Weekly Recap: How’s It Going? I lost 2.6 lbs this week. How?! How was that even possible? I skipped a few workouts, ate pizza (even though it was veggie…) and generally felt like a toad all week. I am speechless. Thrilled. Ecstatic. What Worked: I’m still riding the “meal planning” train. I took some timeContinue reading “WW Weigh-In: Week 8”

WW Weigh In: Week 7
Weekly Recap: How’s It Going? This week kicked my butt. Physically and mentally. It’s the start of fall semester at colleges and universities across the country, and almost everyone has questions about their financial aid. This time of year is the higher education equivalent of Black Friday and the day after Christmas. Having said thatContinue reading “WW Weigh In: Week 7”
WW Weigh-In: Week Six
Weekly Recap: How’s It Going? Things slowed down a little this week, which I’d been expecting. My clothes are fitting differently now. I’ve pulled a few things out of the “I Have A Dream” section in my closet and they fit (or almost fit). What Worked: My fIrst week of meal planning went well. WeContinue reading “WW Weigh-In: Week Six”
WW Weigh In: Week Five
Weekly Recap: How’s It Going? Better than I could have ever imagined. I’m amazed. I had to dig around in my closet and find a belt yesterday. I can’t remember the last time I wore a belt. Speaking of belts, the seatbelt in my car even feels different. What Worked: It was another good weekContinue reading “WW Weigh In: Week Five”
WW Weigh In: Week Four
How’s It Going? Pretty. Dang. Good. My “real” pants & shorts (the kind with zippers and buttons) have made a comeback. One pair is so loose I need a belt. Do I even own a belt anymore? Enquiring minds want to know! I may have to find one. A total of three pairs of pantsContinue reading “WW Weigh In: Week Four”
WW Weigh In: Week Three
So far, so good. Three weeks in and I’m down exactly 10 pounds. I’m speechless. I don’t know how it works but I’m not complaining. I wore REAL jeans last week. With a zipper! Not leggings. I couldn’t believe it. I can wear my rings again. There are shorts in my closet from two summersContinue reading “WW Weigh In: Week Three”
WW – The Journey Begins
In case you haven’t noticed, I’m a bit of a chunky gal. I survived breast cancer and developed some pretty good health habits that I continue to use. But age has a way of slowing things down, and the addition of myasthenia gravis made things worse. I take a handful of pills over the courseContinue reading “WW – The Journey Begins”
So What Is Myasthenia Gravis?
June is myasthenia gravis awareness month, and as it draws to a close I thought I would share my experiences with this rare auto-immune diseease. First of all, what IS it? Myasthenia gravis, commonly abbreviated as MG, is an auto-immune disease that affects the communication between the nerves and muscles at the neuromuscular junction. WhenContinue reading “So What Is Myasthenia Gravis?”

Little River Run 5K – April 21, 2018
Mini road trip! It’s the Little River Run 5K! We made our way north to Adel, Georgia to run through Reed Bingham State Park. The race was previously known as the Road Kill Run, which is exactly what you feel like when you’re done. But all good things must come to an end and someoneContinue reading “Little River Run 5K – April 21, 2018”
