Is this really the beginning?

So I have had this blog for awhile now and its been sitting here blank ; "theres nothing here" as it tells me every time I sign it. Throughout the day I think, OH! I should share that but when I come here to write, I draw a blank, like everything thats going on could be condensed in 3 words. I come here because I want to share make up tips, step mom feelings, MOM stress and reality, my sweet animals, married life, and healthy living. Since this is the first blog, let me introduce my family and myself.

Josh- handsome husband :)

Gracie- 8 year old step daughter

Evie- 2 year old daughter

Mac- shih poo (mix of shih tzu + poodle)

Zoie- pregnant mini pony

Sage- baby daddy mini pony

2 chickens and counting

Megan- ME! I moved from KS to MO (the middle of nowhere) when I married my husband. I have lost 78 lbs in 8 months with exercise and diet but I have done this in the past and haven't been able to keep it off. I will talk about everything listed in the top paragraph but I will focus mainly on my journey to a healthier life. Thanks for the support in advance :)

2 week liquid diet

Today is the day! All liquids! Well, except for the popsicles, jell-o, pickles, and celery. I have to get in 4 premier proteins and then at least 48-64 oz of other liquids each day. Other liquids include: Water Diet V-8 Splash Sugar free jello Sugar free popsicles (less than 25 calories per popsicle) Fruit 2-0 Crystal light Diet Snapple up to 2 cups of broth decaf tea and coffee Propel water Powerade zero I don't really know what some of those are and yesterday when I went to look for Diet V-8 Splash to try it out, I couldn't find it so who knows. This morning I am having 2 vanilla premier protein shakes in a thermos with my decaf coffee. I also have a 20oz thing of water sitting here and a 32oz grape Powerade zero.

3 months + 2 days

I GOT A SURGERY DATE! December 27, 2018 at 8am I will be having VSG ( Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy). SO, on December 6th, I have to get labs, chest X-ray, and an EKG to ensure I am in top notch health. I also get to talk to the doctor that day just to go over everything for like the 3rd time and I say that in the best way possible. Nothing makes me feel better than getting as much one on one time with the man who will be doing the surgery and making sure all my questions are answered. THEN, I have to be at the hospital at 6am on the 27th and the surgery will begin at 8am; it will last around one hour. I have to stay in the hospital that night and then I should be able to break out the next day. I can't drive for one week and I can't lift over 10 pounds for two weeks........EVIE!!! :( I CANNOT wait to be blessed with this tool that will not only HELP me shed the rest of my weight but HELP me keep it off. I still have to ...

Happy anniversary

Josh is the kind of guy that you know the ladies look at but he doesn't know that. He doesn't talk some big game and when he was trying to win me over, he didn't use lines and sexual harassment to do it. He has big thoughts but isn't one to tell you he is right and you are wrong; he likes digging into things and finding out WHY. He has the biggest smile and when he gets excited about something he does little jigs or waves his hands in the air. Josh cares what people think of him so I like to think that one of my purposes here is to teach him not to or at least care a little less (we are getting there.) I stare at him A LOT, I love when he wears his hat backwards, he makes a simple white t-shirt look sexy as hell, and his lips are soo soft. He makes me really mad a lot of the time but at the end of the day, I wouldn't trade him for the world. Josh is unbelievably handsome a hard worker always willing to help others a j...
