All my life I've had pretty terrible self confidence. Even when I was a young teen with a fairly small figure I was never happy with how I looked. After getting married I gained over 20lbs, at 151lbs and 5'3" I felt disgusting. So when the Mr was called away to spend the better part of the past year in the sand I decided to do something about my self image and my health. I started following the Paleo style of eating and doing a mixture of P90X and Insanity. I dropped down to 125lbs by the time we were reunited 9 months later! Now we've gone on vacation and after a crazy amount of food, alcohol, and sitting around I've gained about 5lbs back and lost some of the muscle I worked so hard to get.
So now I'm getting back on the wagon. I'm hoping to settle around 120lbs with muscle, mostly I just want to feel good in my clothes, I'm not overly concerned with the number on the scale. Right now I'm concentrating on building more strength to start Crossfit with the Mr in a few months, I'm a little scared but also super excited!
You'll find all kinds of healthy recipes and workout tips here, I hope I can help others find their way to a healthier lifestyle as I continue with mine!
