I started my journey then went off track quite a few times. In August of 2014 I decided to go for it again. I started following a paleo lifestyle and doing Zumba. When starting I was at 220lbs. I went to zumba 5 times a week, sometimes going twice a day so I could get in some of the machines. I meal prepped like a crazy person, I loved going to the gym. About 2 weeks for mine and my husbands first vacation without kids I became burned out. I wanted no part of the gym, meal planning or anything. We left to New York on Oct 19,2014, our Anniversary. Over vacation we walked, a lot, 49 miles to be exact. I dropped 3lbs while on vacation, that never happens, or at least to me it doesn't. The holidays came and went, and I maintained my weight. Awww the new year, time to start up again, then I got sick, my kids got sick, we lost a family member, had to put our family dog down, the kids got sick again and I gained a few pounds. Well that brings me to this week. I am at 194 lbs, I am back at the gym and working out, I even ordered T25. I am not going crazy and overboard with planning, prepping and exercising but I am keeping it consistent. I don't want to ever go over 200lbs again.


As it stands I am happy to see the weight coming off. I am going through issues on where I stand with my husband. I have never been jealous but some things have happened and lets just say I feel like I don't hold the same place with my husband as I did before. Emotionally it has been a roller coaster these past couple months. I am determined whole heartedly this time around.

weight loss journey

So I started my diet in Jan. I dont think I was quite ready, well my body was but my mind was not. So fast forward to today, I restarted my journey on Sunday 2/19/12. I am eating right, taking my shakes, and I started doing INSANITY. I am extremely sore just from the fitness test yesterday but I will push through this. There is no looking back. I weighed in at 223 on sunday and am at 218 as of today, my official weigh in day is sundays. I feel great so I know I am ready to keep this up.

Day 1 1/2/2012

So today is day 1 of my new blog. I am Tiffany, a wife, and mother of 3. I have decided that by writing a blog it would help me to stay accountable for my actions, help me improve my quality of life, and to help me become the best mother and wife that I can be. I love my family, and since having our 3rd child he has really completed our family. I will start off with my New Years resolutions for this year.



1st I am a diabetic, I have to get in shape so I can be healthier and kick the diabetes, it's not just because "oh it's New Years gotta lose weight", its "If I want to live a fulfilling life and be there for my kids and husband then I have to lose weight and be healthy" I guess I have been kind of in denial since the birth of my 3rd child 3 months ago.

2nd- I really need to get my affairs in order and quit letting the little things hold me back. I have the potential to do really well.

3rd- I need to learn how to deal with the stubborness, and strong will of my 3 year old, the hard headed, argumentative, pre teen 11 year old, and the needs of a 3 month old all at once, without pulling my hair out.



I will update when I can. I dont have much time for myself as my family needs me for something all the time. I want to start new traditions, take time out for the little things, and just enjoy living life and being happy.
