Well hey my friends! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I love this time of year! I love how Thanksgiving is so much about family, memories and gratitude. What a beautiful holiday! I feel thankful we get to celebrate it. I have so many fond memories of Thanksgiving. It’s so interesting how so many sounds, smells and just the little things are so nostalgic to me! It always brings me back to being a kid and reminds me of the innocence of childhood. Love it. This year we spent Thanksgiving with my family. We trade off going up Continue Reading…
Reevaluating my Goals + Starting another Challenge!
Well folks, I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend! I’m still goin’ strong with the goals I talked about in my last post. I haven’t been perfect at them, but I haven’t given up either! I just keep pluggin’ along and learning as I go. I really, really love intermittent fasting guys. It just makes me feel so good, always chills out my appetite and helps me to sleep like a rock. I didn’t do intermittent fasting for a couple weeks last month (crazy life!), so I’m so happy to be back at it. I will say that the first Continue Reading…
Craziness + Setting Some Legit Goals
Well holy moly folks, yes I’m still alive! I’m not even going to say I’ve been busy because that’s just the norm these days! Sometimes this poor little blog just gets neglected. 🙁 One BIG reason my blog has had crickets chirpin’ lately is my laptop computer conked out!!! Wha!??! So sad, scary, frustrating and stressful at the same time!! It’s been acting up a little bit the past couple months, but last week I got a little bit of water in it (long story) and it killed it. Thankfully, I was able to recover all of my data. Phew. Continue Reading…
Not Quitting + Easy, Simple Meal Ideas
Hello, hello! <3 I must say that I am in a very interesting spot health-wise right now. I told you guys that I got way off track in December. We were all sick for about 2 1/2 weeks. I missed a ton of workouts. My diet was just ho-hum. THEN, when I did start to feel better, it was about a week before Christmas and I just DID NOT feel like being hardcore in regards to health and fitness, so I just coasted. I tried to get back on track the day after Christmas, but quickly fell apart as all Continue Reading…
My Goals for 2018 + We had a Wonderful Christmas!
Happy happy New Year! 🙂 I really love this time of year! I’m not a huge fan of January weather, but I love the calmness, clarity, motivation and fresh start that January brings. <3 I love taking the opportunity to reevaluate my life, set some goals, shape up a few things and get to work! My December was so so so crappy as far as health and fitness goes! Holy Hannah. I’m definitely feeling extra fluffy. It’s okay though because it’s also helping me to feel motivated and happy to get back to work. I went to the gym tonight Continue Reading…
Christmas Fun + Trying to Still Stay Mindful
Christmas is in just a few days!! Eeeee. I absolutely love this time of year. I love the Christmas season and everything that goes along with it. It really is magical. <3 However, it is dang freaking busy as well. I’m not a huge fan of that. 🙁 It also doesn’t mesh well with the whole “trying to live a healthy lifestyle” thing. Case in point, I went to a High School Drill Team party with my daughter last night and there were SO MANY treats!!! Ahhhh. I seriously don’t think I’ve ever been to a party with that many Continue Reading…
