Empowered


It's been a minute since I've been on here.
I put myself in a short time-out.
 My Doctor put me in a diet time-out.
No sugar,
 salt & pepper
 dairy
 yeast,
or fruit
no beverages except for water & herbal teas..
pretty much eliminated everything.
The list of what I can eat is shorter.
Lean beef, chicken and brown rice & vegetables.
I was excited to do it for health reasons,
but it has been really tough ! 
Throw Easter, Brandon's Birthday & Mother's Day in, and watch me squirm a little.
Yet...I did not give in. 
Honestly, I am pretty dang proud of myself.
It's been a game changer.
Three more weeks.
My girlfriend checked my blood sugar the other day.
80
it was
126.


It was a very good day !!

I have discovered a lot about myself through this.
 (like I will survive without chocolate, coffee or Ice Cream)
I feel stronger and more energetic.
I like this new season I am in.
I plan on continuing with healthier choices.
I love the way I feel.

Today I am grateful for:
a girlfriend that wasn't afraid to let me know I wasn't being the best I could be.
Yoga with Adriene on YouTube
water in a wineglass
a special mothers day note from Brandon 
upping my hand weights

" Let disempowering thoughts pass  you by,
don't own them.
Select a more empowering thought."

Stay safe & be well!
