Hey! Well, I’ve been stickin’ to my “Healthy Plan” for about a month now. Woot! I’m so glad I’m doing it and I know I’ll see it through to the end! I’m 4 weeks down with 7 1/2 weeks left to go! I still haven’t lost much weight and it’s quite discouraging. My body just feels a little “off” lately and I know I just have to be patient. That’s why I’m so glad I’m doing this healthy plan until Thanksgiving. I’ve learned that sometimes my body can just be jacked, hormonal or both and it really helps to stick Continue Reading…
My New Healthy Plan + Some Tips that Help Me Stay Motivated
Well life is slowly, but surely calming down and I couldn’t be happier about it. I’m starting to actually chip away at my giant to-do list. Woo hoo! I love getting my life in order and I absolutely LOVE cleaning, organizing and de-junking. It is exhilarating to me! Yes, I’m weird. I also started my new “healthy plan” that I talked about in my last post. Can I just say that it feels so dang awesome to be disciplined and on track again!! Yes, I definitely miss my crappy food indulgences, but seriously, it is so much more rewarding to Continue Reading…
I’m 100% All In, Running is Hard and Other Random Thoughts About Healthy Living
Well folks, sadly we’re nearing the end of summer. My kids start school in TWO weeks! I can’t decide if I’m ready for school to start or not. I’m hoping I’ll be able to get a lot more done (and be a more consistent blogger!), BUT for some reason I thought I’d get a lot more done once summer started and that has definitely NOT been the case. Ha ha!!! We’ll see. We had a little bit of drama ’round here a couple nights ago. While we were visiting my parent’s house, my poor baby tripped and fell down TWICE. Continue Reading…
Still Not Having Sugar + My Wonderful Trip to NYC!
Oh my word folks, I have been crazy this past month! I’ve been a travelin’ lady AND I hardly ever travel! It’s been fun, but it doesn’t make blogging easy! Just over a month ago, we went to Moab (Utah) so Kev and some of our friends could run a Half Marathon. THEN, we went to St. George (Utah) and Zion’s National Park with our little family 3 weeks ago. AND NOW, I just got back from NEW YORK CITY with a bunch of my High School friends! Oh you guys, it was the best trip evah!!!!! I’m going to tell Continue Reading…
Stickin’ to My Goals + our Fun trip to Saint George and Zion National Park!
Oh wow guys, I have neglected my little blog! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve intended to update, but haven’t. 🙁 We’ve had a LOT of things going on! It’s been soooo fun, but busy! First off, I want to update y’all on my macro counting/healthy diet/no treats thing that I’ve been doing! I’m loving it! I really do feel like I’ve found a balanced lifestyle that I could live with indefinitely. I love counting macros because it just makes sense to me. It is very logical and makes healthy eating measurable and tangible. There is no guessing Continue Reading…
The Stomach Flu, Birthdays, a Fun Race + I’m Going to Lose Weight!
Well folks, this past week my life and healthy living mojo has been turned on it’s head! First off, we’ve had the stomach flu at our house…all week long! Ya. It entered our home Sunday afternoon and I think (fingers crossed) it might be officially gone now! My poor baby got sick on Sunday. It was the first time he’d ever had “the flu,” so it was so sad to see him so sick! On Tuesday morning, I awoke early with that awful gnawing feeling in my stomach. I was like, “Noooooo!” and was very much in denial for several Continue Reading…
