About Me

Brad and I are so excited to be welcoming Baby Oz October 26th, 2012. This year we will be celebrating our 3rd anniversary as a family of 3. We have no idea what to expect on this journey to parenthood, but look forward to sharing as we go. I look forward to having this blog as a way to look back on all the exciting things happening this year. My friend Ashley's sister did this and i think it is a great alternative to posting everything on facebook...not everyone needs to see/read all that! Please, feel free to read and comment as we go. We haven't done this before, so any advice/ tips are welcome! Thanks =)

2 Weeks! Better Late than Never

So I have a wedding coming up and have been less than happy when I see how I look in pictures! I know I run all the time but my diet has been non-existent! In order to get my booty in the best possible shape I have decide to hit the gym and the diet hard over the next few weeks...and hopefully turn my ways into a better/healthier lifestyle! I have started working out on my lunch hour and the two days I get allergy shots on my lunch I do a workout DVD at home. Pretty simple  :) I am still getting 2-3 runs a week in because I have to keep in shape for shoreline. I have an eggbeater omelet for breakfast and to get my me I fix, I have been adding banana peppers, tomatoes, jalapeƱos, onions, green peppers but sadly no cheese! Even though on a low carb diet you can have cheese I am cutting it out to get the best results possible. I typically order these from work but this is one u made at home. 
Lunch is hard - I do a shake and a single piece of grilled chicken! If I workout on my lunch I do the chicken before and make a shake for after! It works and I have been full until I get home for dinner. 
I like to do chocolate with almond milk and a scoop of peanut butter - add ice and blend! It is too yummy :) {thanks Christine for getting me hooked} I cook dinner for the family - mostly chicken and just make them sides and cut the carbs out of mine! Lots of chicken and green beans for the next few weeks! I am using rubs for the chicken to cut the carbs you get from sauces and beading. 

You know it isn't a night in the life of mamma oz without a glass of wine! I have been getting the skinny girl wine that has just 100 calories in 5oz! How perfect is that...not to say I never have more than one serving. I use my aerator  on it all the same - if you don't have one get one or befriend me and I will get you one as a gift some day lol...totally my go to gift for all :)
 Hope everyone's week is off to a good start! We had a wonderful weekend and I have a LONG blog post coming with tons of pictures from our long weekend in Indy! If you read about my week last week you know it was MUCH needed!!! Cheers to a better week and some sunshine....oh and getting skinny too :)

  1. We use lots of homemade rubs and seasonings but Mrs. Dash ones are awesome because there isn't any MSG. That shake is my favorite too..except I use water (cuts the calories even more) ;) You are going to look smoking!
