Learning To Eat Healthy

Lets be honest here!

Eating clean or eating healthy did not in any way shape or form sound fun to me.
I was NOT excited at all about this change in my life and everyone knew it.

It's not that I have always eaten crappy food or that I wouldn't eat healthy food. It is just that well I like pasta and need pasta in my life! Living in a house with a husband who eats like a cow and yet has freaking abs. That sucks! I tell him all the time how unfair it is that he can have the body that he has and not work out really at all. He is just blessed so very blessed to be able to sit there and eat a whole 3 layer chocolate cake and not gain a pound.

As much as I love him..... I kinda hate him for being so perfect as well. lol

So along my journey I have started to change little things about the way not only the way I eat but the way I cook for my family. Has my husband noticed..... bahahahhah NO he hasn't figured it out yet.

Here are some of the things I have made, recipes to follow next week of each of these meals.



The battle with wanting junk food has not ended but oh my goodness I know I am in for a long road.
I am not perfect when it comes to eating healthy but I am a forever work in progress.

My journey will never end but I know that the weight I have lost thus far is proof that if you work hard. You cut of the junk food and you drink your water every day. That you can have the results that you want.

.... Until Next Time! Y'all have a wonderful day!

The Road Thus Far

Okay Y'all I am sitting here shaking and fighting back tears right now.

This ðŸ‘‡ðŸ‘‡ scares the living crap out of me.

I have NEVER gone this far out of my comfort zone in my life!

When I started this journey I told myself that I would never be that person. The person who post pictures of their body on social media.

I didn't feel like I needed anyone to see me in such a compromised position. To see the amount of weight I gained due to infertility, over eating, and depression. Not to count the stretch marks I have gotten from my pregnancies.

I could blame it on the fact that I just had a baby almost 9 Months ago. I could sit here any give you every excuse in the book as to why I weigh the amount I do. ( I have no idea how much I weigh bc I don't own a scale and haven't owned one my whole adult life. )

Yet here I am owning it! Owning that I gained so much weight and became someone I honestly hate! I have only been this unhappy with my life when. I was in an extremely abusive marriage with my ex husband.

I decided to take the picture on March 24th not for the whole world to see. But simply because I wanted to see if there was even going to be a difference in my body. After doing Country Heat for a week. Along with the few days I did 21 Day Fix. ( mostly the 10 minute abs )

I woke up this morning and decided to take another picture. The difference honestly completely shocked me.

I have exaggerated kyphosis and lordosis with scoliosis. My back hurts so bad just about every day but I push myself still. Until this morning I didn't think I had lost weight. I didn't think anything had really changed. But the pictures are proof that I was so wrong.

If you think you can't work out, you hate working out. You're " size " causes you issues so you can't work out. .... Guess what YOU ARE WRONG!

" Stop with the excuses! Because not one of them is good enough! You are worth getting healthy for. Your kids are worth living a healthier lifestyle for. "

^^ that is what I have to tell myself every single day but I still push myself even when I don't feel good at all.

I am not perfect and will always continue to be in progress. If You're looking for a great support system, where you can share the good bad and ugly of your journey comment, email, DM, text me. Start your journey and never look back!

You Wont regret it! I am not saying its easy but it sure is worth it!
