Clean Eating

So I have started to invest in my health more so than ever. I really want to be an overall healthy person. I want to loose weight but do it a healthy natural way. I had been a huge WW fan until I realized how much they promote processed foods. I know you can do their plan anyway you choose but I just felt this time around that wouldn't be the route for me. I started seeing a Nutrionalist who has been my doctor in the past for all the crazy intestional/digestive issues I have had and am now doing a raw/healthy lifestyle. I mainly eat vegetables, fruits, lean proteins, nuts/seeds, oils, and legumes. It really hasn't been as hard as I thought. I miss the snacking on something crunchy other than veggies and of course my dairy but I will only be missing the dairy until I get a large portion of the weight off then will slowly introduce it back into my lifestyle. I have felt so much better and am really encouraged. I am not only trying to regain health by loosing weight but I am feeding my body with what it needs and what will help my internal body regain health. I am on week three and have done one weigh in so far a week ago and lost 9 pounds, it was a great start. Really excited to see how this whole things turns out

Somebody help me decorate my house!!!

So I have always wanted a cool, trendy, modern, with maybe a hint of vintage in my house. God so did not gift me with style so I am looking to others for their creativity and hopefully one day will be able to have a house that I love.

So here are some few things I have run across that I want to use as my inspiration.






I love the pop of color that these chairs bring. It takes an ordinary brown table from dull and nothing exciting to WOW!!



So this chair has my name written all over it, now just to find one somewhere and hope I can afford it then convince my hubby that it would be a perfect addition to our home






Love these too, I think I can pull this off with some things I already have.

I Sought Love

Found this the other day...(don't know when I wrote this)

I first sought love to fill a void
A void that penetrated deep within my heart
A heart broken from unhappiness

I sought love to experience compassion- to gain serenity
And peace of mind

I sought love to rid my soul of loneliness
Loneliness that darkened clouds and dampened spirits

I sought love to experience a mystical existence- to enjoy the bliss of ecstacy and be overwhelmed in delight

I found love from the first sweet taste of your lips on mine
I found love in the happiness you brought and in the experience of your very being
I found love when you took me away in those passionate moments and let me get a glimpse of heaven
I found love that brightened my once darkened skies, a love that makes me higher than any mountains peak
I found love in a man whom I adore
I found love when I found you

I am the "Sick Girl"

I have recently noticed that everytime I see someone the first thing they ask me is "how are you feeling" Though I really do appreciate the care and concern I am really not liking being the sick girl. I have spent the last 5 years dealing with crazy health issues. I hate that I get sick, I hate that I have been sick and I hate that while in the process of healing I will continue to be sick.

I have found a wonderful Doctor, she is like a whole new world to me. I call her my voodoo Doctor. I never really thought to go the natural route but I truly am a believer in holistic healing. Life has been much better since meeting the voodoo doctor. I went from being so sick, not being able to eat anything, my body storing everything I ate because it was in constant starvation mode, being deathly ill because of toxins and parasites that were running rampid inside of me. Though the first couple of times meeting with this doctor I was horrified to find out what was wrong we have made tremendous progress. I can eat, and now I choose to eat a raw clean healthy diet. Everything I put in my body is fresh, I try and avoid processed foods all together and I am feeling great. The problem is I am still "sick" girl.

I will always have migraines, there is no cure, there is only constant modification, trial and error. I wish I could find relief but I am so grateful with how far I have come. I will continue the path to less frequent occurences as well as I can.

But sometimes I just want to scream really I am getting healthy...I feel so much better than I ever have and I am a work in progress. Though I hit rough spots with my migraines and catch a cold or two I am on the mend and for that I am grateful....Now if I can just loose the title of "SICK GIRL"

God's greatest gifts come in unique packages

It's nice to be reminded how wonderful life is. Everytime I get the chance to visit with my nephews, my heart is filled with overwhelming happiness. I have yet to experience what it feels like to be a parent, but I can say being an AUNTIE is one of life's greatest gifts. I am truly blessed to be the Aunt to some amazing little people. It makes me wonder how great God must feel when he looks down at all his sons and daughters. I have the priveledge to watch these little miracles grow and I consider myself super lucky to have these wonderful boys in my life.
