Mamavation Monday – Absentee

Hi all. It’s been awhile since I’ve checked in on a Monday.  No reason other than life has been busy.  My weight loss has kind of taken a back seat.  I haven’t weighed in weeks and honestly, I don’t even want to.

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

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 – 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

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.
