Sugar update...

Hey all!

So in terms of my battle with sugar I have unfortunately been loosing recently. I feel like my relationship with sugar is like an abusive relationship, I love it but I abuse it. Especially around this time of year with Halloween candy being on sale and Christmas treats and pastries everywhere it's particularly difficult for me to resist my cravings. I was doing so very well before my Europe trip but all went to hell when I returned. I need to get back into my previous state of mind. Also, a deterring factor is that I've been able to keep off the 15 or so pounds I managed to lose. That is a deterrent because I don't feel the urgency I felt before so it makes it harder to stay on track... I just have to remember my ultimate goal and somehow make it my number one focus for the next few months. Wish me luck!

Happy Birth of Love

Hey guys!

Yes I know it's been ages since my last post but I've been sooooooooo... etc... busy in the last two months that I actually didn't have the brain power nor motivation to write anything. Today however, is a special day! It's the day the love of my life was born! I am a person who loves easily and forgives easily as well... it's a gift God has given me. I always talk about how I love my family and friends and God. It's true I feel deeply connected to people and, perhaps naively, I believe I AM connected to everyone. However, there is one person in my life that has been able to inspire me more than anyone else. He is my own personal gift sent from God. Today is the day he was born and I will always be grateful to God and his family for allowing me to be part of his life and for him to be part of mine. We've been in a relationship for almost 7 years and at times it has been rocky but every bump in the road has only become part of a stronger foundation. I'm so lucky that we connect so well and that our lives connect so well also. So here's to you my love, all the best in life and beyond.
