Weight loss on the road

Weightloss on the road is one of fhe hardest things to do. To be honest it is even harder than at home. At least at home you have a full refrigerator and a stove to cook with. In our truck I am working with a microwave, an electric skillet , a George Foreman and a small refrigerator . It is working for us still. In the last week I have made.all of our food in the truck, minus a small snack that we ate out, while using the wifi in a restaurant . We are trying to stick to a broadened form of the weight watchers points menu, as since we started in in February, combined we have lost over 75 pounds. That is a lot! I ultimately would like to lose another 40 or so, and Nick would like about the same. It is starting to get a bit harder, and we are.finding we are having to continue to add.even more.physical activities to our daily lives. We don't want to be "big macs with legs" as I call them. Which I can say I have.never actually even eaten a big mac in my life, but that's a different story, lol. We would like to lose it by January, when we go on vacation, but who knows what will happen between now and then. I do have to say it is quite ni e putting on pants that I wear all the time and finding that I am now.swimming in them. I can't wait to see the.end results and know great it ceels that I have worked so hadd to make myself healthier.

Back on the road!!!

I am so happy to be able to be back out on the road with Nick. Yesterday. we spent the day moving into the truck that will be our new home. I am still not driving. because I am in the process of upgrading. my license to a Class B to be able to drive the truck. We are now in a Kenworth T300. I was very surprised by the space that I had for all of our clothes and food. This morning I even cooked our first meal together in here. I can not wait to see all of the creations that I will be able to make in here. I have also even gotten used to sleeping while moving in here, which people had said may take some time. I think part of it has to do with the fact that I am back with Nick and no longer having to continually worry about him. In the next few days look for our first adventure...

Goodbye

I have been working on my farewell blog now for a few days. To be honest it is one of the hardest ones that I have written. I feel like I am turning my back on everyone and giving up. But I am not. I am not giving up. I just am moving on. I feel like I am not doing good enough to be on the front page, to be sharing my life with you, when I am just sitting at home, doing odd jobs, until I am able to come back out on the road. It is one of the hardest things that I have done.

I admit I cry most everyday. I am an overly emotional person. I always have been. It is hard being away from Nick after being together almost every day since we have met, but I have the greatest faith in our relationship and know that there is nothing to worry about.

It is hard giving up something that I have enjoyed doing for the last year. I have enjoyed meeting people and sharing with them. I have enjoyed meeting them, and hearing what they have to say. At the expo it was so great to have people come up and introduce themselves and tell me that they feel as if they have known Nick and I for a long time, due to reading my blog. It was so hard to tell Lawrence that I wouldn't be writing anymore. I just feel that someone who can do a better job than me deserves the chance to do so. I will continue to write on here for anyone who chooses to continue following me.

Thank you to everyone.
