First things first, my son ... gulp ... turns 3 on Saturday. Sigh. It's amazing. What a journey. You know I realize that birthdays are a reflection period. I've been looking through picture of Liam what he was first born, and it makes my heart swell. Yes I know it's only been three years, but those emotions are still so real. I hope I never lose that flutter in my chest I get when I look at the picture that was first taken of him, just seconds after he was born. The memory of his first smile, his first step, giggle etc. Yes we have moments where he is so awful we could trade him to the gypsies for a while, but that's all part of the package. Being a parent isn't easy, but Josh and I adore this kid. I'm so proud to be his momma <3
Work is wonderful. I simply adore what I do. I never expected for my love of this industry to grow as the years went on. The more I learn, the more I research, the more I submerse myself into it, the more I fall in love with it. I am so incredibly lucky to have met some phenomenal people who have become great friends. Love love love it.
My workouts .... one word ... INTENSE!!! Let me just tell you, I look back at things I've written, how sore, how tired, burnt out, exhausted etc. None of that matters. I ... love ... working ... out!! I actually get pretty upset and feel very sluggish if I go more than a couple days without working out. And the more I work out the more conscious I'm becoming of what I eat. Yes I absolutely have my days where I hit the wall ... mainly around "that" time of the month. But I'm drinking a lot more water, cutting down on salt and sugars, portions are getting smaller, not eating out as much. Just better choices in general. Thus far I have lost 12 pounds, over 7% of my bmi and over 5 inches off my body. I'm still not where I want to be but I'm thrilled with the progress I've made. I started this journey because I wanted to look better ... I'm continuing it because I FEEL better. <3
