Change your Perspective, Change your Life!

Perspective is everything when you are trying to make positive and health changes in your life. Doing your best to focus on the positive and the things you did right daily is super important! When we over analyze things we tend to stand in judgment of everything and everyone. So I have found its best to relax and let go. Jesus can handle everything with out us holding on tight to all the strings. When we hold on too tight, it's too easy to miss all the good and beautiful moments that surround us. Changing your perspective can drastically improve your health and your life!

How to get MOTIVATED when your not feeling the LOVE

Some days your just not gonna feel like working out, drinking water or eating right. Those are the days you have to push a little harder and speak some truth to yourself. Do I want to do this today, "No". Will this help me, "Yes". Will being consistent get me to my healthy goal faster, "Yes". Enough said... I have found speaking some truth to yourself, asking yourself some questions about why your struggling really helps when your having a crummy day. Its been an important part of my healthy journey to identify the stumbling blocks. Sometimes we allow others to interfere with how we feel, sometime we just feel out of control in general or just have a bad attitude towards life and circumstances. So the questions come in super handy to identify the route problem, so you can get a handle on things and make some positive choices for yourself. Today I had to ask myself some tough questions. And I came to the realisation that I was not the one in control o...

Dear John Letter to my Scale...

Dear scale, I'm so sorry but I have to break up with you. I used to hang on your every word, and value your opinion, but lately I really feel like you have been with holding important information from me! All you seem to do is discourage me and my friend's!! You never tell me how much muscle I have gained, how much fat I have lost or tell me awesome I look in my pants. However you'll be happy to show me how big my butt has gotten and make me feel like an elephant! So today I am parting ways with you. I know its difficult, but you will be ok. In all seriousness my recommendation on the scale is to hide it or get rid of it completely! It doesn't paint a accurate picture of what is actually going on inside your body. It can't tell you all the awesome changes your body is undergoing every minute of the day. It can't tell you if you have lost fat or gained muscle. It can't tell you how amazing you look in your pants and it can't show you the love you deserve...

My PCOS Journey

Frustrated, anxious, exhausted, unbalanced, bloated... These were just a few of the things I was feeling after baby #2. Some of the things I was feeling were not under my control, my daughter didn't start sleeping well until around month #10 and my PCOS symptoms were in full gear again. However I was determined to focus on what I could change, like making healthy choices and being consistent daily with fitness, nutrition, reading my Bible and staying focused on the positive. With the aid of my accountability group I was able to restart my healthy routine I had obtained before Kloe came along. I would definitely not have gotten as far as I have today with out them!! Since baby #2, I have lost 25 lbs and A LOT of inches! My lower half has shrunk incredibly! I become strong enough to run a half marathon, something I thought I would never do. And I continue to help others make healthy changes daily too! If you have been feeling like I was after baby #2, message me. I understand and ...
