Healthy Journey: No Pills, No Fad Diet, No Weight Loss Clinics, No Surgery…Just Healthy Eating and Exercise

Losing weight in a health way has been our goal from the beginning. We knew going into out healthy lifestyle change that we wanted to take as many processed foods out of our diet as possible. That was a non-negotiable.
We also wanted our healthy journey to be sustainable. We have tried Keto in the past, and although we had good results…we immediately gained the weight back PLUS SOME after we got off the diet. We didn’t want that.
We also understood the importance of surrounding ourselves with people who could encourage and inspire us along the way. So we sought out people who had “been there done that” AND who were starting their healthy quest as well.
The results have been awesome AND God has definitely blessed this first stage of our life change. As we continue down the road to healthy living, we want to continue documenting and sharing our experiences and encourage and inspire y’all too. We also want to continue being inspired by y’all…Y’ALL ROCK!
Until the next video, have a blessed day! Peace!

Healthy Food For A Healthy Mood: Todays Trip To The Farmers Market (8-13-22)

Went to the Saturday farmers markets in Round Rock AND Georgetown (Texas). There were a lot of great vendors as usual. One of these days I’m gonna try yhe lemonade from the Lemonade Lady…it looks soooo good!
Since we’re back at work (students report Monday) we shopped for our entire week. We got yummy vegetables, grass fed beef, and all natural pork today. No fruits today… the heat is hurting the “sweets”!

Pork loin, hamburger meat, pork chops, tenderloin steaks, basil, zucchini, yellow squash, tomatoes, yellow onions, Serrano peppers, purple onions, okra, a variety of peppers, and mushrooms Today’s Farmers Market Haul:

We are Mitch and Courtney Fairchild, and we’re documenting our journey from unhealthy to healthy. No fad diets, pills, or surgery…just healthy eating and exercise. Just like our high school Health teacher told us! (if only we had listened)
On the road to better physical, mental, and spiritual well-being we’ve learned a lot of lessons (and we’re still learning them). We know that there is no way for us to reach our health goals without the strength, grace, mercy, and love of our Heavenly Father. He is who gives us strength and guidance on our journey.
We’ve also learned that the road to a healthy life is not made to be walked alone. Gotta have God by our side AND…almost as importantly…we’ve learned the importance of having a solid group of people who can encourage us, and that we can encourage as they go on their journey to a better life! The people we’ve met along the way have been a huge driving force for us…and we love to pay that back to others who are in the beginning stages of their own healthy journey.

Today’s Fresh Produce Haul (8-11-22): Farmers Markets Are My Spirit Animal


New potatoes and tomatoes Since Courtney and I are back at work (teacher’s summer is over…waaah!), we’ve had our oldest daughter (Carly) go pick up fruits and veggies from our local farmers markets in our little county.
Today was the weekly pop-up FM in Georgetown. We sent her after tomatoes…I was running low…and she picked up some new potatoes as well. Our family LOVES green beans with new potatoes. It’s one of our favorite sides. I think she’s trying to drop a subtle hint!
If you’re on a healthy lifestyle journey, OR you too are a farmers market “ fanatic“, we’d love to connect. CLICK HERE to start receiving our newsletter and more information about our growing little community of men and women journeying down the path of healthy living.
Until next time, have a blessed day!

Y’all!!! Courtney is down 26 pounds! That’s AMAZE-BALLS! So proud of her!
Two things happened today. First…it is meet the teacher night At the school where Courtney and I work, and I am wearing the polo they handed out to staff. I have not been able to wear a staff polo in a long, long, long time!
Second, I was helping Courtney in her classroom, and I sat in one of her little desks… The ones with the desk attached to the chair… And I actually fit! I have not been able to fit in those in about 15 years.Our healthy journey is going great! We are having to adjust to our new schedule… as in back to work schedule. I really, really, really miss summer! But… I am excited to meet this year’s students.
Until next time…have a blessed day!

Healthy Living Update: Day 85; Uncle Si; Weigh-In; Courtney Is Still A Loser; Y’all Inspire Us!

Healthy habits are key to starting a healthy lifestyle regimen. Even though we’re back at work, we keep our daily heath and nutrition routines going like clockwork.
From eating healthy to working out to reading my book daily…I keep doing ALL THE THINGS so that my health journey stays on course. My water intake is still on point (over 1 gallon a day), and I my calorie intake is on point! Two 45 minute workouts a day, and no cheating!
God has been good to us through this journey to better health! We couldn’t have started these baby steps without Him! Or y’all! Your encouragement and kind words have been an inspiration to Courtney and I and we’re extremely thankful.
Until next time…have a blessed day!

Our Latest “Route 45” Destination: Brushy Creek Lake Park In Cedar Park, Texas

Today we traveled up the road a ways to Cedar Park, Texas where we found a little gem of a walking trail called Brushy Creek Lake Park. The address is:
3300 Brushy Creek Rd
Cedar Park, TX 78717Honestly…it was a great little park! There was rushing water in Brushy, there were bridges, deer, and fossils too. We loved our 45 minute walk.
Just a heads up…there are some steep parts. Coming off the dam on the back side was a steep switchback. And the route we took (through Champion Park) had us going uphill as we re-entered Lake Park from the Brushy Creek Rd. side.
Overall…great walk! Cooler than normal (only 97) and breezy with a spot or two of rain sprinkles.
Until next time…have a blessed day!

Fresh Produce From The Farmers Market: Frits and Vegetables and Meats…Oh My! Garden To Table Baby!

Today (8-6-22) Courtney and I made our weekly trek to the Saturday farmers market by our house.
Saw a lot less vendors this morning. Either the heat is killing off the fruits and veggies (probably) or the end of the farmers market season is getting closer (hope not). We only visited one today, so I don’t know if they all had a decrease in vendors. But…ours was missing quite a few mom & pop businesses. Hope and pray their all OK!
Today’s Fresh Produce Haul: watermelon, yellow squash, zucchini, pickled garlic, new potatoes, tomatoes, purple onion, fresh processed hamburger patties, and pork belly!
Yummy!!!
