day 16 - ish. the cleanse.

Part of this ‘no shopping for 365 days’ was I wanted to HAVE to get my pre - fertility struggle / pre - baby weight back! Fit in all those items that I still love, are still relevant and still need some wear.

I am an instant gratification girl. I gave up carbs for 24 hours, HOW IS THE SCALE NOT 6 lbs lighter??? I haven’t had wine for a week, WHY IS MY WAISTLINE NOT 4 INCHES SMALLER???

So, I need something to kick start this little weight loss journey. I was talking to a friend and she has her little just 10 days before Annabelle and she looks BONKERS good (now, she doesn’t like wine like I do) but we came to the conclusion that I was slightly TOO skinny back in the day. So, don’t get me wrong, I am being realistic. I am not looking for my wedding day weight (I was TWENTY EIGHT) but I am looking for my ‘I feel good about myself at 35’ weight.

Little do some know (or maybe they did since I was probably moody), that Andrew and I used to cleanse once a month for about 2 years. Think like 2015 - 2017. So we were basically HAWTE humans and had a LOT more patience / persistence / self control.

We are doing a Pressed Juicery restart one day this week and a 3.5 day cleanse next week. Pray for me. Andrew needs no prayers, the man is a machine and will probably come out with glowing skin, and 24 lbs lighter.

Men.
