tanner and i recommitted to our nutrition plan. i have to be honest, we would cheat. i LOVE pizza. he LOVES mexican food. we just couldn't avoid it for a minute there...
but we are doing a 90 day challenge... no cheating. 100% clean eating and NO cheating.
i would post our meal plans... but i have to tell you they are pretty boring. besides our amazing shakes, we have chicken, rice and greens every other meal. woo!! haha. but one thing i have noticed, our grocery bill has DROPPED a ton. i mean like $150 worth. how is that even possible??
anyway, i love that tanner and i are on the same meal plan... it makes life about ten million times easier. i can prep all of our food in less than an hour. AMAZING! it makes me happy.
so i will be posting progress pictures for you all. :)
we went to los angeles a little bit ago for Herbalife stuff. which as usual was fabulous.
tanner was able to really get clear on why he is involved in herbalife. let me tell you, it is very inspiring. that man i tell you makes me more happy to be married to him everyday.
anyway... not only did we have an amazing training, we were able to do SO many fun things while we were there. if you know tanner and i well, we do not get to go on "vacation" like ever. so thanks to herbalife we were in california.
first we went and saw my cute friend, she took us to this INCREDIBLE bakery. i forgot what it was called, but it was so good! then we went to the hollywood sign, it was such a pretty view. one thing i learned, california is pretty... but i'm positive i could not live where there is that much traffic!!! goodness. i felt like our whole trip was in the dang car. ha. we just did so many fun things, a year ago i would have never done something out of the ordinary for me... but i was doing new things!!! i tried sushi... man was it delicious...
i think one of the best parts is... i only had an almost panic attack one time. thats really impressive for me. ;) i was positive and happy the whole time, i didn't even fully realize it until now. i love it. i can't express how much my life has changed. i'm so thankful.
i also learned a really fantastic thing from one of the speakers... he talked about getting out of a "funk"
i loved to hear that even someone so successful and so happy still has those yucky moments.
you know what he said? recognize it... and as soon as you do... write a list of what you are grateful for. seriously. it helps. i know it sounds so simple.
you know what i did? i sent it to tanner in a text. i think that helped even more.
i just remembered where i am now and what i am building and becoming. when your head is on straight, everything goes better. :) (thanks andrea for the notes.)
one thing i have been thinking about lately too is how much i love my house.
tanner and i are avid house hunters. it gets pretty bad. we know one day we want a single family home, but we always seem to get caught up and want it in this exact moment!!
i was thinking today, we have only lived in our town home for about two years... three years in july. whoa.
but i was thinking, this house really can be everything we are looking for. i mean, its a big big house.
so rather than looking at other houses i'm going to look at ways to make our house a home finally. we need to finish the basement. we will finish our office and work on the nursery. ;) i think what i'm really super excited for is our patio. it'll be so nice. we take our location for granted for sure. i mean the hoa fees are pretty ridiculous, but we do get so many things from it. so i will start posting pictures of things we work on too!!!
lots of improving will be happening this year
and i CAN'T wait.
i used to be terrified of change.
now i'm so excited i can hardly stand it.
well.. thats pretty much what has been on my mind lately.
and of course how proud i am of all of my clients. i know i know i gush a lot about them.. but one last thing... i LOVE these ladies. i love talking to them and seeing a glimmer of hope in their eyes. that is the biggest thing i can give them.
ok wait... lets back up a bit. i love my men clients too. i had one of them thank me for everything. seriously... weight loss or even weight gain is a very emotional thing. i love that i can be so connected to these people at such a crucial time in their lives. its amazing what feeling good can do for you and your whole life. i really am thankful everyday for the people who have come to me and trusted me. you guys are inspiring. i want to be the best coach i can possibly be for you guys. :)
ok ok i'm done. ;)
xo.
