Weight loss Journey.... At a stand stil

When My OFM  asked me to marry him back in Aug. I knew I wanted to look great on my wedding day.  Well that means I need to drop a ton of weight. With both my kids, I had gain a ton of Weight.

Finally one night i got so sick and tired of my body hurting from just cleaning the house and picking up the baby. So I  started walking. I was doing good 3 days a week almost 2 mile each time while my son did his football practice. Then the OFM  suggest we do the P90x. So i started out strong with it and was doing good  and was starting to feel good. Then for some reason I stopped!!

I started this at 201 lbs the heaviest I have ever been. I am now down to 193 and proud of my self. I need to keep going. I still have a long road and the wedding is next year. I need to rediscover  my motivation and get back on my work outs. I just wish i can figure what went wrong. I guess at this point I should go back to tracking my food and work outs to help get back and stay on track.

I guess once I am done here I will go add once again a program on my phone to track my progress and look for new motivation phrase to write on my mirror to help keep going.  Not only do I have a wedding to look great at and 2 little rug rats to chase and not be so wiped out at the end of the day.  I understand I may never get back to my Army weight but I want to be back in the Healthy and Fit range.

Oil Field Life

    Yes, Living in Arizona I am living the Oil Field Life. My better half works in Saudi 6 months a year doing Fracing in the oil field. So that means I get him the 6 months a year to love on and be around. Which I am lucky when it comes to the this life style. Other families go months with out seeing  their OFM ( oil field man)and to only have him home for a few days to week home before he is gone again.

    Trust me it not easy at all, but we make it work. Our secret is lots of texting back and forth when he is gone. I have to say it a blessing our phone company does unlimited oversea texting. Though I know he can't really do anything from so far away I still tell him about what is going on at home. He is my partner and still need to be on the same sheet of music I am when he gets home.  Yes i make the day to day choices but I still include him on the big stuff.

  Do I miss him? Yes, I miss him badly when he is gone. he works 35 on on 35 off. Some times the 35 days fly by quickly and he back home before we know it. Then there are hitches like this one where it get sideways and a full week got added  and it is going so slow. The day that seem to take for ever is waiting for that flight he is on coming home.

  We make this work for us. Yes I love to have him home more, but the oil field gives the chance to have the life we want for us and the kids. The long lonely nights make the nights he is close that much more sweet. It is like seeing him for the first every time he comes home. I get butterflies and giddy has a high school girl. I would not trade this for him to have a 9-5 job.

I love My Oils!!!

MY family just starting using doTerra oils and OMG I love them!!  I have take the Allergy trio (lemon, peppermint, and lavender) a few times and It works so much better then any OTC I have . The Trio actually works for me and doesn't make me sleepy or feel high. 

Thanks to allergies my kids and I all have nasty coughs. Thanks to a friend she gave me some tips on what oils to use and where to apply them. Using OnGaurd, Frankincense, Breathe, and Deep Blue oils we are all breathing easier. I also us a combo of oils on my son to help him focuse in school and on the football and it really has helped.

I love I can use the oils on everyone in the house. MY 1 yr loves having the oils applied to her. It is the only time while she is awake she will sit still, LOL. I can even use the oils to clean the house or cook with some of them. 

Then is no end in how you can use the oils. I am so Glad I have made this change into my family. My next big blend with be a thyroid blend for my 1 yr old.  I can’t wait to keep learning on what else I can do with my oils. It will be great to keep the use of OTC meds down or gone if we can. 

You can find these oils on my doTerra page.

Welcome

Welcome to my  new blog!!

This new blog is to share my new adventures in losing weight, doTerra oils, raising chickens, and so much more that is changing. First I will into my self. I am mom to 2 little ones Mr. W ( 5 yrs old)  and Miss T  (1 yrs old).  My  fiance Mr C, is one of the few greatest men I have ever met and so glad he has chose to love me and my rug rats. Mr C supports me in all my crazy ideas and dreams. My latest crazy idea is to use essential oils and hoping to sell them. SO far I love my doTerra oils and so does my family.

Along with my kids we have a mini zoo going on LOL.  3 dogs, 8 chickens, 2 ferrets, and a fish. The chicks are still small so come by the end of the month or Nov. they will be ready to go out side. I look forward to the day they start laying eggs. I love fresh eggs and very excited about this.

I am working on losing about 50lbs before next year, when my love and I will get married and i want to look my best and feel great on that day. Also I need to keep up with 2 little kids that are very active and full of life. I am just making small changes in my eating and getting more active.
