I am now ready

I have been putting off losing weight. I just haven't felt motivated to do anything. I don't think that I have been "depressed" per say but I just haven't felt a need to exercise or lose weight. Well, I got on the scale and when it squeaked out "get off you're hurting me" I realized that I have let myself go just a little. I have enjoyed doing and obviously eating anything I have wanted to. This includes anything for Christmas (yes, I am aware it's February) and a bunch of chocolate for Valentine's day.

Today, I was reading comedy. I found myself laughing, I mean really laughing...and then it happened. I realized that I was not only laughing but I was also jiggling. And not in a good way (ie. large boobs). Well, I have finally got to "that point" where I am ready to do something about my weight other than trying to avoid losing it.

I talked to a nice person today who was a personal trainer. She was just the prettiest little thing. I mean little. My left leg is bigger than her whole body. She was talking about Shakeology. I have never tried the product I have used Isagenix in the past. I have decided to do some research to see which product is more natural.

I have to admit I am in favor of Isagenix because I know that it works. Now I know that some people are thinking if it works why did you gain it back? I will tell you. Just like anything else you have to keep up with it and try to stay on a good and consistent exercise program. I DID NOT DO THAT.

Oh well, I'm not dead yet. So I will try again. I will use this blog as a sounding board to keep my progress in check and to make sure I don't cheat...much.

Until next time....

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 ...

16 days later...

Well, it's been sixteen days since my last post and well I can honestly say that I am totally disappointed. I thought that I would see some sort of growth but I haven't. What's worse is that my nails are so thin and weak that I had to actually cut some of my nails because they tore. Not because they grew. They were weak to begin with but at least they feel a little better. I mean I can now take a shower and the hot water doesn't hurt my fingernails. I am also a bit perplexed at the my second to the last finger. If you look close you can see the part of the nail that had solar on it and the amount of growth but my nail never got longer and this is not one of the one's that I had to trim. Things that make you go hummmm.  So here are my nails. I have been using the Nail-Aid Keratin for 16 days. It says 3 days growth but in three days I saw no growth. I have been receiving e-mails and comments suggesting that I use the O.P.I. Nail Strengthening but I refuse. ...

It's been three months....

Okay it's been three months since I started this journey. I had decided to stop being a slave to my fake nails and go all natural. For better or worse, I wanted to stop putting so many chemicals in and on my body and just let nature take it's course. Having said that, I knew I was in for a rough ride. For starters, I have been wearing solar/acrylic nails since I was sixteen years old. I now have a 16 year old daughter of my own, so you do the math...I will not help.  Anyway, The first two months were hard. My nails were so thin and weak that I could actually bend what little nail I had backwards without pain. So I cut my nails down to the quick and decided to start new. I first started with using Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps but found out that they have formaldehyde in it. So I changed. I over to Nail-Aid's Keratin and 3 Minute Artificial. It is made in America and does not use formaldehyde and does NOT test on animals.  So, I saw little to no improvement...
