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,…
Crispy bacon
“If you don’t order your bacon crispy, you’ll never get to enjoy it. If that’s what you want, you have to use your voice to get it.” -Amy Arvary I love where these sessions with Amy take me. We’re both deep thinkers and it’s nice to have someone to talk to without judgement. That quote…
It’s a feeling I’m after
Although Wednesday is my official weigh in day, I’m trying something new; daily weigh ins. It’s been keeping me in check the last two weeks. So I am happy to report week two, I am down another 2 pounds, bringing my October total to 4 pounds! One pound at a time, one day at…
Getting to maintenance
“The root of all suffering is attachment” -Buddha I’m in a constant state of organizing and going through stuff, is everyone like that? I’m an excellent maintainer – I say it all the time “if I could just get myself to maintenance, then I’m good”. This applies to all areas of my life, from weight…
Work hard
Determined not to give up! I’m not about to let the past year derail my progress. It’s all about working hard and staying focused. I had an excellent workout yesterday, super sore today! Apparently September was PCOS awareness month – who knew! I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2005 after 18 months of infertility. The…
Making progress – weekly weigh in
It’s just after 5am. The baby has been sleeping terribly for the past four nights, we’ve got major teeth coming in. Poor thing. I’ve been up a lot with her at night and then up early in the morning every day. Even with the lack of sleep, I still feel focused. I’ve never felt this…
Yummy
Just a quick hello as the children are climbing the walls 🙂 I was a magician in the kitchen yesterday morning, prepping for the week ahead. As the cooler weather sets in, we’ve been craving some comfort food. Every few weeks I like to use up what we have in the house, I call…
