Last week of my Vegetarian Lifestyle

This week has been especially hard for me to diet. 

I hurt my back at the beginning of the week and haven't felt good enough to go to the gym. Add that to my cheat day last week and I feel so blah right now.  I didn't lose any weight this week either and that was really discouraging to me. I feel stuck and I probably shouldn't it's only been a month since eating healthy and I have seen a noticeable difference in my energy and strength. But I just feel sick.

The highlight of my week was receiving my trim healthy mama cookbook. I'm excited to get crackin on these healthy recipes (with meat). I'm more excited to reintroduce my body to meat - the healthy way. Chicken here I come!


I didn't realize so many of my friends in Albuquerque and Chicago are on this THM plan. One of my friends from ABQ invited me to the group thinking I would enjoy it. I'm so glad she did because I see all these wonderful women losing weight and finally looking like they want to. It's such an amazing thing to watch someone's story unfold and I feel so empowered and lifted when I read what the plan is doing for them. Another one of my friends, this time from Chicago, is allowing me to borrow the THM plan book so I can read up and really understand the healthy lifestyle not JUST the recipes. I'm so excited. I love trying new things and exploring new ideas. I really am one of those people who will try something once (ask me about my lamb balls adventure).
 
I'm looking forward to starting this journey and finding new delicious recipes. Continue to follow me on my healthy lifestyle plan because I'm still in the game Biggest Loser at work (ends March 24) and I want to be as close to my goal weight as possible by then. I need to lose 36 lbs still.

Free Samples and Offers

I wanted to get this out soon as possible as I know the Holidays are upon us and everyone is looking to save some money this time of year. This post is geared towards parents of multiples but if you have singletons please feel free to reach out to the companies below too for some free samples and offers, but please be aware some offers might not apply to you. If you’re like me then the minute your babies were born you were online looking at deals and ways to save money. I came across a lot of blog posts and articles stating if you contact this company then they will send you this product free. I thought how true is this? So I put them to the test. I took many lists from the internet and combined it into one giant list of baby product companies; I then emailed and mailed each company requesting free samples due to the birth of my twin girls. Below you will find the responses I received. Some companies were great, while others were….off putting. I included coupon codes I found o...

The Dreaded Questions

I knew I always wanted to be a mom.... Even before I knew I would be married. I'm not really one to plan out my entire life. I never made a 'list' on qualities I wanted in a guy. I never had a "dream wedding" planned out. I never planned on when I was going to have kids. How many kids. What their names were going to be etc. etc. Lots of girls do all of those things and I don't think there is anything "wrong" with this but the reason I chose NOT to do any of them was because I never knew if they were meant for me. I never knew if I would ever get to those stages in my life. Even if I did, what if I had planned out my entire wedding and my future husband hated all those plans or had in his head a different way to do things? It's as much his wedding as it is mine - Seems unfair for me to choose everything I want without his opinions.... With all that said, I knew I wanted to have kids I just didn't know when that was going to happen. Occasio...

Married Life - 4 Months In

I t has been a little over 4 months since I got married.  Married life is sort of what you expect. I definitely had to get used to the idea of someone living with me constantly. One of my biggest struggles in married life so far has been cleaning up messes (in my bedroom, bathroom or kitchen) that I haven't created! I typically find paper towels on the counters, clothes on the floor, towels not being hung back up correctly.... At first it would frustrate me! "How hard is it to put things back where you got them?!" or "Why can't you put things where they go!?" - would often be the first thoughts that popped into my head when I came across these situations. Finally when I actually asked my new husband one of these questions he said "Why can't you keep your hair on your head and off everything else?" and "Why is there always makeup powder on the sink?" Point is....I've been doing stuff all along that frustrates him too! Don't m...
