lacking motivation...

laundry needs to be done.

floors need to be cleaned.

puppies need to be trimmed.

groceries need to be purchased.

guest room needs to be made.

weight needs to be lost.

meaningful posts need to be written.

shower needs to happen.

pajamas need to be taken off.

hair needs to be done.

face needs to be put on.

what I am doing?

I'm on Pinterest.

laughing at things like this,

and this,

and this,

Healthier me starts....

...right after I finish this bag of chips.

Alrighty.

As I mentioned here, I am unsatisfied with the way I have let myself go since being married.

I lost almost 20 pounds before the wedding.

Well,

I gained it all back,

and then some.

No, I'm not pregnant. 

No, I'm not sick.

It's totally my fault.

Not exercising.

Not eating healthy.

Sodas. Sodas. Sodas.

People of the blogging world, I need you. 

I need help.

I need advice.

I need ideas.

I need motivation.

I need encouragement.

I need recipes.

I need money. 

(I kid, I kid.)

I'm starting off by cutting down my soda consumption.

Last time, I quit cold turkey.

Hello, 5 day migraine.

This time, I'll start by one a day.

Then maybe every other day.

Then once a week.

Then never!

Also, I'm getting back into a routine with my personal trainer.

aka XBox Kinect "Your Shape Fitness."

She's hardcore and I always feel the burn.

Recap:

Cut down sodas.

An hour a day with my trainer.

And you.

I need you.

Mini Messages

Our first picture together. This was about 4 years ago. When phone camera's were lame and the pictures turned out really small.

But I love it nontheless.

Dear Job,
I love you. Seriously. Why did it take you so long to come into my life?

Dear Husband,
I think it's so cute that you're a little student once more. I'm totally relieved I don't have to worry about writing papers or taking tests, but I will always, always be in your life to plan out and organize your schedule. It's a twisted joy of mine.

Dear Sleep,
I don't know what I've done to make you leave me, but please come back. I miss you. I need you.

Dear Motivation,
I finally found you again. New, healthier, Lauren...here I come!

Dear Week,
You are FULL of funtimes. Friends, Family, Food. Love. Love. Love.

Don't forget! Tomorrow is our next gtkY!
