Hi Everyone :-)

Well this morning I was 4lbs up :(  My body weight likes to bounce.  Alteast my bounce is the lowest its been this year.   I might or might not have my cycle beginning that could be the reason for the 4lbs.
I manged to drink 96 oz of water today; that has been my target I got close the last couple of days but today I hit my target.  I was told by a health practitioner that drinking that amount of water a day will help with my brain clearing up and lifting the meno-brain fog I have been experiencing.  I figured I would  give it a try!   I don't hear the fog horn as much LOL    Also this week I have started using kefir liquid for my probiotics; I add a Tbsp to my morning shake.

Thanks all :-)

Yes support does help....  It does lift my spirits :-)  Thanks for reminding me that I haven't thrown in the towel just in that itself is a success.

I kept to another day of no wheat!! yippy! had a delicious dinner of steak bites with saute onions and mushrooms, plus a glass of white wine.    I felt like a treat I never treat myself to wine, but today was hot and stressful at work.  So making a nice dinner  with wine was what the day called for.  Helps the mood too LOL.   My daughter came by and we went for a walk, what a beautiful sunset and great time for a walk.   Then to starbucks had their black ice tea...no sugar.

Keeping on keeping on ...one step at time

PS...I put on my capri jeans that were tight at the beginning of summer and they fit great now! even a little baggy :-)  score!

Hey Everyone

So much for keeping my blog current :(  I would love to say it's because I am so busy but mostly its because I am having such a ruff time with my weight.  I made it  down another pound after 4 weeks of effort.  Hot flashes have started up and my mood sucks to be around.  Isn't this a cheerful post. I decided to keep blogging even though I had nothing positive to share.  I thought it would be good for me to see what I went through on this journey, so that is why I am just blogging today.  I love everybody's post as the share ideas and recipes but for me at this point I don't have allot to share.  Just the battle it's all I got.  I have been trying to do my weights and walking but I am not consistent.    I believe that is one of my major weakness lack of consistency as you can see by my blogs...it shows everywhere.  

Still no sugar! Yeah!  and have dropped the wheat again - it was sneaking back in.  Wow this is an up hill battle!
