I'm on my way.

Hi, I'm Krista. I'm just your average college girl trying to find her place in this world. Along the way, I'm trying to lose weight and be healthy. Feel free to follow me on my journey :) Ask Away!

Minor setback..I went to the doctor on Wednesday because I was having bad abdominal pain. After some scans it was determined that I had appendicitis. So yesterday I had surgery to remove my appendix. I'm really sore but doing good. I just had a c section 6 months ago so this surgery was pretty easy in comparison. Hopefully I recover pretty quick from this so I can start focusing on toning my body and start running :)

Here's a flattering photo. I took this a couple mornings ago right after waking up. I weighed in at 169.8, which is my lowest weight in years! I don't think I've seen the 160s since 2012 when I got down to my lowest of 162. Its crazy to think that I'm just a few pounds away from my lowest weight! My stomach is still obviously a wreck though because of the whole having a baby thing lol. I think instead of focusing solely on weight loss I'm going to work on toning things up first. But I think this is a great starting point for me!

New Year Resolutions 2016 edition

2015 treated me great and I want to continue to do great things this year! My biggest achievements last year included becoming a mother and getting my bachelor's degree. So to start this year right, I want to set a few goals for myself to focus on. 1. Be the best mother I can be. I think this is probably the most obvious goal, but it's the most important. My daughter comes first no matter what. My life is now focused on her and I will do whatever I need to do for her. 2. Lose 20 pounds. Okay, yeah..this is a pretty generic resolution, but it needs to happen. Believe it or not I only gained 15 pounds while pregnant, but since I had my daughter almost 6 months ago I've lost 30 pounds. So I'm actually 15 pounds lighter than my prepregnancy weight! But, I think I am holding more weight around my midsection now which needs to go away. Ultimately, I want to try to lose 20 pounds but I would be happy to just tone up and get back in shape. 3. Start running again. This one is big for me. Those who have followed me for awhile know how much I used to run. Truth is, I haven't ran in over a year and a half which makes me feel horrible. I want to get back to where I left off which is obviously going to take some time, but I want it soooo bad. 4. Try to focus on myself and my own needs/wants. This is hard considering I have a little one who requires all of my time and focus, but I need to learn to do what's best for myself. Specifically, I am thinking about my relationship with my boyfriend (which is really rocky right now). I ultimately want to try to focus on making myself happy. 5. Figure out what I want to do with my life. This past year I graduated college but honestly, I'm still confused with the whole "what I want to do with my life" thing. This will be a year of exploration to try to answer that question. Here's to making this year a good one!

Did y'all hear the news..I'm a mom! I haven't been on tumblr for months so here's a peak at my mini me. 4 months old and spoiled to pieces 😍💕❤

Life update!

Hey guys! It feels like forever since I've dropped in to say hello. So I thought I would give a quick update! Things are going great for me right now. My boyfriend and I are getting ready to celebrate our 1 year anniversary on Friday. If you've been following for awhile, you know that we did have a really rough patch back in November but we were able to work through it and are better than ever right now. And no, it's not just for the baby. We began working things out before we knew about our little blessing. Speaking of her, I'll officially be 7 months this Saturday! Time has absolutely flown by with my pregnancy and I can't believe our sweet little girl will be here in less than 3 months! I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! I can't wait to finally hold her in my arms :) In other life news, I am graduating from college this summer! I walk on May 9th but I have to complete 2 summer classes to officially get my degree. In July I'll get my bachelor's degree in interdisciplinary studies. Not sure where I want to go or what to do from there, but hey, a bachelor's degree is an awesome achievement! There's so much exciting stuff going on in my life right now! I hate to cut this update short, but I have to head to the doctor's for another appointment. I'll try to do a better job of checking in from now on :)

First ultrasound! I was so nervous on the way there, but the nerves quickly turned to excitement as I saw my beautiful baby for the first time. The feeling is indescribable. Seeing him/her move around and seeing the tiny heart beat made me instantly fall in love. I couldn't be more excited for this journey ahead of me 😊😊😍😍💕💕

[kristagetsfit]

Well I'm already late for class so I guess I'll do my makeup today.

Some exciting news!!

I kind of hinted at it on New Year's Eve but I'll go ahead and officially announce it..I'm expecting!! This was completely unexpected and unplanned but the boyfriend and I are super excited..not to mention nervous and anxious, but most of all excited. I've known for quite awhile but wanted to wait awhile before officially announcing it. Almost all the family knows and everyone is excited for us. I'm just over 12 weeks so my little bundle of joy will be arriving at the end of July :)

Too many young girls don’t know how to act when someone’s being inappropriate with them. They giggle or they try to brush it off. Don’t do that. Tell them to go fuck themselves - be a bitch. If someone’s being disrespectful to you, be disrespectful right back. Show them the same amount of respect that they show you.
