My meeting with the Nutritionist went pretty good. I was a little scared that she would be a Food Nazi and tell me I could never have any treat type food again. Luckily this was NOT the case.

She did the general health questions, questions about my typical food and my exercise routine. She also tested my resting metabolism. This I was excited about because I know that you can only do so much with the basic questions that CK, WW, daily plate, etc use to determine what your calorie int...

Last week was a mixed bag for me. The first half of the week was great for me food wise. But I had a hard time on Friday and Saturday. It was the first time in a long time that I actually binged.

On Friday I had to go to my Friends father’s funeral. It was a grave side service. He was in the service for 8 years so...

I just felt so strong during all my runs (my natural pace is just getting faster and I just feel great when I run), personal training and swimming laps. Also my clothes have been fitting so much better and I have been getting more compliments. ...

Last week was a crazy busy week, the weekend was busy too!!! Good news I had a 2 pound loss this week!!! Even under crazy work and personal stress. Scale was 220 this morning!

Work has been crazy busy and on top of it my best friends father has Pancreatic Cancer and their family decided it was time for hospice. Carmen asked me if I could come home with her Thursday and Friday so she could have a friend but so I could also help with the transition. I am glad I was there for them. It wa...
