New Years goal in weight loss and life

This past week with the New Year and trying to get back on track with everything after the holidays has been a true struggle.  So, this year I am going to try a little harder to be a little better at writing in this blog.  My goal is to write once a week.  In the past I would not want to write if I was struggling with anything in my life.  I think this year I am going to get real with you and I am going to talk about my struggles when they happen instead of waiting until I feel better about it.  In this weight loss journey I have had many struggles but I have also had many successes.  Sometimes Christy or Chantel have been the ones to point out those successes to me when I am struggling.  I think that is the main reason a life coach is important to have.   You need them for accountability but you also need someone that is not in the mix or what is hard for you to tell you "hey you are doing a good job", 
      Now for my challenge to you.  I have a Facebook page that is called NEVER GIVE UP.  If you want to join me in my no flour and no sugar challenge join that page and we can share recipes, motivation, or even our struggles.  I would love to have you help me and I'll help you. 
I'm starting tomorrow to again do the 6 weeks or no flour and no sugar.  People ask me my eating protocol and now I am going to tell you. I eat 2 times a day about 11 and about 6pm.  I eat Fruits and vegetables and meat mostly.  Fruit in the morning and veggies at night.  I try to ignore when I am hungry and tell myself that my body is eating the fat storage that I have been holding onto.   I did add sugar and flour back into my life only if I planned it 24 hours in advance.  I've decided that flour and sugar are not good for my body at all.  So right here and right now I am challenging myself to get rid of it. My ultimate goal is to feel better all the time.  I've decided that when I eat flour and sugar even on an occasion, I don't feel good after eating it.  So, who is with me?  Who wants to join me in 6 weeks of no flour and no sugar?  Comment on my Facebook post and I will add you to the group NEVER GIVE UP!  Remind yourself you can do hard things.  Let's find joy in life and not food.

A Different Kind of Mission

A Different Kind of Mission By Lena Mattice When my son was a junior in high school, he told me he wanted to play college football. I smiled and told him, “Okay—but it’s going to take a lot of work.” I asked, “And,What about serving a mission?” We talked about different scenarios, wondering if a college might let him serve and then return to play. But we had no idea where to even begin in getting colleges to notice him. His coach mentioned a football camp three hours away. So we drove, and he participated. A few coaches took interest and said they’d be watching his senior year. But that senior year was right after COVID. Schedules were unpredictable, and opportunities were uncertain. We still didn’t know who to talk to or how to get his name out there. Then, during Homecoming week, the team we were scheduled to play had to cancel due to a COVID outbreak. His coach jumped on Twitter, trying to find a replacement team. He found one—but they were two divisions above ours. We needed a gam...

 How does weight loss  play into raising kids.  If you are an emotional eater raising kids plays a huge role in weight loss.  I've said it before, raising kids is a hard feat.  But raising kids is the greatest joy you will see in this life.  When your child runs up to you and is so happy to see you, that fills your  hear with so much joy!       Now back to weight loss.  Pregnancy is hard on a woman's body.  Some women can bounce back real quick  but some women like myself , their bodies do not bounce back in fact after one natural birth and 3 C-sections my body shows that it did not bounce back very well at all.  The more I lea rn about it, the more I realize that my body did not bounce back very well because of the choices I made after my babies were born.  If I would have ate healthy along with my exercise  maybe my body would have bounced back a little better.  When I was nursing my babies...

The Jack Rabbit Factor by Leslie Householder

 In the early 2000's I was introduced to the writings of Leslie Householder.  There was an author that I followed named Marnie Pehrson now her last name is Kuhns.  She is a great author and I started following her because she started a club called The Clean Romance Club. I was always looking for authors that wrote clean romance.  Anyways one day I received an email from her talking about Leslie Householder and asking all her followers to follow her at Rare Faith. com  I was very interested in the topic rare faith so I went to her website and subscribed to her emails.  I found her newsletter and web site very interesting and at that point I knew that one day I would want to look into what she was talking about.  Now because I had 4 little ones and a day care to run, I felt like I didn't have time to pursue the things Leslie was talking about at that time.  I took her emails and put them in a folder to save for a later date that I would have time to...
