There's a reason for that. I hadn't mentioned it because you can't talk bit how something is going when, quite truthfully, it hasn't been going much of anywhere.
You see, as far as the whole healthy living thing- I was failing pretty miserably at it. I was still eating a lot of junk. Not exercising. And my weight had actually gone up a few pounds rather than heading in that downward direction I had intended.

And I was embarrassed to pull that reality out into the open where not only could everyone else see it; but I would be forced to look at for what it really was.
However, I am pleased to report that things are beginning to turn around.
Over the past three weeks, thanks to plenty of encouragement and gentle prodding from the Man of the House, I have totally revamped how I eat. No wheat/gluten, no dairy, and no processed sugars. Less meat. More fruits and veggies.

I haven't been exercising as much as I should. But after a weekend walking the historic streets of Charleston and going to the park for a walk yesterday evening with the Man of the House - I believe there are improvements being made in that area also.
I'm feeling good. The eczema on my elbows and ankle has pretty much disappeared! I have had minimal to no pain from my fibroids this month! I have already lost 8 to 9 pounds (depending on what time of day I step on the scale). And I am actually looking forward to going back to the doctor for the follow up on my cholesterol!
So, that's the reality of where things currently stand with my health.
What are some of your best tips for healthier living?
