New adventure for me...and you, too??

Over the past two, yikes, almost three years I've been working hard to lose weight and get fit.  It's actually almost turned to an addiction for me...watching what I eat, using my Fitbit to see how active I am and how many miles I've walked.  I've lost and kept off right around 20 pounds, depending on the day, LOL.  So, I decided after seeing how good I can feel, that I want to help others feel the same way.

In March, John and I started doing T25, this is a 10 week program broken into two- five week segments.  It was tough, but we made it!  We were both shocked how much it helped w/ balance and overall health.

I've just gotten the 21 Day Fix for us to tackle next.  It's a three week program that focuses on exercise along with portion control and clean eating, something we can all benefit from!  So I will update every so often w/ new ideas, tips (good and bad) that we learn and just overall success we get from the program.

If you have questions or want more information on these programs, send me a message.  I'd love to help you along the way to get fit and feel better!!

Fruit and veggies, oh my!

We are so lucky that we have a local co-op here that we can get super delicious fruits and veggies from.  Tonight was pick up night and we have a fridge full!!  We always get a great variety and each time there is at least one new item that we don't regularly buy so we get to experiment and try new things!  So far we have had spaghetti squash, brussel sprouts, mashed cauliflower (sub for mashed potatoes) and this time we get to try baked sweet potatoes!  The boys love fruit, we get fresh veggies, so it's win/win for our family.  Our local organization is http://www.communityhelpingscoop.com/basket for anyone close by, or maybe you can search something similar where you are!  Definitely take advantage if you have one in your area!

So much happening!

Wow, another school year is about to wind down already.  After all the snow days I didn't think we'd ever make it to spring, although we are still not out of the clear yet!

Cooper is working his way through second grade and still amazing as ever!  He is busy with baseball, practicing hard to play for either the Cards or the D-backs, depends on the day!

Tucker is learning like crazy in pre-k.  He has learned so much this year, and is more than ready for kindergarden next year!  He is crazy about sports, reading, numbers and dates (calendars, not girls yet!).

Annies Homegrown Mac& cheese cup

I received Annies Homegrown Real Aged cheddar cheese cup complementary from Influencer.  I needed a quick lunch one day at work and it was perfect.  Easy to mix and heat up w/ limited supplies available to me.  The cheese powder was a bit hard to mix up, so stir it up good!!  It tasted great and hit the spot...but then about 20 min. later I started to get sick.  It made for a long afternoon at work, and sadly, I won't be trying this product again :(

Dr. Scholl's® For Her Comfort Insoles

One of the first products I've got to try complementary from Influenster is Dr Scholl's for Her Comfort Inserts.  I'm not a girly girl, so I don't even own a pair of heals to try these in, but they were super comfy in my tennis shoes!!  Many days I walk over 5 miles and with the inserts in, my feet felt so much better by the end of the day!!
