Had a good day today all things considered. Work was as usual and then my daughter had a performance tonight (she’s on a clogging team) and those are always so much fun! It helped get our minds off the stressful parts of life and back on what really matters – family. I need to mention [...]

Two days ago, my husband called me and said he now had health insurance at work that he could add me to. The premium was high (and honestly more than we could afford), but we agreed to do it because of some issues I’ve had over the last couple of years that have gone untreated [...]

I’ve taken pictures of myself everyday (only post them weekly though). I’ve logged my food and fitness everyday. I’ve [...]

I thought I would share some non-weight related stuff! My sister is currently rocking, in a rocking chair and has been for over 29 hours now. It’s all part of an event held by a local Toyota dealership, where the longest rocker will win a 2010 Toyota Matrix and the charity they are rocking for [...]

You may recall that I recently posted that I wanted to try out some new foods. Well, I tried something new last night! Yep, we went to Perkins last night and I was in the mood to try something new…I looked at the salmon and I just wasn’t brave enough to order that quite yet, [...]

I haven’t really been eating out at lunch which is a huge change for me because I used to eat fast food everyday.

Walked about a mile last night with my family and got 2 miles in this morning at the gym and I feel good great. My breathing is a lot better and the coughing is all but gone, thankfully! Gotta go for now, just wanted to share a little James Brown this mornin’.
