When I started this blog it was shortly after
my gastric sleeve surgery. I blogged a long time before
that running an extreme coupon blog and Facebook page.
Between working and taking care of the kids I couldn’t
keep up with the couponing blog.
This blog was created to help people, eating better, exercise etc.
It has now changed and shaped into just more than that.
I share my own personal stories, struggles and I love
to share recipes, DIY and more.
As you all have noticed by now I am also sharing animals,
Scentsy and so much more. I know I have an about section
but let me take a minute to talk about me.
I just turned 45 this year and for some reason I feel it.
I have bone spurs in both my shoulders and knees,
I have back pain that doesn’t stop along with tendinitis
in both of my feet. I am now starting with severe ankle
issues and my wrists are getting bad.
My son has Ehlers Danlos, which I will be making posts
about as well as most Dr’s have not heard of it. I intend on
getting tested for that as well. I have not been hard
on my body, most of my jobs consisted of customer
service so not standing. I didn’t power lift (like my hubby did).
There must be a rhyme or reason to the pain I feel.
I went to see a specialist to get tested for RA, I passed
by 1 point so he would not consider me testing
positive for RA, needles to say there are a few
specialists that I should probably see and get second opinions.
Okay done with the griping. Let me tell you a little bit more about me.
I have been married for 25 years to the love of my life, we
have 3 amazing children that we are proud of.
Our youngest is getting ready to join the Navy and as a mom
I am scared but couldn’t be happier for him.
I currently have 1 granddaughter with a grandson on the way
due in December which should make Christmas interesting.
Since my weightloss surgery I have gained 30 pounds
back and it really bothers me. I want to lose weight but
there are a few things that need to happen. 1. I need to go
back to healthy eating and 2. I need to get my butt back into the gym.
I love cardio but struggle doing anytype of lifting due to joint issues.
We also have a zoo at the house. I love taking care of the reptiles,
amphibians and more. I also love blogging, it is great for my
depression and I look at it as once I am gone my kids
will have my recipes, thoughts and more.
