Recently I have lost between 20 and 25 pounds… I seem to have 3 pounds that I just keep going up and down depending on the day. Back in January if you had told me that it wouldn’t have made that big of a difference in my life I would probably have told you that… Continue reading The most interesting fact weight loss has taught me
One month ago I decided to take on a challenge. It was a challenge very different than any I’ve taken on before. I’ve done things to save money, save time, etc …. but I’ve never done one that focuses on myself. I decided over the course of 30 days to practice better self care, and… Continue reading So how did my 30 days go
Oh Monday. I have a love hate relationship with Mondays. I love all the things we do during the week, but I also miss having a few days to get up as we please, or in my case as my small children wake me up. Still more pleasant than an alarm waking me. Monday if… Continue reading Day 10
Today was the day, the day I would test my willpower. Could I conquer chocolate cake? I suppose if this was my biggest challenge of the day life was ok right? I decided I needed a game plan, because I am weak to sugar. Sugar and I go way way back. It’s been my best… Continue reading Day 9
I don’t usually feel like I’m older. I have many days where I still think I’m like 17, maybe 20. However, less than 6 solid hours of sleep is all it takes to remind me that I’m over 30. I woke up happy, usually happens when I spend a night staying up late talking and… Continue reading Day 8
You ever have one of those days where you don’t wake up in a bad mood, but you aren’t really in a good mood either? Totally started my day like this. I have to say, while my DietBet has been amazing in the sense that it really kicked my butt into gear…. I bet money… Continue reading Day 7
Today felt like a Monday. Two snow days where we could get up as we pleased (or in my case when little people woke up) left me resenting my alarm clock. I was glad however that I decided foregoing my morning coffee was not something I wanted to make a regular part of my life.… Continue reading Day 6
You know your a mom when staying in bed until 8am feels like winning the lottery. My 3 year old sleeps late usually, but not the little guy. Between staying up later than usually thanks to his late nap and the time change he slept late. Today was weigh in day for my diet bet.… Continue reading Day 5
Day 4 went better then day 3… and I can thank coffee for that. I couldn’t do it. I’ve done it before, and I could do it if I had to…. but I really couldn’t think of any reason you do it. I love my coffee sweet. I have been using stevia, but was struggling… Continue reading Day 4
Day 3 was a little bit of a mixed day for me. I did try to do some self care, but honestly didn’t feel as accomplished as I had on day 1 and day 2. I did do self care, but it was also day 1 of going back on a restricted diet, and myself… Continue reading Day 3
