About Me

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.

Monday Monday... so good to me :)











Monday Monday, so good to me,
Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be

I having a marvelous Monday here !

Its been beautiful weather lately. I had the chance over the weekend to go visit our property we purchased not long ago. Its a nice two acre spread, completely cleared. I learned a lesson though.. ALWAYS bring along one of those regular self-proppeled lawn mowers, lol..

Can you believe we got the Gravely (its like a Toro Lawn "Machine") as I call it, one of those 360 degree models like they have that hurry up and mow the lawns of football fields). Anywho we got the Gravely, STUCK twice. It must have rained on our property, and even with the beautiful dry weather we've been having this March in Louisiana, the North Shore of Lake Pontchartrain musta got a deluge last Friday.

Everything is in blossom, and today I feel like I'm in Blossom ! LOL. I had a really good workout the two-hour kind with both cardio and weight machines. The pool at the club is scrubbed and painted.. only waiting for warmer weather before they fill it ! I cannot wait !

I weighed in today. I was 132 pounds, down yet another pound ! :) Yeah for meeeeee :)

I'm not trying to loose anymore weight, but lest face it, if it happens, so be it.
So now I'm down 32 pounds from the original 164. How do ya like Those Numbers ???

I'm eating good. Yesterday I pigged out, and ate at Mc Donald's. I had a double cheeseburger and YES I ate the bun. Its all about the bun, when you are carbing out.

I hope everyone else is doing well in their weight loss. :)

Today, I have not eaten yet. I just got back from a good dental cleaning, and my mouth still hurts.. but I do have some chicken salad prepared, which I will eat on wheat bread.

Have a Blessed Day , everyone :) ENJOY !
