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.

I finally did it ! Feeling GROOVY !!



Greetings from the Big Easy today. The low down is this :


I was FINALLY able to get my carbs down to below 40 carbs.. wheee. ! TOday's meal consisted of a total of 34 carbs :)

I could NOT decide if I wanted breakfast or lunch so I had a wee bit of BOTH ! LOL.



I had two scrambled eggs, four Jimmy Dean sausages, some leftover ground beef with taco seasoning in it, with lettuce and tomato. Also had three slices of white/wheat (25 carbs) for a total of 34 carbs :) ( for a late night snack I had 1/4 cup of peanuts )

I am SO proud ! Atta girl (patting myself on the back). And the kicker is that I did NOT feel hungry after that big meal. I'm going to have to revisit this. EaT more low carb food , instead of that high in carbs (fruit). I'm so excited !

I rode my bicycle around town for 40 minutes today. I also popped a Leslie Sansone Firm and Tone video in the dvd player (40 minutes). For the night cap, I went to ANytime Fitness for a Body Pump class (weight lifting).

So that's why I'm typing this late night :)

I have to teach in the morning, Soo everyone have a Blessed One :)
