Weight Loss

So the heaviest i have been is 141lbs and i have no self confidence when im that weight. I have been trying new things but the only thing that has worked for me is MyFitnessPal App just keeping track of what and how much i eat is the only thing that keeps me in check. So long story short today i weight 130lb!!!! That is so awesome!! My goal weight is 115lb that is what i was on my wedding day and i know i can do it again. Im on no special diet just making healthy choices and going for the lower calorie items.  Fitbit! I bought one well Michael bought it for me and i love it! I wish it workes while i did bjj and Yoga but at least it motivates me to run with Tanky and get him in shape too! I hit my 10,000 steps yesterday so that was cool! And im going for 15,000 next!  I have a doctors apointment tomorrow and labs so we will see what they say, i feel healthy and more fit so i hope they notice that and lower my steroids. Im so tired of them and i want to be done.  MagnessBJJ...

Updates!!

First of all Happy Easter!!  So much going on at the moment, bjj, weigt loss, new eatting habbits, steroids, MagnessBjj, and TopGameJJ.   Bjj is going great for me! I received my second stripe last month and i have been loving it! Feeling like its something i can let my stress out on and i have a great time sharing that in common with Michael.  Weight loss journey is going well! Last time i checked i weighed 134lbs and my goal is 115. I have gone down on my steroids so that has helped me loss weight but im still on 12.5 mg so once i get off them i will be able to drop the weight faster. I have been eating healthy but there are a few habbits i want to change 100%. Im giving up red meat, and chicken starting today. Red meat is going to be easy to do bc we pretty much already have done that. Chicken i have decided bc the other night i got sick from it and i just dont want to eat it anymore.  MagnessBJJ is doing GREAT!!! We are so happy with it and where its going. We ha...

No more Diets

So Magness Diet, Juice Fast, 30 Day Challange, no thank you!! lol At this point with my liver numbers trying to get back on track im not trying to start anything new just trying to eat healthy and cook more. Im now on 12.5 mg of Prednisone and feeling good! Side effects are finally going away and im feeling like some of the weight i ganied is finally coming off. Slowly but sherley, im also doing BJJ again and feeling great! It was hard at first bc i wanted to go back in full speed but i had to take it one day at a time.   New in our lifes... Adoption! We know that for me to have a baby anytime soon is kind of out of the question so we decided we're going to start with an adoption process and maybe in the next year so we can have a baby. Its going to be a long process and we want to get financially stable before we can even try to start anything with adoption.  We will see where life takes us but for now we are saving money and trying to stay healthy in every way :)

Liver

Michael and I one year ago decided to start planning a baby, so in order for me to do that I had to get off a strong medication i was taking at the time. So they got me off of it, I did great for a year and now a year later my liver enzymes have tripled the wrong way. So I get a blood test every 6 months and this past month it came back bad. I got an emergency liver biopsy 2 weeks ago was admitted for 3 days to get prednisone through IV they let me go 3 days later sending me home with more medications I have ever had. They let the medication work for a whole week got another test, liver numbers did look like they were going down but not as fast as they needed them to go. So now round 2 this Wednesday night I was admitted again had another biopsy but different type to get more information and now just here waiting for results that I should get today to see what the next step is going to be. I feel just fine other then the stupid side effects from the prednisone. But I'm just here fi...
