Foundations

Hello! So, some have asked "What will you blog about", and I don't have a specific topic. I have so much going on in my life right now, it'll probably be a good combo/personal journal. 

Our home. We are so beyond thrilled to be building our dream home. We have worked really hard to get where we are today, to be able to do this. I am excited to share the pictures/updates/planning as we move forward. 

Also, something else we are doing...we have changed our lifestyle and eating habits. We decided to do the "Keto"/Low Carb plan. However, I'm also looking into the Non-Surgical Bariatric Program via Citizens Medical Center...I meet with the Dr. on the 23rd for my initial consult. Most people I've told about it, just think I'm nuts for spending that kind of money. The gastric sleeve is not even a thought for me. Because I know I can lose weight, and I know I have poor habits. And I'm not about surgery/complications. I think those who have done the sleeve or surgery, are brave...and in no way, do I think it was an "easy out" because it's far from easy in any aspect to lose weight. A co worker of mine taught me...never make fun of someone who's trying to better themselves. And that is SO true!

So I joined the HealthPlex in 2016 after I had Camryn. I went strong for over a year to classes, the pool, just working out on my own even. Then the move, the holidays, the stress...yeah. But I got back in the groove, and I am going just W & F for now until I meet with the doctor. 

Travis & I began the low carb thing about a week ago. It's been much easier than anticipated, and it helps having a bigger kitchen (here at my parents) to cook in. I've made some delicious stuff, haven't felt deprived, and have lost 8lbs! 

Anyways, I better get to working on some craft projects that have been looming for a few weeks...or months. :) Next blog will be updating on the kids! I can't believe we have a 4 year old & 18 month old...time? Where did you go?
