Carbless Happiness

Here we are all five of us are sick and just getting snowed in. I have acrock pot full of bad carb chicken noodle soup. And hopefully after the soupwe will get to go to bed early and feel better. I am sort of glad it happensto be a day that we all get to do nothing (besides Matt who works all dayfrom home on Fridays). I just feel bad that we all have this nasty cough andcold...and what I was promised was just allergies, just yesterday.

Here is hoping that the thought "March = In like a lion, out like a lamb" istrue. I need to have the peace and beauty of April and true Spring.

I love this site SugarFreeSheila.com. Ok, so I have been searching since starting this blog of some other great sites and blogs. This site by Sheila Pike-Pereyra is quite amazing. I love its simplicity and the depth of information. It is a virtual library for anything Atkins or Low Carb. She is a beautiful woman who made changes in her life, and she shines because of it. She has a passion about helping people realize that changes can be made in a sweet and non-judging way. It has and continues to inspire me to continue on my journey to Better Health.

Please check it out, you won't be disappointed. Unless, you don't like blond, babe-a-licious women. HA!HA!! It has great pictures, articles, personal stories and helpful ideas to help make the lifestyle change that will give you part of your life back.

I JUST PLAIN LOVE IT. ENJOY!!

I don’t think I am consistently aware how important Good Health is. I mean, I see my little ones run around all day and wonder if that was possible that I ever had that much energy. And when I am living a VERY healthy lifestyle I know that I can achieve high energy, but when I cheat or my life gets in the way (Ie, like right now, sitting at the hospital with my mother law, with nothing fresh to eat. But the positive is an abundance of ice chips and water).

After I was jolted into remembering how important it is to have health (and age) on my side, I am sorrowful and embarrassed by the silly stuff I eat and drink just to get a food high, when all along I could be doing healthy things for my body. I know my exercising, about five times a week, helps a lot, it is better then being sedentary (if you can call a mom of 3 under 8 lazy). But, I am realizing that I have much to do starting today to get into better health. I am blessed to have this reminder.
