It has been a little rough, but even through the storm we must remember that we are still blessed and God has a plan for our lives.&nbsp; So, although it has been a pretty painful month…I can honestly say there were still great moments and I am grateful for all of them.

I will take this time to say that each and every one of you reading this post should get your phone out and schedule your physical for the year.&nbsp; I have not always done that, but since I am all about living our truth…I decided enough was enough that I needed to get a new doctor (didn’t really care for my last one and used that as an excuse) and get a physical.&nbsp; I took the shingle and wisdom tooth/teeth episode as a sign&nbsp;that I should take much better care of myself…so needless to say I spent the remainder of last month and beginning of this month going to doctor appointments.&nbsp; I can honestly say everything is fine and my doctor and I&nbsp;have a plan of action in place for the next six months, so I guess that means it's time&nbsp;to get back on track with my weight loss journey!
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="color:#800080;"><strong>Alright so enough about my healthy...now for some really exciting news! &nbsp;</strong></span></p>
Despite all the happenings last month, I was&nbsp;able to begin working on the highly requested new decluttering challenge and I hope you are just as excited as we are!&nbsp; This challenge will be a little different from our THBLYT Challenge in that it will not be posted on our website, so if you are interested in participating you will have to actually sign up for it using this <a href="http://eepurl.com/buh03f" target="_blank">THB 30 Day Decluttering Challenge Link</a>.&nbsp; Each part of this challenge I have personally doing myself, so grab your friends, neighbors, family and co-workers and have them signup for the challenge as well!&nbsp; As you know, we believe support is what helps each of us continue to strive on and this challenge is no different.&nbsp; We look forward to having you participate and seeing you succeed!
