Yesterday I stepped on the scale for the weekly weigh-in. It was the first time I’d officially weigh-in in 2 weeks and I was very disappointed to see I’d gained 6.8 pounds. VERY disappointed and shocked. I knew I hadn’t lost and figured I’d gained a few over the holidays, but 6.8? Craziness.
Today I weighed-in […]

It’s embarrassing to put it out there trust me, but I need to […]

Good bye holidays! Good bye! (waves violently) I’m back on track and my head is in the game. I’m ready to go. My lunches are planned out for the week. No more baked goods in sight! Not to mention my treadmill is cleaned off and begging to be used for more than a clothes hanger.

What’s your poison? Beer, water, wine? What do you choose when you feel like wetting your whistle?
Do you ever stop and consider just how many calories are in your adult beverage? Well maybe you should. Knowing what you are eating is important and what you are drinking is just as important. While we are trying […]

It’s been far too long since I’ve posted. Far.too.long. And I’m not going to beat myself up for my eating behavior over the past 2 weeks. All I’ll say is it hasn’t been cute. At.all. NOT CUTE.
With that being said, I’m very excited with where I am right now. Not my weight, but in my […]

I am having real problems getting to the gym, not because I don’t want to go- I actually do want to go exercise. The problem lies is the WHEN to go. Between the baby’s naps and mealtimes for all 3 kids, let alone the taxiing of said children to various places, there just seems NOT […]

Although I tried really hard for the first few weeks, I found myself getting too comfortable around the holidays. A little too comfortable. Like gaining a lot back comfortable.
All my dieting plans went out the window and floated around like the little snow flurries we had. They were out there, they just didn’t amount to […]

I’ve been awful and I have to come clean. After Christmas I lost ALL control of eating and drinking. You see my husband and I were childless for a week. Parent vacation right? Exactly. I could not bring myself to only eat at home and not to partake in alcoholic beverages. A lot of them…
