    DIY P3 Packs – Grab & Go Protein! – “Pretty + Protein Packs”

    03/28/2017 /

      The other day, I purchased a protein pack from my local grocery store called P3. It had probably an ounce of turkey, ounce of cheese, and half ounce of turkey. I LOVED it, and since I have had weight loss surgery, it was the perfect amount for my tiny tummy. (I’m eating 2-4 ounces at a meal and snack. If you want to know more about my WLS journey, check it out here.) As I was eating it, I just kept thinking two things. 1. I was thinking how DELICIOUS and simple it was! 2. I was thinking that I could chop up my own proteins and make a…

    Plus Size Ladylike OOTD

    03/21/2017 /

    How sweet it will be when Spring actually feels like it’s here in Indiana! Now, my legs still feel like they are going to fall off, and I might have frostbite on my cheeks from this shoot! I love wearing this outfit, because it is the perfect amount of girly, it’s SO comfortable, and obviously hella cute! It’s a bit more muted than my last skirted look, but it’s much more of an every day look for me anyway. Check out makeup details below, and then outfit photos after that!     Foundation- Candleglow by Laura Mercier \ Blush- Paaarty by Tarte \ Highlight- Wisp by Colorpop Bronzer- Sun Bunny…

    1 Month Surgiversary – VSG Update (Video)

    03/10/2017 /

    VSG Update I have no idea where the original intro to my video went. Such a bummer, because I am sure it would have been better than the quick job I threw together on my phone. Alas, my one month update is below! It features my stats, my non-scale victories, and some issues I’ve been having as well. I hope you enjoy!

    Yes, No, Maybe So… Vibrant PSOOTD

    03/07/2017 /

    Vibrant PSOOTD   Is it weird to you guys that these photos were taken like, 30 pounds ago? I looked at these pictures and was like “damn, these are cute, but I look bloated!” But besides that, I think these photos are so fun and the outfit is about the brightest and most fun that I do. Notice, I am still wearing black and white stripes. Can’t take this gal out of the monochrome!     Mixing the bright, fun pattern with the black and white stripes isn’t the only good mix that is going on with this outfit. There is also texture mixing happening, which is super easy to…
