Starting Over: Getting healthy

Starting over is not easy. Homeschooling and working from home as a single parent is a daunting task. Sometimes it is easier to talk than it is to type. I started my podcast BalanceBurden while I was pregnant five years ago. I was vegan for two years and I never felt better. I have since fallen back into comforting bad habits and need to start over yet again in the area of physical  health. I have learned that as adults we start over so many times for so many reasons. My sister was going through a renewal as well and wrote a book Wake Up and Workout. It was in line with my health journey and made so much sense. The recipes were a nice addition to my vegan routine. 

I find myself looking to her books as I start getting back to my healthy routines. I will be honest I might be 227lbs right now but I don't want to loose 100lbs. I would not look cute at 127lbs. I would look sickly as all get out. 

Yes I am up for the Challenge. I might be turning forty at 227 but when I turn 41 I am going to look like I did when I was 27. Oh wait I was pregnant so 28. 😂 No 32 wait 25 was completely before kids. 170-185 is my sweet spot clothes look good. 😊

On topic of starting over...

Although I already had my podcast, I started using the Stereo App as soon as I could because clubhouse seemed like fun but I am thoroughly against iPhones and Apple products. The only apple product I use is Apple TV because Severence is too good to ignore. When running a blog and podcast you have to build links and keep people engaged and I agree with what stereo is trying to do. A live podcast that engages people in real time. Schedule talks and share the link with listeners so that I am not just talking to myself. I think that is why I was so bad at keeping a regular posting schedule. Couple new tech with my mommy schedule and I was lucky to form coherent thoughts at all to post 12 times a year. Now that my children are older, I have a little more free time and someone to occupy my now five year old long enough for me to start over from scratch.
