No more hiding…how did we do!?

In the spirit of new beginnings, we are literally wiping the slate clean.  We are moving forward with our highest weight from this year.  Our weight gains have been a little debilitating and this is a great mental boost to help us reengage, stop beating ourselves up and start moving forward! Sara, you’re up kitten!

IMG_6909IMG_6912IMG_6913IMG_6914IMG_6918IMG_6922IMG_6924IMG_6926IMG_6927IMG_6928_2IMG_6929_2IMG_6930IMG_6933IMG_6934IMG_6955IMG_6966_2IMG_6968_2IMG_6976

I literally feel like weight has been lifted.  The pressure of losing 90 pounds and gaining 30 in a year was so daunting.  I really needed this fresh start and to keep my numbers small.  I literally just need to lose the next pound, to make the right decision when I’m eating, to go to the gym!  I have done some serious soul searching this month but what I neglected to do was enter my kitchen to cook or step foot in my gym more than four times!  I am lacking action in a serious way.  I am sick of talking and diving deep.  I know what I need to do.  I need to employ my own personal mantra of DO IT to my own life and weight loss journey.  I have unfortunately romanticized the past…I keep asking myself why was it so easy to lose weight before?!  Why am I struggling so hard now.  The truth is that it was never easy.  What was different before was that I was engaged and chock full of action.  So today I recommit, I stop talking and I start sweating.  I am no longer comfortable not living up to my word and I don’t like seeing my body change in the wrong direction.  So here is to the first pound lost on Season 2 Episode 1 of this journey.  This is not glamorous and it’s fucking hard.  So thank you for being right here with us every step of the way. Xoxo, A girl who found her integrity again. Love you Jenny.

 

Jenny, you’re up bunny!

I love staying positive with this whole weightloss thing………I think I forgot how fucking hard this is!!!!! And how it will forever be an on going balance game.  But I am grateful to be present in my life and aware of all the support in my life.   I am just going to do things my way…..not the way it works for someone else, but what really works for me.   Simple good food.  Roasting and grillng everything!!  I have done so well……I can do it again, not to mention having a new starting point feels less overwhelming and has me excited to pick up again and not think about what I have already lost and obsesse about what I will loss.  Thank you Sara for being in this with me!  Love you.  And thank you Dempsey for the amazing pics love u!!!

 

We couldn’t do this without each other! #snugglebuddies
