- Hi Friends!👋🏻
After weeks of eating like garbage and not moving my body, I found myself in a heavy fog. Low energy, little to no motivation, bored with food choices, feelings of depression-- it was all connected-- and it's eye opening to see how the fuel we put in truly affects the output. I was tired of the damaging cycle, the unhealthy habits I was repeating every day. I was just tired--running on E. Each day we have a choice-- a choice to be healthy and do right by our minds and bodies, or a choice to continue the harmful, repetitive cycle that makes us feel like exhausted lumps. I told myself, "no more"...and I meant it. Today was the reboot of my healthy lifestyle. The day I decided to take back my energy, motivation, mental clarity...all of it. I owe it to myself. I owe it to my body...because this body has been damn good to me! Get cozy--it's a long one. Enjoy, my lovelies!!🖤

I'm so glad I watched your CZcams video today. I have been feeling the same way you have-eating junk and feeling like I'm in a fog all day. So tired and miserable. Your video just resonated with me and I am super stoked to get back on my program and start trying to walk every day. Thank you so much for sharing.
Oh my gosh! You are so very welcome. You just made my day🥰 the fact that this video was helpful for you and you could relate is exactly why I do this!❤️ I promise you, you will feel better so quickly with a few on-track days. It has made a world of difference in my mood & energy levels since making this video. I’m cheering for you! You can do this!🥰💕
I started going back to school part time, 3 weeks after my son was born. I work part time and learning to become a new mom has postponed my fitness goals. My son is 9 months now and now its time i make myself a priority I recently started waking up at 4am. Its crazy. But it gives me 2-3 hours before he wakes up and before work/class to get my fitness/me time. Ive noticed a huge difference in my attitude. I started WW two days ago and im so pumped I found your channel! Looking forward to see more day in the life videos and ideas for things to eat!!
You are AMAZING Dominique!!❤️Juggling the demands of motherhood, being a student, and an employee…my hat is off to you, girl!! I’m so proud of you for taking the time to prioritize yourself (even if it is at an ungodly early hour😴)! We do what we have to do to be the best versions of ourselves💪🏻 your son will see all of your hard work, determination, and strength growing up and that will shape his character. You’re doing an AMAZING job, Mama!🥰💕
Your kids are so adorable. Seeing Quinn cuddling with her brother is just so sweet!
If you are looking for food or meal prep inspo a few WW channels I follow that I think have great ideas and recipes (often simple easy recipes) are: Balancing Life with Bri, Planning us Healthy, Lauren Jansen and Recipes with Roy.
I love your honesty ❤ on the struggle bus also! In a funk lately 😕 and need to crawl out of it! Its so hard sometimes with kids to put ourselves first.
I’m riding that bus right there next to you, girlfriend!❤️ It’s nice to know we aren’t alone in our struggles and recognizing we are in a funk is usually the first step to pulling ourselves out! I’m rooting for you! We’ve got this!💪🏻🥰💕
loved your video....Your relationship with your kids is so appreciated. I love children! Been a teacher for 38 years ( just lost my job) and retired early. Anyway, I love to see happy, smiling children and that's because of great parenting. Btw, you can boil the pineapple "peel" that we all throw away.. It makes delicious & healthy tea!
Just found your channel and subscribed. I need a kick in the pants and the title sucked me in. You did a killer leg workout! We are in completely different places in life, but I can certainly relate to you! Thanks, I'll be watching.
You are the sweetest! Thank you so much❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh my word, I am exhausted watching what you do in a day!! I am 67 years old and obviously an empty-nester, but I don't think I ever did all that you do. Your children are adorable and so well-behaved. I love that your little one snuggles up with her big brother. What a beautiful family you have. You're an inspiration to many. Good luck with your journey.
I love watching you & Quinn coloring & seeing the boys. They’re all so cool.
I feel like you’ve read my mind!! I feel the same way!!!
I am so much in the same position you’re in right now. I’ve been binging for the past 3 weeks on stupid Peanutbutter pretzels. Affected my mood & motivation too. I felt in a dark place for 3 weeks. I’m on a restart beginning tomorrow. I appreciate your sharing & I identify completely with your feelings. I must also begin my walking again too. I have no energy now & feel awful. Time for a change. Thank you for being there to help me. I love your honesty & sharing. Love you. Sylvia.
🌼Hi Jodi
I really enjoy your channel.
You have good meal prep/ cooking ideas.
The kids are so fun to see. The baby is getting big & see us adorable.
Keep up sharing! Thanks
I am so inspired by your morning work outs that I am challenging myself to go to the gym ,first thing in the morning all of May, except Friday and Saturday. I will let you know how it goes.
Loved seeing you little ones. I'm new to your channel, hopefully you are the inspiration I need to get going on a healthier lifestyle!
This was just so relatable in so many ways. I agree with you 100% with getting up and working out. That definitely is the golden ticket. Your kids make me miss those days so much. It's so hard but try to enjoy every second. Before you know it, it's over. And for the record, you look fantastic!! God bless sweet friend
Amen! Life is hard and we need to be well-fueled to handle it all. I feel like crap when I eat crap too. Your kids are so cute. I workout in the morning too, because I am just too spent by the time the day is over. So if you ever think you're only one up with the birds and working out, you aren't alone. I think you're great! 'Miring your fridge-packing skills!
Totally relate! Whenever I take a break basically from taking care of myself, I feel so much worse! I try to be patient with myself but also try to understand that prioritizing my health and wellness makes such a difference across-the-board.
You are so right! I’m sorry you are in the same boat but it’s nice to know we’re not alone in the struggle.❤️ I always tell myself I cannot pour from an empty cup and it’s a nice little reminder that I need to do the things that make ME feel good, too! We are important and our happiness and well-being matters. When I feel like the best version of myself, I am such a better wife, Mom, and human being in general lol😆🥰 Sending hugs!!🤗
thank you for talking about this and in such a compassionate way... you are positive and inspiring but there are realities to all this and appreciate you sharing.
I love you, friend! Thank you so much🥰❤️
I'm so glad I listened to you today!!!!! I'm on WW since Jan 20. I lost 80 pounds, I fell Nov 6,21. Broke my left hip. Spent 3 months in rehab. Came home in Feb 22 and can't seem to get back on track!! Help!!!
Hi Phyllis!! Oh my goodness! I am so sorry to hear about your broken hip🥺. I hope you are healing well❤️ losing 80lbs is a HUGE accomplishment and you CAN and WILL get back on track! Whenever I’m trying to get back on track, I make a list of reasons why I am on this journey and keep it somewhere I will see it often. This helps me keep my goals in sight. I’m actually in a similar boat right now-I’ve been under a lot of stress with my children being sick and I’ve definitely been eating my feelings. As a result, I feel sluggish, my mood has been poor, and I just feel very blah. Usually after a few days/weeks of feeling like this, I am able to get back on track because I’m so tired of feeling miserable and tired. We can do this together!!💪🏻❤️
@@FiveLittleFins Thank you, I have been watching your videos today and you have inspired me to really get back on the wagon tomorrow. I'm not able to go back to the y yet to water walk but hopefully soon. I'm 73 years old and physically haven't bounced back the way I thought I would but...... Tomorrow will be full speed ahead! Again, I can't thank you enough for the encouraging words. ❤️
🌼We all need Me Time! Mornings are usually a good
time to have time for you. Since you have so much
Going on throughout the day & night.
I need to plan & eat the meals (3) to stay on plan.
My kids are grown so it is easier for me to fit in time for myself.
But there are times I just don’t do it & I pay for it.
Just take time for yourself…..you will feel so much more positive.
You owe it to yourself & your family.
You are great!
I’m feeling the exact same way as you! I’ve been in a funk, busy with my kids and letting myself fall by the wayside. If it makes you feel better, I recently found your channel and you are serious mom goals to me! I have a two year old and a four month old and I feel like I’m drowning a lot. Trying to lose baby weight has been difficult with being a busy sahm trying to potty train while also wrangling a little baby 😅
You have inspired me to watch the things I am eating just wanted to say thank you. I enjoy your videos. Have a great day! 😊
Thank you so much, Elaine! Oh my goodness-you are so very welcome! That means so much to me to know I have inspired you to prioritize your health and wellness!🥰❤️ I hope you have a great day and weekend as well!🤗
Your are truly inspiring and I thank you for your honesty and sharing. I have been two weeks in and It has helped me to keep putting one foot in front of the other. Thank you
Thank you so much, Deena!🥰 That’s so fantastic and I’m honored to be an inspiration through your wellness journey. It’s truly not easy and it’s so incredible and important to have love and support every step of the way. We’ve got this!💪🏻💕
New follower of yours! I know you can’t reply to everyone and you have probably answered this in the past but I am curious if your husband and kids eat what you eat or if you make separate meals for them? That is one of my big struggles when I’m trying to eat right.
Hi Kara!❤️ It’s definitely not ideal at mealtime over here, but most of my kids are in the heart of that horrible picky stage where they only eat nuggets, pizza, and Mac & Cheese🙈 it makes it a little easier on me because their meals are super fast to prepare…but I still feel like a short order cook most nights between the 7 of us🤪 My husband will eat the same foods as me, thankfully! But if he’s not feeling what I’m eating, he knows he is left to fend for himself😆 it’s not easy and I empathize with this struggle SO much❤️
Good job committing to healthy changes. Four times a week of exercise is a great goal. You can do it!! 💙
Thank you so much, Robin!!❤️❤️ I hope you have a wonderful weekend!🥰
I really think junk food has a mental effect on us. The show “ fit to fat to fit” is a great example. Alot of the fit trainers get grumpy and in a fog after forcing themselves to get fat on junk food. And then they understand the struggle to get fit again
I'm in a similar position at the moment, first it was my daughters birthday then it was Easter and I'm now just recovering from having covid and I'm really excited to get back to some good habits once I'm feeling better. I'm sick of all my excuses and looking forward to making progress again! x
I’m so sorry to hear you had Covid!🥺 I hope it wasn’t too bad and you aren’t dealing with any residual side effects. Give yourself grace and time to heal. Happy belated Easter & happy belated birthday to your daughter! We are all human and definitely know you are not alone!❤️ You recognize that it’s been a rough few weeks-you can and WILL get back to those healthy habits and see wonderful progress soon enough. Remember: one meal & day at a time! Get well soon!🥰
@@FiveLittleFins thank you so much for your sweet message, I am definitely feeling a lot better than I was, hence the planning to get back on track! lol I'm in the UK and we don't have to isolate anymore which means its EVERYWHERE at this point, I have managed to avoid it until now! Hoping within the next few days I'll be back to normal! x
Love love your videos! It is true of human nature that St Paul lamented” What I do, I do not understand. For I do not do what I want, but I do what I hate. Wretched man that I am”. I know what is best for me and I for it for awhile and then I am back to the ways that make me made at myself.
Thank you so much, Cathy!❤️ St. Paul’s words ring so true! Thank you so much for sharing them with me. We are all works in progress and as long as we never give up, we cannot fail. We may stumble and fall many (many, many, many🤪😂) times, but we get back up and press on. We are all in this together!🥰
@@FiveLittleFins I love your insight, so true. Your vlogs keep me going.
I needed this. Thank you!
GIRL! I feel all your feels and I don’t have kids!!!
It’s nice to know we aren’t alone in our struggles but I’m sorry you’re struggling, too! Sending love! We got this!💪🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The struggle bud is here in Rhode Island and it’s parked at my house. I too have been struggling with sweets my minds is always on candy since I have not been sticking to ww. I just can’t seem to get back on track!!!! Everything you are saying I am feeling. But we can do this👍❤️
You go girl😃
Peroxide & spray dawn should take the torpedo pop out of your curtains. It took red wine out of my white down comforter. Might have to let it soak for half an hour
Thank you SO much!! I’m going to give that a try!!❤️
I’m so jealous every time I see those blackened chicken strips. They don’t sell them in my area. I live in Southernohio.
Thanks for this video
I truly appreciate it and I truly understand
We need more ❤️to❤️ we all need each other
👍👍
Hi, new subbie 😀 love ur content! How much waite did you loose allready?? Love from the Netherlands
I can relate with you so much!!!
I’m sorry you are struggling, as well but it’s comforting to know we are not alone!❤️ We can do this. As long as we don’t give up on ourselves, we cannot fail!🤗💕
We do not have a WW’s where I live. I guess everything is online only. Not sure that will work for me because I am not good about holding myself accountable. Any suggestions?
❤️
You’re so sweet! Thank you!🥰❤️
Ty for being real
Thank you for being so sweet!❤️❤️❤️
Tell me how to use the scale!
Have a hard time seeing products and amounts of food because on those parts of video it goes fast.
Hi there, could you tell me how many personal points you get in a day. I noticed you have brown rice as a free. what criteria did you use to choose your free foods? Any info helpful! Thank you for your videos!
Hello! You are so very welcome! Thank you for watching and being so sweet🥰 I currently get 16 personal points per day. When I filled out the questionnaire on the WW app (which you can take and retake as often as you’d like), there are several questions about food preferences and the way you’d like to eat (aka if you’re a snacker, how often you enjoy eating fruits & veggies, picking from lists of foods like full fat dairy, meats, sweet & salty snacks, refined grains, fast food, etc. and deciding what you eat “most days”, etc.). It’s a very straightforward quiz-you just answer honestly about the way you currently eat and it determines (based on your answers) your daily points budget & your free foods! I absolutely love carbs (🙈) so I still have to be mindful even though they’re “free” for me. If I have brown rice at one meal, I don’t allow myself to have it again that day (or I split the portion I have between meals). I hope that was helpful!☺️❤️
do you live in Massachusetts? sceens of driving look exactly like where i live 💙
You’re so good!!❤️ I live in southern NH but I can literally walk into MA from my house lol! I love meeting other New Englanders!!🥰
U got this , sounds like a great plan. We have all been there. But give away sweets if u can
Thank you so much! Now I just have to work on putting the plan into practice and being consistent (not perfect, just consistent)!🥰💕
HI do U LIKE that BLACKENED chicken??? I see alot of ppl using it
Hello! I absolutely love it!!😍 It’s a little spicy but SO flavorful!😋🤤
@@FiveLittleFins awesome. I just ordered it hahaha!
I'm trying to be good its just hard and gets old
Hooray!! I hope you love it!!😍
I hear you! I’m definitely in a food rut right now, so I can completely relate! Trying to find some inspiration on CZcams, IG, WW connect, and Pinterest as well!☺️
I never know what to do at gym
I usually do 30 minutes of cardio (usually elliptical) to get myself warmed up and then I purchased an app called “Alive By Whitney”, which I use as my guide for strength training. The app is incredible and really guides you through each movement & how to safely perform it (highly recommend)! I was a super newbie to weight lifting and it has been a fantastic tool to get me started😍
