I Want My Body Back

I'm happy to report that I am at my pre-baby weight!  Actually, I'm a little less.  Currently at 160 pounds, which puts me between a 6 and 8 depending on cut.  My ultimate goal of course, would be to get down to 150 and lose this little baby pouch I got going on in the mid-section.  My tenth anniversary is coming up and I bought my outfit last year while I was pregnant (talk about OPTIMISM).  I still haven't tried it on yet, but that's because I want to make sure I'm at the right size. Anywho, while in the gym working on my anniversary body and catching up on my youtube subscriptions, I came across these two vids that make me want to amp it up a bit (especially my diet).  The first video concentrates more on excercise and the latter more on eating (which is what needs a bit of help).  The exercise vid is mostly what I was doing before having my surgery.  I'm back at it again and saw some new moves that I will incorporate in my routine.  For Shameless Mayas video:I'm not saying that you should eat exactly like her, but I personally found some things in her fridge and pantry that I've been meaning to try.  The one thing I noticed is that you hardly saw any hardcore carbs in her kitchen. I think her video is great for those who don't like to hit the gym.  Please note that diet and excercise do go hand in hand.

As a PCOS'er, carbs are to be limited in my diet, but it is SO hard.  I am hypo-glycemic and carbs sustain me. The thing is to eat the RIGHT type of carbs (if it's white, it aint right). I've also been trying to limit the amount I ingest. Again, starting August 1st, I'm going to take it up a notch.

When Life Hands You Lemons

My heart and mind was really set on composing more posts for this blog, but the last few months have been a bit rough.  Let me still say I am BLESSED, but honestly the events of the past months had me wanting to hide under a rock and stay there forever.  I've had an ovary removed, my baby got sick and wasn't eating, I refinanced my home to lower my mortgage and had to pull the down payment out of the clouds and I'm leaving my job at the end of the month due to irreconcilable differences and to raise my daughter. Oh, last Wednesday, my husband ALSO had surgery on a delicate area of the body (spine).  I mean c'mmmmmon! You know what though...I'm still alive! Still in my right mind! Still praising God for the good and the not-so-good. I declare that the second half of this year will be twenty times better than the first. I claim profound favor from this day forward in every aspect of my life! I'm preparing to walk into my PURPOSE!
