goal report: august 2019

Welcome to My First Goal Report! I feel like a kid with extra large legos. As mentioned at the beginning of August, I'm starting a new series where at the beginning of every month I will post my progress against my previous month's goals and the goals for the upcoming month. Being that I started…

need help with research!

Hello blogfriends! I need help with some research I'm doing about goal setting. I created a short survey (like seriously, it is only a few questions and shouldn't take more than a few minutes to complete) and would LOVE to hear from you! The survey below is totally anonymous, I'm not even tracking IP addresses.…

the incredible shrinking woman: week 15

WEEK FIFTEEN PEEPS! Pounds lost: 30.9 % to super goal: 25% Still doing the damn thing. You might notice that I stayed pretty much flat this week. While it’s disappointing, I’m trying not to let it get me down. I have been through periods before where I go up and down in a period of…

cursive verses: fledgling dreams

"Have a good day, honey!" Pete leaned over and kissed Mary's forehead before he grabbed his backpack and headed out the door. Mary loved it when he did that, it made her feel so safe and happy. Sighing, she lifted her laptop lid and opened her email program, sipping her coffee while checking her first…

super serious inspo

I have been so inspired lately! Seems like everywhere I look (online) I find more stuff I'd like to try or do. Recently I've been getting into journaling (again). I have an on-again, off-again love for journaling, which I will detail in another post, but while on the hunt for ideas for that, I came…

another week, another hobby

As you no doubt know by now, I like to try out different hobbies. For the last couple weeks, it's been watercolors! Those shiny spots are where it's still wet. Just from this first one I can tell you that I have a LOT to learn. I've been watching YouTubes and Pinteresting like crazy. There…

the incredible shrinking woman 2.0: week 14

I can't believe it's week 14 already! Pounds lost: 30.3 % to super goal: 24% DOING the damn thing. In fact, today marks exactly three months that I've been doing the damn thing, and I’m almost almost almost a quarter of the way to my super goal! I'm getting closer and closer to my next…

cursive verses: the hardcase

Three weeks ago I was a delivery driver. Seriously. Then out of nowhere some weird suggestion trigger planted in my brain like three years ago kicked in (in the middle of a delivery, no less) and twenty-four hours later I was in a bunker in the middle of nowhere with a training instructor kicking my…

the incredible shrinking woman 2.0: week 13

Here I am, on week 13! Pounds lost: 28.5 Percent to super goal: 22.6 In light of recent events, I am even more motivated to do this damn thing. This week was hard. Really hard. I didn't have any progress at all in the first half of the week, and it wasn't until midweek that…

progress…maybe?

So. Thursday night, the chest pain and, you know, vomiting (ew), that sent me to the ER a few weeks ago came back, again at the sunny (or not so) hour of 3 in the morning. If there's something worse than waking up at three in the morning thinking I'm having a heart attack, I…
