Happy Friday my loves! This has been another busy week for me! Between work, going back to working out everyday, AND physical therapy, my counseling appointment and baking…I am ready for a nap! I am so happy that it is Friday! I am feeling good, even though I am tired so I am so thankful for that. Life gets busy for all of us, but it is how we handle it and keep moving forward that counts. This Friday definitely called for something cozy…but lets be honest eveyday I choose something cozy hehe. This sweatshirt is my absolute favorite. It is not only made from the softest material on earth, but super comfy AND super cute! The lace up detail on the back is soooo cute! I also bought this in white because I love it so much. It is also on sale right now so I say treat yourself and go pick one up! We all deserve a little treat every now and then right?!? I am also linking to one of my favorite brands of jeans, which also come in plus size! I find that these worked for me when I was a little heavier as well as
So you fell off the wagon. You were doing so great with your healthy eating, working out, drinking all of your water…and then something just happened. You kinda sorta found yourself having days, weeks or even months where you went a little off plan. You had a lot of parties, gatherings, found you had no time to cook or were eating out every night. Or maybe you were out of town for work or even on vacation. Whatever the reason, you are now…here. The scale went up, your jeans won’t button and you are really upset, discouraged and feel like you failed. You dont know what do, or how to fix the problem. I felt this exact way several times along my journey. You are not alone! I get it. We are doing great and then..life happens and we find ourselves slipping back into some old patterns. For me, surgery really threw me for a loop. I was unable to workout for weeks…months…and was sitting at home. I was bored. I felt tired and weak. I was a little upset and angry at myself. To be honest, the urge to binge out
I cannot believe that it has already been one year since my first skin removal surgery. One year ago today, on July 28, 2016, I was walking into the hospital. I was nervous, scared, excited, and happy. I knew my life was about to change. I just never realized how much it was about to change. Having my skin removal surgery is the best decision I could have ever made. It is hard to really talk about the final result, since I am still a work in progress and still need several more procedures. But I can 100 percent say with absolute confidence that the decision to have my excess skin removed was the best thing I could do for myself. A lot of people have different opinions on this…and that is ok. Everyone is different and you can think and feel whatever you want. I just wanted to come on here and share. It is so crazy to think that this was one year ago. Time really does fly by. I feel like last year I was counting down the months, weeks, days until I would have this surgery. And not too long ago I was counting down the months,
OK guys, the time has come! It is my absolute favorite sale ever! It time for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!!! If you don’t know what this is, it is a HUGE sale that Nordstrom holds where they put some of the new items and pieces for fall up, and at highly discounted prices. The sale is first open to card holders for early access, but is now open for everyone! Prices will go back up to original pries starting on August 7th…..So make sure if you want to shop, you go ASAP. A lot of things sell out quick so make sure if you really want something that you pick it up fast! Last year, I was not really able to shop the sale too much, although I did order a few things online, and well…this year I find myself in the same position. I did however manage to go into stores this year and take a little look around during the early access…and they have so much good stuff!!! If you didn’t know last year around this time, and the time of the sale, I was recovering from my first skin removal surgery due to losing over 300 pounds. This
