Personal update: my babe and I are in wedding planning mode (which is why I have been absent from the blog) and everything is falling together for this July! I’m so excited! My dress has a corset so if I lose a little more weight before the big day (99% sure I will!) I’m set! Eeeeep!!!
~150lbs vs ~135lbs. Getting there :) whenever I feel lazy, bloated, or unmotivated, I compare old pictures to a current one to see how far I’ve come and compel me to keep pushing forward, hard. This girl’s got goals to achieve!
One of my favorite things to do: walk (and/or run) with my little family.
Proud of the progress I made in 2012 and excited for what I’ll conquer this year :) bring it 2013, I’ve got big plans for you!
My little family and I hope y’all had a Merry Christmas!
This is the smallest I’ve been since early high school! Selfie to record that (proud!) and to motivate myself to pick up (&put back down) even heavier things to build these little (but swong) arms up!
So I’ve come a long ways since this. 
counting down til 2013 cause I’m pretty sure if I keep things up, I’ll be exactly where I want to be at the start of the new year. So, so excited that my hard work has been this rewarding; I love the clean eating, CrossFit influenced lifestyle I’ve been living.

September 2011 vs. March 2012
The hardest part for me in this recovery process [getting back into running after a broken foot] is realizing that I’m less fit than I was six weeks ago. I have to be rational and tell myself that when I stop running seven miles a day for six weeks straight, of course my body is going to get a little less firm. I haven’t been burning the calories my body used to and my muscles probably shrank a little bit. But it IS reversable. Instead of being hard on myself, I need to simply ease back into my old routine, stay positive and motivated to get back to where I left off, and then some. I still have an ultimate goal to get to that I can and I will achieve.
