Happy Mamavation Monday! Yes, I know it’s been OH so long since the last time we saw each other!! I can’t believe I was doing so good and then travel happens (as it always does) and boom! I’m off the wagon faster than your head can spin! This week I’ve got a little video, perhaps how I’ll start doing my check-ins (simply because I’m a narcissist and seeing myself on video is a good motivator.
Let’s start with my confessional!! (HA! I’m not giving it away, you’ll have to watch to see what I’m confessing…it’s nothing big or life changing or anything, so don’t be underwhelmed 
).
I pulled out the treadmill again last night (I had forgotten how much I enjoyed it and what a great focuser it was!)and logged 30 minutes on it, which at midnight was a big feat for me. I stopped running just after completing the Couch to 5K and was a little bummed to see that so much of the stamina that I had fought so hard for had vanished…clearly, I’ll have to work back up to the time I was logging before. Still though, I wasn’t back to the terrible – out of shape point I was at when I started the training, so that’s something I suppose.
So as I mentioned in the video, I have gained 5 of those hard fought pounds back and need to focus a little more on my eating and exercise levels, so I would love for you to share any links or suggestions for healthy delicious recipes in the comments for me to share with my family. I’ll try some of the recipes you guys suggest and report back in a vlog next week!

Good to see you :) lol I don't have any recipes but as far as tips... I try to keep MANY fruits on-hand. Grapes (which I freeze for when I'm hungry for a frozen treat), strawberries, and I HAVE to have cantaloupe... also baby carrots (the sweet ones) and stuff like that. Or I get wheat thins if I want some chips or crackers. I've finally gotten to where I have WILL POWER so that's the big thing is being able to control yourself (which I realize takes time and discipline) and I make a habit of keeping COLDDDD water so I can try to quench my thirst just in case I'm not really hungry when I feel hungry between meals. Good luck in getting to your goals! :) I've gotten WAY more conscientious about my health this year and hope that doesn't change in the future because I've never felt this great in my entire adult life!
