How I lost 11 lbs in 30 Days

February 9, 2016 by Megan 4 Comments

Many moons ago, pre-baby #4, I did Whole30 and lost 12 lbs. I loved it and felt great. Then the holidays hit. And my birthday. And before I knew it I was pregnant. You can read all about my first Whole30 experience here and what I ate here. There are plenty of inspiring Whole30 Experiences to check out here. I feel like I have so many ideas swirling around in my head about food and weight and body image and I hope I can get my message across. I spent most of my life as the skinny kid. ...

Five Things Friday

June 13, 2014 by Megan 11 Comments

I've declared this the summer of me! Well that sounds incredibly selfish, but it is true. I am investing in myself--guilt free. 1. It started with the braces this spring. I mean, I need them, but I typically wouldn't put myself on the list. I cannot wait to have them off and have straight teeth. I cannot believe how much of a difference there is already. I know I will be happy I did it in the long-run. Lets just say I'm kind of in an awkward stage right now ;). 2. I've also started ...

November 6, 2013 by Megan 7 Comments

Those of you who have been following me for a while, know that I have been struggling working on losing weight. The weight really piled on with the last two pregnancies and it at times feels impossible. But what choice do I have? Do nothing and be fat and put my health at risk? Or do something--as long as something might take? So I am doing something. Halloween and the multitude of Halloween festivities meant lots and lots of treats in our house. I ate lots and lots of those treats, skipped a ...

Just Dance + A Big Milestone

October 13, 2013 by Megan 5 Comments

I have so much I want to tell you friends. Excuses and reasons why you haven't heard from me. Why I stopped paying attention to what I stuffed my face with or why exercise got put on the back burner. None of that matters. Tomorrow is fresh with no mistakes in it. This campaign and this game, Just Dance, got me moving again. It got me moving when I was feeling pretty low and pretty overwhelmed about how much weight I had packed on from the last two pregnancies. I started exercising to the Just ...

When Losing Weight Gets You Down

September 24, 2013 by Megan 5 Comments

It is really easy to obsess over your "failures" and your "shortcomings" when you are focused on losing weight. I know I fall into the trap of putting myself down and obsessing about the one part of my life where I just cannot seem to get it together. It gets to be a vicious cycle. You feel down about yourself, you have negative self talk, you don't feel like putting the effort in because you feel like a failure which leads to more feeling down about yourself, etc. I'm over ...
