Still Keto?
I started Keto in July of 2018 when my doctor repeatedly described me as MORBIDLY OBESE and I failed my blood pressure test for my DOT physical. She also told me I was pre-diabetic.

Everyone I talk to or watch on YouTube says the best way to save on a grocery bill is to meal plan and I agree. So why do I avoid it like the plague? Why does this conversation go on in my head? I need to get May’s meal plan done. First, though, I thinkContinue reading “Meal Planning or Leg Waxing?”
For the Love of Reading
I got the love of reading from my mother. From as far back as I can remember my mom has always had a book. I didn’t understand it when I was little but it seemed to make her happy. She introduced me to the joy of reading when I was a new teenager, so 12. Continue reading “For the Love of Reading”
