READY TO START A NEW!

Life got in the way of my sexy figure! At least that’s my excuse. After nearly four years of wonderful marriage and one beautiful child, I’ve discovered that I’ve developed a private hatred for scales and mirrors alike. I’ve had enough of life getting in the way, and it’s time to get back into the best shape of my life! T-minus 60 pounds to go!
Let me start off by saying, I am blessed. Andrew is my loving husband, and we have a beautiful little one named Eden. I am able to stay at home with Eden while Andrew is able to work from home. We love to sit and watch movies or play video games while eating candy and pizza on our time off. Soda is something we drink daily. Taco Bell is a place we visit 2 or more times a week. My name is Christy Lowen, and I am ready to start a new.
As a mother, I set the path for my daughter. Whether it is a path to gluttony and laziness or one to a healthy and Godly lifestyle, it is my choice. As a wife, it’s my job to be and feel sexy for my husband!

Roller-Coaster Week

I am so happy you guys! I have been so good with my eating habits and workouts! I have lost 2 lbs this week!!! WOOT! It was a wake up call for me finding out that I was preggers. I started to really eat right. Except I have to confess today I was really sore from Friday and Saturday's workouts, so I was just going to rest today, but then we decided to have pizza... Because I have been eating so healthily, that pizza destroyed me!!! I had heart burn for like 6 hours! After realizing the damage that stuff did to my body I decided to suck it up and go on a 4 mile brisk walk. I was in pain probably for the first 2 miles, because I was so stiff and STILL burping up pizza that I ate hours ago. But after that I got in the groove and finished that stinker!

This is my lil' angel, Eden... She inspires me.


I am always seeing these pregnant women walking and they inspire me so much. So thank you ladies! Keep up the good work... I am really praying for the strength and persistence that you have!

This week has been filled with some ups and downs you guys. But God is great! I know a few of you know this already, but I had a little bit of a pregnancy scare right after I found out that I was pregnant. What a roller-coaster ride it has been. Long story short... I was spotting (which I had with Eden too) with some cramps, the Doctor kind of freaked out and acted as though I probably (not possibly) miscarried and had me take like 12 blood tests. When all was said and done the baby is great! God is good!

I know that some people are probably thinking, and this is why you wait to announce your pregnancy... I hear you, but think about how many people were praying for me and my baby. Prayer is so powerful! So thank you all so much for keeping this baby in your prayers. I really appreciate it so much.
One thing that I feel I am learning more and more everyday is that this child and Eden are God's children not mine.  He wants the best for this little one and Edie Peedie, and I am learning to trust that.

This is a picture of my workout partner/hubby and our lovely goddaughter Nevaeh. I love them =)
Andrew keeps me hoppin'!
