Y’all, I had big plans for my postpartum body. I planned out a year of workouts to get my body back to a state it’s never been in – super fit, toned and in single-digit pants. I was going to be a hot mama and I was going to be the fittest bitch on the …
Most breastfeeding moms I talk to mention the struggle they have with wanting to lose weight while also maintaining their milk supply. This, by far, has been the hardest part of breastfeed (once we made our way past latching issues). Women are constantly under pressure to look a certain way and to lose the baby …
Breastfeeding and weight loss go together like peanut butter and jelly, at least according to anyone who claims to have known a mom who breastfed. “The weight will fall right off” they say. Right, ok. Sure, you burn more calories producing food for your baby – you are still feeding two people. But, the rumor that …
We’ve all heard the big lie … well at least those moms who opted to breastfeed their babes. You’ll burn crazy calories. The weight will melt off. Yeah. Right. Well, I suppose this was kind of true for me, at least early on. I was 10 pounds below my pregnancy weight when I went back …
Despite my goals and plans to stay healthy and active during pregnancy, I did not stick to my plan. I gave into cravings and ate all the cupcakes and cheeseburgers I wanted. In spite of this, I only gained 14 pounds … basically, all baby and pregnancy weight. I do not know how this happened. …
Sometimes really terrible ideas will randomly sound completely genius. Like when the president of your company and your boss decide to start a half marathon training group.

It’s been a while since I checked in … not sure if any is reading or following along here, but I didn’t want to oversaturate with the daily posts. But, I have been plugging along and pushing play. I am in my second week of T25 and my fifth week of 21 Day Fix – …
We are just 13 weeks away from summer! Which, is just enough time to kick it up a notch and get ready for shorts, tank tops and swim suits (eek). Starting on April 7, I will be hosting a challenge group with T25 and 21 Day Fix – you choose your program and get me …
21 Day Fix round 1 is complete as of this morning! Woo, my first complete (start to finish) program … TurboFire I made it to day 60something before derailing. But, my razor sharp focus has kicked in and I am ready to tackle round two and T25. Yep, I finally settled on my next program …
Day 19! What? Just 3 more days of 21 Day Fix? Say it ain’t so! I am loving the strength I am gaining every single day. I feel stronger, I have a smidge more energy (gotta get more sleep!) and I am doing better with the eating plan. I cannot wait until Sunday when I …
