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.

It's Officially Springtime !!



Spring has Sprung !! But don't tell that to anyone in the Big Easy who experienced hours of rainfall last night followed by a cold front. There is actually snow flurries reported in Alexandria, Louisiana today !!

It's been quite a busy weekend. We had a birthday party for our son. Try dieting with five 11 year olds wanting pizza, cookie cake, chips, hot dogs and dip !!

Today, I went to the gym and worked out for almost two hours, all cardio. Treadmill, exercise bike and elleptical machine.

My weight loss is down a whopping 1 1/2 pounds. (Better than nothing right ?).. this grand total took all of three weeks to achieve. I just wish it would come off QUICKER, but then again, isn't that every low carber's dreams ??

To avoid all the birthday goodies being eaten around me, I opted for a chicken salad sanwich on whole wheat. (Remember, absolutely NO DOUBLE FIBER bread for this gal !)

This week proves to be a busy one. Our son made the local baseball team, so there will be practices, a scrimmage on Wednesday, etc.

My 30th high school reunion is this Saturday, I need something to wear !! Should I dress for summer or winter Ha.. need to purchase a new dress too !

So Spring has Sprung in New Orleans, At least the scale has not....
