I forgot I started at 47.,..cuz here I am. 48.  2.5 months into 48 at that.  Starting over??  meh, sort of. I have gone since January 8th without eating more than 40 carbs a day. No bread, crackers, rice, potatoes or sugar. How much weight I've lost you ask..... zero.  Of course my husband has lost 14.  He runs every day though.  Yup, me??  that is a no.  just...no.  But "Tomorrow" is always there..and if it isn't, well then the Good Lord likes me in person fat and glorious.  Life is a whirlwind of financial woes, kids never seem to stop despite how old they are. OH...we have gained another dog Bailey.  Dog #2 gifted to us by Child#1.   We are suckers, but .... what is another dog??  So what. ...off to cook some protein rich food. Chicken and artichoke hearts.  The best part about that dish is the mozzarella cheese in it.  48...its just 48.

Old, is it a number?

47 years old. I don't even know what to say about that.  Its like I am ancient, some days I feel ancient. But yet...its like starting again. With three kids, 22,19 & 16...Its like I am now starting a new life. I don't look good, I don't feel good. My marriage is rocky...on a good day. I know the Lord, but...can't say I am faithful to Him. Despite a major meltdown of judgment in 1997, I am faithful to my husband. I'm still not forgiven...but here we are..........................yea. That sucks. But another story. My deepest desire right now is to lose about 130 pounds. I will start today...Sept 18th. At least this is what I am telling myself. At this time next year, I would like to be planning a breast reduction. I am so done with being this "Me". SO...here we go. Here's to starting over. Sort of.
