Why the heck is she doing a “reset?”

My first week of grocery shopping!

 

I have hit my goal weight. I feel pretty good. I feel like I am in good shape. I can run more than I ever have. I workout more than I ever have. I feel more confident than I ever have.

So WHY would I go and do another cleanse? More specifically why would I do the Ultimate Reset? Why would I go through 21 days of cleansing?

Honestly, I thought these same questions myself. Why would I want to do ONE more thing when I have already done so much to get to where I am right now.

Here is why:

Though I eat healthy a majority of the time, I have also been dependent on some prepackaged foods. If you are like me and always busy, feeling like you are running a mile a minute, you try to find the way to be the healthiest, cheapest and fastest throughout the day. I was eating vegan sausages every single day because they were easy and quick and tasty. And I thought well, if they are vegan they must be super healthy, right? NOPE!! Unfortunately not! When foods are packaged they are filled with preservatives and unhealthy ingredients.

Prepackaged and processed food contains sodium, added sugars, fat and unhealthy additives to keep a longer shelf life. NOT something you want to put in  your body every single day.

So this “cleanse” is not JUST a cleanse, it is a commitment to healthy living and cleaner eating for 21 days. This is to help with a lifestyle change.

I want to be more dependent on fresh foods, fresh ingredients and clean eating rather than eating out of a bag. I want the same for my kids. So, if I want that for them then I too have to do this also.

So far I am 13 days in. I feel great. I feel refreshed. I am learning all new recipes, foods and how to make meals taste amazing without adding bad ingredients. I am excited for the next eight days!

Unlike other cleanses, with this cleanse I am not juicing or having meal replacements. I am making my meals fresh. I do continue to have my shakeology for a snack once a day which is allowed on the reset.

One big change for me is that I am not working out like I used to. I am committing to yoga for 21 days. This was a change for me because I love intense workouts so I am now being forced to slow things down and relax. Honestly, I am loving it. Yoga is a whole new workout for me and I think it is great!

So here on out….. my goal is not to lose weight but to get rid of bloat, get rid of anything bad that I have been storing in my body through years of eating packaged foods. I am hoping to feel lighter and go into the summer feeling refreshed and eating clean, raw foods!

 

Here’s to eight more days!

Year 16 and we are putting the whole “for richer Year 16 and we are putting the whole “for richer or poorer, in sickness and health” to the test. 😳

Between hospital bills and almost 2 weeks in the hospital - we have reached the sicker and poorer side of our marriage 🫤

But we have also stayed madly in love throughout every adventure and moment… and this won’t be any different. 🥰

To the guy I married when I was 20 years old and everyone said it was crazy…. 

You are the best part of my life 💕

Here’s to another 16…. 🥂 
More health & more richer 😉😆

HE IS HOME!!! 🙌🏼🥰💕🎉 My favorite pe HE IS HOME!!! 🙌🏼🥰💕🎉

My favorite person in the entire world is home after a long 12 days in the hospital!!!!!!

12 days is the LONGEST we have ever not snuggled together….
The LONGEST the kids haven’t had daddy home…

For 10 of those days, we didn’t have a full conversation.. which is also the longest time we have gone without talking 😪

He still has pancreatitis and will need gallbladder surgery in the near future….
But for now, he can heal at home with his family! 💕

We are so grateful for all of the love, prayers, visits, meals, kid pickups and every bit of incredible support. 

For most of the time he was gone, I cried every morning and every night before and after I was with him. 
I am so very grateful for every person that offered any help because it meant soooo much and mentally I needed it!!!

We are soooooooooooo grateful as a family for ALL OF YOU!! 💕

Every person who helped and prayed and supported us was absolutely apart if his healing.

We are snuggling him extra now and taking every bit of time we have with him!!!

XOXOX, 
The Doran’s

This is not the Mothers Day I would have picked… This is not the Mothers Day I would have picked… 

But I would pick these kids, this family and this moment of pride for my boy over and over again. 

Just being together matters. 

Just raising good humans matters. 

If my Mothers Day gift this year was this reminder that my kids are growing into great people.. that’s enough 💕

I don’t know if it’s a sign… But I do know t I don’t know if it’s a sign…
But I do know there is power in prayer…
I do know there aren’t any coincidences…
I do know that these doves weren’t not just flying by and found a place to land… 
They had to come from up above and swoop down into this courtyard.

Tonight will officially mark the most amount of ni Tonight will officially mark the most amount of nights we haven’t slept together in 17 years… 😢

The hardest part of today was him being out of it so much and sleeping that he was talking in his sleep to the kids. 😪

The second hardest was feeding him and seeing him be the most weak he has ever been. 

The third hardest was leaving him… 

I walk away and leave it to God and the nurses to take care of him while I’m gone.

And go home and put a smile on my face when I’m home with the kids…

And pray that when I come back, he has GRANDPA JOE’d himself out of this bed and I can take him home 🥰
Our favorite person in the house went to the ER wi Our favorite person in the house went to the ER with chest pains (holy scare) —
And it turned out to be the gallbladder. 😬

After alot of scans and tests, it looks like our guy is going to spend some days in the hospital and set to have surgery soon. 😢

My husband is the ROCK of this whole family. 
Everyone else (including me) are just mini hurricanes in this life and he is the rock that stays still and holds us all together. 

For a second, I thought I would just stay silent on here. If it wasn’t fitness, podcasts or inspiration, maybe I’ll just keep quiet. 

But - I have opened up alot about my life… 
And I don’t want you to follow me or my family and think everything is rainbows and butterflies.

I don’t want people who go through illness or hard times to think they are alone in that. I want to continue to show you that there are hard times, scary times and not every day is a party… but we move forward. 

We draw strength from eachother as a family, we draw strength from the friends that have been placed in our lives and we draw strength from God. 

I will continue to be open about our family in hopes to inspire you, to be here for you if YOU need someone and to show you that we’re all human and all have struggles. 

We are patiently waiting for surgery…
we were all set to go yesterday but his pancreas levels were bad so they canceled it.

Today, we are waiting for blood work to give us the all clear for surgery and hope his pain goes away. 

The kids have never seen daddy like this so it’s hard watching them cry everytime they think of him or see him, while trying to hold it in at the same time. 😪

Last night, the kids and I prayed..
We prayed for daddy’s pain, we prayed for the surgeons hands, for the nurses who are taking care of him, for the doctors, and for our friends who have been so thoughtful.

Thank you everyone for your continued prayers, love and support! 💕
All the feels today as so many people stopped to s All the feels today as so many people stopped to support my sweet girl. Some teenagers, some parents and then this guy that paused his job to give her some business. 

He then gave her back the dog treat and said to give it to the dog. 

All. The. Feels. 💕

Would love to blow up his kindness 💕
