Journey

I have gained more than 30 pounds since I have had my first child.... you read that right, 30 pounds.... not to mention I was too heavy to start.... OY.... I pride myself on being a strong woman!  I am successful in so many aspects of my life - but WHY WHY WHY can't I lose weight???  Sometimes I feel like I don't "look the part" that I try to play in life.... well here goes... I am going to lose weight.  30 pounds to be exact.... I will blog about my journey....

I get a lot of strange looks when I tell people that "you can have everything" I go on and on about how I don't make sacrifices at home or at the office and how I can balance everything - I am now beginning to realize that it's all a joke - because when I talk about having it all at home and at work - I am neglecting MYSELF - while attempting to "have it all" I somehow stopped taking care of me... BAM... until now... let's see if I can keep up my "balance"

So tomorrow morning I am going to take a couple "before" pictures that I will NOT post.... I have also made a couple other goals:

Log ALL food intake 

Prep healthy snacks & lunches for the week

Drink 4 bottles of water before dinner 

Feel good about my choices 

Do not "starve" 

Make good choices

Eat little processed sugar

I will post on here at the end of the night - what I ate and all that....

Here goes!!!

Just WOW

I seriously cannot believe it's been 3 1/2 years since I have written a blog.  I really really loved blogging - it was sort of an outlet for me... So here I am 3 1/2 years later...

Well to catch you up on the most important event of 2013-2016 We had our little munchkin " Harper" 14 days late, about a year and a half later we had another little girl "Kara" and about a year and a half after that we had another girl "Rebecca" - yep.... I am no longer worried about what I bring in the hospital bag... By the time I had Bec - we were like "let's not bring any clothes so we don't have to do the extra laundry when we get home" thank goodness for comfy hospital gowns - and by baby 3 we left literally almost RIGHT after she was born - so we didn't need anything :) oh my, how things have changed...

I still work - which is hard however very rewarding.... I will probably mostly blog about that and balancing life :):)

I must get to bed!

Thanks for reading
