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.

We had at least 5 inches of rain in the metro area late into the evening, it knocked me offline here.

Today for lunch I had the turkey, ham & cheese on wheat. Also had a Popsicle. I'm experimenting with the different flavors of my Hickory Farms cheeses I got at Christmas time.
So far, I've tried the Gouda and the sharp cheddar.. Yummy !

For supper, I had mesquite chicken breast chopped into a lettuce tomato and cubed cheese salad. It was delish :) I topped it off with Kraft dressing.


Weather mostly sucks, more rain is expected today. On the upside, the kids go back to school tomorrow (Do I hear an AMEN in the room ?) Two weeks with the kids home is enough to drive anyone crazy.
