30 Day Fiber Choice Get Picky Challenge Is Over!
Thirty days goes by so quickly. I can't believe my challenge has come to an end. Thirty days again I joined the Fiber Choice 30 Day Get Picky Challenge. We were offered out choice of Fiber Choice products and I naturally chose the weight management product.

This week I have to go in for my weigh in with my doctor and I will find out if he is going to keep me on the Adipex or take me off. I know he is going to ask me again about juicing so I decided to get a few juices in this week. I know I'm terrible. Let's see if this resparks my love of juicing. I love having juices but I don't love the clean up.
I wanted to catch up with everyone and give you all a quick update. Each week I attempt to create a meal plan to prevent the "What's for dinner?" stress. I will admit, things don't always go as planned but it is nice to have an idea. I posted my meal plan for last week and I tried to keep up with it as best as possible. I even threw in the Reduxa fat burner that I was sent for review.
What does that mean? I ate on track but I might have skipped breakfast or dinner. I have been trying to force myself to eat breakfast for years but it has been difficult. I can eat breakfast for dinner with no problem but I have trouble eating in the am.
I've been this way since I was a child. My grandmother tried to get me to eat in the morning but I just couldn't do it. My grandfather ate breakfast every morning but my mother never ate the am. My parents would eat breakfast occasionally but not anything worth mentioning. I guess the example was set that breakfast wasn't mandatory.
I started thinking and I decided to go back to intermittent fasting (IF). I started it but stopped in attempt to eat three meals. However, that is just not me and IF works better for me. Actually, I lose better with IF because I only eat between 4 and 9 or 10 pm. It depends on the window I set.
If you have been here for awhile, you will know I've done this before off and on. I am going to create a meal plan for the rest of the week and you will notice breakfast is missing. As for last week's weigh in, I'm down 4lbs. I'll take it!
Now, I gave the Reduxa a try in hopes it would give me a little boost in fat burning. Hey, every little bit helps. I try to keep things as natural as possible and thought these might work because the ingredients only list Garcinai Cambogia, Green Tea extract and Raspberry Ketone. I was hoping I could possibly replace the Phentermine my doctor put me when my thyroid function dropped.
I can't say that it helped. I didn't see an extra boost of weight loss or energy. It says it curbs appetites but I slipped up Sunday and had Chinese food because I was so hungry. I was not feeling well and wanted to eat right then. lol I went back to my Phentermine today to help get me focused again.
Oh, I almost forgot that my 20lb kettlebell came in on Friday. I can wait to try this one out. I have a 10lb kettlebell but it is just too light now. I'll search YouTube in a bit to find more workouts for legs. I have on DVD but I want to add a little more to it. If you have any suggestions, please leave a comment below.
Anywho, I will catch you next week. I have a video to post on YouTube tomorrow. Be sure to subscribe to the blog and the channel. Thanks for dropping by.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for review. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.What does that mean?

It is my first update in a bit. I wasn’t posting as much as
I used to because I didn’t want to be a Debbie Downer. Someone made me realize
there is a way to keep everyone updated without feeling as if I’m always
complaining. So, I decided to start updating the blog and the YouTube channel
on a regular basis again.
I know I've been posting a number of giveaways but nothing really about me lately. I've been trying a number of products to see what fits in my lifestyle and sharing my result with you. I feel that you can be have foods and drinks that are both healthy and delicious. So, the first thing is that I will continue to share my new finds.
I made it through the challenge. I wanted to share my 30 day picture challenge results with everyone. I will admit there were days I wanted to give up but I kept going. If you missed it, the challenge was for me to post a picture of what I had for dinner each night on my Healthy Living with Tiki account. If you want to see the pictures, click on the link. You don't have to be on Instagram or your phone to pull it up.
Well today is the 19th and I'm still at it. I've only missed posting two days since I started. I missed the first day because I slept through dinner. I woke up after 12am and I was not going to cook or eat that late. Last night I didn't eat because I didn't have an appetite. I lost it after I dropped a nearly full bottle of Moscato. It wasn't that the wine was gone but that I had to clean all of it up. All I could smell was just wine and it made me sick. Then to top it off, I have a piece of glass stuck in my foot. Ugh! I have to figure out how to get it out because it is killing me.
Anywho, enough of that. Things have been going great and I'm glad I decided to do that challenge. It has forced me to eat dinner at times I would skip it. It has also cause some revelations about my food choices and tastes. I realized that I have a thing for broccoli and I can eat it almost everyday. I never noticed it until now. I had someone mention before they could grocery shop for me because I always get the same stuff but I guess I was in denial. *shrugs* OK...sure!
Hello all,
No, I haven't abandoned my blog. I've been sick for a bit. So, I haven't been blogging here or on my hair/beauty blog. I have been posting a little on Facebook. The good news is that I'm losing weight. The bad news is it is due to sickness and stress. Tonight was the first night in a week that I ate a full meal. Needless to say, that was a bad idea. For those who have followed me for awhile, you know I have a few health issues but I tried to be positive about my set backs and issues. I'm doing the same now. I know the way I have been feeling is short term and I will be back to running and testing recipes soon. I am dying to try the Pumpkin Bake recipe with Bi-Pro protein added in. They sent me a container to review that I have not been able to do yet. They also have a few recipes on their site I want to try. So, I'm hoping I can get back to my normal chatty self soon.
Until the next time, I'll catch you on FaceBook!
