After a long week of 2 workouts a day, I decided to ease up just a bit this week and only do my after 5 workout instead  (PMS and not feeling well was a factor) I’m still on track though! I haven’t gained any weight, but I haven’t lost any either. My clothes fit better… Continue reading Week 2

We started a weight loss challenge in our friend group beginning of January. It is so much easier to diet when the people you mostly eat/drink with also have to eat vegetables and make their bodies hurt. I weighed in at 191.6 on January 9 and today I weighted in at 188.2! That’s 3.4 lbs… Continue reading New Year New Me

2016 sucked for everyone I am now convinced. It was just a plain crappy year. Too many celebrity deaths, too many med changes for my anxiety/depression, and too many emotional eating nights. This year has a lot going for it already. March we are going to Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic for a week… Continue reading 2017 Update

Yesterday I started the 3 day Shakeology Cleanse that looks something like this: Weigh In: Monday Morning. 6:30 a.m.  194lbs Most of this was from eating/drinking everything I could get my face on at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival. My day started out pretty normal, 2 tea bags of Green Tea in my 20 oz mug,… Continue reading 3 Day Shakeology Cleanse Day 1-1.5

Wow, I cannot apologize enough for slacking off for almost 6 months. No blog posts, not updates, nada. Sometimes life just takes you places and you don’t have time for much else, ya know? Excuses aside, in all actuality I haven’t really been up to much. We purchased a house and close at the end… Continue reading 6 Month Hiatus?

Hey all! I tried something new after being fed up with sitting at 186 for my weight.  21 day fix + P90x.  I’m in a support group (you know, the ones that have you add a post workout selfie and your dinners) and I seem to lighten the mood a bit. My post workout selfies… Continue reading 21 Day Fix Experiance

Being quite busy after my vacation, I did not find time to update the blog until now.  I know what you’re thinking; she slept by the pool every day drinking pina coladas, catching sun while basking in the most relaxing time of her life never wanting to come back. I too thought this would be… Continue reading Cancun Adventure

So here I am still stuck at 183 but something has changed, I’m happy. Something just clicked in my head  and I realized how unbelievably blessed I am and I need to stop beating myself up for things. I feel more toned and in shape even if the scale hasn’t moved. I leave for Cancun… Continue reading Cancun T-Minus 2 Weeks

Christmas and New Years came and went while my birthday (January 3rd) loomed in the foreground. For my 29th we did a video game themed party which included all of my favorite games, my characters and amazing fun shenanigans. It was such an amazing time, our place was packed with friends. Almost all of the… Continue reading Birthday Party 2016

2 month post op tummy tuck update. Here I am today weighing in at 183. Not the weight I’d like to be of course. I’ve been working out playing racquetball (see my racket in the background?)  The poofy stomach is not tummy tuck swelling, it’s “I need to lose pudge” fluff. I started doing Thrive… Continue reading 2 months post op & Thrive Experiment
