My Wearable Girl is Now on ETsy

My Newest Creation............

My very latest creation......... This is a doll pin that you wear. I can also convert her to make her into a small hanging ornament. She is called 'Reach for the Stars' and she is one of a kind. She is about 5 1/2" tall. I'm working on getting better pics of her. She will be available on etsy, hopefully today.

Fifty-ONE pounds GONE!!!

Yeah!!!!! Wooh, wooh, wooh, wooh, wooh!!!!

Yeah, baby. : ) Here are two of the great things I eat every day. These are helping me to lose weight and to keep my Type II Diabetes under excellent control. The first pic shows a bag of the superfood, Chia Seeds....If you haven't tried them yet, run to your nearest organic foods store, vitamin shop, etc. and get some!! While you are there, see if the store carries these WONDERFUL whey protein drinks by Designer Whey. What I do is this: I add about 1 tbsp. of chia seeds to a Designer Whey Protein Drink. Shake A LOT!! Put in fridg for at least 15 mins. During that time, the tiny chia seeds absorb some of the liquid and they puff up a little bit. Then, when you drink the protein drink, it tastes like you are drinking tapioca pudding and it has that same texture of the neat little bump things that tapioca pudding has. It is absolutely DELICIOUS!!! I drink this through the day, a few sips/gulps with each snack and, sometimes, a few sips/gulps with my small meals. It depends a lot on what I'm doing on a particular day and also on how much exercising I'm getting that day. Many days, I need to drink more of this mix. These are great and are portable. I never leave home without having one with me as well as a protein bar, some organic crackers and my vital id medical bracelet. The next pic shows the delicious cereal I eat every morning. I only eat 1 serving of it, with enough coffee creamer to moisten it. Many days, I put a few almonds in it. Ummm...Ummmm..... Plus, drink lots and lots of water. : ) Love to all, Cindy

Working on some new things

Yes, indeed I am! I've started a new series of kind of 'artsy' little dolls. I hope to have pics of the first one within the next couple of days. I am also beginning to study the energy of crystals and I am working on my own spirituality as it relates to everything around me. It is very empowering and enlightening and I am enjoying it a lot. Still working on the job stuff and I am also looking into the possibility of financial aid to get some schooling. I am continuing my weight loss and my healthy eating, water drinking, etc., but I had to back way up on the exercise/movement stuff because I've severely strained at least several muscles. Ouchey! One step forward, two steps back as they say.

Hello and happy day to all of you, I have such HUGE news of a personal health-related nature. : ) I saw my doctor today and she is soooo impressed with how I am doing. I asked her if I can drop one of the two doses of Metformin (diabetes medicine) I take per day and she said YES!!!! Woo-hoo!! Take that diabetes! I am soooooo proud of myself. : ) Go, me! Loves,

My Cocoon is Changing....

Hello and Happy Sunday, my friends, This is a little difficult to write. I am going through some life challenges which are hard for me. The challenges have been there for a long time, but a light filled pathway has appeared and it is in the process of opening, growing, enlarging. It is so hard to let go and trust that everything is going to be okay if I DO let go of the illusion of security I have been clinging to for so long. Still that is what I must do in order to grow my wings and fly. All support and encouragement during this difficult time will be gratefully accepted. I also want to tell all of you about a miraculous book I'm revelling in. It is called "Growing Wings" by Kristen Jongen (Young-in). I urge all of my female friends to get it and to absorb it. Love to all, The transforming Cindy

FORTY-FOUR POUNDS GONE!

Hello to all! It's been a while since I've posted. Been busy losing more weight. : ) Hear ye, hear ye!!!! FORTY-FOUR pounds are gone, never to be seen again on this body. Can you believe it? And soon it will be fifty gone. I'm exercising a lot more: active housework and walking primarily. And, believe me things like housework and going to the grocery store, etc. count as exercise! I just went yesterday to get the bloodwork done to check to see if I'm deficient in Vitamin B-12. I'll let you know what the results are. I've been knitting lately. Right now, I'm working on a smallish kitty blanket/front window ledge cover for our front bay window. It's done in a thick rosey purple boucle baby yarn and a multi cream/pale yellow/pale blue/pale coral ombre soft worsted weight yarn. I'm doing garter stitch and it's really pretty and kind of thick and plushey for the cat children to lie on while they sun themselves in the window. :) I'm also working on another knitted kitty blanket that is bigger than the purple-ish one. This one is done in a lime green bulky Lion Brand Homespun yarn combined with a chunky ombre yarn that is jewel tones: brilliant turquoise, matte black, purple, green, royal blue. Need to get pics! I'm reading several books right now: "Rivermarked" by Patricia Briggs, "Spirit Bound" by Christine Feehan, and "The SS Brotherhood of the Bell: The Nazis' Incredible Secret Technology" by Joseph P. Farrell. I'm also re-reading The Gabriel Method by Jon Gabriel (weight loss and life change). Jon's book is absolutely life-changing. If you don't have it yet, go get it! Jon has a website at www.gabrielmethod.com Love to all, Cindy
