Weekly Update!

So last weekend was not my best with nutrition. I ate mostly clean but not the right portions. It happens and it's in the past. I cleaned up my diet this week and shed some extra pounds and that yuck feeling this week! I was able to increase my weights with the Upper Body workout that I am doing too! I have always been a slacker when it comes to increasing weights as you go :( so I am determined to work on that this year! I want more toned muscles and it's not going to happen if I don't increase my weights!


Here is one of my dinners this week. It's pork tenderloin cooked in the crockpot (http://dianafreyaldenhoven.blogspot.com/2015/02/clean-crockpot-pork-tenderloin.html), roasted
asparagus, and raw sweet peppers. By the way, I hate bell peppers! I have tried and tried to like them, but I just don't. I decided to try these sweet peppers this week and fell IN LOVE!


I cannot believe that I am more than halfway through Round 2 of the 21 Day Fix Extreme! This was right before my workout this morning!


I got my professional pictures back this week and I really like them!! Below are a sneak peak of them! By the way, this is Echo. She is due to foal anytime!! Can't wait to see her baby this year!

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...
