My Inner Struggle

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….

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…

What a day, oy! I’ve been struggling for a few weeks; I can’t seem to get my head in the game. I feel distracted. So this week I began an eight-week progression into a new mindset. Hypnotic progression just helps give you clarity and focus, I know, I know what it sounds like. For me,…

A picture says a thousand words. I love that we were looking at each other the moment that this was captured. When my older two children were this age, I didn’t want my weight status documented – anywhere! Now, I can’t stop taking pictures! I want my children to remember me, and I want to…

As much as I’d like to think it, I can’t will anything to happen. If I could, I’d have everything I wanted; the body I want, the hair to match, kids who aren’t constantly bickering, and the bags under my eyes would be nonexistent.  The list goes on. I’m a pretty intense/passionate person, I was…

I love that song, by Gavin DeGraw, every time I hear it I turn it way up.  What’s that saying? Some days I can conquer the world, and other days I put laundry in the oven.  Yup, pretty much. Tomorrow will be better!   Every morning, we get a chance to be to different. A…

  I broke and cried the ugliest cry this morning. I tend to carry a lot on my shoulders and I just couldn’t anymore. I’m overwhelmed. I slept terrible last night (or didn’t sleep really). I did my respective drop offs, came home cried out my ugly cry and jumped in the shower. We all…

Today reflected a large amount of questions, thought, and opportunity. We had a morning here, let me tell you.  Woke up late, unfinished homework from the weekend, missed the bus…spilled breakfast you name it, it happened.  While I was on my now drop off rounds (since we were so late) a thought popped into my…

While my main focus with this blog is weight loss, it involves your entire life.  I’m a mom with three kids, two in various activities. I don’t have the luxury of just dropping everything for the gym and focusing on how many lettuce leaves are on my plate.  I’m busy, as we all are. My…
