3 months from now you will thank yourself

Hello Lovelies!
I know it's been a quick minute since I have posted
but.....it's been worth it!
Taking this short break and focusing on myself and where 
I need to be has been totally amazing.

THINGS THAT HAVE HAPPENED:
1. My sweet, sweet, sweet, boyfriend made the move all the way cross country to be with me here in TN.
2. School. I've realized how super close I am to being finished with my (2!) degrees, yes, after these two I will have a total of three degrees and I'm possibly going to go to grad school...maybe... still thinking on that one.
3. Family. I haven't really bragged on my family recently, but they're still being fabulous!

Now that you're up to speed on my life...
I want to talk about something that has been on my mind for a little bit.

Weight loss.

As many of you know, I have been working really hard at losing weight, then I got in my accident and got lovely disks in my neck that like to pop out of place every once in a while, which makes it really difficult sometimes to stay on a work out schedule.
I do have meds that I take which help but sometimes the pain is just too unbearable and I become really grumpy and have to sleep…a lot, but anyways…
Luckily I haven’t gained any weight but I haven’t lost any either, so I’m taking that as a sign that good things are coming if I keep pushing forward. I’m not one of these people who plan on going under the knife to lose weight. I want to do it naturally, not saying that going under the knife is bad, it’s just not for me.
So I want to take you on my journey to becoming healthier for myself and for my future kiddos and family.

Each week I (hopefully) will do a blog about my journey into losing more weight, which will inspire you to do the same, if you feel that you need to do so. I want to write up my work out plans and yummy/healthy meals for you to try!

I am so excited to do this with you all.
If you have your own weight loss story, want to send me love, or need some encouragement yourself, PLEASE  email me [simplyleslieann@gmail.com]. I would love to help encourage you as you go on this journey yourself.

Trust me, 3 months from now you will thank yourself!

Best,
Leslie

Spring Break 2016

This year I was FINALLY able to go on a spring break trip with my family, which was much needed. You see usually my school schedule and work schedule never coincide with when my family is taking their annual trip to the lovely KW but this year it did! I was so excited to be able to go this trip! This year (and every other year) we traveled to Key West, Florida and OMG it was amazing! Even though it was a long(er) trip it was well worth it! There is so much to do there, even if the place itself is only 3 miles wide. My favorite thing to do is the Conch Train ride, its a little train/trolley ride that takes you around KW and tells you historical facts about the place, (maybe I love it a little too much because I am a history guru). But in all seriousness it is nice to actually get away from the demands of life and enjoy time with family and it doesn't hurt that it was in such a beautiful place surrounded by the ocean. On our way to Key West and on our way back home, we stopped at...

Top [Ten] favorite quotes!

Today I am going to talk about my top 10 favorite quotes and why I love them. I think that inspirational quotes are my favorite type of quotes just because as I have gotten older I've learned to rely on them and they help me get through some of the dark times in my life. 1. "Those who move forward with a happy spirit will find that things work out"  -Gordon B. Hinckley I love this quote because I honestly believe in it. I grew up listening to this man talk in conferences and I absolutely love reading his talks. It's so amazing that when I read or listen to his talks how much I feel as though he is talking specifically to me. 2. "You have not failed until you quit trying" -Gordon B. Hinckley See, I told you I love this man. I absolutely love this quote because it is true, I believe that if you keep on trying at something you have won in some regards. 3.  "If you are a little better than you were yesterday, then that is enough" -David A....
