I don't much like being overweight. Nor do I like this yo-yo effect from not paying much attention over the last year. Regardless of the reasons why - this rollercoaster ride is my LAST!
I think back to when I reached my goal - and how I felt, and how I looked - seriously, I would (and will) give up A LOT to get back there again!
I'm not sure that I will ever really understand - I just want to be able to live, eat, love, play, exercise and enjoy... LIFE. That's it. Nothing earth shattering. No marathons or ironman's... not that there is anything wrong w/ that (if you are so inclined). I'll even respect you, admire you, envy you...and cheer you on. But that's not me.
I simply long for the day again - when I stand in a dressing room and feel OK w/ putting on clothes that aren't trying to HIDE something, and instead I am just either happy w/ the way the clothes look on me - or not.
Went shopping yesterday - can you tell!!!!
Much Love!

Hey Everyone - Yeah! I'm doing fine :) Just a bit crazy (as usual).
Back in the saddle and just chugging along. For those of you who know me, I have my mind focused on doing what I need to do each day...and waiting out the week to evaluate my progress.
Nothing much happens overnight! But joined together... I have been trying to put one 'good' day together w/ 'lots' of good days! It is starting to make a difference. My energy levels are back up. My mental attitude is strong. And I feel better about myself - so those are all a plus!
Since I am not weighing myself right now - my clothes seem to be hovering around the same but slightly looser and more comfortable. I simply keep reminding myself of the time it has taken in the past - staying true to myself and what I am doing - and resting in the knowledge I am doing all that I know to do...and it will come off. One pound at a time. Just like it went on!!!
Hope you are all well. Enjoy this beautiful summer's day!

I love this site for so many reasons! I sooooo appreciate all of your kindness and support, while I work my way thru the craziness of depression, grief and LIFE! Getting back to a place I feel mentally 'strong'...and I am so grateful to the friends here who have just lovingly received me back here, with no judgement! You guys ROCK!
Most of my journal entries are for me to keep track of what's going on in my life at any given point - so if I run into an issue - I can look back and learn from it.
It dawned on me yesterday that these past few years have been a successful training ground on changing my life to a low carb lifestyle. Just found myself in a random conversation w/ someone at the church office, who was asking questions about making changes. Before I knew it, I had jumped in - helped explain some misunderstandings - and encouraged them w/ all the pointers I have come to learn about for myself. YUP! It's all starting to stick!!
Had a great day yesterday - in store for another today. Been crazy busy, (when has my life not been!) - but that's ok... I am happy to be home and happy to be busy!
Much Love - Make the most of another Glorious Day!!!

Just getting back into the swing of things being back home...and between that and the heat - my calories have been lower than normal. Trying to pay attention so as not to send my body into the 'starvation mode' it likes to default to (when my foods go to low.)
I have been trying to be faithful w/ my water intake. Still drink too much coffee I think. But I do get in about 60-80 oz of water a day on top of the coffee.
Haven't ventured onto the scale yet. No real change in how anything feels - clothing wise. Patience is key.
Trying to keep up my activity levels. (a bit hard while the carb flush was going on). But feeling better the past day or so. (a bit too much indulgence during vacation :)
All in all - feeling good!
Much Love.

Hey Everyone, Well...it was such a fantastic trip. My favorite 'Cuz / Sister / Best Friend... gave me a Surprise Cruise for my 50th Birthday. Just her and I and tons of fun in the sun!
Now, I have never gone away w/ my hubby, or my Mom, or my Kids~ so this was w/out a doubt...a FANTASTIC TRIP!
I didn't think it would be. But two women, both turning 50...OH MY...what laughs, what insight...it was just ridiculous how easy it was to finish each other's sentences, or get the joke that no one else even noticed!
Then I went back to her house for a week to visit w/ my last living relative on my mom's side of the family...my Auntie! She's 93 and amazing. And I totally enjoyed spending time w/ her.
I am guessing by the clothing...I don't think I gained...but I sure didn't lose. Everything fits the same as when I left. And that's ok. (Sure beats the alternative!)
But now, I have some goals between here and the end of the year. Every change in life requires a little focus...a positive attitude...and a 'Get 'er Done' Spirit!!! And in the end...that is the BEST GIFT my 'cuz gave to me!
Back on a Mission to see this through - and find my way back to a MUCH more comfortable weight, a much healthier lifestyle, and something that becomes second nature w/out having to 'think' about it all the time. An every other day commitment to exercise or activity (thank you GOD that I am healthy enough TO exercise or increase my activity!) - and a GRATEFUL heart to embrace LIFE and all that it has for me in this new decade!
Hope you are all well...off to go read some journals. MUCH LOVE!
