I, like many women, gained a lot of weight during pregnancy, 30lbs the first time and 60lbs the second time. I started blogging in 2009 after stumbling upon Kath's blog. I lost the first 30lbs by reading her blog, adding veggies to my meals, and running occasionally. The 60lbs I gained with my son has been difficult to lose.

This time around I've focused more on a life change instead of trying to lose weight. I've added more weight training and switched my diet to paleo. I try to eat paleo 90% of the time. No our kids do not eat paleo. I feel like I don't have enough knowledge to feed them paleo. I can experiment on my own body and tell you how I feel about certain things. My kids can't. Plus they won't eat a lot of meat for me anyways so it would be a serious struggle that I'm not ready to deal with right now. Maybe when they are older. Head over here if you want to see what they eat.
The Squirrel:
Squirrel is cautious, bossy, and very intelligent. She eats healthy food but it's very limited. She is constantly asking me what is healthy and what isn't. She's a little sponge wanting to learn about everything.
Little Buddy (LB):
Little buddy or LB is fearless and spirited. He's the life of the party in every situation and gives me a run for my money every single day.
The Husband:
The husband is a helicopter pilot for the marine corps. He tries to cook everything on the grill, over-seasons food, hearts crossfit, and puts hot sauce on everything. He shares the same passion for food, cooking, and coffee as I do.
