Recommitting

When I woke up this morning, I had every intention of doing a transformation Tuesday post. But as I was getting a photo comparison ready to post(on Instagram first), it just didn't feel right. I felt like a fraud. Why you might ask? While yes-I've lost 70ish pounds....I haven't lost anything THIS YEAR. After Christmas …

He who has my heart </3

Tell me it’s over Thursday

I'm going to make this short(i think)...as this afternoon has thrown me for a loop. Long story short, I pulled up to Subway and got out of my car. A gentleman said to me, "I'm going to need to move my truck" I just looked at him confused and said... "ok...?" He stared at me …

2-a-days continue!

Happy Wednesday ya'll! If I had to choose just 1 meme to describe how I'm feeling it would be this one.... Tuesday's 2-a-days was a complete success! In the morning I woke up at 4:40am and was able to get a solid 45 minutes in. About 20 minutes on the treadmill, 15 mins on the …
