Your vibe is contagious… check it sister! 🤘🏼

I wish you could see the BEST change from this… who I am as a person, how I feel as myself and what I now appreciate and get out of life…

I started this journey SEVEN years ago wanting to reach a number on the scale… so much that I printed it out and hung it on my fridge in hopes that it would stop me from eating so I could reach that goal.

I was miserable. I had no idea what confidence was. I was my biggest mean girl. Zero appreciation for the littlest/biggest things in life. Negativity consumed me.

And to me the saddest part was that I was a mom living this way.

I’m forever thankful for my rock bottom moment… where I was actually READY and WILLING to make changes vs just wishing and hoping.

A plan, a community, a goal and no plan B attitude forever changed my life, in SO many aspects.

Today my two girls and I will cook a nutritious breakfast together (most likely eggs over sweet potato hash), play a few games, do a little girl talk, press play on BOD and BODi, speak positively to one another, spend some time outdoors, probably a long walk to the water, and maybe a bike ride after. We’ll make and film our TASTY TUESDAY, and we’ll probably relax and cuddle together at some point, because it’s one of our favorite things to do. The current puppy cuddles and kisses are a daily bonus too!

The LITTLEST moments, yet they have the BIGGEST impact on our lives.

I’m living as the mom I always wanted to be. And I’m forever thankful that I SAVED myself.

Changes are worth it! And as hard as they are, remind yourself that not changing is even harder. Pick your hard. ❤️

A good beginning makes for a good ending. ✨

MOM TO BE —> 8 YEARS OF MOTHERHOOD and my biggest takeaways:

• Taking care of you IS a part of taking care of your children

• They will act JUST like you, so practice what you preach

• Life never slows down, so stop waiting for better circumstances

• The more you normalize your health being your responsibility, the more they will too

• Whether you want it or not, THERE’S LOTS OF UPS AND DOWNS

• Focusing on ACTIONS > results will get you farther towards being your best

• The goal you have currently won’t always be your goal

• Good health is lonely; and you need friends who want good health too

• Pregnancy IS a reason to start taking care of yourself; don’t want till it’s over

• Your journey doesn’t have to look like my journey and what works for me doesn’t have to work for you; support health habits!

• Movement is POWERFUL

• Food IS fuel, stop trying to survive on an empty plate

WHICH DO YOU RELATE TO THE MOST??

Some people search their whole lives for a relationship like ours, not realizing we didn’t find it… we created it. ❤️

Another DAY ONE because health never stops needing your attention.

I actually started my journey (many many times) not even thinking about MAINTAINING health. My focus was always a quick result, mostly on the outside.

Glad we’re passed those days and I’m here for the HEALTHY HABITS now… for me, for my kids and for YOU to be inspired! 🤘🏼

My girlfriends and I just started a 20 minute workout program, 5 days a week and were committed for 4 weeks. Crazy to think that most have never completed a commitment like that. 🤯

Don’t be one of them! 😜 Still time to START! All I gotta know… do you have BOD??

Drop a 💙 if you already have BOD and drop a 🤘🏼 if you don’t.

Envision your life being in the best version you see for yourself every day. This is how you manifest positive things into your life. ✨

If you’ve added a bike to your home gym… 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼! I hope you love it just as much as I do!!

I’ve found a few basics that I recommend adding that have helped make my rides even more enjoyable, and I’m sharing them in my stories today! 🤘🏼

If you cycle, drop a 🚲 below! If you want to get into cycling, drop a 🙏🏼!

Headed to Nashville for the weekend! 🤩 Come help me pick outfits in my stories! 🙏🏼

Also, any must see/do/eats while we’re there??

Taking care of yourself is part of taking care of your kids.
