Mamavation Monday – Back To Basics

Mamavation Monday – Back To Basics

I had a bad week.  With eating, with being active.  I am completely shut down this week for no reason, really. And that is why the scale looks like this: But the good news is…..I started P90X today and have a commitment!  After 90 days, if I finish the program, I am going to treat … Continue reading

Mamavation Monday – Time To Refocus

Mamavation Monday – Time To Refocus

Life has been busy. I feel like I’ve been pulled in 100 different places.  And while it is slowly slowing down and I am starting to fall into a schedule and rhythm, I am still trying to get caught up.  Weight loss and my journey is something that I am still trying to “catch” up … Continue reading

Mamavation Monday – Finally!!

Mamavation Monday – Finally!!

A short post to show you all this: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! This week I lost 3.2 lbs!  I am ecstatic! I didn’t lose any inches but I am totally ok with that.  That is going to come.  But look at my scale move.  🙂 It’s going to be a tough week this week.  The kids start back … Continue reading

Fitcation 2012 – The Fun Continues

Did you miss the beginning of my Fitcation adventure?  No fear!  You can read about Day 1 here and see some fancy pictures too. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lolo and I made it to L.A. around 1:00 – way too early to check into the hotel.  We had a plan to meet up with another friend for lunch … Continue reading

Mamavation Monday – Bad Choices

Mamavation Monday – Bad Choices

Monday again and another gain.  I am not surprised for two reasons – I made bad choices this weekend and I am a woman (if you know what I mean).  Bad choices like A LOT of fast food and not Subway.  I counteracted all of my walking by eating horribly.  It’s like I wear blinders.  … Continue reading

Hi all. Do me a favor?  Close your eyes.  It’s ok…just close them.  Now.  Imagine it’s Monday.  Just pretend that it is still Monday and that I am posting this on a Monday. I have no excuse (well, not a good one) for why I am late.  OH WAIT…..we’re pretending it is Monday.  Let me … Continue reading

Mamavation Monday: Moving Along

Mamavation Monday: Moving Along

It’s Monday again.  I failed to post last Monday.  I have no real excuse….I just didn’t. I did take a scale picture though…because I originally WAS going to post. This week was a better scale pic.  🙂 I credit the #2weekchallenge with those losses because honestly, I have not been eating awesomely.  I blame the … Continue reading

#Mamavation Monday: Not Giving Up

Well, it wasn’t a successful week.  And I am not sure why, exactly.  Maybe having the flu last week messed me up? I do know this…..I am not giving up and I am not quitting.  Am I frustrated?  Yes.  But I in this for the long haul and I want to figure out why I … Continue reading

There’s No Place Like The Neighborhood

There’s No Place Like The Neighborhood

Applebee’s holds a soft spot in my heart. It all started by an impromptu visit during a Mardi Gras parade more than 10 years ago.  The restaurant wasn’t busy and we sat next to a window where we could see the floats go by.  Our waiter was Jimmy.  Wait – I know what you are … Continue reading

Genius Boy

Genius Boy

I had a post planned out but I wanted to take this opportunity to brag about my son. Booby Boo has been a character from the very beginning.  He was always a curious little boy and he could make me smile in a second.  Now at 9 1/2, he is still curious and he is … Continue reading
