Day Two. 29 to go.
I’m in the middle of day two. Chicken is roasting. I know that will help with tonight and tomorrow. Because the kids haven’t been letting me sleep this week, JD let me go back to bed this morning when he got up, and I slept until almost 11am! I missed breakfast. Which is vitally important…

Day One >> Whole30 Hard.
This program is already making me feel like a caveman. I want to grunt and growl at everyone. I want to go hunting. For chocolate. It’s all because I want something sweet, and I am post lunch. Even though I had 1/4 of an orange after lunch, which was really sweet. I want processed sugar…

A planned day of epic fails (and other random life happenings).
What is going on today. Today is JD’s and my nine year anniversary, and we have decided to completely indulge in the crappiest of food. Two reasons for this. 1) to get it out of our system…a last hoorah of sorts. 2) to kind of make ourselves feel the food. To feel that it is…

Whole30 in ONE WEEK. Oh crap.
I’m getting my mind in the right condition, and I’m kind of scared crapless about it. I am usually one to impulsively jump into things, and so I wanted to make sure and know that this is something that we definitely want to do. It will take a lot of commitment to stay on the…

I hate the wagon.
So. I’m gonna be honest here. I fell off that stupid wagon. Like, I fell hard and it took off without me and I am having some serious trouble catching up with it. It’s leaving me in the dust. I’m ready to make a change, and I need a challenge to help me. So I…

Some Encouraging Stuff
When I first started this journey, I think it was right around January 20…Jon’s bday. While my whole family has definitely benefitted from it, I am the one who has really bought into it all. The food, the exercise, the state of mind it takes. Finally, this time, it took with me. I’m not sure…

I Am Free To Run
This is just a post to update you on my journey to being healthy. I post regularly on my personal blog about running and everything else I think about and do, but I thought a general “what’s up” post was in order here. In January, we made the choice to start eating like our son. To…

BOOYA!!!
Today I ate a bunch of crap. It was so delicious! Ok but see…there were some great small victories in there. Because I actually ate HALF (maybe even less) of what I normally would have eaten and it made no difference to me. I didn’t have to fight myself. I was just done. A small…

Well…I guess I'm a naughty blogger
I have a lot of things going on…a lot of writing. I have this, a personal blog, a book reviewer blog, a photography business and blog, and a family history blog. Plus I am knee deep in writing a book. So yeah. Somehow that seems like so much…but still a poor excuse for letting two…

A Little Honesty
This is about my journey, and it’s ups and downs. So here’s a little honesty. When I’m struggling, it helps to see that others have gone through the same thing. Especially when I can look ahead and see that they have gotten through it, and made it to the other side. Or what seems like…

The Beginning >> Goals
Our house is full of crap food still…bad cereal, bad crackers, bad bread, bad everything! We have lots of meat in the freezer, and hardly any veggies or fruit anywhere to be seen. Original plan was to just eat it till it was gone, but not buy any more. I thought that that would help…
