Medifast Week #4 | The Road To A Healthy Life

Filed Under: Health Tagged With: medifast, sponsored, weekly weigh-in, weight loss

The road to a healthy life is paved with motivation. I was starting to get discouraged. I couldn’t stay on the plan, and felt like I was always giving into cravings. Then my good friend Holly from Our Holly Days started Medifast too and it lit a fire under me. I wanted us to be able to support each other. Monday and Tuesday I laid out my food for the day and I stuck to the plan 100%! I was so proud of myself. I think I am finally on my way to making this a habit.

Motivation

Here are the foods I ate on Monday. I really think laying them out for the day really helps me. I lost 2 more pounds this week with an official weight loss of 25lbs!! I am so close to reaching my goal of 30lbs so I can get a massage! Woohoo! I still haven’t gotten my mani/pedi, so maybe I should just have a spa day! 50lbs to go!

    You definitely need to go get that mani/pedi. I think it would do wonders for your motivation. Maybe that's why you hit a wall? Thanks for your love & support. I'm doing better today & I think I'll try laying out my food like you.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.
Sweet pea. Sweet pea.

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.

She recommended this wooden trellis from Lowe’s that cost less than $15. I tied up the droopy leaves with twine. There is lots of room left for growth.
I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendro I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendron white wizard when I first got it, I also didn’t give it enough sunlight. So it was growing soooooo slow. I finally repotted it a couple weeks ago, moved it closer to a window, and started using plant food from @happyhappyhouseplant. Not sure what made the most difference but the leaf opened and now a new one is already starting. Hoping it won’t take as long this time.

Annelyn is loving her new hair cut and loving her hair straightened. Swipe for some adorable photos, she came up with all her own poses. Also the very last photo is her hair before, it was a hot mess. Mollie cut off 3-4 inches and it looks much healthier now.
