SO far behind, but let's go!

#19 - my Vitamins (I actually needed to take two pics because I have my work vitamins and my home - time-spacing issues - can't take certain ones together.)

#20 - Aw, missed my chance to bestow upon you the glorious, glowing, fresh dewy image of my morning selfie---because I totally didn't look like a sleep deprived, working momma cliche with a dirty tank and holey socks. :P

#21 My biggest support is my husband. Always.

#22 Honestly I do my best working out to German rap/hip-hop--I can't understand it but it sounds incredibly angry which is basically what I feel when I am forced to exercise! Also, I have been scream-singing this one on the treadmill lately, much to the husband's chagrin.

#23 - Get a fitbit to annoy you all day. I have mine vibrate to remind me to get up and move. Plus I love the little fireworks when I reach my 10,000 steps.

❤ We are kindred souls ❤

So I might be high class trash after all, I think I deleted it to make space for the Sistine Chapel [emoji29]. I'm going to check one more place...
The Sistine Chapel?? As in, the one in the Vatican??

I started January out in the dreaded Week 4 and 5 stall period, so I'm hoping for maybe an 8 pound weight loss in January.
