Well, with the start of June comes the onslaught of craziness! But let me back up a hair... The emotional rollercoaster of the last week or so, had blindsided me, and while I was working on a reduction plan (using Paul McKenna's techniques, etc, feeling strong and confident) this was very short lived! I became so upset that the thought of food made me ill. And I didn't eat basically. So after two or three days of that - when I did eat, my body absorbed it like a sponge!
Ok, things are settling down, forgiveness is in the works - and while I will NEVER put my head back in the sand and assume the osterich position...I cannot live in the place of being 'unsure of myself' 24/7. So, I have HAD to lean on my faith, and I have HAD to let go, and give so much of this over to God, just to be able to breathe!
Feeling much stronger, and fully aware of myself, my choices, my wants or needs,... and this month is now full of GOALS.
Food wise, I will be basically experimenting with 'carb cycling'. (or 'macro-patterning'.) The short version - it's what Keld did, only on a natural foods, low carb type plan...with a one day a week indulgence plan to add in some old favorites, and replace the leptin in my system. (a hormone that gets depleted while on low carb, and the hormone that triggers FAT BURNING.)
Exercise wise, - I will continue to do some at home, some at the gym, and some 'active lifestyle' things out in the yard, or the world. Just trying to keep up w/myself this month ought to produce some added exercise!!!
And of course, lots of water, which is my norm and habit at this point!
Hope you are all well...thank you again for all of your love and support.
Much Love.

Paula, sometimes it is so difficult to continue with our lifestyle changes when life throws us curve balls. You are doing excellent, and I am sure that this month will prove to be a very successful one for you. Have fun with all the activities in the next couple of days. Hugs, lots of love, and of course, continued prayers coming your way!

Wow, your son is going far! I am sure he is superexcited as are you but also supersad. You are close to your kids, (aren't all mum's) and while you want him to fly his wings and soar, its hard to be left behind. Holding you in my heart while a baby leaves the nest. He is going to have a ball!
