Day 116 of 103in365 *Round 3* 36/103

Hey There!


Another 2 LBS down this week! I'll take 2 LBS a week progress!

Last week was a long one, but a good one. I was not perfect in my goals, but the foundational changes that I have made to my diet and lifestyle are continuing to pay off. (It's about Progress not Perfection).

We have been told forever that for most of us, losing weight can be broken down to calorie reduction and increased movement.

Eat fewer calories and move more.

This is a concept that we all know and it is a simple one. Simple but not easy.  Many things in life are simple but not easy. Losing weight is simple but it can be rather difficult. Not difficult to understand, there are really just two main concepts after all, but it can often be very difficult to execute and maintain. A successful person needs to adapt and create and discover different strategies so that staying on the right path becomes and stays FUN and INTERESTING.

I don't know about all of you, but it is not likely that I will maintain any behavior over time that is is not fun and is boring. I need to be enjoying myself, be engaged and have more than just good intentions.

An an example of one of the ways I am keeping things interesting and exploring new strategies is a few days ago I started taking doTERRA's Slim & Sassy Metabolic Blend. I have been putting a few drops in a glass of water in the morning, noon and night. It is said, and I have noticed it working even in the short time I have been using it, to help manage hunger, to calm your stomach and elevate your mood. I have been using essential oils for over a year for different things, but this is the first time I have tried utilizing Slim & Sassy.

I am learning a lot about essential oils recently and getting really excited about them. If you want more specifics about my experiences with essentials oils or are curious about them and want to try any, I would love to share a sample with you. You can contact me at onehundredinthreesixtyfive@gmail.com  and we can start a conversation and I could help answer any questions you might have. My knowledge base is growing and my wife's understanding of essential oils is profound. 

Have a great week!
