Although, it all depends on HOW motivated I am, liiiiiiike I ACTUALLY stuck to low carb on my birthday...buuuuuuuut idk if ill ACTUALLY do that for Thanksgiving annnnnnnnnd CHRISTMAS!!! I mean really HOW can we celebrate the birth of Jesus without carbs??? EVEN HE ATE BREAD!!!!

.

And my brother wants me to do keto with him and I just wanna do low carb-high protien lifestyle----buuuut i've been eating to much sugar soooooo I gotta cut that out again----I'm just NOT sure about the whole HIGH FAT thing, I'm liiiiiike what about HIGH protien with fat and veggies---I'm not like drinking oil or anything crazy...bahahahaaa...buuuuuuuut I said I'll TRY IT for two weeks and if I'm NOT down a TON of weight I'm eating an apple!!!! Buuuuuut just so  you know I'm NOT EATING PORK RINDS!!!! That's soooooooo DISGUSTING!!!! He's like they actually don't taste bad!!! I'm like I don't care HOW they taste...I can't eat pigs skin....I just can't!!! Annnnnd my brother is trying to convince me that the fat on like steak and stuff is SOOOOOOOOOO good!!! I'm like NO ITS SICK!!! I don't like the way it feels in my mouth and I'm NOT eating it!!! My fat of choice is BUTTER...thank you very much!!! 

.

 Also, I had read these reviews about some keto premade foods, like these keto cups that are suposed to be chocolate candy...OMW those things are literally disgusting...DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! and then this like this soup broth that the lady said was sooooooooo amazzzzzing...duuuuuuude it was also sooooo GROSS!!! Buuuuuuut not as nasty as the keto cups...I was literally gagging for those!!!! My brother was like, don't buy premade keto food, your a good cook, just cook  your own stuff!!! I was like TRUE!!! I mean, unless it's a twinkie, premade food is usually pretty gross anyways weather it's keto or not- frozen and packaged meals are all the same!!!!

....soooooo Soooooooo basically I'm just doing the diet that works for me, buuuuuut without any apples or fruit!!🙄 I started today...I'll let you guys know how it's going next Friday!!!!

Anyone besides me gonna 

ACTUALLY admit to this???

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!! This is literally SOOOOOOO ACCUTATE!! Yesterday, Pastor was like, for everyone in the church that has been stating that they have weight loss goals for this new year, I'm going to help you all out by doing a 3 day fast!!! AHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! We're like, Oh YAAAAAAYYY!!! BAHAHAAA!!!

.

Then me and one of the brother's were talking after church and he was like, I actually had to STOP doing the Daniel Fast because after 10 days on it I was gaining weight. I was OMW!!! So I'm NOT THE ONLY ONE that has GAINED WEIGHT on the Daniel Fast?!?!?! 😂

.

I'm like, I feel sooooooo much better knowing this!!! He's like, yeah, I guess three baked potatoes in one day is STILL too much!!! I'm like, YEAH, weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllll, I found out that ONE JAR of raw-unsweetened almond butter in one day, is ALSO TOO MUCH!!!!!😂😇😂

Mary Reccomends!!!

You guys have GOT to try this Pink Grapefruit popcorn put out by Lesser Evil snacks I discovered at WHOLE FOODS!!!!! It's soooooooooooo gooooooood!!!! LIIIIIIIIIIIIKE, really!!!!

 

This popcorn is slightly sweet, kinda tangy and a tad bit salty 

and 100000000 percent DELICIOUS!!!

Did I mention beautiful too??? Look at those pink flecks on it!!!!

The good news is that this popcorn is also low in calories, about 110 calories a serving!!!! And three cups in ONE SERVING!!! Annnnnnnnd five servings in one bag-That's AWESOME!!!

That's worth kissing over-yes, I kiss food!!!

 Sooooooooo should you "ACCIDENTALLY" eat the whole bag, it's ONLY 550 calories!!! I mean, I know NONE of us would actually eat the whole bag, buuuuuuuut, you jus sayin-IN CASE, cuz ya know, accidents happen!!!! BAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!

Getting older...it's all good!!!

Sometimes, when I hear my friends and peers complaining about getting older...I just can't fully relate...I don't feel older and I don't mind saying that I'm almost 40!!! (ok, in 4.5 years buuuut I'm closer to 40 now than 30;) 

.

Buuuuuuuuuuuut when I friend recently sent me a comparison photo, I realized WHY perhaps I don't mind getting older...

Check this out!!!! 

I don't particularly relate, looking good and feeling good and good health, TO MY AGE!!! I feel better older, than I did younger!!! It's been a looooooong journey, and I'm not completed yet, buuuuuuuuuuut thank God for his help in getting me where I am today!!! God's given me A LOT of tools that I've had to choose to use and work with to get here, buuuuuuuut ultimately, I couldn't have done it without God's help!!! 

.

I meant to say this on Thanksgiving but ran out of time to post about it, but I really am SOOOOOOOOOOOO THANKFUL for my health! To be able to freely do active things and enjoy life to the fullest is such an amazing gift!!! Thank you Lord!!!

The Color Run 2019

This past Saturday, November 9th, I FINALLY got to do the ONE RUN I've been dying to do..

.

THE COLOR RUN!!!!

So every half a mile you run through another color zone and get color chalk all over your clothes...it's sooooooooo AWESOME!!!! The Color Run always suggests wearing white, buuuuuuuut it looks a lot cooler on all BLACK!!!!

The theme of the color run is that it's the HAPPIEST 5k on the planet, soooooo they don't time you!!! They let you out in waves of a few 100 at a time, by the time I had almost crossed the finish line, the last wave was going out!!! So I'm not really sure what my time was cuz I accidentally turned off the fitbit walk thingy...but the best I can figure it was about 50ish minutes!!!
