Night Feeding

So I have claimed to be disciplined at least Monday-Thursday and have now realized that I cannot watch T.V. while I am "attempting" to lose weight. I have been watching Being Human on SyFy and every freakin' five minutes there's some damn commercial about food. If its not five dollar footlongs from Subway, its 2 for $20 at Applebee's or some random candy commercial that makes my mouth water.

What a hypocrisy we live in. America wants to be healthy but we kill ourselves with fast food. The worst part is that there are all of these commercials that have Jennifer Hudson singing and promoting Weight Watchers or Janet Jackson toting Nutrisystem (which both are not only awesome entertainers but gorgeous women) and then turn around and show a hot, steamy, out of the oven pizza from Pizza Hut.

I know that I can't make a case against a fast food restaurant for making me fat but these fast food restaurants sure don't make it easy on my will power.  I will just have to stay strong and turn off the stupid television.

Besides I sit there on the sofa for at least an hour staring at a picture frame shining light from the pretty screen and I am mesmerized. It is time for me to get up off the sofa and read a damn book. There are no commercials in a book. Oh and speaking of books...don't forget to check out my website www.jennipherdallas.com and new book coming out.

Until next time...

Day 6 Shake Day

This is day six and although there wasn't anything really eventful about the day there are updates to be shared. My husband and I have noticed that we are sleeping better and waking up with fewer aches and pains and issues. Now, we are not sure if that's because of the weight loss or the cleansing that we are going through. Also, I have noticed that while studying for my LSAT I have more focus and ability to analyze better. My exercise stamina is better. I did workout again at the gym but I am winding down. I am only doing 45 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes walking. No extra bike ride tonight. All in all, we are getting used to the program and feel that we have benefited from it. We are also going to continue try to reach our respective goal weight. Our next purchase will be the 30 program which we will share. Since it cost $200+ each we are trying save money by just splitting it. I will keep you posted and on Tuesday of next week (August 16th) I will post our 9 day pr...

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

3 day nail check in

It had been three days since I have removed my nails and coated them with Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps nail covering. Now the directions say to take off the polish after three days and restart the process all over again with two (2) new coats. When they say that you need to remove the polish after three days and start over, they mean it. Here is what happens on the third day, prompting you to remove the polish. My nails with the initial tear on the polish. The polish starts to lift and tear off. It started with a small uplift on the side of my nails and I pulled off the rest. Surprisingly, the whole thing came off without having to use nail polish remover.The problem with that, though, is that my nails underneath are still very thin and weak.  In this picture the nail is bent. It's a little hard to see it but I am bending my nail. The weak condition of my nails has continued and I see no real change to them . The next picture is of  the top of my nail, showing the te...
