Easter Sunday

 

This is the first time for us in a while that all of our family was in town for Easter Sunday. Even if everyone was leaving on Easter, we got to spend a little time together.  We planned to get together with our friends on Easter after dropping everyone off at the airport. It's so bittersweet! I wished that we could've had a little brunch all together, but I'm so glad that we got to spend any amount together since we were all running on no sleep.

Days before K and Haidyn dyed eggs for this egg hunt. Haidyn isn't too much of an Easter egg hunt kind of girl, but this year she killed it! We had their dyed eggs out on the hunt and she only cared about hunting those eggs to eat them all. She has no chill.  It's so nice to spend time with family and friends. Can we just fill all our days with them?

K takes NV

We took the first chance we got to bring K to Nevada this past week! She spent the first part of her spring break with us and Jon. An opportunity where we are all together rarely happens so this trip was nothing short of exciting for us. We knew that it would be a bit of a culture shock for her since she's from San Diego, but we also knew that a little different scenery couldn't hurt.

 

The weather cooperated with her stay. She got to experience our "warm" 50 degree weather- even if she dressed like she was going to the North Pole every day she was here.  We planned absolutely nothing for her stay except for spending a lot of time together and it didn't turn out too bad. We went with the flow with her stay. Everything was on the fly, but there wasn't a day that we were bored. Hiking, hipster spots, bonding and shopping topped our to do lists. K saw so much dessert that turned into snow capped mountains. 

Why do my babies have to grow up ? Why tf am I getting so old to have a niece that's almost sixteen? We miss you K! Come back ( especially for Frankie's sake) . We can't wait for your next visit.

80 Day Obsession | Phase Two Results

This phase was extremely difficult for me because of the fact that I took the number on the scale to be more on my progress than anything else. I can't get it through my thick skull the little victories adding up to bigger victories such as being able to get through the damn workout with heavier workouts! The third phase I'm having Waymon help me hide the scale for 30 days so that I focus on my progress of how I feel mentally and physically rather than focusing on my weight . I didn't believe the results I had because I didn't lose any weight and I gained inches, but I feel like I'm gain more and more muscle this phase.

March Meal Prep | Week One

Meal prepping is getting more and more tedious during our busy weekends. It's honestly just a failure to plan on our part because of our busy schedules during the week. All we want to do is spend time together without spending that time in the kitchen prepping! But this week we got it done with a lot of help from the slow cooker. I really should utilize it more often because slow cooking saves my patience. I'm sticking to my timed nutrition from my 80 day obsession program. I haven't been sticking to it because my schedule has been crazy, but this week I definitely will be trying it.

Breakfast - Protein Shake w/ Coconut flakes and Fruit w/ PB

Snack One - Eggs and Turkey Sausage ( Waymon's includes tortillas). 

Lunch - Walnut Shrimp, Veggies and Quinoa w/ Rice /OR/  Philly Cheesesteaks w/ Pepper Jack Cheese.

Snack Two - Carrots w/ Cheese /OR/ Guacamole

Dinner - Protein, Carb and Veggies.

February Meal Prep | Week Four

This is another busy week for us, so the prep this week was easy slow cook recipes that too no time at all! The snow is making me not want to do a damn thing. But can you blame me? 

OUR MEAL PREP

BREAKFAST –  Biscuits and Gravy w/ Bread

SNACK 1 -  Fruit

LUNCH – Kung Pao Chicken   /OR/ Sloppy Joe Bowls 

SNACK 2 – Greek Yogurt w/ Coconut and Fruit
DINNER – 2 cup veg, 1 3/4 cup protein

80 Day Obsession | Phase One Results

I will continue to tell you how skeptical I was about this program. I have no idea why I was so skeptical over it because I've done Autumn's other programs before and achieved such amazing results. This program is so different from the others because it's taking everything I THOUGHT I believed I COULD do and changed it. It's that crazy. At the beginning of this year, I found myself 10 lbs heavier than I was last year before the holidays. The holidays and life apparently got to me. I won't sugar coat it for you all. I was down on myself I hated what I saw in the mirror, the number I saw on the scale and was just down on myself because I lost all of the momentum that I gained over the course of a year. Instead of letting all of that get me down even further, I decided to do something about. The biggest reason I decided to change it all is because I didn't want to see myself like that anymore. I wanted to be the person that loved my body I'm fighting for. Enough of this talk! Let's get to the results of phase one!

Phase one was 26 days of working out and building the foundation for the next two months of this workout!

The pictures obviously don't lie! These results are real! But I feel like the measurements are wrong because I half assed my measurements the first go around. I'm sure that I didn't do them right because I usually have my husband help. I gained more than I lost in inches but I lost pounds! My goal for this program is to get back to my old self and focus of gaining strength more than anything else.
