Drum Roll Please......

After a 30 day detox, I am down 10 pounds and my son is down 19! I have never been able to lose that much weight before on any "diet" and believe me I have tried!! In the past 30 days I have logged 57 miles on my bike. It may not seem like much to some people, but for me it is truly epic and I feel amazing!
My energy is through the roof! I have my friend Erin to thank at http://www.bioshealth.ca/ to thank for helping me to get started! I "met" Erin more that 10 years ago on a firefighter's wives message board. Erin lives in Canada and wrote an awesome book called Miss Diagnosed Unraveling Chronic Stress http://www.bookdepository.com/Miss-Diagnosed-Erin-Bell/9780595356881  Erin is a nutritionist and I truly believe knows everything about food and food allergies/intolerances! She is one of the most genuinely amazing people I have ever met. We have kept in contact over the years without ever having met face to face, something about the bond of the sisterhood! I feel it is only fair that I give her the credit due her for helping me and my son. The Dr will be so surprised when my son goes back on Monday for his recheck...19 pounds is freaking awesome!!
As mothers, career women, wives, and just women in general, we tend to put ourselves last, and that sometimes leads to neglecting our health. We are busy and in all seriousness, the junk food is easy, and it is right there in front of you and let's face it...it is freaking awesome tasting! Five months ago, before I changed m eating habits I was a heart attack waiting to happen. Now my heart is stronger, my head is clearer and I am on my way to wellness, mind, body, and spirit!
Now to the reality...tomorrow is day 31...we are going out for celebratory pizza and I am having a piece of that EFFING RED VELVET CAKE!! Then day 32, right back to the stuff that is good for me!
PEACE <3
