Reinventing Elizabeth: Knock your husband's socks off this Valentine's Da...: Just to warn you, I'm just going to let myself go in this post. Throw all caution to the wind. Why is it a little bit hard for some...

Two weeks later
Consistency! Consistency!
Blogging consistency.... I believe I need a 101 for dummies on this!
So... to continue with the journey - walking didn't go too well with the weather schedule, due to rain and extreme temperatures... then these was nights of cooking that altered eating habits. Still not too bad on any changes. This coming week will be a better week without distractions.
Blog about ALS challenges coming.....

Digital Detox update plus more!!
So, digital detox has it's lows and highs.... so far the FB is working carbs and sugars not so good. I guess running around with my nieces and god-daughters we my lows but, on a few days I am able to be more consistent with the no carbs and sugars.
Something I should of posted months ago but hadn't, didn't etc.... I have been having issues with my liver which steamed from my sickle-cell disease (see my sickle cell disease tab) sooo, after almost 5 months a biopsy was done and now I am on Prednisone (steriods) so guess what?... uumm that means weight gain :( ... Have no fear for the first time in my life I think I am finally going to take the challenge of a healthy eating life style and exercising as a daily routine. I have gone down that road many many times before each time failing, falling, crashing, plateau and burning. I am making a blog and journal commitment to see this through the end.... of .... time! So come along and journey with me....
Day 1 (August 12, 2014)
Breakfast: 6:45-7:00 am
Chia Tea with NO SUGAR - aaahhh pretty good if you ask, I think I can continue this.
2 Hard Boiled eggs
Mid-morning snack 10:30 - 11:00
Snacking on grapes - easy right
Lunch 12:1:30 pm
My smart co-worker (which I love and grateful for) is ordering Papa John's Pizza for the office. (Long story short, it's Papa John's fault's fault they were 40 mins late getting us Pizza for a meeting last week and now we have $124.00 credit to spend)..... I can't be a party pooper but will watch my pizza in-take.
Afternoon snack 3:00 pm
Baby carrots and peanut butter
Dinner 5:30 - 6:30
Still working on it as I write this blog
Exercise - 2 miles of walking briskly
Snack if I must have one ( glass of Almond milk or Mango)

30 -days Digital Detox
Not sure why I did not think of blogging this when I began... but I am going to now.
So I started this 30 - day detox from Facebook, Instant-Gram, Sugars and Carbs... okay so I have not been doing great with the Carbs and sugar. Took the kids to CeCe's Pizza yesterday and also Chic-fil-a bad choices for me. Today I am recovering and starting again....
I also wanted to spend more time reading and less time tubing... well last night I actually turned off the TV (aka tube) and listened to music - I really enjoyed that evening off. I think I can do this.
My new Jam I am feeling:
