About Me

My photo
New Orleans, Louisiana, United States
🌾 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.

An "Inaugural'' Lunch

Today, there is a new sheriff in town, congrats to our new President :)


My "Inaugural" Lunch"



I'm feeling somewhat better today. My lunch looks real good, doesn't it ??

For breakfast, I had three Jimmy Dean sausages on my low carb breadmachine bread.

For Lunch today ;

2 boiled eggs, pickles, Honey Mustard from Hickory Farms / mayo , four strawberries cut up, drizzled with whipped cream, and a Hershey kissie on top ! Also a handful of peanuts from CVS 75% off Christmas stuff :)

I exercised for one hour and 15 minutes today.

Hiya toots, I came across your comment from Lynn's blog and I just had to pay you a visit. I'm addicted to those Jimmy Dean sausages, especially the hot ones, in fact my husband is making me cook 'em tomorrow. He never tires of it LOL. I am also doing low-carb and I was wondering if I could follow your blog?? Keep up the good work!!
