“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…
Never second best
Why? Because I am the best. Working through my progression this week. You literally never know what opportunities are around the corner. I’m shedding the stuff that holds me back. All those negative thoughts of my own self, self worth, comparing myself to others. Gone. I deserve time. I deserve attention. I deserve love. I…
Mindset is everything
I’m constantly saying I need to get my shit together. How about giving it a break and being grateful for what I do get done? With the list of things, we all have going everyday there are going to be days, or weeks, or months that it all just doesn’t happen. I’m not pushing anything,…
No expectations
I was lacking in the inspiration dept; I’m overwhelmed by the enormity of my goal. After speaking with Amy about it, we decided that should be my focus this week. Not the goal, to let go. Letting go of all expectations of myself. So this week, I’m riding it out, letting myself be….
Change nothing, or change everything. Shit is happening!
I’m tired of waiting. If you’ve been following, I have begun an eight-week mindset progression with Amy Arvary. Amy and I have been chatting the last few months about my blog, her work, and where we may intersect. We talked several times about where I’ve been struggling and how I can’t quite seem to…
