It is, however, a post where I'm excited to share a lot of what I'm prayerfully pursuing as we begin 2019-and maybe a bit of what I'm excited to leave behind. 2018 just flew by, y'all. It really seems like it was just yesterday I was reading Cultivate, digging into my first set of PowerSheets, [...]
In this series, I'll be sharing my personal journey digging into this tool. Initially I'll be sharing what I discover about myself, how I have grown, and the areas I hope to see God work in going forward. Eventually, I hope to study all the types and how I personally can understand and love them [...]
Sometimes it feels like growth and freedom in one area comes with discontent and frustration in another. This has definitely been true in my mental health/emotional healing journey so far, and I've been experiencing it pretty strongly in the area of my physical health lately. I am LOVING Intuitive Eating and flexible carb cycling. It [...]
Hey Y'all! It's a new month and I am ready with some new thoughts, changes, updates, and resources! First, I'm down five pounds (at least) since my last post nine days ago! Obviously, this is not the thing that matters most, and I'll get into that more in a bit, but it tells me that [...]
Oh, My Lexi. My brilliant, beautiful, loving, fiery, imaginative, friendly (and so many other things) little Bug. I am so very glad that God gave me you. I tell you that multiple times a day, but it never becomes less true. You are, as you've been since the day I found out you were coming, [...]
So, I weighed myself this morning, mostly to see if what I feel is reality, because, if I'm honest, sometimes it's not. It was. The scale says I have gained back everything I lost January-May. Nine lbs that I worked really, unbelievably hard for. I'll be honest, I've been pretty spun up the past couple [...]
So, I'm almost three weeks into expanding my freedom quest into my food and fitness journey, and I have some thoughts. First, I'm not gonna pretend I'm fully on board with everything these ladies say, especially as it relates to weight loss, size, etc-FOR ME. I know that for some, just taking those factors out [...]
My lunch from yesterday-a turkey sandwich I really wanted, except without avocado because they aren't ripe yet, and a bowl of blueberries that I didn't measure-I was still hungry after so I ate a cucumber dipped in ranch-perfect! Some of this is coming very easily to me. I know what foods I like and what [...]
Today feels like a milestone, to me, because a year ago tonight I was the closest I have ever been to throwing in the towel entirely. I spent a couple hours of the night trying to make that happen.(within hours of that I was in the car traveling) I was in excruciating pain, I felt [...]
A couple months ago, I had a major shift in both my fitness and food mentality-and, if I'm honest, my outlook on how I live my life, but that's a story for another day. Today, I'd like to share with you one aspect of that shift-how I choose what to eat. I have tried many [...]
