A Case of the Hungries

Today was my day off, and boy did I have a major case of the hungries! I was freaking starving most of the day. But I managed to stick to the plan. I didn't exercise like I wanted to today, but I will get back on track with the exercising on Wednesday and keep up with it. I am trying to sell my tablet, so I can get the cell version, so trying not to deck it out like crazy but boy am I tempted too. Oh well, I can just deck out the new one. I was reminded of an app I used to love using earlier today it's called "Lose It" it's really good it keeps track of what you eat and you can have weight loss goals etc. You can pay for more features, but I just have the basic. I really like it cause you can chose what nutrients it tracks such as carbohydrates etc. If you are interested you can find it here: https://www.loseit.com/ I have to get back on track with the exercise, I only exercised 1x last week. So that is my goal this week is to exercise Wednesday, Friday and Saturday without fail and without excuses.

I remembered I can have a 'miscellaneous' item on 2 of my meals, so I have chosen to have Sugar Free Jello, you get 1/2 a cup for 'free' on the Lean for Life plan and boy was it delicious. I haven't weighed in a few days due to it being TOM, I plan on weighing in tomorrow (sort of scared to) but hopefully a protein day or two will kick me back into weight loss mode.

Here is my menu today:

Breakfast:
1 egg, 1/2 mushroom, 1 T Sharp Cheddar, 1 T HWC, 1 lunch meat ham

Snack
8 pieces pepperoni, 1 string cheese, 1 strawberry nonfat greek yogurt

Lunch:
2 cup lettuce, 1/4 tomato, 1 T olives, 1 T Sharp Cheddar, 1 t onions, 3 & 1/2 oz taco meat, 1/4 cup refried beans, 1/2 cup strawberry sugar free jello

Snack:
8 pieces pepperoni, 1 string cheese

Dinner:
2 cup lettuce, 1/4 tomato, 1 T olives, 1 T Sharp Cheddar, 1 t onions, 3 & 1/2 oz Pork Ribs, 1 gala apple, 1/2 cup jello, 1 cup green beans

According to Lose It! I have eaten, 68.4g carbs, with 10.8g fiber that means I had 57.6 total net carbs.

Saturday 9: Good Morning, Heartache

Trying another new thing called Saturday 9, it can be found here: http://samanthasaturday9.blogspot.com 1) Do you come up with your brightest ideas early in the morning or late at night?

Depends on the day :-), but usually at night 3) Do you shower in the morning, after work or before bed? I shower in the mornings, it helps wake me up 4) Billie Holiday was just 44 when she died.

🌿 CBD and Hormones: What Every Woman Should Know

Posted in The Wellness Den | June 14, 2025 Let’s be real: being a woman comes with a lot of hormonal ups and downs. Mood swings. Fatigue. Bloating. Brain fog. Anxiety. Sleep issues. And don’t even get me started on the perimenopause rollercoaster. Whether you’re in your 20s or late 40s (like me!), hormones influence everything —your energy, mood, digestion, skin, cycle, and emotional balance. But here’s something most women don’t hear enough: CBD can help. Not as a magic pill or miracle cure—but as a powerful tool that supports your body’s natural rhythms and helps bring balance when everything feels off. 💛 What Happens When Hormones Are Out of Whack?
