What's Your Song? Thursday Link Up!

I walked into my office this morning, realized it was Thursday, and did a little dance :) I love the What's Your Song Thursday link up. Would it be weird to say that it gets me through the week? Probably, but I'll do it anyway!

This week I have been contemplating a serious change in my life. It would involve quitting my job, taking a few months to work on myself and my health, then working on finding something that will make me feel more fulfilled. This seems like a drastic change, and it is. I'm sick of IT. I don't want to sit in front of a computer all day. It's a partial cause of my back problems, my weight, and my stress - all of which I need a major break from. I'm still going to finish my Master's degree, because I want to be able to teach. I can teach IT once I graduate. But that's just a side thing. I've been looking into Nutritionist and Herbalist classes/certifications. Ever since I started to take control of my life and start fighting PCOS, I realized that there weren't really a whole lot of options for women like me - Women with no insurance, and women who don't want doctors to shove pills down their throats. I've made pretty much all of my decisions for treatment by myself based on tons of research. But not everyone is a research junkie like I am. I'd like to be able to help other people fight their problems like I have - with safe, natural supplements that are better in the long run than prescription medications.

So anyways, my song this week is based on my thought process for the week. It also just happens to be one of the greatest bands alive (IMHO). Here's Bon Jovi with It's My Life!

My First Giveaway!

My last post was about my decision to start a bakery. I'm very excited about it, and have been getting some fantastic reviews from my taste testers! My menu is small right now, but I am continually working on new recipes to expand it. I'm currently attempting to make a really good gluten free sandwich bread that doesn't have corn, potato, white rice, or soy in it. I hope to have it done by opening day, Nov 1. I know it's weird to open on a Tuesday, but I plan to be very busy celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary on Halloween by scaring little kids :) I figured one of the best ways to advertise the bakery was to have a blog giveaway. So that's exactly what I'm doing! One lucky reader will receive a $20 gift certificate to I Can't Believe It's Good For Me. The giveaway is open until midnight, Oct. 31. The winner will be chosen by random.org and announced on Nov 1. Here are the rules: 1 - You must complete the mandatory entry. 2 - Post each entr...

Cortisol and Leptin...

Photo credit I feel so run down. I felt like this most of last week, and ended up taking 3 days off work due to it. This weekend was better - We went to Houston. We spent several hours enjoying the Downtown Aquarium on Saturday, and I enjoyed my PCOS symposium on Sunday. But as soon as I got in the car to head home, this feeling came back. It was so bad that I tossed my cookies less than an hour after we got on the road. This was definitely not from being car sick. I don't get car sick. I was tired all evening, had stupid issues with my homework, and finally went to be at 2-2:30. I realize that was late, and it could explain why I'm tired, but it doesn't explain the run-down, crappy feeling. I got plenty of sleep last week and still felt this way. I think it could be a cortisol issue. I have high cortisol levels. I know I haven't checked with a doctor, but from the information I received at the PCOS symposium, as well as years of research, it fits. I did some more re...
