Today I reached my original goal: 135lbs. I knew a bit ago that 135lb wasn't going to put me where I wanted to be, but that didn't lessen the excitement of stepping on the scale and seeing my hard work pay off. It also got me thinking- for all those people who DO reach their… Continue reading Now what?

Sleep training and teething are a bitch.
I haven't checked in much on here the past week. It was a rough one to say the least. A few nights were incredibly sleepless which led to me being a bitch wife, angry mom, and generally unpleasant person to be around. Sleep training fucking sucks. Any parent out there reading this will likely agree.… Continue reading Sleep training and teething are a bitch.
80 Day Obsession
80 Day Obsession is my newest Beachbody program addiction. For the record, I am NOT a Beachbody coach. To be honest, they probably wouldn't let me be because I do keto. Autumn has made it VERY clear she does not support keto unless medically necessary. I don't know about you, but being fat and miserable… Continue reading 80 Day Obsession
21 Day Fix
The program that started it all for me. If you read my other fitness post, you'll see that I first tried this program out after I had my son. Being a mom and trying to find time to get an effective workout in isn't an easy feat, which is why this program works so well. They're literally… Continue reading 21 Day Fix
I’m good at fitness. Fitness whole pizza in my mouth.
My fitness journey has been a long one to say the least. It's been a yo-yo of programs, gyms, and dedication. When it comes to fitness, I think finding the time or a routine seems to be the determining factor of your success. As we get older, that gets harder. Jobs, kids, family, among hundreds… Continue reading I’m good at fitness. Fitness whole pizza in my mouth.
Long Simmer Beef Bone Broth
Today I threw a batch of homemade beef bone broth together. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get my hands on grass-fed bones, but I did use organic vegetables so I'll call it balance. Next time I will make a greater effort to source better bones. Why homemade? It's so much cheaper to make your own… Continue reading Long Simmer Beef Bone Broth
The proof is in the bone broth
In short, bone broth is your guide to the fountain of youth. Ok, so it may not make you younger, but it will definitely help you age well. It is something I've just started using as of late and I have no intention of ever stopping. In fact, why didn't anyone tell me to use… Continue reading The proof is in the bone broth
My keto journey
Its been more than a year since I started keto. I was 6 months into my pregnancy with my daughter and had been seeing my friend Cristy's posts about it. She has had her own health battles and keto kept seeming to resolve them so I knew there had to be more to it than… Continue reading My keto journey
The scale is a big, fat, lying bitch.
So, I say this under the pretext that I have a scale obsession like most. I get excited when I see those numbers drop and get closer to my goal! Just this morning I took a picture of those three numbers that showed the lowest digits for me in two years. I have an extremely… Continue reading The scale is a big, fat, lying bitch.
The Journey Begins
I suppose a giant "welcome" is in order. First off, let me introduce myself. I'm Kristina. A wife and a mom of two tiny terrorists who are experts at destroying everything. I just turned 30 this year and am starting this blog because my husband told me to get a hobby (as if I don't… Continue reading The Journey Begins
