After inserting foot in mouth yesterday about the amount of carbs in a Mc Donald's sausage patti, I am quite relieved to find out it was just 1 or 2 carbs.
Onto BETTER things. The weather has been clear and crisp, but COLD.. I must admit that My exercise has slowed down a bit, but I will be better at it today ! I'm generally an 'outside person'.. love to walk, to explore nature, etc. Gimme butterflies and blue skies ANYTIME.. (sounds like the name for a new song title -- huh ?) LOL.
For lunch today, I had a nice salad consisting of crispy lettuce, tomatoes, pepper jack & mozzarella cheese, pepperoni slices, and yes, a cut up hot dog !! On top was drizzled Kraft Zesty Italian Marinade and Salad Dressing.
I hit the local CVS for their Sunday sale, The Energizer batteries (with coupons) were the "hot item' of the day.
Today I exercised by walking 3 miles to a Leslie Sansone DVD, and rode my bicycle with my son one mile around our town.
For dinner, I had 1/2 cup mixed veggies, pepperoni slices, turkey breast, ham and a diet coke. Might even splurge on a sugar free popsicle later :)
About Me

- 🌾 Welcome to My Low‑Carb Life As of January 2026, I’ve started a new chapter: I recently began the GLP‑1 Wegovy pill to help me get back on track with my weight‑loss goals. Life has thrown its share of challenges my way, and I’ve gained back some of the weight I once worked so hard to lose — so this is my reset moment. My journey began in 2008, when my doctor warned me about rising blood pressure and challenged me to lose ten pounds in three months. I ended up losing 26. By 2011, life had shifted again, and I recommitted to the low‑carb lifestyle that helped me feel strong and steady. And today, I’m still committed — just with new tools, new wisdom, and a whole lot more grace for myself. I live just outside New Orleans, deep in sweet Cajun Country, where we hunt, fish, “make groceries,” and enjoy the simple things. I exercise three times a week and practice relaxing on the off days. My immediate goal is to lose 15 pounds, and I’m focused on moving forward with intention and consistency. So pull up a chair and stay a spell — this blog follows my low‑carb journey, my Southern roots, and now, my Wegovy pill adventure.

Hi bayoubabe! Thanks for stopping by my house. You had a good day today. And congrats on the 15 pounds!! Thanks for reminding me about the water. I drank a boatload yesterday but slacked today. I can really tell a difference when I drink it. Have a great week now, ya hear!
That's a brilliant menu! Keep up the excellent work!!
I love Leslie Sansone too ;)
