This Month Wishes

We need to get a truck load of rocks and finish up a couple places where rocks need to go, even though rocks are a pain because our lovely Stormy likes to take all the rocks out into the grass. I also need to do a lot of weeding!!!

Lose 4lbs by june 1st.
I finally broke my 200 mark, i am officially 199/198 :)  I have been working on my weight since November when i was 227lbs. Can't wait to continue my weight loss journey.

My weekly wishes!

Drink lots of water.
thanks to Ricci, i won her giveaway and started the 7 day plexus slim. I need to drink about 100oz of water daily, thats tough but i am doing a pretty good damn job! 

No fast food.
I feel like when i eat like crap. So my goal for the week is not to go out to eat, especially fast food, just cook and eat at home, that is the reason for all my food in my kitchen haha. 

Get all my school work done
I start week 8 of my 11 weeks this semester, so ready for a week break. I always make a goal of getting work done before the weekend so i can enjoy my days with Tevis and or Delaney. 

Finish Delaney's/guest bathroom!
SO when we moved in last June, Delaney's bathroom that's also the guest bathroom was brown. It needed some TLC. I decided to do yellow because its Delaney's favorite color, and had a peace theme shower curtain. Yeah it didn't last long obviously. I am re-doing it AGAIN. Will show you pictures next weeks link up

We Can Wednesday!

Hello out there, anyone out there!

Posts from me are few and far between, i loved blogging i still do it is just hard. Especially now being so far outta the loop and have lost most connections with other bloggers, its hard to post and no one interacts with ya, ya know? I want you all back!!!

I gotta remember to do this FOR ME, not for anyone else. Blogging is my way out, to be me and have fun and start relationships again. I miss my blog and I know it misses me!

So We can Wednesday was started a while back for me and my girl Erica @ LoyalRUN to give updates on our weight loss or give and receive advice/encouragement, it was also a place to stay accountable and tell everyone our goals for the week.

So my goal for the next 4-5 months is to lose as much as I can in order to feel my best for my BIG DAY! Getting married October 11th, 2014! Save the date cards for my guests were sent out yesterday!
Made by the lovely Sarah

I have been so bad about reading blogs, luckily i follow a lot you awesome bloggers through IG and i found a blogger who is selling plexus slim products, she was doing a giveaway and i went ahead and entered and WON the 7 day challenge. Ricci @ Imperfectly Ricci  <---- read today's post here!
Go read her blog and find out about Plexus Slim! She has had great results from it so far, i am excited to try it our for 7 days, and i pray i can get a months supply and get over this plateau of mine. So that's my We can Wednesday, is to GET FIT FOR MY WEDDING and how Plexus slim will hopefully help me get the results I want!

Lady Luck

We Can Wednesday!

Hi Blogging world!

Have you ever taken a break from blogging and want to start back up but its SOOOO hard?
That is where I am at in my life right now, i want to come back and blog, and meet new people make connections and have that support I had before I stopped blogging. If its meant to be it will happen!

So Last October, Tevis and I got engaged!

WE FINALLY HAVE A DATE SET!!!!

We will be getting married in the beautiful state of Tennessee October 11th, 2014!
I have 5 months 1 week and 4 days until I marry my best friend.

So I am going to make a list of things i need to do fitness wise to be as ready as I can be!

1. More water everyday
2. Start exercising again, i need to get moving and be active anything will help me at this point
3. Start logging my food again
4. Start cutting my pop intake AGAIN... ugh.
5. No late night snacking unless healthy

Those are just some things I need to work on. Small changes can make a big difference. I am 50lbs from my goal weight I think i can get there with the right attitude, just have to have the will power like all these other fine ladies to flipping DO IT!!!!

Hope everyone has a great Wednesday! Get moving, get off that couch do something today, you'll feel better about yourself.

We Can Wednesday! I AM BACK!!!!!

WOW. I have not posted since March 5th.

I absolutely hated being out of the loop and hated losing all connections with everyone. So many people in the blogging community so I understand its easy to let go of people and i got forgot about. I am finally feeling like I can get back into posting. I am always on Instagram, twitter and Facebook So for those bloggers i follow i see your everyday life still and it makes me smile 95% of the time. I will re-gain my relationships back I am sure in no time.

Hope you are happy to see me back!

I will make this short and sweet, gotta start back somehow right?

Erica and I loved the idea of posting weekly of our goals, advice, and anything health or fitness related. Its a good CHECK in for us.

So when I stopped blogging well over a month ago i went on a mini vacation and i told myself my vacationt o see family, i was going to stop worrying about calories and just enjoy a break. Well soon as I got back my fiance, Tevis, was admitted into the hospital for 5 days. Obviously food wasn't a concern of mine. I got him home on the road to recovery and figuring stuff out and BOOOOOM he got really sick and got admitted for another 5-6 days. I will explain all that LATER. Just know he is home and doing well and back to his old self.

So needless to say March was terrible month for us. Stress level played a role in me not gaining 502lbs.

I was avid about my health from November to March...i have not gained anything thankfully. Just maintaining. I know i have lost Inches because I am not in a size 16... WAHOO. Happy Dance! I was all the way up in a size 22 at one point! So now that things are slowly calming down again i am trying my best to get back on the right path, I have a goal of losing 10lbs by june 4th!!!
first size 16 pair of Capri's. I did the happy dance! 

I am so thrilled i felt the need to POST on here, i feel its a good sign i will be back in full force! 
I miss you all! 
Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday!
