Valentines Day

        Valentines Day...

I'm not sure how many of my friends are (or aren't) celebrating Valentines Day. And oddly, thinking back...I don't think I have ever had a boyfriend during Valentines Day..  I realized the majority of my relationships ended a few weeks before it.. not that it matters, because we all know the best part of Valentines Day is Brach's Candy Hearts!

This year I have decided to celebrate Valetines Day with a best friend of mine. We do dinner once a week usually, and I figured why not Valetines Day.

I'm excited to make dinner ( I have sundaes planned for dessert, with homemade raspberry sauce, and heart sprinkles)!

I'm also thinking of making chocolate/raspberry milkshakes (mine would be super high calorie of course)... I add my calories after my friend has her's poured.

CF TIP: If you want to make a high calorie drink but are sick of milkshakes, because lets face it from birth, our doctors, nurses, and nutritionists are shoving milkshakes down our throats...  HOWEVER,  I love an Orange Julius! Pour some orange juice, add lots of ice cream, small bit of vanilla extract, then add a packet of instant carnation breakfast (vanilla flavor) & after its all done I pour a little heavy whipping cream in there too for extra calories -> you can't tell its in there. Very Yummy!

Today's BIG Appointment

 I discussed last week about my recent struggles & goals. I have been dealing with a lot all at once! Family planning (update on that in 2 weeks), my Grandma's funeral, lower lung function. Through it all I have remained very compliant with my meds! My health is VERY important to me. So this last weekend I took my vest machine, wabi sterilizer system , and packs of ensure to my parent's for the weekend. I wanted to make sure I did everything. While it was a sad occasion, it was still pleasant seeing almost all of the family together again. Actually 27 out of 29 of the cousins made it to the funeral. Grandpa is in the middle of the picture (can you find me?) LOL   On top of my medications I have been doing some dancing & walking, but no jogging or anything. I'm still counting calories on my fitbit (hitting over 3000) a day (& 40 grams of protein, 50 grams of fat at least). I knew I was feeling a bit better than before, but wasn't sure what to expec...

Beginning of the Year Troubles

Normal "beginning of the year" troubles for Andrew and I only really consist of one topic: Our Deductible [please no Obama, or government bashing] I've always had high deductibles ALL MY LIFE (no matter who was president). The problem is I hit my deductible within the first week of January. In the past I have always prepared for this and since I was still on my father's insurance (up until last year) he typically paid the bill (at least for medical stuff). And in the future Andrew & I won't have such an issue with this. We will be able to save and plan ahead for the $3,000 (for my deductible, his is another $3,000). However, this year was more difficult. We saved all 2013-2014 for our wedding & honeymoon, plus had our deductible saved too. But Real Estate was a pricey career to start, I've put almost $5,000 into it (classes, dues, licensing, exam, advertising, etc). So needless to say our deductible disappeared, thanks to my new career. Wh...
