November 10

Today, Im thankful for my health. For a new day everyday. For my family, friends, my therapist and my child. For legs that are not paralyzed but can walk. Despite internal injuries and tears that I've faced this year ---it has been an amazing year of blessings. For I have found--I am not alone.

Today begins my journey of eating healthier. Its not going to be an over night thing where I wake up tomorrow morning with the ability and willpower to resist all things that are bad for us.

But it begins my journey of blogging, to help me watch what I eat--see what I eat.

This morning started off....I love mushrooms. Do you? A little olive oil to saute sliced and diced onions and mushrooms. Seasoned with herbs, salt and pepper--then eggs poured over and cooked till done. Sounds great right? yeah...well...I fried up some bacon too. :( Not so great for a weightloss journey. :)
But hey, no toast!

Mid am snack, greek non fat vanilla yogurt. Okay now we're gettin' somehwere...maybe.

Supper---well....i had left over hamburger stew, so...I poured in a can of chili and seasoned it right up....half of a piece of cornbread that was also left over, to go with it. And then....well...who can resist cranberry oatmeal pecan walnut cookies? So yeah. Ok I admit it. I had two! Downed with orange/pineapple juice.

Oh right. I also snuck in a few caramel chocolate rolos thruout the day.

So thats it, thats my first day of mealtime, snack time and sneaktime blogging! And...its only 4pm!

Weightloss journey

Today, I start my weightloss journey---all over again.

This has been a year of physical struggles after being rear ended, having 5 discs in my lower back and 2 in my mid/upper spine torn and a labrum tear in my hip. yet, I managed to lose 25 lbs. How? By eating right.

Now, ive gained that weight back, and my healing period continues. My pain is down most days less than a 3---and spikes on its own accord. Running is not an option, squats are not an option...

But today, I think I can walk. I think I can do more strength training. Come, walk and talk with me as my adventures in weightloss begin.
