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.

A Texan in da 'Big Easy".. !!!

A beautiful young Texas gal appeared in my neck of the woods today... she is everybit as beautiful as she is divine..

Welcome,,,, Pootie to The Big Easy !! http://todayiatea.blogspot.com/

Its a wonderful thang when people drop in , but to have someone from out of state AND a fellow lo carber -- how much more can this suuthern gal handle ??

We sat and spoke, shared stories, and well, she's just one heck of a gal :)

We had Santa Ana winds in our city today (Imagine That), and the sky was just as beautiful as Pootie :))

Cheers to this fellow lo carber. I feel blessed to have met her -- and hope to meet her again.

Breakfast consisted of Eggs and sausage. Lunch was Hillshire Farm Smoked Summer Sausage on wheat bread and my 100 calorie Cheetos Puffs :)

Blessings,

Bayoubabe

You got to hang with Pooti? How cool is that?!

Your description of her sounds right on. Her blog is really fun to read and uber well written.

Glad you had the chance to meet her and that it went even better than planned. :)

Awwww! *mwuah*! What sweet things to say girl! Or should I say "cher"?

We had a great time Harry, even though it was brief and she brought us the most thoughtful packed lunch for the road too! I am gonna post about her and our meeting tomorrow. Unfortunately I got back and had to go to the hospital with Mom yesterday morning and all night. I got home today around 2:30pm where I slammed down a leftover beef rib then fell asleep for about 3-1/2 hours. I'm beat!

I'll talk to you kids soon!!!

Hugs and thanks again so much BayouBabe!!! (Harry she is beautiful as is her son and she looks awesome!!!!) Leslie Sansone and low carbing have worked their magic. She now looks like a younger sister to her former self!

BB - the chicken was soooo awesome. I want the recipe please!!!
