Found a new Love!

Phil the love of my life and I were out shopping the other night. Came across this little gem. Going low carb to help me loose the weight I have had to give up so much for the fight of weight loss. But never the less it is my life style change now.

So Delicious Unsweetened Coconut Milk I found is so GOOD! I can mix my protein mix with it. Taste better then water I have been mixing my protein mix with. To me it taste much like skim milk. So smell and pure white! I can't wait to try it in some other things that I make that are low carb. This milk only has one carb for one cup and 50 cal. I was so excited about this I emailed my "Nut" and told her about this. My "Nut" is my Nutritionist at my weight loss center.

I wish it was this easy to find the things that taste good that I like. This is a lifestyle change now for me but I will be honest, I am tired of the same old things. I have my staples but I am now feeling it is the same things. So, I am on a mission to find the low carb good stuff! If you have any great low carb stuff let me know in the comments!

See you later!

11 Month Update

11 Month Update 
For my birthday I asked my friends on Facebook what daring thing I should do!  Got lots of answers and I will be doing one of them real soon...as soon as my shoulder is up to it so stay tune!
So on my birthday I had my husband help me with an updated picture.  I had visited my weight loss doctor a few days before and even though I did not see Onederland (weight in the hundreds) I did have a BMI of 29.1!  I am now overweight and no longer obese!  I would have loved to have hit Onederland but I will take this as a wonderful gift to myself! I have to admit, I now check myself out and saying...I am looking good!  Shopping is wonderful now!  I even got into a size 14 jeans the other day...still a bit tight but I GOT them on!  September they will be mine!

Now, I am wishing Florida was cooler again.  I can't wait for the cooler weather!  I find working out is harder in this heat and I want to do a few 5k's this fall and winter. My first one will be the 15th of October.  Not a 5k but it is the first walk I did on this journey.  The Walk From Obesity is very close to my heart and can't wait to do it again.  Last year I could not do much, but I did it.  I am hoping more will come out and do this walk. 

Now as I come up on my one year mark, I think back to where I was this time last year.  I kick myself looking at old photos of myself.  I wish I had done this sooner for myself, for my family.  But I have done this and I will keep on going!  Long term I am going to be the best that I can be!  It going to be a great life and my hubby better hang on and come a long for the ride because I am ready to do anything!
