Changes for 2018??

We have a temporary change for our family. My husband is in the Navy and is getting posted to Sydney to a ship (about 3 hours drive from where we are based.)
The sweet thing is that the Navy pay for a city apartment for him so that allows us to visit whenever we want.
I am also starting university so this is going to be a busy year for us all.
My dad was in the US Navy. He was never on a ship! He was an airplane mechanic.
I got "sick" at the end of the year we lived in Italy. I saw the doctor the day before we left. He said it was gastritis. I was so bloated and uncomfortable. I found the Primal diet and did it for a couple of years and finally felt so much better. I have been doing a 75/25 primal since then but lately I have been eating too much wheat and sugar. I need a kick start back into it again.
I lost about 12-15 lbs when I broke my ankle in May. Some of it was the muscle mass I lost from not being able to really get around and having my lower leg in a cast and boot for over 3 months. But I have been slacking and just grabbing whatever to eat. I have gained 10 lbs back.

When you are stay at home mom you tend to forget yourself so that is my goal now that kids are older, pay attention to myself.
I went out grocery shopping so I have stuff to start on the 1st. I don't know when I'll get the car again! LOL
I wanted to go out to Earth Fare but I did not want to fight the traffic at the huge mall it's near.
I got to the library and picked a couple books for challenges for next month too.

We had a big move in 2009 and got rid of almost everything we owned. Just moved again in April and got rid of a bunch again. Maybe that's what moving is for! HA
Good Luck and have a GREAT time on the cruise!

My husband is an aviation technician working with helicopters however now he is a management position with a team working under him so not as hands on with the maintenance.
When we lived in Guam (in the early 70s), my dad made chief and got to boss the men around. Didn't come home dirty anymore.
One new member said she was making a diet change for 2018. I'm going to do whole30 starting Jan 2nd, in case I decide to make Hoppin' John for New Year's Day! I gotta get off sugar and wheat.
