A History Lesson

Hello all and welcome!  I am Nicci and this is a blog of my life journey in all aspects.  I am married into the military (Oorah ;) ), have been for a little over a year, we have a little pug named Gordo (who I will talk about A LOT because he is basically my child), and I am overweight.  This is also the first time I have been away from my family for this long and at such a distance.  My husband and our best friend peer pressured me into playing xbox a few years ago and I play more than they do now.  I'm a gaming nerd and my husband loves it haha.

My husband and I have been married for 1 year and together for almost 5.  He gave me my little black pug Gordo for my birthday a year ago.  Gordo has the most personality and so far he makes a pretty good substitute for littles.  He is also the perfect example of the toddler I never want ha.  On that note we are most definitely hopeful for children soon...ish.  There are complications.  I was pre-diagnosed with PCOS and we should hopefully find out soon for sure.  It's very difficult to think I may not be able to actually conceive.  This of course can be helped by losing weight.  Which is what I would like to focus on.

Recently a new friend came into my life and introduced me to Herbalife.  Today is day one of that journey.  I have tried diet after diet after diet but in the end I find I have no will power whatsoever.  I LOVE cooking and baking.  This does not mean I'm a short order cook...I definitely cook on my own terms and time.  I hope to find and share new HEALTHY recipes and finally kick this weight to the curb.

This girl likes to be funny.  I like to have a good time and absolutely dislike buzzkills, debbie downers, and negative nancys.  There is absolutely no reason you have to be so mean and down about everything in this life.  Expect posts of joy, venting, and a lot of cooking as I try to figure this stuff out.  Hopefully everyone has a wonderful Friday and weekend.
