The Weight Loss Fight

This is a tough subject for me, something I never talk about. But, its a new year full of new beginnings and changes. So.....


Its a fight I've been fighting for a looooong time. When Cory and I were dating, way back in the day, I did Weight Watchers. I lost 36 pounds. I was a size 8/10. The smallest I think I have ever been. then something happened that they don't warn you about. (which you ladies should know right off) I dropped all the weight and got pregnant. (apparently losing weight increases other things in your body, which made me more apt to getting preggo... don't ask me how this works its just what I got from my doc) Even after I was told I had poly-cystic ovaries and there was a chance I wouldn't be able to have kids at all. (boy did I prove them wrong.) So anyways, I now have 3 kids and 60 pounds extra to prove that I had those kids. 


So 2 weeks ago I came to the conclusion that something  has got to change  is going to change. I turn 30 this December. OMG I'm going to be 30. So upon that realization I decided I am going to bust ass to make that extra 60 pounds go away. I've recruited my BCF, Deborah, and my moma, Teresa, on this little journey. Deb and I have dubbed it the Project Drop It. We have until December 21, 2012 (my 30th b-day)to complete this project. So far I'm down 5 pounds. I am going to make this happen. This is part of my Big Changes for 2012. 


Wish us luck, I'm sure we're going to need it!

The Blog World

It appears I've been sucked into the blog world. I've always been skeptical about this little giant world of bloggers. I have looked at numerous blogs over the years and gotten many ideas of things to do from them, which I greatly appreciate. So I'm now joining you all in this blog world.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Lauren, I'm 29, and I live in Georgia with my wonderful little family. I'm married to Cory, we've been together for almost 9 years and married for 7.5. God has blessed us with 3 beautiful girls. Bailey is about to be 7, Kaydence and Kenzie are about to be 5. We have 2 fur babies, Sophia our boxer, and Truckee our cat. I was born and raised in GA and wouldn't trade it for anything. I'm southern through and through. Love me some sweet tea, GA Bulldogs football, photography, baking, sewing, traveling, and sitting at the fields watching my girls play ball and cheer.

I cuss a bit, I sing too loud, and I dance like a fool (even when people are looking)... I am the best mom, wife, daughter, sister, and friend I can be. I love my life, craziness and all!


Now let the blogging adventure begin! :)
