Update of randomness

I doubt I have mentioned this before but I have a jewelry company. It's called Realm of Glitter. I had been slacking quite a bit since I left my job in December but recently got on the ball and started taking decent pictures and posting them on etsy. Here are a few examples:

















Okay...so maybe that was more than a few. Sorry. :-/  I have a difficult time choosing.
Anyways...so these are some of the pictures of my jewelry that I have now posted on my etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/realmofglitter

And as soon as I get more money I can make new jewelry to take pictures of. 

On the weight loss front, things are going well though obviously not as fast as I'd like. Though probably more fast that I have any right to expect. I have lost about 30 lbs so far, and a total of 9 inches. (not just from my waist)

That feels good, it feels like progress. And the numbers aren't lying, even though I'm not seeing the results in myself. The primal living is going well. Though there was a brief period of cheating I have definitely gotten back on track. I have all of June and part of July's meals planned.
We are actually fasting every other day through June and possibly longer. It isn't as hard as I thought, though it has its moments. Like when I opened the refrigerator today and saw some delicious, bright red and very ripe strawberries. But I stayed strong, and I am determined. I can have a strawberry or two tomorrow if I want. 

I discovered that one of my weak points is that if I am facing temptation, sometimes I think that one little decision doesn't matter. So I'll have that Pepsi, or whatever it is. And then that makes it easier to cheat next time. So a new phrase that I'm telling myself is: Every decision makes a difference.

Because it does.
