Happy first day of fall. It’s the autumn equinox and I perfect time to reset and begin again. I don’t care how many times I start over, I will keep going until I get it right.

I’m going to try to keep my weight loss journey/struggle here, separate mostly from my writing so it’s easier to manage.

Our fridge broke, I gained 4 lbs but today I’m starting fresh, back to counting calories and trying to eat 80/20.

It’s a lifestyle change and I’m going to do a thirty day challenge starting today.

I have a lot going on plus an upcoming book launch. I’m trying to begin again with this lifestyle and try to not let life get in the way of my style of living!!

Happy Fall Y’all

My weight stayed the same this week. 191 lbs.

My next short term goal is to be in the 180’s.

I count and track daily and my daily calories is 1,557.

It’s not always easy and I’m not always prepared or stocked with the perfect foods, so I work with what I have in hand. I bite it, I write it.

I’m a big believer in whatever you are doing, write it down.

Working on my other goals too, and working through what feels like a slight injury so my fitness journey is slower right now.

After this month we have 4 months of the year. I’m making my goals happen, and saving some intentions for a brand new 2027.

Happy Saturday to all!!

Things I learned from Hallmark Movies Christmas in July
1. I don’t decorate nearly enough at Christmas time and that’s changing this year. I’m all in.
2. White lights with red decorations equals magic.
3. Everybody needs to feel part of a community. Get involved, a lot.
5. Giving back and making a difference begins well before the holidays, but really feels fulfilling when the season arrives.
4. Antiques, old things and cast offs are not trash, but treasures.
5. It’s important to embrace the seasons, the moments, the little things.
6. A cup of coffee or cocoa is always better with a cookie or a muffin( vegan for me) Bonus points for a great coffee shop, book store or a colorful new mug with a positive mantra.
7. Animals, kids and the elderly raise the happiness meter.
8. You can’t embrace the season without a fashionable coat, hat, scarf and sweater. Looking the part is part of the holiday fun.
9. Never lose your sense of romance, your inner child or your optimism.
10. Friends are family and family can be friends. We are all connected. It’s important to stay connected through distances and spend time with those who are local. Pick up the phone, get on a plane, send a letter and meet up with those you care about. New friends, old friends, and family give life meaning and purpose.

I don’t feel deprived counting calories, my lifestyle is 80/20. I track my food on the and it’s been a wonderful beginning on this weight loss journey.

I can’t believe I’m turning 60 in December. I’m going to be the best version of myself no matter what life throws at me. Losing weight slowly is making me feel wonderful.
