Intention and Purpose

Image
Intention + Purpose = Results  in·ten·tion a thing intended; an aim or plan Learn to pronounce a thing intended; an aim or plan. pur·pose Learn to pronounce the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. Purpose is the object to be reached, or reached for, by your actions. It's the bigger picture. It's the why.  Intention is the specific motion to move toward it. Sounds pretty simple and makes sense to me BUT there are a million different things that get in the way of putting these two simple words into action.... I have had so many intentions of doing so many things in my life the past few years but just couldn't get myself to buy into the purpose.... the purpose being ME.  Intentions to lose weight, exercise, save money, plan trips, blog, end bad relationships, strengthen old relationships, organize life, find balance, pursue different money making dreams, make a podcast, read more books, be in the now, breathe, slow down, blah blah blah

Starting Something Totally New For Me...

Okay it's been awhile... but I'm back...I hope.... anyway I need a new change or something different to give me a jumpstart or new focus that I haven't tried before... so on Wednesday of this week I am going to be starting Advocare... I like the fact that you can eat all day.  I tried to do Isagenix and when I did it correctly I loved it and felt great however I couldn't stick to it and then I would get frustrated.  I'm hoping that trying something totally different maybe I can stay motivated.  For now, I am going to focus on getting through the first 10 days ( the cleanse phase)  I will try to blog everyday as to how it's going and what my day looked like.  I did create a meal plan and a grocery list to help me to stay focused.  I added it here :)  Wish me luck!  Food Shopping   List Canned Tuna 2 dozen eggs Hummus Pistachios Popcorn Brown Rice Arnolds sandwich thins Chick Peas (Garbanzo beans)

48 Days...

So my intentions were there... I started the day off uber focused and ready to cleanse for two days.... I even got on the treadmill and did a quick 2.5 miles... then stress took over and I ran to food for support... Why? I have NO clue.... It only makes me feel like crap and disappointed, however I do it over and over... BUT anyway enough of the sob story that I'll never have an answer for.... Moving on, I have 48 days until we go to Disney!  48 days... and at least 20 pounds to lose... Tomorrow and Thursday will be cleanse days... I refuse to be knocked down...  :)   #healthyliving

Back in Action...

Back in action... Okay I am going to get back into this blog.... I just had my 3rd baby 4 months ago and I am about getting in that zone where I HAVE to lose this baby weight and my bestie has motivated me to get back into blogging :) ... I have about 30 pounds to be at my "dream" weight.. but i guess I should start with small goals... first goal is to get to getting preggo weight which was 163, that is much higher then I would have liked to be, but Brynlee decided she was ready to become a part of our family and that was what I weighed so what could I do but continue to eat up :) So short term goal is to get to 163 and then set a new goal from there.  I was recently hovering around 168-170 but this week was full of lots of pizza, wine and cheese curls so I'm seeing and feeling the difference.  Time to get myself back on track... I am going to try to commit myself to Isagenix starting on Monday.... tomorrow I have a baby shower and a 1st bday party, so to start tomorrow w
