Wow, what a month!!!!

It's been over a month since my last blog. There has been so many wonderful things going on. I couldn't be more happier. What better time to write another blog, right?

So for those of you who don't know I got married on August 12th. It was a beautiful ceremony and amazing reception. We had a lot of friends and family come in from out of town and tried to spend as much time with them as we could. I feel so blessed with the support and help we received the 11th and 12th.

One of my bright ideas for wedding decor was to buy my own chair covers and table clothes. It was cheaper than renting and then I can sell them back after the wedding. Not to bad of a deal... That was until we got to the venue on Friday. We had like 8-10 people all there helping us iron all the fabric. We had 14 round table clothes, 6 rectangular table clothes, 128 chair covers and 128 chair sashes. Needless to say it ended up being a timely ordeal. I am so thankful for all of the friends and family that helped us out. You didn't have to but you did and it just makes me feel so gratful to have such amazing people in our lives. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts!

Ever since I was a little girl I dreamed of what my wedding would be like. I think every little girl does. The whole ceremony and reception was spot on from start to finish. It was like a real fairy tale. I couldn't be more happier with the way things turned out.  I'll be the first to admit I told him I loved him first and knew pretty quickly this was the guy I was going to marry. So I've had some time to dream over the last couple years 😃.

Starting Over

Well, lets see starting over sure could cover a wide range of topics. However, I am going to be focusing this blogging site about my journey to my health and fitness. Man, there are so many haters out there and people who are going to say, "Why is she doing this? Is she just wanting attention? How pathetic!". That's okay, the gene that many of us millennials have says I owe no explanation and should say, "screw it, who cares!". But the compassionate part of me feels I owe most of you an explanation. So here it is... All I am asking for is support and encouragement as I go through this journey. It's not easy and lets face it this isn't my first rodeo.  Now with that out of the way. I want to talk about how I am back in this situation again. Many reasons really with a good majority of them being what most people call excuses. The number one reason is actually medical. In November of 2014, I started having Achilles tendinitis. Yes, this is treatable as lo...

Turning 30

Wow! Has it really been 30 years since I was born? I'm sure to my mother it feels like just yesterday still. I've decided what I really want to do is start a blog and really stick to it. Let's see what this blog looks like by next year. Hopefully, it's not like my last one, and I drop off the face of the earth. 😉 Speaking of my last post... I've still been trying to eat healthier, and I've been going to the gym about once a week. I feel a difference, and it helped me be able to get the top part of the dress tied all the way. That means no alterations for me!!! I've realized that it's really hard to find food without sugar/carbs, so I feel kind of lost in this world of prediabetes. I'm supposed to eat more protein but as I often joke with Bryan I think I might need to be a vegetarian. I couldn't care less about meat. Now don't get me wrong, I enjoy a nice steak but let's face it... It's nearly impossible to make a delicious steak at...

Yes I can!

In 2014, I worked really hard to lose weight and finally got down to my lowest weight. I maintained that for awhile until I hurt my ankle and things started getting stressful at work. I found comfort in the food I ate and felt instant gratification. Needless to say, due to my unhealthy eating habits and lack of exercise brings me to my highest weight. About 8 months ago I found out I was prediabetic, and I tried so hard at first to get the weight off and nothing worked. Eventually, I gave up and reverted back to old habits. I remember looking at photos of when I was smaller and feeling down about myself. Honestly, I was just being plain negative... Today that ends, I am no longer going to look in the mirror and feel sorry for myself. I'm going to change, and I know I can do it. I had someone remind me today that instead of looking at those old pictures of myself and feeling bad I should see that it is something that I can and will do. I've done it once, and I'll do it a...
