Finally! I have my chin back!

Well my 45 day challenge isn't over until tomorrow, but my birthday is in two weeks so I am kicking it in high gear! I want to challenge myself to get another 5-7 pounds off by March 2. The day the Lord opened up the sky and say  " LET THIS GREATNESS BE CAST UPON THEe TODAY " and I was born.Yes lightning flash and thunder roared, and my father passed out but all in all : I was born!  Lets do a quick rundown of my 45 day "Get your Chin Back " mission :

I did a detox for the first 5 days, I juiced for the month of Feb, and I worked out! The hardest part was staying on myself to workout. I mean ...... let's be real .... working out SUCKS! Only time I enjoy it is when I'm stressed and I take a walk. I found that if I get up in the morning before work and workout, I have more energy and I get it out of the way. When this chunky monkey, gets home from work she wants to lay on the couch, cook dinner and go to sleep. Now I didn't work out for 45 days, lets be real, but I gave it a good 25. I tried to workout while juicing and almost flat-lined. Since its warming up, I'm going to start back jogging! Wish me luck!

Now with this juicing, I would eat a full course dinner, and on the weekend I let me self enjoy some things. I tried my best to stay away from a lot of bread, and I had my first soda this weekend. Lets just say .. I didn't even get half of it down. Juicing isn't that bad when you find what works. I know now what green veggies I like to juice and what the hell to stay away from. Tomatoes are a NO-FN-NO! Taste like vomit. Celery is really strong, so only use one stick, and adding a orange to anything makes it taste so much better! I only do 2 juices a day and some days, like today, I make a not so good juice , so it's just one today. I will make up what calories I didn't "drink" with dinner tonight.

So, again .. I'm not a fitness guru and over these last 40+ odd days I have had fried foods, pizza, cake, and all that yummy stuff, but I found what works for me. Plus the hunny watches me all the time so just when I cut a "too big slice " he is very much drill sergeant and I put it back.  I was always someone who never thought that I could lose weight, I never saw it really happening to me. So this time I made sure to take photos and actually look back at them to see what has changed. Now I won't lie and say when I look in the mirror I see the slimmer me because I still see that "bigger" me, but I'm pushing on!

Final lost : scale battery died this morning so i'm not sure about my weight
Bust : 2 inches
Hips : 4 inches
Waist : 4 inches
Butt : 2 inches ( anybody want some of this? )
Curve of my stomach : 2 inches ( i measured this from my belly-button to the bottom of my stomach, 4 more inches until its flat!!!! )

Be sure to check out the FB fitness page to join me on my next 45 days!!!

Check On Your Friends

So I had this whole blog written out in the shower about 30 minutes ago. For some strange reason I have been staring at this screen for 10 minutes with nothing to type. First let's talk about me, then we'll talk about you. Many of you do not follow me on social media but I am currently 37 weeks pregnant, still married, with a 20 month old. This second baby was NOT planned and honestly threw me into a world wind of emotions from day one when I found out. You can really prepare everything you need/want for your baby but still not be mentally ready. I, for one, am just now starting to get there. For the past few months I have been struggling with depression. I mean it was really bad. I didn't talk about it with anyone because honestly I did not want to hear any of the following : 1. You need to just go to church and pray about it. - FYI mental health is not something your pastor can scripture away. 2. You aren't the first person to have two babies back to back. - I

If It Were You, Would You Be Proud

I don't really know how to start this post, but ya'll rock with me so just let me have a moment. I love to blog but I am having time management issues with everything going on in my life. It doesn't make me money so it kind of goes on the back burner even though I love to do it. My small home town had a double homicide yesterday. I'm not listing names or locations because I respect the privacy of everyone in that situation. With a sad heart, my mind began to race with thoughts of "if this happened to me, have I lived the life I wanted?" Because it can happened to any of us. I live in Stone Mountain, GA and although my block is very quiet, little to no children on the block, just a few weeks ago my husband and I came home to a road full with police, fire department trucks, ambulance vans and cars everywhere. We still don't know what happened down there. I work for myself. My husband and I started a few businesses together and each of them has there se

Like I hope she not frying NATHAN!! Because baby bout to get burnt up trying to be cute.) and the girl replies "this is wife level package, you can upgrade your girlfriend package by buying a ring. He couldn't be me. STARVE THEN BIH! Listen .... follow me umkay? 1. NONE OF YA'LL (me included) makes enough money to eat at a restaurant everyday where the food is that damn bomb!
