Finally! And a Meal Plan

 WOOHOO!  I finally got lower than those 3.5 pounds I've been gaining and losing since May!  I was down 1.4 when I weighed this week.  7 pounds to go and I'll have a new first number :)

With that being said, it seems like my journey with keto is doing pretty good LOL  My goal is to eat between 20-50 net carbs a day.  I've been hitting between 30-35 most days. And my sugar numbers are running in the 1-teens range.  I'm feeling pretty good.


This week's menu has a couple things I've been craving.  I am super excited for tonight's meal.  It's one of the cravings LOL

Monday - muffalettas.  I saw Cajun Keto Chef on Facebook make a keto friendly one in a wrap and that is what I'm doing.  Hubs will eat his on bread.  I've got some Flat Out Bread so mine should come to about 7 carbs.
Tuesday - jalepeno popper chicken casserole with broccoli as a side.  This is another craving.
Wednesday - Italian sausage stuffed portobellas
Thursday - Philly cheesesteak skillet with a salad
Friday - sauerkraut and sausage 

We'll head home on Saturday morning and I've got chicken strips and eggplant fries planned for that night.  Eliza, the best doggo in the world, and I will be staying home for a while.  She went to doggie daycare for the first time last week and needs to go some more since she will be staying with them while we go on vacation in September.  Emery will be super excited for me and Doggie to be home for a while.
Until next time...

Hello October!

Hello friends! It's been a while since I've been on here. I've read a bunch of books, eaten some yummy foods, sewn a lot of quilt blocks and stitched a lot of stitches. I've also had a wonderful vacation to Disney with the WHOLE family! Let me just tell you, it was HOT there. Yes, I know it's Florida and it's supposed to be hot.  But ya'll.  I'm originally from south Louisiana,  I get heat and humidity, but this was overwhelming lol the heat indexes were upper 90s and hit 101. In mid-September. But we still had a marvelous time. We rode all the rides we were aiming for and ate most of the snacks we planned for. And we got in two of our traditions-Boston Lobster Fest and mini-golf!  I totally went off any eating plan while there.  Mind you, I am not really on an eating plan right now, but I didn't overthink food.  If I wanted the fish and chips from the England pub at EPCOT, I ate...

Crafty Round Up for mid-October

 Hi friends!!  I figured I needed to come share my sewing/stitching/quilting updates with you because it's been a while.  So, let's get started... First up is quilty goodness.  And it comes with a story.  Christmas 2021 I bought myself a block of the month subscription from Fig Tree Fabrics for her Manchester by the Sea Mystery BOM program.  If you are not familiar with Joanna and Fig Tree Fabrics, go check her out.  Her stuff is GORGEOUS!!!  I've bought her fabric forever for clothes for the girls.  Joanna does the block of the month programs and sends out fabric and patterns each month and you end up with a beautiful sampler quilt.  Manchester by the Sea was scheduled for April 2022 thru March 2023.  I got a beautiful envelope of fabric and instructions to make blocks each of those months and did not touch a one of them until we came back from Disney last month.  I'm a member of her BOM group on Facebook and have seen the fin...

Long Time No See

  Hi there!  It's been a hot minute since I've visited with you.  Let me catch you up on what's been going on. I think the last time I was here was back in October.  That would totally make sense because I got a new full time job at the end of October that had me working 50 hours a week.  With all that work going on I had little time for anything else.  Good news (or bad, depending on your point of view) is that the job is over and I am back to being a stay at home wife again.  There will be plenty of time to catch up on cross stitch and quilting.  My needles will be happy since my poor sewing machine has not been touched since November!   Once again, I am back to tracking food.  I gained back 10 pounds while working.  My body hurts again and I don't want to ache.  So, I am taking it day by day.  Positive thinking. Good food choices.  I got this. The holidays came and went.  All the girls are doing good....
