{flirty thirty}

Hi dear friends.

What have I been doing? Turning thirty, that's what. Turning thirty and getting ready to graduate from college {{I did it!}} and preparing for life as a "real adult." I honestly feel really good! Stressed out? Yes. But I feel like this is my time. I'm going to embrace my thirties and believe that amazing things are in store for me.

So, here are some highlights from my retro 80s party! Enjoy.

The Pacman Cake- Thanks Sissy!



The Boys


Haha, I don't know.


Smiles!
Me & Michael having our moment.

 Such good times with amazing friends and family. <3

I just wanted to share this with you, although not related to fitness, let's just keep it all real. I'm ready for this new journey into thirty, and I'm ready to take control of my life again (it has not been easy for me lately & I will write more about some food struggles soon.)

<3 xoxo

{nineteenth weigh-in}



We are so sorry that we've missed a couple of weigh-ins, dear friends! This past weekend I was out of town, but we did manage to do our weigh in, which officially brings us to week 19.

Karen and I [[Megan]] have been maintaining their weight while Yvonne has lost 4 pounds! Look how close she is to the ONEderland! We are extremely excited to see what the next couple of weeks bring.

So much has been happening, and although we've been behind-- and although this post will remain short-- we have a bunch of fun posts coming up soon! If you want to see Meg & Yvonne all dressed up in 80s attire for Meg's dirty thirty, stay tuned!

<3
Meg + Sissies

P.S. Go Kings!

{be the leader}

I have been trying to help a friend of mine lose weight, and She gets all pumped for about a week or two, then just gives up. I always get so frustrated with her for not keeping up with it all. This time was no different, she lost 10 pounds in the first three weeks then said its too hard to keep track of her food, that she is too tired to work out at the end of the day, that she has other stuff to do. I was so mad! I took all this time out of my life to show her how to track all her food, get apps on her phone, and even give her work out plans.. I was very encouraging and helpful, and what does she do, just give up?? It really hurt my feelings... 
     Then I got to thinking.. I haven't been doing what I should be doing either.. I had been eating like crap, not working out and just not caring. Sure I had "good" reasons for not working out as I had an injury, but I could have found some way to work out! I hadnt been eating right, because I started my new job and didnt have the time.. I could have made better choices! So I have realized, I am just like her, I just dont have anyone that is helping me that I am frustrating for making bad choices... So what shall I do now? I shall make the right choices, the smart choices, the HEALTHY choices!
 what are you going to do?
