So excited!

I checked my views and it looks like there is already someone else who has checked out my blog! Thank you very much, I hope that that number keeps growing.

Today's post will be about K.

K and I met online and after dating for a couple years, got married in April of 2010.  He is the manager of a video game store and does a pretty good job at it too.  Since becoming manager, the store has doubled in size and their inventory and selection has grown by leaps and bounds.  I am so proud of him.

K likes to play games.  His system of choice is Xbox 360 and he does play daily.  Some people might think it's excessive, but it's his thing so I support it.  He always makes time for me and pretty much keeps the playing to when I'm not home so we can still spend all our time together.

He is the sweetest, most caring man I've ever been with, always putting his friends and family first.  He dotes on me and makes sure that I always have everything I need.  Everyone says that I got super lucky when we found each other and that he is a keeper...I agree!

PCOS

So in my first post I mentioned that I have PCOS and figured I should address it right off the bat so that people understand exactly what it is.

PCOS stands for Polycystic ovary syndrome.  It's pretty much a hormone imbalance that causes me a lot of grief.  There are a lot of good sites with information about it and all that it entails.  One of my favorites is U.S. National Library of Medicine . 

To try and help out with it I started a super low carb diet.  I am only allowed 30 carbs a day.  So far it's been a little rough, but worth it.  I started on January 9th and have lost 5lbs already.

My food consists of meats, eggs, cheeses, and a few different vegetables.  I have also found a couple treats that make it easier.  There is a peppermint cool whip that is delicious, and Applebee's makes amazing BBQ wings that are super low carb too!

I am lucky I have a supportive husband in all this too.  Since he gets home before me, he will cook pork chops, steak, or some other kind of meat so that I can have dinner when I get home.

I'll touch on it more throughout my blogging and how it is affecting my life.

The start...

For my first post I thought I should introduce myself and tell a little about what this blog will be about.  My name is B.  I am married to a wonderful man named K.  We have two dogs, a Border Collie named Ash, and a Maltese named Krypto.

I work in the back office at a bank fixing accounts, making changes when they need to be updated, and getting to play detective when a customer is declined.  K manages a video game store.  He loves to play his 360 which works out perfect for me because I have time to do other things when I get home.

I love to do projects.  Sewing, decorating, baking...it's all so much fun! 

We are trying to have a baby, unfortunately I have PCOS so it's being a long process.  I am now on a SUPER low-carb diet to hopefully make my body start working like it should, and loose a few pounds in the process.

This blog isn't about just one of these topics.  It's about all of them and so much more.  It's about my life and I can't wait to tell more!
