Healthy Eating Update

Some of you know that I and the family has started Slim Genics. I suggested their plan because they help teach you healthy eating habits, and what and when to eat the right foods.

We have been on the plan since 5/15/13, and hubby has lost 30 lbs already, John has lost 10+, and I have also lost 10+.

One of the biggest adjustments for me has been to eat breakfast before I leave the house, eating fresh veggies, and drinking lots of water. I have told hubby for years that this weight thing is mental and boy am I right. All I can think about is the food that I love and can not eat right now. I am so craving Mexican food, pasta, and pizza. Even the Bushes baked beans commercials are looking good. Yep, mental, did I ever think this much about food? NOPE I did not!

I had to stop and buy a belt so that I can keep my pants up. I know too much info. Tomorrow I stop back in for an weight in and I’ll let you know how many inches I have lost.

Have a great afternoon,

Nancie, Haley d’Pug & Bear

Well school is almost out. John’s last day is tomorrow. He and hubby have been traveling all over Colorado the last few weekends for Jr. High School Rodeo’s. This weekend is the Colorado State Finals, which means that this John’s last rodeo before National Jr. High School Rodeo Finals in June (spring season).

John has been doing a great job, earning checks & points to head to Gallup, NM next month. I am looking forward to a road trip. I am in NEED of a road trip!

I hope you all have a great summer with the kids. I will be posting some great info and ideas for the summer with kids.
