Motivation Monday

In celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr. day, here is one of my favorite quotes from him:

It can be really hard to take those first few steps when you don’t know if you’ll succeed or not. With anything new, like setting a goal, building up your business, eating better, or taking on a new fitness regimen, it takes time to get there and faith to get started.

I’ve finished the first week of the Arbonne 30 days to Healthy Living and Beyond program. We’ve been trying out new recipes like cauliflower pizza crust with Daiya cheese and Beyond Beef (Turned out more like a pizza casserole, but yummy), kale chips (Too salty, but got the texture right), and spaghetti squash with homemade pesto (Perfect!).

I’ve lost roughly 3-ish pounds, which is exciting because I have hovered at 180-ish for quite a while now post-baby. Taken last week:

Sorry, my phone’s camera is pretty bad these days. I think I’ve dropped it one too many times. 🙂

I don’t feel like I have much more energy yet BUT I have been off coffee for a week now, so I expect it to level out and increase soon!

Since today is my organizational day, I will be working on clearing out some things in storage before heading to the gym for Zumba!
