Schools dismissed early for a *chance* of snow. (I'm not kidding. This is winter in the South, y'all!) And this mama didn't get the message until *after* my kiddo was off the bus!! Thank goodness for awesome neighbors! So once the panic subsided and I was able to speed home, I got to heat up this delish homemade Carrot Ginger Soup with roasted veggies! Oh, and does it hit the SPOT on this cold day!! . . . . . . . . #fitmom #formercollegeathlete #momscanbeathletes #momswhoworkout #pcosweightloss #pcosweightlossjourney #pcos #ivfsuccess #ivfjourney #pcoswarrior #aclsurgery #fitmomof2 #strongmommy #sarcasticmom #parentingfunny #prediabetes #teamfiredup #sarcasticmom  #postpartumbody #pcosfood #insulinresistant #cleaneating #fitmum #fitstrongmum #sarcasticmum #pcosmom #pcosmum #momlife❤️ (at Charlotte, North Carolina)

When it comes to working out, I absolutely love to try new moves! I love to challenge my muscles and my body in new ways! So you can imagine my excitement when I started A Little Obsessed, the precursor workout program to 80-Day Obsession, and found out that nearly everything I do in these workouts are moves that I have never tried before! One such move: an inchworm ... but with a resistance loop around my wrists! Abs, shoulders, EVERYTHING on FIRE!! Give it a try! 30 seconds leading with your right, 30 seconds leading with your left, for a total of 3 sets!! . . . . . . #WorkoutWednesday #fitmom #formercollegeathlete #momscanbeathletes #momswhoworkout #pcosweightloss #pcosweightlossjourney #pcos #ivfsuccess #ivfjourney #pcoswarrior #aclsurgery #fitmomof2 #strongmommy #sarcasticmom #parentingfunny #prediabetes #teamfiredup #sarcasticmom  #postpartumbody #pcosfood #insulinresistant #cleaneating #fitmum #fitstrongmum #sarcasticmum #pcosmom #pcosmum #momlife❤️ (at Charlotte, North Carolina)

FOOD FOR THOUGHT Did you know: that the raspberry is a seriously AMAZING superfood? I'm sitting here researching an article for a major health mag and writing about the all-powerful raspberry and wanted to share some cool research with you! Per research in The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, study participants who consumed 2 cups of raspberries at breakfast reported being more full and satiated than participants who ate similar calories but no raspberries for the same meal. What’s more, both obese individuals and those at a healthy weight who consumed 2 cups of red raspberries at meals saw a significant decrease in postprandial glucose (glucose levels after a meal), which was accompanied by less insulin, which suggests raspberries improve insulin sensitivity in those with pre-diabetes and insulin resistance. So eat up those raspberries, people!! They're not only great at keeping you full and helping with your insulin levels, but they also are chockfull of antioxidants! . . . . . . . . . #fitmom #formercollegeathlete #momscanbeathletes #momswhoworkout #pcosweightloss #pcosweightlossjourney #pcos #ivfsuccess #ivfjourney #pcoswarrior #aclsurgery #fitmomof2 #strongmommy #sarcasticmom #parentingfunny #prediabetes #teamfiredup #sarcasticmom  #postpartumbody #beyourownboss #pcosfood #insulinresistant #healthyeats #kidfriendlyfood #cleaneating #fitmum #fitstrongmum #sarcasticmum #pcosmom #pcosmum (at Charlotte, North Carolina)

Mama got her hair done today! But the biggest thing to note is that I am wearing "skinny" jeans. Y'all, I do NOT wear skinny jeans because for, like, ever I felt like I look like a stuffed sausage. And while there's still a HUGE part of me that feels sausage-y, I've decided to embrace my junk in my trunk and ROCK IT. Because all that matters is that I feel good and, you know what? I've been working hard and I feel fricken amazing about it. . . . . . . . #fitmom #formercollegeathlete #momscanbeathletes #momswhoworkout #pcosweightloss #pcosweightlossjourney #pcos #ivfsuccess #ivfjourney #pcoswarrior #aclsurgery #fitmomof2 #strongmommy #sarcasticmom #parentingfunny #prediabetes #teamfiredup #sarcasticmom  #postpartumbody #pcosfood #insulinresistant #cleaneating #fitmum #fitstrongmum #sarcasticmum #pcosmom #pcosmum #momlife (at Charlotte, North Carolina)

I always sort of feel badly for my friends who are constantly complaining that they're hungry while I'm over here trying to figure out how I'm gonna finish all my food!! LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO BE HUNGRY, Y'ALL! Why be hungry when you can eat like THIS!! . . . . . . . . #fitmom #formercollegeathlete #momscanbeathletes #momswhoworkout #pcosweightloss #pcosweightlossjourney #pcos #ivfsuccess #ivfjourney #pcoswarrior #aclsurgery #fitmomof2 #strongmommy #sarcasticmom #parentingfunny #prediabetes #teamfiredup #sarcasticmom  #postpartumbody #pcosfood #insulinresistant #cleaneating #fitmum #fitstrongmum #sarcasticmum #pcosmom #pcosmum #momlife❤️ (at Charlotte, North Carolina)

#MotivationMonday I wanted to post this today because I'm coming up on three years of following these at-home workouts and nutrition. THREE YEARS of making my health and fitness a priority so that I can be there for my two little girls, my husband, and myself!! The pic on the left is me, 4 weeks postpartum, after baby #2. I was the heaviest I'd ever been. I felt enormous. I was depressed and dealing with SERIOUS baby blues. And I didn't know how I was going to get the weight off considering breastfeeding never got the weight off with baby #1 so surely it wouldn't for baby #2! (It didn't btw!) So I decided to try something totally new. I finally decided to try these at-home workouts, try this new approach to nutrition, and go ALL IN. And by 4 months postpartum, not only did I lose all of my pregnancy weight, I had ABS! Like real, defined abs!! The pic on the right is from last week. Not only have I kept the weight OFF but at age 38, I am in the BEST SHAPE OF MY LIFE thanks to these workouts, this nutrition plan, and, more importantly, the support and motivation from the challenges I participate in and run!! If you feel stuck, if you feel like you've tried everything, if you feel like NOTHING WILL WORK, sometimes you have to give something new a chance. Had I not taken that chance, I may still be the sad, lonely, depressed mama you see in the first pic. The first step is ALWAYS the hardest. But it will be worth it! . . . . . . . . . #fitmom #formercollegeathlete #momscanbeathletes #momswhoworkout #pcosweightloss #pcosweightlossjourney #pcos #ivfsuccess #ivfjourney #pcoswarrior #aclsurgery #fitmomof2 #strongmommy #sarcasticmom #parentingfunny #prediabetes #teamfiredup #sarcasticmom  #postpartumbody #pcosfood #insulinresistant #cleaneating #fitmum #fitstrongmum #sarcasticmum #pcosmom #pcosmum #momlife (at Charlotte, North Carolina)

Chocolate chip spinach muffins for my littles!

Do you ever just feel stuck in a rut and then one day you wake up and you've gained 5 lbs. and don't know how the hell you got there? That's sort of where I've been the last couple of months. Sort of humming along, working out, but not totally dialed in with my eating. It's life, we get off track. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Where you hop on the scale and are like, "Holy, sh*t. How the hell did THAT happen?" . . . . . . . #fitmom #formercollegeathlete #momscanbeathletes #momswhoworkout #pcosweightloss #pcosweightlossjourney #pcos #ivfsuccess #ivfjourney #pcoswarrior #aclsurgery #fitmomof2 #strongmommy #sarcasticmom #parentingfunny #prediabetes #teamfiredup #sarcasticmom  #postpartumbody #beyourownboss #pcosfood #insulinresistant #healthyeats #kidfriendlyfood #cleaneating #fitmum #fitstrongmum #sarcasticmum #pcosmom #pcosmum
