Healthier Me

I recently decided to make some changes in my life that needed to be done. I was stuck in a rut , not working out consistently, not eating right, just doing the bare minimum to hopefully maintain the weight I was at or to not gain more weight. That’s when I decided i no longer wanted to feel/look this way. I decided to switch up my workout routine and try something different. I went to Orange Theory Fitness, the coach; Cyley was so fun, so motivating and the class was challenging and different. I was hooked, I joined the same day. I also decided to use the Transformation App to help get a strength training routine down that I could do at home. I met a very sweet lady named Liv who inspired me and encouraged me to try keto supplements. She walked me thru the process, was very informative, never pushed them on me until  she gave me all the info I needed and was there for my questions. I started off with a 10 day pack. I was so impressed by the flavors of them and then I started to feel and notice the physical changes of taking Ketos and adjusting my diet to a low carb diet. Those of you who know me, know that I use to eat candy, chips and sweets daily! I would focus on calorie intake and not really care where those calories were coming from. So by adjusting my diet to low carb was a huge change for me but honestly now, 4 weeks in to this lifestyle change I don’t crave those sweets anymore, there’s still candy in my house that I don’t even eat, and if I want a piece of candy I limit myself to 1. Same with chips, if my husband is eating them I’ll have 1 or 2 just for the taste but I don’t feel the need to overindulge anymore.  I fuel my body with healthy fats, and proteins. I don’t drink coffee with lots of sweeteners, cream or whip toppings. I get my caffeine thru my morning keto drinks. Taking keto supps have given me energy, made me feel fuller, have helped me to sleep better and overall I just feel better mentally and physically. 
I’m so proud of the changes that I am making in my life. I look forward to continuing this journey and really seeing what my body is capable of doing. I’m so thankful for my OTF coaches that are so amazing and encouraging and as well for Liv who introduced me to Pruvit Ketones.

4th of July

                                          Happy 4th of July!  Today ended up being an impromptu family day and it was so much fun. Since 4th of July ended  up being on a Wednesday we didn’t have anything planned since J had to work yesterday and will work tomorrow as well. So we were just going to hang out at my moms house, but then over a stream of text this morning we ended up making plans to go to Fort Worth and spend the day there with my sister’s family.  We stopped on the way @cousinsbarbecue it was our first time to eat their food and it did NOT disappoint. We ordered chicken, ribs, sausage and chopped brisket, along with fried okra, black eyed peas and slaw. The fried okra and ribs were my absolute favorite but honestly all of it was delicious. When you head to Fort Worth don’t foreget to check out  Cousins Barbecue We spent some time ...

Our Dream Home

October 21, 2015 When Jeremy and I first started dating we would go to neighborhoods and look at houses being built, and just imagine what it would be like to own a house of our own together. It was always one my favorite "dates" with him. we would talk about the specific changes we would make to the house to make it unique and we would pick other houses apart. Being with him and looking at houses always felt right. :)  A year ago around my birthday I remember Jeremy saying he found this community that was building Shaddock homes (which was always one of my favs) so I went and checked out the model home and fell in love. Then when Jeremy showed me the lot he wanted for us, it literally felt perfect.   I didn't think we'd actually be blessed enough to start the process of building a home and ending up with what is truly our Dream House. We both have worked so hard to be able to accomplish this goal that we reached out for and I thank God for blessing us with this beaut...

8 week Results

I’ve officially been taking Ketones for 8 weeks so here’s my update! Since my last measurements done 4 weeks ago I’ve only lost 1.2lbs but my total weight loss since starting ketone has been 5.2lbs! Which is pretty amazing! However I’m not too worried about the weight loss because as you can see I’m loosing inches y’all! In these past 4 weeks I’ve lost a total of 4.6 inches which means in 8 weeks I’ve lost about 8in total. I’m seeing results physically but let’s also talk about the other benefits, I still love the energy the Ketones are giving me, I only take one pack a day in the morning and can fast until about  11am  (Lunch time) , basically fasting for 16 hours. One day I plan to do a 24 hour fast while only taking ketones. I’ll let y’all know how that goes.  Sleeping has been amazing, and what’s crazy is I can remember my dreams now, although some I’d rather forget. My cravings continue to decrease, maybe it’s the fact that now I know how many carbs are ...
