I'm going to be 42 this year! How did that even happen?! I was scared into getting healthy 4 years ago now and while I do waffle a bit from time to time my healthy lifestyle is the rule not the exception. ~2016-ish~ I had a lot of early warning signs that my health was at serious risk and I needed to stop taking my body for granted.

I'm going to be 42 this year! How did that even happen?! I was scared into getting healthy 4 years ago now and while I do waffle a bit from time to time my healthy lifestyle is the rule not the exception. ~2016-ish~ I had a lot of early warning signs that my health was at serious risk and I needed to stop taking my body for granted. A 15 lb weight gain in less than a year, with a lot of scary inflammation and water retention lead to me experimenting with cutting out flour (the anti-gluten bandwagon!) which didn't help BUT cutting out unhealthy processed foods and added sugar has solved nearly everything. Tracking my carb-fat-protein percentages and being able to see which nutrients I was missing has changed my day to day eating habits for the better. I feel like I have the key to healthy living now. I can do this:)

    Thank you for your comment on my blog. Yes, I am about 30 years older than you and I can tell you, it's a battle to stay healthy. But life is worth it. I hope that you will find out what works for you. There is a book out by Dr. Amy Meyers for Autoimmune Disease, and she also wrote The Thyroid Connection. You might want to check those out. She herself has an autoimmune disease, (inflammation), and done much research and has made life changes regarding eating habits, testing, and various nutrients, and such. She is also on face book and I am in the OLP, oral lichen planus group. I was diagnosed back in 2013 by an oral surgeon through way of biopsy. So I pay very close attention to what I can and cannot eat. Anyway, check out her books and see if you might be helped by joining a group on face book. Blessings to you.

    Looking to stay focused through the upcoming Holiday Season? Want to get connected with a Team to support you through your Journey to a Healthier Lifestyle? If yes, then consider joining the BL Challenge that starts early December. Each week 11 teams of 24 Active, do fun nutritional and fitness challenges. The challenges promote a healthy lifestyle and If for some reason you cannot do a challenge then they are modified to meet your needs. Often we do the challenge in a game form, we have BINGO and TIC TAC TOE or seasonally themed. For the Fall we had Cardio Hoedown, World Series and Sleepathon. I hope that you decide this might be for you you can leave your name on the waitlist for the Winter challenge. To get to the Challenge go to my page and click on the “BLUE BIGGEST LOSER” Icon, or copy and paste the link below, or let me know and I can send you an invite. Join the Team then sign up on the waitlist. It’s the thread right below the Chit Chat.

    There is definitely hope. We barely ever actually fight with each other, we talk things out more often than not. It's just a bad time in general, but what relationship doesn't have its uos and downs?
