Weekly Update!

Morning! I don't know about you but I am feeling a little fluffy on this Black Friday morning :)
I have not had the best week nutrition wise but I am fully motivated to make some progress from now until Christmas week!! What about you??

My clean and balance nutrition plan is made for the upcoming week, I plan to get some variety of workouts in next week (still have to map out my schedule though), and I am ordering Insanity MAX 30 on Dec. 2 to make sure I get those abs I want!

Anyway here is a review of my week...

If you plan for success, you can't go wrong! Plan you week out ahead of time. I planned to not have the best nutrition this week and you know what? It's ok :) I mapped out my plan for the month of Dec. and I am READY to knock those goals out of the park!


New shoes make everything better, right?? But seriously, these things ROCK! They are super cute and comfy! Nike TR Free 5.0 Cross trainers. I didn't really need new shoes just yet, but I had a giftcard that I wanted to make sure went to good use!


Always get a workout in on Turkey Day!! It will help speed up your metabolism and make you feel better about stuffing your face lol. I will be getting one in today too!!


YUM! I LOVE protein pancakes with a peanut butter spread and sweet potatoes on the side! This dish is YUMMY, clean, and gluten free!!


And lastly, here is the upcoming week's meal plan! I am determined to meet me goals in December! I want more ab definition!!

It's been a while...

Hello there! It's been a while huh? Um I think about 3 years!! A lot has happened in those 3 years...3 places of work, pregnancy, and mom life! So what's new?? I worked at a small outpatient clinic...didn't like it! Went to an awesome hospital in the city...LOVED it!! Then after having my son took a position at a local hospital...only 8 minutes from home vs the hospital in the city which was 55 minutes on a good traffic day! I found out I was prego a few days before Christmas 2016...yes it was planned. For YEARS, we said NO kids ever! My father died in 2015 and my whole thought process on kiddos changed! Landon David arrived 8/14/17 via planned c section...he was breech! I stressed myself out incredibly too much about sleep, breastfeeding, being perfect, etc AND I suffered from Postpartum Depression and Anxiety! One thing I have learned about Motherhood is that you can plan, but you have to expect the unexpected!! Once I accepted this, my anxiety died down A LOT...
