Exactly 1 year ago today we went to my obgyn 8 weeks pregnant & very excited to see my baby via ultrasound. Not too much time into it the technician avoiding eye contact with me tells me there's no heartbeat and the baby stopped growing 4 weeks ago. Those words were a slap to my face. I could not believe it, I'm grateful my husband was with me. We embraced there in the ultrasound room, I cried and we prayed together. Through that prayer I felt God embrace my heart as if to say "I'm here, everything will be ok." I felt a calmness within my soul. My physical body still had to endure the miscarriage, but the Lord took care of me spiritually. I could have gone into depression but knowing that regardless of what happens in my life, He is still worthy of all the Praise and has blessed me time and time again. It's how you look at the situation you're in. I had so much faith He would grant me my desire for a 3rd child I continued to pray for it. Today, 1 year later I'm grateful and humbled by God answering my prayer. After every storm God promises that beautiful rainbow. Today my rainbow baby, Luke Josiah Alvarez turns 1 week old. He's healthy, happy and my heart will forever be grateful for my answered prayer. 💚💛💜🧡💙 https://www.instagram.com/p/BwdOnLugm6J/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=133ep23eze7g

I've posted this quote before, but after today's Dr appointment I can relate to this on a personal level.... A few weeks ago I had a miscarriage and wasn't allowed to workout. After a few days my body began to miss and crave my daily fitness routine. After a week I began to feel my neck and shoulders tense up. I woke up today feeling it everywhere,my body NEEDED to workout. I had my follow up appointment today and I thank God she gave me a clean bill of health, I can now go back to my intense workouts! 🎊🎉🎊 #praisereport

#transformationtuesday !!!! What a difference 1 year can make when you decide to stop your bad habits and create healthier ones. Working out consistently has changed the way I look, but more importantly, how I feel and think. It wasn't easy, but it was worth it. 💪🏻 If you're on the fence about getting fit, please send me a message to help you begin ur fitness journey! Let's do this!!

I love this because it is SO TRUE!! You may not see the scale drop right away, but you'll feel yourself getting stronger, and let me tell you: IT FEELS INCREDIBLE! 💪🏻

#tbt to March '17: overweight, always tired, not happy with my weight/size. After we took those family pictures I told myself I would begin working out on April. Fast forward to March '18: lost a ton of weight, muscle gains, back to my pre-baby clothes (size 4) and most importantly: HAPPY! Happy I've come so far physically and mentally. Happy I'm the example my children have on health & fitness, happy I'm able to share my journey with y'all to show y'all that it IS POSSIBLE! 💪🏻 DM for details 😁

I'm smiling but I'm SO TIRED! 😴 Total body cardio kicked my butt today, had to pause it several time but I got it done! Red face = good workout 👍🏻

YOGA: hadn't done it in a LONG time, didn't realize how much my body missed it until today. It felt good to stretch out my sore muscles, but it relaxed my mind & body 🧘🏻‍♀️ #namaste

Love yourself enough to care about what you're doing to your body. ESPECIALLY if you have children who are looking to you to be their example.
