Flabulous 15
Author: LJ

Have you ever heard of the Freshman 15? It’s a “milestone” for kids right out of High School, in their Freshman year of colleger per say. Basically the tradition is, life is so different, so out of whack and we’re on our own for the first time so we eat terribly, drink too much alcohol, stay up too late and party too hard. In our Freshman year we gain the basic 15 pounds. Cute story but hardly realistic. I mean, for me it was the Freshman 30 and it just went up from there.
Well I’ve hit another famous 15, ok it’s not famous, but it’s about to be. This past week I hit the flabulous 15. What does it mean? After years of being flabulously fat, I’ve finally roughed it past the hovering pounds and lost 15, a milestone for me. Actually I skipped right past 15 and went straight to 16 pounds lost, but you get the poin. It’s not even a quarter of where I want to be, but it’s something. It’s going down.
LJ here, keeping on trucking.

It’s been a while since we’ve written in the blog and we’re sorry!!
Things just get so crazy sometimes with work and school and babies and freelance work and trying to live a healthy lifestyle and still keep up your relationships with your friends and family. Life can get SO busy.
So here’s an update: KJ is doing great. She’s lost over 25 pounds now and has really kicked things into gear while working and taking care of a baby and being an incredible wife. Me? I’m doing okay. Mounds of full time work and freelance while trying to be a home maker have really bogged me down. Sometimes I get so busy in the day I don’t even realize I’ve skipped lunch. It’s not healthy and I love food so much I never thought I’d be that kind of person but work can do strange things to a person.
But I haven’t forgotten my main goals and what I need to do. Hopefully after I put my freelance work to bed this next week I can start to put my focus back on my health, which I never should have lost sight of to begin with!!!
