I also lost 97 lbs. I have gained a little back,and I am keeping watch on what I am eating. You look great and I love your haircut. God bless you and your family.
Karen your hair is gorgeous! And congratulations 🎉🎊🎈 on the 97 lbs gone! Whoohoo! I KNOW YOU ARE EXCITED!! 😁 I am glad to see someone else doing yard work besides me. 🤣 I have been working in our yard raking & cleaning up, planting new plants, cleaning out flowerbeds, making new flowerbeds, etc… I also have been cleaning out my garage and hauling things to the recycling center. I have been able to move easier and do more this spring than I have in years. I think I can contribute that to my continuing to lose weight as well. It takes time when homeschooling, being a wife & mom, and all the other hats you wear. It’s perfectly normal to have a slowdown phase. That’s your body saying - Hey, take it easy! 😜 I am looking forward to any and all videos you share with us. I think you are an amazing, talented, wonderful lady and you deserve more than a manicure! 😁 Thank you for motivating and inspiring us to continue our own journey as we follow you with your own journey. Thank you! GOD bless you sweet friend! Have a very blessed week! ❤❤ PS… Hope you enjoyed the movie. 😊
Hi Cindy!! I am so happy for you!! You are getting to do so much now and feeling good!! I love that for us both! 💖 God is great!! I am excited to get planting!! We have one night this week that might hit 32* F!! We can usually safely plant my the end of the month!! Thanks for the encouragement always!! 💐💕
Hey Karen! The first thing I thought was wow! She looks so good! 😊 You have such a wonderful spirit and watching your videos are such a delight! Thank you! ❤️
You look so relaxed. The hair length suits you. Wow! Nearly 100 pound weight loss. You are moving smoother. And the cruise was just what you needed. Looking good!
Hi Karen, im so happy to hear many good news. One of them not only i have noticed, but to hear how much you have lost? Its amazing. You look great, feel great, th as ts wonderful to hear. Also, you are considering selling your home. I guess you have reached a point where you need a smaller place for you and your husband even though you still have the girls, soon they will also move out. You and your husband will soon become empty nesters as I am. It wont be easy, but its life. With that said, havent you considered a community place where everything is right there, you dont have to bother raking leaves, or any outdoor maintenance because someone else will be doing it for you. Downsizing is not easy either because there wont be any room to grow except if you get a 4 bedroom place where the girls can be until each one moves out and you will have more room, yet smaller than the house. Less house cleaning more time for you. Just a thought.
Hi Gina!! I have lost 100 lbs!! It feels so so Good!! We are getting the house ready to sell but real estate here is really high!! But I figure if it’s ready then I’ll either love it and want to stay or it’ll be easier to sell!! So I keep plugging along! I would definitely consider a community place. If we wait a year or so I feel like I will know better who is staying for awhile and who is moving right out. I would also consider something that had income potential. 🥰
Love your hair and your looking fantastic. Love the colour you picked for your nails. Good choice. Hope you liked the movie. I took my daughter to see it, we loved it x
Nice to have a video from you today! Great job getting things done when you weren't really feeling like doing chores. Congratulations on the 97-pound loss!!
Karen I love you Hair!! Plus, 100lbs. That is quiet a feat. You look like you're feeling so much better and are moving around so much easier. CONGRATULATIONS! cheers
So nice to see another video Karen. Your outdoor space looks really good after all the debris clearing and the trip to the dump you and Robin did. I appreciate what you said about work motivation being a difficult thing sometimes. My recommendation is to take it easy on yourself. Maybe your cruise indicated to you that you need to ease back a bit for a little while and honestly that OK, isn’t it. Speaking of selling houses, my brothers and I are finally putting my mum’s house up for sale at the end of May. It’s been hard work readying it for marketing; and to be honest so overwhelming and stressful. It’s sad to be selling the family home as three generations of my family have lived there in the last eighty or so years, but it is necessary. Personally, I would also love to move from my own house, but house prices have sky rocketed here in the UK and our house needs a lot of work to get it into a saleable state, so that isn’t likely to be happening for at least a couple of years. I’m the opposite to you as I live in London and really want to move away from the busy capital city to somewhere nearer to the countryside or the coast. Wishing you joy for the week ahead and that your motivation meets your needs for whatever you need to accomplish.
Thanks so much for all of your encouragement, Beth! I pray God brings the right buyer for your family home! I know it’s hard! When we sold my parent’s house after my mom passed, a woman bought it to have a good place to take care of her mother that was I’ll. Knowing that brought us so much comfort!! We knew my parents would be so happy about that!! For our own moves, we just need to trust God’s timing! He has it all worked out for our best!! 💐❤️
@@ThisMainerMom Thanks so much for your kind thoughts. I feel everything happens for a reason, we may not know why or appreciate it at the time, but when we look back we see how these things allow us to grow and be grateful. So glad your parent home was passed on to someone who appreciated it.
Karen you look amazing!!! I would so love to downsize but my boys are not out of the house yet and as you said the market is crazy! I look forward to your videos and the encouragement and motivation you give me.
I love the Guardians of the Galaxy movies but 2.5 hours is a little longer than I want to sit in a theatre. I hope you enjoyed spending the time with your girls.
@@ThisMainerMom I’m glad you had a nice time. My son and his fiancé want my husband and I to go with them to see it on Saturday. I’m so blessed that he still loves to spend time with us so I take whatever time I can spend with him. Our children grow up way too fast.
WOW, just wow! Congrats on the weight change. You are looking cute in that style of top! I replaced a few pieces of clothing for all of us, and the donations are in the car for drop off. Sons bought us veg plants and flowers for Mother’s day. I am still setting those out and potting up.

If I go to a movie after dinner I don’t enjoy it as much because I am constantly battling to not fall asleep😂
Yes I completely get that struggle! 🤣😴
you work fast lol. getting things done is a'great accomplishment. was nice to see you today. and leo too.
It was nice to see you too! 😃
I want to see Guardians of the Galaxy 3, but we do not go to the movies. So I have to wait till we can see it at home.
It seems like movies come to the TV APPS much quicker these days!! 😃
My banker told me to wait to buy a house for two years and that was seven months ago.
Wow!! That’s very interesting!! It’s crazy!! 😳
I love your shorter hair! I want to go even shorter than mine currently is. I have done that before but currently it a little longer.
Thanks!! I am loving how much easier it is! I can’t wait to see the style you choose!! 😍💖
