I’ve been having a lot of fun running around with family lately! I’ve also been trying to keep the diet a little healthier since last weekend. I’ve found it’s much easier to eat well when I’m in my own home, but when I go to my mom’s house…..it’s SO HARD! She has so many yummy treats there right now and it is KILLING me! I’ve been having this for breakfast most mornings… Some sort of veggie/egg mixture with a side of fruit. I’ve been lovin’ cherries SO MUCH this summer. YUM! I’ve had my weird lettuce/fruit/cottage cheese mixture a few Continue Reading…
Fun Time with Family and Too Much Sugar!
Well guys, life has been hectic, hectic, hectic! It’s also been fun, fun, FUN too! This is also going to be a LONG post! My little sister and her kids arrived from Connecticut last week and my brother and his family arrived from Georgia on Saturday, so it’s been a big ol’ party! We’ve had so much fun, but MAN I’m SO DANG tired! My healthy lifestyle has seriously been struggling, but I know it will be short-lived. Mentally I’m still 100% dedicated to health and fitness, but physically…that’s another story. I seriously feel like my body has just decided Continue Reading…

Running Around Like a Crazy Lady, But Still Trying to Stay Healthy-ish
Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a fun weekend. I told you guys in my last post that I was very tired and craving cookies, right? I’m happy to say I haven’t been as tired the past couple days (woo hoo!), but I still crave cookies! I’m sure I’ll always crave them. I actually ended up making cookies on Sunday night and it made me happy. I didn’t take a picture though, dang it. I’ve decided my goal for these last few weeks of pregnancy is to just NOT falter at the finish line. I’ve tried really hard Continue Reading…
I’m a Worn Out, Tired, Pregnant Lady who Craves Cookies
K, so I’ve decided it’s very hard to write a health and fitness blog when I’m not feeling very health and fitness-y! I’m still passionate about health, but my body just doesn’t want to cooperate! A scripture in the bible (Matthew 26:41) comes to mind, “The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Um ya, that pretty much sums it up. I have been so darn tired lately. I’m not just talkin’ a little bit fatigued, I’m talkin’ MEGA worn out, run down, lay on the couch and veg kind of tired. Man. My whole body is startin’ Continue Reading…
A Healthy Week + A Fabulous Fourth!
Yes, I’m ALIVE! I’m so sorry to leave y’all with nothing but the sound of crickets on my blog the past several days. We’ve been runnin’ around like crazy and also enjoyed a fun holiday weekend! I did pretty well with my “One Week Health Challenge” thing. I ate a TON of fruits, veggies, real whole grains, chicken, yogurt, cottage cheese, etc. I also stayed away from cruddy food, except for one small indulgence on the 4th and a few fries on Saturday night. I must say that those fries made me SO sick the rest of the weekend. Blah. Continue Reading…
