Back to the gym today! I didn’t have a lot of time so I needed to keep it short but work hard so it was worth it. Something is far better than nothing. As much as I love working out, about halfway through I’m hating it. Talking myself into finishing it because I’ll kick myself…
Good things are going to happen
A Sunday well spent brings a week of content. A new week. A fresh start. A clean slate. Who cares about yesterday? I kind of love Mondays. Everyone is back to school/work and I’m left to hit the ground running. Maybe it’s a little selfish, but sometimes I just need to be alone to get…
Do it now, don’t wait.
You might not have tomorrow. It’s all about the experience! I am creating my future right now – regardless of circumstance. I can’t afford to fly to all the places I want to see but I am certainly capable of exploring everything I ever wanted to that’s right in front of me. I’ve never been…
Month 1 down
Weigh in: It’s been a month since I’ve kicked myself into high gear, and I’m happy to report I’m down seven pounds! Mom life: The pic above was from yesterday. Most of that was accomplished at my own house during the day. I was cleaning and organizing like a mad woman! I accomplished even more…
My voice
I really dislike talking politics with the people I care about. I’m not a big fan of creating conflict, and I’m pretty passionate about my own beliefs, it can get ugly. :/ Mostly, I’m not a fan of having someone else’s opinion and/or beliefs forced on me. That goes for everything. I am entitled to…
Meeting Expectations
I always crave excitement. I live in a constant state of distraction, having no set schedule. I am not typically a creature of habit and enjoy doing something different all the time. That being said, I play “let’s make a deal” with myself at least 10 times a day, talking myself into completing my…
Explore the ordinary
Yesterday morning I’m sitting on the train staring at a blank screen. I think I’m starting to like this. I have time to go over in my head what I need to be doing, I set reminders for all sorts of stuff, and think about what I can do every day to make myself better. …
All or nothing
New training starts Monday, until then it’s prep time! I don’t know if it’s because my bday is coming up…I value this as a fresh start even more than New Years. It’s the perfect deadline for completion of goals, and to forge ahead with new ones. I have one goal set to reach by my…
Be you
I don’t know what it is exactly about Halloween, but I love it. I always have. As a kid, maybe I could say the candy had something to do with it?! Not so much now…I love dressing up and getting into it. This year while thinking up ideas I was trying to think outside the…
It’s all worth it
What a week! It’s been super busy, and this weekend is packed with all sorts of activities. Weigh in: Going down. Down another 1.4 pounds this week, bringing my three-week total to 5.4 pounds. A year ago I was within three pounds of my pre-pregnancy weight. After going through all these changes this past year,…
