When you finally realize it works…

As a person who is now getting the point of burying my grandparents and other relatives I see starting to get older, I’m realizing how important these memories are.  Pictures can’t be replaced.  They tell a story.  Bad or good, they show us for what we were at a certain point in time and they are to serve as a marker…a kind of…

Week 4 Complete!

Nutrisystem gives us challenges each week.  This week (well, actually next 10 days) is to log an activity for 10 days straight.  Oy.  Y’all, that means I gotta get up and do something for 10 days.  Well, nothing like the present to get out and be purposeful

Day 10 and 11. I’ve found cake!

All in all, I’m feeling pretty good about making it through Days 10 and 11.  No weird ‘I’m gonna quit’ like I did on Whole 30 and I feel pretty good and strong.  I also took a 45 minute walk yesterday (Day 11) and I noticed I…
