WEigh in day



Alright ladies and gentleman!! It's weigh in day 1 for this Bikini Body Challenge group and I'm actually pretty excited to share my stats. I will say that my measurements are hard to really quantify because i still have nothing to measure them with but visual is still pretty cool.....

This first week was full of all kinds of struggles (as I'm sure you're read) but I started to really catch on towards the end of the week. Best part was that I had enough sense not to over eat at our company BBQ yesterday! It was awesome!.. super proud of me for that one. I will admit that I may have had a couple beers.... so yesterday wasn't my healthiest eating day. But look at me!!!! (I'm pretty sure a lot of the loss is from water weight... i used to have a pretty high sodium diet before and Aunt Flow was in town... not a good combo btw).

Anyway... DRUM ROLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!


So... having looked at these one week results, I think that I will hit my goal and be able to fit into my dress for the photo shoot and also lead a healthier, happier life.

Now if you noticed, I titled this WEigh in day... that would be for a very good reason. I did that because I never would have made it this far without the support of the challenge group, my coach Alex, and my friends. 
Together, we can accomplish our goals. Together we can help each other make good, healthy choices.
WE can do this!

Adult Life

Today is all about not wanting to be an adult!! As my wonderful friend and coach said today, "why can't I just spend all day working out and cooking instead of being an adult!?" Well put my friend. Well put! Today was full of less than fun adult stuff, like getting up way too early for any human being to be even getting up to pee, working 11 hours, running around like a maniac to pick up my 6 year old and feed her and get her to swimming lessons, plus squeezing in my own workout while at the gym, then getting home, putting her to bed, trying to get some bills paid and clean up the kitchen a little, feeding every animal in the house (there are a lot), getting them all to go potty, trying to get more bills paid, rsvping to birthday parties and graduation parties, trying to plan out the rest of the week in order to make sure at least one of the thousands of major projects for the house get done.... I'm sorry, I've completely lost my train of thought because

Jeremiah 29:11

"'For I know the plans I have for you' said the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'" I would not consider myself the religious type, in fact for the last 8 years I have struggled very much with my faith. After hitting a rough spot in my life a few months back, I reached out to a good friend of mine who found God and got baptized into the church and has grown a lot in her faith over the last few years. I reached out to her because I was feeling very lost and alone and I guess I thought maybe the church could help me. After a rough break up we talked again about the tough times I'd been facing and she sent me a beautiful care package with a book (which I haven't read yet but when I do we will chat about that!) and some nail polish, some earrings, some Derby Chocolates (yum!), and a note. On the back of the note read "Jeremiah 29 11"..... I had no idea what this verse said or was about so

Unfortunately, aside from watching CNN as much as possible last saturday, I haven't been able to find credible information in the few spare minutes that I can find to look into the events. I don't know whether or not to fear for our country and our people or be proud of them. Social Media has me more confused than ever! So many opinions, many of which are uneducated. So..... What I do want to elaborate on is my personal view point on life experiences as
