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.

How to Lose Weight While Eating More Food..





Happy Memorial Day !

Webmd.com has a good article about How to Lose Weight While Eating More Food.
How to Lose Weight While Eating More Food..



To drop pounds, ceasing to eat is not the answer.

Eating less of the bad stuff while focusing on the
good foods is the right (and smart) approach to take.



I'm still hanging in there at about 132 pounds or so. It will be June 7th will be 8 months since I started my low carb diet. My hair is growing in as much as I'm loosing it now, so at least its catching up. I must say the BIOTIN and multi vitamins are working, but boy do they make me hungry !

I'm still exercising regularly, and have even taken up swimming. (great cardio exercise)

Its raining here this week, so I'll probably be indoors, doing what I do best.. low carb cooking !

Yall have a blessed day !

Natural Remedies for Female and Male Hair Loss

Natural Remedies for Female and Male Hair Loss

Harry, thank you for this timely article !

As yall know I am recently experiencing hair loss, so this article really applies.

If yall ARE doing low carb, it is very important as Harry states, to loose the weight ‘gradually’. Not only can other physical problems result (i.e. hair loss), but also you tend to loose your muscle tone as well, and the excess skin will start to sag.

I was not aware that there were SO many different regimens for dealing with hair loss. Especially interesting was the ‘flaxseed’.

Thanks again. I learned a LOT.

Have a Blessed Day !

Love Nest !!

These are pictures I took today using my cell phone. We are making an evacuation shelter, (shed), cabin, whatever you wish to call it.. Purchased two acres of land last year just outside of Franklinton, La.

The contractors say it should be ready in about three weeks. Enjoy !
