My husband fixed my phone camera yesterday, so I will have pictures of foods next week! I am so excited! However, I did not get pictures of foods I ate last week. I am loving eating a plant powered diet. My garden is giving me beautiful berries and lettuce. The farmer's bounty basket is giving… Continue reading Plant Power

This is Not a Diet
Sadly, there is still no camera to record my eating and to keep me in check. On the up side, I have succeeded in continuing to eat a plant based diet. I did have one exception this past week when I went to dinner with my good friend. I ate Eggplant Parmesan. It was the… Continue reading This is Not a Diet
My End of Dieting
So... my fall last week broke the camera on my phone. I am now left with nothing to visually record my success and meals, at least for further notice. I can say that I have been good about eating salads for lunch and something veggie like for dinner. It was a busy week, so I… Continue reading My End of Dieting
More of the Same
I've been doing well with my walking... except yesterday when I was walking home from church and bit the dust for real. Anyway, I've succeeded in a 45 minute walk 6 days last week and I must be speeding up my waddle because my fitbit says I now walk 1.86 miles in those 45 minutes. … Continue reading More of the Same

Week 3 of Intermittent Fasting and nearly 60 weeks of Nutritiarian Living
It was a good week for nutrition. I still haven't completely given up salad dressing. Maybe I will give that a shot this week. Who knows. I guess it all depends on my mood. (Cheesy grin).

Continuing My Quest For Better Health
I am really getting into this intermittent fasting thing. I am not seeing physical changes, but I am feeling better and I am sleeping much better! I read two books on fasting for better health.

58 weeks and counting!
Week 2 of intermittent fasting using the 16:8 eating style. Interestingly, I have plenty of energy. I think I actually feel better without a constant surge insulin coursing through my body with snacking and small meals throughout the day. There is something to this... for my body at least. The scale? That is still a… Continue reading 58 weeks and counting!
