Weekly Update!

I had a fabulous week!! I ate clean 100% until Friday. I lost 2.2lbs!!

This time of year is really tough on me. I usually say..."oh well, it's the holidays!" and I eat what I want to some degree. Well, I think this kicked in earlier than usual this year and I gained 8lbs from Halloween to Thanksgiving...yikes!! That is a lot on my 4'11" frame! I am determined to lose all 8lbs before Christmas!!

Anyway, this week I changed it up a bit with some T25, PiYo, and 21 Day Fix workouts. I ordered my Insanity Max 30 Tuesday and am somewhat patiently awaiting it's arrival :)

Here are some pics from this week...

I know for me personally, if I don't start Monday with an awesome workout and 100% on my nutrition, the rest of the week can go down the toilet!


Gotta love some PiYo every so often to keep my flexibility!!


LOVE Shaun T and his ab workouts!!


This was me in my new full length workout leggings from Fabletics. LOVE them!! I was also relishing in the fact that I had lost 2.2lbs for the week! :)


I celebrated by going out for date night with the hubs. We went to Memphis to Buckleys and fully indulged, but I still ordered something a little more on the healthy side :) We left Buckleys and headed to the Showplace arena to watch the NFR on the big screen with some friends. Great night!!!


Here is my meal plan for the next week...

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...
