stopped answering to his name. I just noticed that he was just disconnected and I went to Rodney I was like, you know, what's up with him? And Rodney was like, he's fine. He's a boy and you know, he's fine He's a boy That's what I was being told that yeah, you know boys They twins, you know the boys a little bit behind the girls The girls will develop a little bit faster and I was like, he'll be alright He'll grow out of this and he'll be okay, right? That's what I was let me just go through you mentioned a couple quickly But wasn't making eye contact right right didn't smile when he's being smiled at didn't connect Didn't and then it's really regressed in his language. I mean he just sort of went within my back weird We regressed so you took him to a physician Rodney But what the specialist tell you was going on and what did he tell you about the future? Well, it was it was the darkest day because it was a she and you expect her to have a little bit of a bedside Manner, but it was the we call it the never day. They she said he will He will never look you in the eye. He will never mainstream. He will never say. I love you Never say I love you never live on his own never play sports and for him. That was a big deal You know that that hit hard wasn't too hopeful wasn't too hopeful. It's pretty negative Yeah, almost anybody and we didn't see anybody ever advocating like you we didn't we didn't see anybody with a platform like ours Having a conversation nationally about you know, a child with autism. What do I feel like to you? Witnessing an expert telling you there really wasn't a future for RJ Oh, we it was bleak cried a lot and then I rolled up my sleeves and I went to work, right? Like I cried and I moved past and I was like, you know I got my you know Norma Ray on and I was like, okay I'm about I'm about to go advocate for this kid Rodney had a little different journey. What was yours? How did it change fatherhood for you? Well, first off I went in denial, you know, I didn't believe it I first I didn't know what autism was right? So I didn't understand it She educated herself and I went to the mode of I can fix it. Mm-hmm, you know, let me fix my son Let me coach him. Let me get him right and I was doing all the wrong things and it caused friction in our relationship And it wasn't working. Yeah, so you went to this proactive crazy mama crazy mama mode. What do you actually do? I crazy mama I tried to intervene with him like I try to get in his face and just you know, almost like, you know I brought he said he wanted to coach the autism. I'm out of him I wanted to mama the autism out of him and but I got on my knees and I did something called floor time Which is a therapy that you do and to help children with autism interact So I was just really in his face constantly and trying to you know, pull him into our world And how long until you started to think this might work? Do you had a glimmer of hope despite what the experts said there were moments, you know with autism? It's like small wins, right? So if he would react to something his sister did, you know, he would just like Connect with her and like roll his eyes at her like yes He rolled his eyes at his sister like if it sounds so normal, right like just normal typical behavior And then later on when we had younger kids little brothers They annoyed the heck out of him right and that kind of helped him You know that they were like little therapists because nothing's more annoying than a little brother, right? And so we would see him and he told his brother to shut up and Ronnie and I were like, yes Did you hear that baby? So little stuff like that, but we also did though take him to an allergist and We wanted to discover to discover what his sensitivities were and him and his sister twin sister had a very very high gluten sensitivity Now I didn't we you know, we I didn't know what gluten was I'm like, that's something you Elmer's like what was that? I Really did and I felt so uneducated. I swear I have a college degree, but I didn't know what was going on. So Gluten is weak basically and it's in everything and we found that when he ate wheat. Yeah, he was regressed He was disconnected more. You could see it. They could see it like sugar, you know Sugar makes you your kids go to sugar high. He would go on a gluten high. So we remove that from his diet We saw that helped a little bit We just try little things along the way.

You should clap for that, too and Love dessert inspired breakfast. This is an overnight oats I don't know if you're familiar with overnight oats, but they're so easy to make you use old-fashioned oats I use a little almond milk It stays in the fridge overnight and in the morning you just assemble the ingredients and you're gonna make a parfait now I hope don't you know, are you up for it? I'm up for it. So this is the overnight oats. That's the first layer Oh, we're doing half. Yes. Sorry. That's my fault Yeah, I thought you'd watch happy Then half the Greek yogurt This is Greek yogurt mixed with a little bit of sweetener a little bit of vanilla and then there's the peach cobbler part This is peaches. I have to switch You don't have to it could be messy the messier the better, right? We like to be messy in the kitchen the oats in the fridge. Yeah, you based it in milk I would you know you you add the almond milk and the oats and a little sweetener a little salt a little vanilla and the flavor is phenomenal and the texture is perfect and the almond milk makes it really really creamy and Honestly, you would never know that. This is not like a fantastic delicious dessert parfait. It's a dessert This is a race by the way The race it looks good, but most importantly obviously I said it earlier it makes itself while you're sleeping Yes while you're sleeping and then you do the little assembly in the morning This has almost 20 grams of protein like 18 and a half grams of protein. So it's great It's a really good breakfast day off diet That was our recommendation that you have up 20 grams of protein in the morning because that way you'll feel satiated all day So regular serving a peach cobbler, which y'all love 419 calories hungry girls peach cobbler parfait for breakfast 284 calories That's worth it. I know everything you may actually don't want to taste the oats because the oats are the only problem I have in this thing, but I love them There is sweet. They're good. All right Everyone has another little thing. I won't take a look at this. You're gonna love it. It's her five-step slow cooker chicken fajitas.

So it looks like this when we're done It is such a great easy recipe again slow cooker recipes. You set it and forget it You can go to work. You could let him cook you do whatever you need to do and you can use a traditional flour or Corn tortilla or if you want to save more calories and carbs you could use lettuce to wrap your fajitas And so watch this you really want to show off. Yeah, if you really watch this get ready There it is you saw how neat I was with the oatmeal this is so embarrassing to spill that and it looks like this Yeah, and it's it's really delicious. It tastes like traditional fajitas for a fraction of the calories again 20 more grams of protein so you can't eat it a Regular serving or chicken fajitas in a restaurant go off today 437 calories on average hungry girls slow cooker chicken, but he does 128 calories. That's worth it Especially with 20 grams of protein. All right, my favorite one though. This is Lisa's chicken zucchini Solo, Maine, let's get it. So low. I get it.
