My Newest Best Friend

MORNIN' Folks....
Hit the jackpot!  Took my chances.  I walked in as  WALK-IN to the Beauty Salon and the Receptionist said she could do my hair as she was not with a client.  She was young, energetic and worked her magic with my hair that was in need of HeLp.

Within 30 minutes she had washed my hair, dried it and flat ironed it.  I left with a changed looked and when I run my fingers through it, it feels like silk.  Long once again.

Later I will learn to flat iron my own HAIR and do this at HOME when I have HOME SPA TIME.  

With weight....will that's a different animal.  I know of no one that can wash, dry and flatiron me bod to make it look like maybe I wished it did.  Sigh.  With NO THYROID a person is still suppose to be able to lose weight.  My meds added weight on me.  The things some people say is what it is.  I know I am heavier than ever.  I know.  This month I will concentrate on reading more about HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT WITH NO THYROID.

Walking will take place with swinging of my arms.  Treadmill will become one of my closest friends this month.  I'm not use to walking all over friends or anyone or thing.  I don't want to be another's door mat, but HEY...a treadmill will be mine.  I have a plan and it had better work. 

As I stared at my arms this morning in the mirror, it hit me...I have a job to do.  How did it ever get so bad???  Will it just did.  ONE DAY AT A TIME SWEET JESUS.  When you feel half dead it becomes difficult to move, lift weights, DIEt, everything becomes more difficult.  Even breathing.

I have returned from the valley of death.  Bible says in Psalm 23, I will fear no evil.  
Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: 
for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

With Hubby's Insurance we have to earn points to get discount each year.  This year we have both signed up to be active with their weight loss program.  I am learning how to break peanuts in half, taking the half and breaking it in half then savor the moment before the peanut morsel goes in my mouth by sniffing it, licking it, and rubbing it on my lips before popping it in my mouth to suck it THEN roll it in my mouth before chewing on both sides of my mouth.   

Doesn't that sound just wonderful?  Imagine eating this way with family in the room or strangers in a restaurant...please and thank you.  May I have a different table way over there in the corner behind the tree.  Time to go.

Ummmmmm...I seldom eat peanuts.  Now what?  So this is going to be a challenge.  

I'll see what I can learn as I walk on the treadmill, research how to lose weight without a thyroid and age gracefully because I need to.

I will concentrate on walking, stretching and drinking filtered water.  More vegetables.  That's about it for today Folks.  May you have a good one.

HOME is where the heart is and I have to make room in that heart for my treadmill,
