My name is Lauren and this is my journey to losing the weight that I've been carrying around for far too long! I've struggled with my weight since I was a small child but have never tried to really take control of my weight problem until I have gotten older. I struggled through college to eat healthy and workout but was constantly being challenged with going out and having fun with friends, I wasn

't dedicated mentally or physically to losing the weight. Since I have graduated from college and started working full time, I finally feel like I had that epiphany that woke me up from the day dream I'd been floating around in for so many years! Although I've attempted several times to lose weight and keep it off, I began this weight loss journey in January of 2013 when I joined Weight Watchers with my mom and sister. I struggled in the first several months of the year but finally got the kick in the butt that I needed and kicked it into gear! I have lost almost 50 pounds as of now and hope to lose another 50 in the next six months! I already have an amazing support system and they have gotten me to where I am now! I lost the majority of my first forty pounds without as much exercise as I should have been doing, so my main goal for the new year is to kick it up with the cardio and weight training! I hope to inspire many of you and hope you will help keep me inspired!!

Day ✌🏼 being in office & happy that it’s the last one for a while 🤣 being in all day meetings on site is grueling when you’re used to being fully remote!

September is officially a LOW SPEND month 💸🙅🏼‍♀️

Not a no spend month because I still have bills to pay, groceries to buy, birthdays to celebrate & a life to live 😂 But I’m cutting out the mindless spending, impulse purchases & all the little “I clearly need this” purchases that add up WAY too quickly.

I made myself some rules, and for the next 30 days we’re sticking to them. 🫡

Who wants to do Low Spend September with me?! And what would be on your CAN’T BUY list? 👀

It’s time to stop saying “but I might wear it someday” 😂👗 We’re trying on EVERYTHING and deciding what actually deserves a spot in my closet. Y’all are officially on the decision committee, so tell me — KEEP or GO?! 👀 Part 1!

My OG followers have to remember the crazy meal prepping I used to do 🤣 Meal prep was one of my tools for success during my 100lb+ weight loss and I feel like now is the perfect time to get back into it. Work has gotten so busy that I barely have time to make something, let alone take a full lunch break, so I’m taking it back to basics and meal prepping lunches for the week!

I used to love sharing my favorite recipes with yall so I’m bringing that back, too! Starting strong with one of my old classics… ground chicken teriyaki stir fry 💚
It’s so simple and incredibly filling!
1lb ground chicken
8oz pineapple tidbits
1 red pepper (diced)
1/2 yellow onion (diced)
4-8oz sliced water chestnuts (diced)
5 tbsp veri veri teriyaki sauce (less is you want less sweet)
2tbsp pineapple juice
1tbsp cornstarch (mixed with water)

It’s been a year since I said goodbye to my sweet boy, Buxton, which is incredibly hard to believe. I feel like I didn’t even process losing him because of the chaos and compounded loss that would follow the next 6 months. But, I got to spend 11 wonderful years with him and he helped me through some of the hardest of times in adulthood. I imagine going through the heartbreak of losing my mom would’ve been a little softer if I had him by my side still. But nothing brings me greater joy than knowing they’re together up there 🌈

Nothing like looking around your house and realizing you simply cannot live like this for one more minute 😂
2 hours, a little Fresca, and a whole lot of “what do I do with this?” later… we’re back in business ✨
