Trying to find a balance between a 9-5 career and health can be a struggle! This week, I’m showing you how I manage weight lifting, running, and cooking healthy meals while working full-time.

I did go out to eat multiple times this week and had a TON of Starbucks, but I balanced it out by experimenting with new recipes and eating lots of veggies. I'm currently trying to transition away from protein powder/Barebells and focus more on whole food protein sources—it is definitely a work in progress!

As for my journaling habit, I journaled multiple times and have been loving it. It is such a great way to start my day and get some of my thoughts down. For reading, I decided to give up on Why We Sleep and will be starting a new book soon. I am hoping changing my book gets me out of the reading slump I have been in.

Thanks for watching!

xoxo,
Jenn

Hi, I'm Jenn! My YouTube channel has been a video diary for me to share my weekly successes and struggles as I navigate healthy changes. I'm on a long-term journey of self-improvement that began on July 21st, 2024, when I gave up alcohol. I've done challenges like 75 Hard and The Miracle Morning, started weight lifting, become a reader, and am determined to continue trying different healthy habits and routines to find what works best for me. It's not always perfect - but in the process I've seen MAJOR results (down about 60 lbs and stronger than ever!)

If you want to follow along with my weight loss journey, I will be continuing to post my weekly vlog videos every Monday at noon, so be sure to hit the subscribe button! ❤️
