accountability

 Hello, I am posting this for accountability. From January 17th to July15th I have put on 10lbs. Some of it is lack of discipline but some of it is because my thyroid has went wonky. This interferes with my hunger levels, sugar levels, mood levels, energy levels etc , Of course, all my weight goes to my stomach.  I am NOT giving up and will not use this setback to derail me. I will continue my journey and continue to make progress. PROGRESS OVER PERFECTION. I want to thank all those who have encouraged me and spurred me to take control of my health. Its a lifelong commitment.  I want to share two pictures. One is from my heaviest and the 2nd is last week. Please excuse the hair and look ar the difference in my face. Im blown away at how BIG I was. Please keep me in your prayers. I can only do this with the help of God. 





Have a great weekend

A Day at Daycare

Good Morning Friends, 

I just want to share some pictures of my Auggie at daycare. To some this is not a big deal but for us it is. WHY?? bc Auggie is reactive to people and animals. So the fact that he can go to daycare without any problems is a blessing for us. He even stayed the night once and was fine. 











Have a great Sunday!

MISC

 Hello! I have so much to share Im not sure where to start. Let's start with the fun stuff. Last weekend my husband and I went to Mrytle Beach for the weekend. We had such a wonderful time. We had delicious food, visited the Alligator Adventure, saw some family and ate some more good food. It was an easy relaxing time. It was well enjoyed and we want to do another weekend sometime toward the end of the year. Here are some pictures:











During our trip we had some good friends watch our Auggie. Here he is "helping with chores"



We sent the dog to day care yesterday. They said he did good. We want to start taking him on a regular basis so that he can get some socialization. He was super tired after his day of play. This is him last night


Auggie went to daycare yesterday bc I had a colonoscopy. Long story short every thing went well and I do not need to go back for 10 years unless there is a problem. 


Well, thats whats been up with me. 

Until next time

Moving Forward

Good Morning Friends, 

I am back into weight loss mode. For several months that mindset alluded me. I was so excited to have reached my first goal that I relaxed and "enjoyed the view".  However, something in my mind shifted this last weekend. I knew it was time to lose those last 30+ pounds and I dont want them finding me again. I gain weight easily so I must stay vigilant in my nutrition. Its hard bc I LOVE food. Did you ever watch "Friends"? I love food like Joey did but I will share!!

Auggie is doing well. He still pulls on the leash but we are planning to get him a harness to help deter him plus I am working with him on the focus command. The key is to distract him from whatever it is that has grabbed his attention. He is doing ok with it. It's just going to take time and consistency. Here is a pic of Auggie just bc he is so cute





Until next week

Happy Birthday to me

Yesterday was my 51st birthday. It was a low key quiet type of day. Spend most of the afternoon with my mom and husband just talking then went to dinner with several of my friends. I am incredibly blessed. Honestly I could not ask for anything more than to be surrounded by family and friends.  We ate a local pizzeria and the food was phenomenal and the service was top notch. I dont go there often bc it is laden with fat and calories but for my birthday I chose to enjoy. Speaking of food choices, I am still doing well with my lifestyle change. I am maintaining my 80+ loss and my goal is to lose about 35 more. I have added crunches to my routine to try to flatten my stomach just a bit. It seems that is where my weight tends to be. I would be happy with my current weight if my stomach was flatter. I would be able to get into smaller clothes as well. I pray everyone has a great weekend.


Be Kind to one another

Mom brought me this wonderful cake!! It was so good

Enjoying the "View"

Good Morning, 

I just wanted to share that I am in a pause right now concerning my weight loss. What I mean by that is I'm enjoying where I am at in this journey. I am maintaining the loss and I am not regaining the weight. I am staying under 200 pounds. I am ok with that for now. I'm focusing on healthier choices and better mindset. This is a lifelong process and I'm learning a lot.  I've gained so much the last several months. I've gained confidence, higher self esteem,  a new outlook on life and more. If you are interested about my journey, please reach out to me.
