I'm a wife, mother & all about family & friends… I have great ones. I’m opinionated. A smartass. A snarky, honest, curious, loyal enigma of a woman with a touch of OCD. I’m all about symmetry, matching & organization. Nothing wrong with that!

Week 4

Wow – I can’t believe week 4 is over – and I am 1/3 the way through this challenge. Every single day I am amazed at how I feel.  I love that my clothes are getting loose – I love that I went to a wedding this weekend and looked good, got lots of compliments…

Week 3

WOW – I just did my 3 week measurements – I have lost 6 inches!!!  WOO HOO…  I’m at 11.5 pounds lost.  And my energy level is OFF THE CHARTS!  I LOVE this stuff (have I mentioned that before?)  I have a feeling that at my 90 day mark, you might not be able to…

Week 2

I just realized I forgot to post an update for the end of week 2…  So here we go… The weight loss has evened out – I have now lost 11 pounds – I’m going to wait until next week to measure… But this I can tell you ENTHUSIASTICALLY… I FEEL AWESOME.  I have great…

How do you know?

Here is a quick share from a quick conversation with my 6 year old: Me:  How do you know that I love you? Him: Duh Mom, you tell me ALL the time. Me:  But what if I didn’t TELL you? Him:  I would look into my heart and I can see it.  You love me. …

Week 1

Ok – so I didn’t mean to lie – BUT – I am NOT going to show you my before pictures this week…  I 100% will show you when I take my after pictures in 90 days! I have been on these shakes for a week now and I have lost 7 pounds!  And the…

Ready, Set, GO!

Deflated.  That is the one word I didn’t use in my last post, but it is the most descriptive of the way I have felt over the last month.  Except for the fact that my son is healthy and doing well – everything else in my life deflated and the stress took its toll on…

Counting my marbles…

I have completely lost my marbles, so counting them is easy – ZERO.  However, the good thing about LOSING your marbles is that there is hope to find them again.  So I’m looking… Here are some things I need to learn…  Never, Ever, Ever declare that the rest of year is going to ROCK, and…

I’ll never learn…

First there was the song a while back 3OH!3′s “Don’t trust a Ho’ – that I didn’t pay attention to – until my 3 year old son started singing the lyrics, so I tried to be more careful about what songs I played in the car…. Guess I haven’t been as good about it as…

My first Video

Ok – 5 Margaritas made me crazy enough to FINALLY do a video – and in the pool even…  I will write a longer blog about the changes that I have I have planned – that I started to implement already – but I figured I would put this video up before I lost my…

Too Cute..

Ok – so I had to share this – For some reason my son has decided this is his favorite song “Dynomite” by Taio Cruz – so I cranked it up the other day and this is what happened   (too big for my site – had to go to You Tube…)  Click the link…
