Hi Dolls,
Please enjoy the above pic of my family. My Mother was the quintessential 1960's housewife...Dad was our protector and provider....this was a typical Saturday afternoon. I am sitting with my Daddy on the lawn chair. How adorable is my Mom's simple house dress!! She looks so calm and classy but I am sure she was very busy.
40 Day Fast Update
I am feeling great on day 18 of the sugar fast! I have not really lost any weight but I do feel better. Some things I have been doing to keep myself motivated are...
1. Weight in every morning.
2. Write down all my food and track calories the best I can.
3. Exercise 30 min a day.4. Take supplements....Dr. Oz suggests....Vitamin B, Vitamin D, Calcium/Mag, Fish Oil, and a Multi-vitamin for women over 40. I also take acidophiles for my candida problems.
5. 3 meals a day and 1 or 2 small snacks. Higher protein and low fat dairy are the best to stimulate weight loss.
I am still 7 lbs down from April so at least I am going in the right direction
Below is a pic of me in a long khaki skirt and blue top with a bow...feminine and comfortable. I am also wearing ballerina flats! This way I can run around on my lunch break and get a few extra steps in. I also do the stairs daily.

I am so energized this time of year. The fall colors and cooler weather, well, I just Adore it! There is just something in the air that inspires me to be better.
Proverbs 31 Ministry -
A Better Wife, Mother, and daughter of God. The Fascinating Womanhood classes started and we are learning about Celestial Love and the Human and Angelic qualities of a women.
This has helped me to see what strength's I have but also where I could improve in understanding my husband more (understanding men in general) and also being more childlike and dependant. When we are like this, it awakens something in our husbands. Their innate need and desire to care for us. Already, applying these principles, my husband is happier, and so am I! He is more loving toward me, more affectionate. And even has scheduled a special trip for the two of us this weekend.

These are the things I am working on this month to become more like the proverbs 31 women...
1. Her Children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.
2. She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.
3. She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
Kisses,
