So, my period has been "trying" to come for about 6-7 weeks now. Or longer. It seems like ages. The past 6 weeks at least, though, I've felt like garbage physically, mentally,and emotionally-well, overall. Some days have been okay in some areas, and awful in others, and right after a workout is always awesome. The [...]

My pre-Lexi jeans fit! The jeans I wore to the doctor's office for that first ultrasound. Heck, I think I wore them the day she was conceived! 😉 I'm a little mooshier around the middle than I was then, but unless something catastrophic happens, it means come fall (when I actually want to wear denim) [...]

Also discouraged. Maybe they go together.

A friend who has recently lost over 50 lbs posted this quote, and while I'm super happy for and proud of her, it's reminded me of my frustration. Yes, my work has paid off, but not at the rate I feel like it should be. I'm gonna get back on the horse this week after [...]

This is me 4 weeks Pregnant (at my recent smallest), 39 weeks 3 days pregnant(the day before labor started), and this past Tuesday. I'm really trying to focus on the positives in this journey. My control freak nature sabotages me because I desperately desire at times-okay, often-to speed things up by eating less, but I [...]

Y'know, I need to go easier on myself. I get mad when I don't do allll the exercise I want to in a day but I forget that 2 weeks ago I couldn't do all of the JMBR workout I just did, let alone cycle and my JMBR on the same day! So, yes, I [...]

No, I'm not taking the week off, I'm just feeling a little off my game this week. Maybe it's because I killed it so hard last week, maybe it's hormones. I've had pretty bad insomnia all week, so that could be it. All I know is I'm pretty much constantly sleepy and it needs to [...]

Sometimes I feel lonely. Not nearly as often as I used to, but sometimes. Often it's brought on by missing someone I haven't seen in a long time or who is far away. Lately it's been from missing a particular friend. She has meant and continues to mean so much to me, though its been [...]

So today has been, overall, a great day. I had a great morning with Lexi, had a great workout while she napped, spent a little more special time with her, and got dinner made early since I have cycle tonight. Lexi is down for a second nap, and I'm dealing with the fallout of the [...]

Make me feel like I can do anything. I was bummed at not working out yesterday, so I did yesterday's workout, today's workout, and cycle class this evening. I didn't do amazingly in cycle, but I finished. I have had a shower and worked my muscles over with the tiger tail, and I think that'll [...]
