Even though I haven’t written in a while, I definitely want to remember what we have going on right now (especially what little Maddy is up to!). Maddy is running around and babbling very fast in her own language. She definitely knows what she is saying and gets very frustrated sometimes when we don’t understand…
Even though I have not been blogging my diet and exercise updates as often as I did in the beginning, I am still going as strong as I was when I first started in November. Guess what? I made it to my pre-pregnancy weight last Monday. Wahoo! But, I am definitely not stopping here. My…
I realize that this post is late. Maddy turned 7 months old on December 30th! She is such a cute little bugger. She definitely knows what she likes and what she doesn’t like. She is a happy baby 99% of the time. But when something makes her mad, WATCH OUT. She’s MAD! She also does…
Well here ya go, my workout/diet update #5! Is it just me, or is Pinterest, Facebook, EVERYTHING flooded with fitness and diet stuff? It’s awesome! Although, I know it will go away in a few weeks. Which is sad. Making a resolution and then forgetting about it doesn’t seem very meaningful to me, but I…
So…did anyone feel like this over Christmas? This was me. I was on such a good routine before Christmas and then I totally failed at my diet. And exercising. I took an eight day break from exercising and eating right. Last Thursday, I started my workout routine again and eating right. It was really hard after…
With the recent tragedies in Colorado, Oregon, and Connecticut, gun control has been a popular and controversial topic recently. After viewing different people’s opinions, I decided to write my own down as well. Those who know me well know that I would not classify myself as a democrat or a republican. I have strong views…
Well, I was hoping my next blog post of Madelyn would be her 6 month pictures that we got professionally taken. But I’m still waiting on those! It’s only been 2 weeks (and she told me it would be a few weeks), but I am just impatient. She was so good during her pics, I…
Tonight is a rest night from exercising. Thank goodness! I try to exercise 6 days a week and it usually ends up being 5 days a week. I had my husband take pics of me recently and I compared them to my before pics. HOLY.COW. If you want to talk about motivation, that was it. I…
There are a few blogs I follow that are not close friends of mine. One is Pioneer Woman (her recipes are the best!), Our Best Bites, a decor blog, a fitness blog, and a blog called “Middle Aged Mormon Man.” I only started following “Middle Aged Mormon Man” a few weeks ago, but I can…
Well I am on week 5 of my weight loss journey. So far, it’s going really well. I am on track with my weight loss goals (actually ahead of my goals), and it’s been so motivating. And guess what? I fit into my pre-pregnancy pants. No, they do not fit as well as they did…
