Welcome to my castle

My life has gone from being the "Duchess of Don't Try" to a "Princes of Preparing-to-Change", and I am as of now and happily ever after being coronated as "Empress of (Healthy) Eating and Exercise". This cycle has been my life for a as long as I can remember (and I know that managing healthy eating and weight loss can be a royal pain), so I'm hoping that by my own decree I can make healthy changes, one at a time, stick for the rest of my life. My "crowning" glory so to speak.

My life has gone from being the "Duchess of Don't Try" to a "Princes of Preparing-to-Change", and I am as of now and happily ever after being coronated as "Empress of (Healthy) Eating and Exercise". This cycle has been my life for a as long as I can remember (and I know that managing healthy eating and weight loss can be a royal pain), so I'm hoping that by my own decree I can make healthy changes, one at a time, stick for the rest of my life. My "crowning" glory so to speak.

I have three grown children, one husband (that's always enough), two grand daughters, and a very hectic job that keeps me stressed out and eating on the fly. This page is where I will come for my daily "mini vacations." Here is where I will visit with myself. This will be my tranquil castle, where I come to give ME some royal treatment (and when needed, a royal pep talk). My mind's castle is here to escape from the REAL world pressures, if only for a few moments, and give myself what I need to survive another overthrown royal plan.

Here is where I find the power to rule my life. Here is where I decree my unhealthy habits to be banned from the kingdom (I mean queendom) forever more.

Thank you for your comments on my Motivation blog today. I'm usually a pretty positive person but for some reason I've had "one of those weeks" and needed to vent a little. I have to stick with SparkPeople though, all of my friends are here emoticon

Thanks for reading and commenting on my "Virginia City Speeder Trip" blog. I'm glad you enjoyed it emoticon

It's really nice being able to include our dogs in the things we do, that's a big reason we choose to travel in a motor home instead of towing our speeder on a trailer and staying in motels. My husband has type 1 diabetes also and it's much better for him to be able to eat what I cook in the motor home instead of having to eat in restaurants all the time. Your little dogs are really cute, I'm sure you enjoy them as much as we enjoy ours.
