Six Months Into Myself

October 13, 2014 by Megan 6 Comments

There really aren't words to describe what it feels like to be embarrassed and ashamed of yourself. To hide from the camera and from life. Talking about these feelings is uncomfortable and it feels a lot like a pity party with a side of whining. It is such a complicated emotion, because I was happy and I had blessings all around me, but I wasn't happy with me. I declared this the summer of me. If you are a long time reader, you heard me talk about this often. I was focusing on myself--guilt ...

The Struggle Is Real

October 12, 2014 by Megan 5 Comments

I originally took my Whole30 before photo for myself. I have been taking pictures all along my weight loss journey and comparing them--desperate to see a change. I have bed head, no makeup and am overweight wearing spandex--not my finest moment. In fact, it is pretty embarrassing and nerve-wracking to have photos like this out for everyone to see. I dove into Whole30 desperate for change. I'm just a 31 year old mom of 3 living on one income trying to find my way as a mom, a wife, a ...

The 30 Day Challenge

October 4, 2014 by Megan 13 Comments

In  September, I did the whole30. You can read more about my experience here. It was amazing to me to see the difference 30 days made. I was talking this over with my brother and he said you should do a year of 30 day challenges. He suggested things like 30 days without TV or 30 days of cold showers. My first response was, how about you take cold showers and not watch TV for 30 days? amiright? A few weeks after this discussion I found myself still thinking about his idea to do a ...

My Whole30 Experience

September 22, 2014 by Megan 24 Comments

Where to even start? After three kids and years of marriage I hardly recognized myself anymore. I was surrounded by blessings, but I couldn't fully enjoy them. I mostly just ignored those feelings, because I wasn't brave enough to do what it took to change.  Sometimes when you are overwhelmed and you want something so bad, the exact opposite happens-- you shut down, you do nothing. I'm pretty active on Instagram (come find me there!) and I started following accounts where people where sharing ...

Happy Mom

August 22, 2014 by Megan 6 Comments

Disclosure: This post was sponsored by NBTY through their partnership with Circle of Moms by POPSUGAR. While I was compensated by Circle of Moms by POPSUGAR to write a post about NatureSmart Vitamins, all opinions are my own. I've mentioned several times that this is the summer of me. I'm sure in a lot of ways that sounds selfish. My intentions are anything but. Me in my husbands t-shirts, yoga pants and a top-knot, overweight, out of shape and feeling overwhelmed isn't making anyone's ...
