Back on Track

April 13, 2018

Happy Friday everyone.  This is going to be a short update.  I haven't been getting much sleep lately so while bed is beckoning, I had to share how my week went. While I'm happy to say I'm back on track, I'm going to continue to set small goals for myself. First, true confession time.  I almost didn't go to my weight watchers meeting this morning.  Last week's gain was scary.  I was almost afraid to weigh in this week.  Luckily,  my wise husband Adam reminded me that I always feel . . .

Ear Candy: My Favourite Podcasts

April 10, 2018

I was late to jump on the podcast train. While on maternity leave, I first started listening to podcasts during late-night cluster feeds and mountains of laundry.  The presence of human voices made new motherhood a little less isolating. As a result, I was hooked.  Podcasts are fabulous resources that have the ability to educate, entertain and refocus your brain.  Not only are they easily accessible but you can listen to podcasts anywhere.  Whether you are going for a walk, commuting . . .

Sunday Check-In

April 8, 2018

Happy Sunday everyone. I hope you had a great weekend.  In my last post, I set a few goals and as promised, here I am to share with you my progress. First, I wanted to get to work early so I could fit in a workout but unfortunately, I did not meet his goal.  Saturday mornings are hard because I'm at work late on Fridays.  I also find working out alone in an empty gym to be a little lonely.  Is that weird?  I would love your thoughts. Nevertheless, over the past few months I have . . .

Fearless Fri-Yay

April 6, 2018

Happy Friday everyone! As promised I'm here to report back on how the last few days went.  But first, a special thank you to everyone who reached out to me in regards to my last post. I had such an amazing response and I'm happy so many people were able to relate to some of my challenges. So.  How did the last few days go? My first goal was to revisit my why.  While my son is basically my why for everything these days, I came up with the 5 op reasons why I'm on this health journey. . . .

Self-Sabotage

April 4, 2018

Self-Sabotage. We've all been there. And it's been happening to me. It started with my birthday.  Why just have one birthday cake? I totally deserve two (to be fair they were small, like 4 servings max, but nevertheless, two). And then came the Halo Top reviews.  What first started out as an innocent curiosity turned into a risky attempt at being entertaining and compromising my progress in the process. And don't get me started on the most recent offense: the discounted Easter . . .
