Beauty Tips for Daughter

Hey loves, coming to you with my weight loss update. Sorry it's so late, but such is life. As you know, two weeks ago I started on a path to be more productive on weight loss journey. Last night I stopped at Bed, Bath, And Beyond and picked up one of those scales that measure your weight, body mass, water weight and something else. I had a scale at home, but I wanted an update scale like the one I purchased. Two weeks ago I stated my starting weight was 256lb, however, when I weighed myself I was fully clothed. This morning before I got dressed and put anything in my belly, I stepped on the scale an it read 258lb (side not...I'm blotted and Mother Nature paid a visit today). I will say my weight prior to this was probably 253lb without clothes. I haven't really gotten into gear like I need to, but I have started moving. At work I walk at least one mile on my breaks. I get two 15min breaks and I walk 1/2 mile each. I have also been making breakfast at home for the most p...

I'm a scent and smell freak. I LOVE things that smell good. When I want my home to smell absolutely amazing, I burn my Home Fragrance Oils for The Body Shop, thebodyshop.com . However, ever so often I will purchase candles or room sprays from Bath and Bodyworks, http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/product/index.jsp?productId=22811246&cm_vc=200 . So, last year I fell in love with this candle from B&BW and the scent is Mahogany Teakwood. OMG, this stuff is amazing!!! I'm so glad they brought it back for the fall and winter months. This is how B&BW describes Mahogany Teakwood- "A quick spray fills every room with its very own Eau de Parfum! Perfect to use at home, a hotel room, the office or any space you wish to fragrance instantly. Each little bottle holds over 400 hours of amazing scent!

 For the past few years I have tried to lose weight, but to no success I have failed. I'm the only person to blame. I'm not as active as I was 10-15 years ago because I was in the Army and I had no choice but to be active. My youngest child was born 11ys ago and since then my weight has skyrocketed to 256lbs over the past 11yrs.. I have never been super thin, but this is beyond embarrassing....and I'm ready for a true change. Army circa 1995 After my youngest son was born I did get down to a size 14, as I was breast feeding, but once I stopped breastfeeding I didn't do anything to get the remainder of the weight off. I was living in New Jersey after my husband and I got out of the Army. Jersey is where he is from so we moved there. Being a Texas girl, born and raised, I always wanted to live in other states...so that's exactly what we did. However, I didn't take into account how it would effect my social life. I had no friends or family there to help encourage m...
