Happy Anniversary & Weekly Eats...

"That feeling that doesn't go away just did
And I've walked a thousand miles to prove it
And I'm caught in the crossfire of my own thoughts"
-E.G
Today marks my one moth crossfit anniversary.
In one month I have become stronger then I ever thought possible.
And I am not even talking physical strength...
I am stronger today, emotionally, mentally, AND physically then I have ever been.
Crossfit has helped me cope with the burden of a failed marriage...
And to be able to be me again.
My life is now filled with life long, positive friendships.
Weekends are spent feasting on healthy food and snuggling on the couch with my woman,
Instead of getting drunk by the fire with Adam & "friends"
I am a better mom, friend, daughter
I am a stronger woman then I was four weeks ago.
