It’s no news I'm obsessed with Almost Famous the movie since I was in high school. It was my sister and I’s go to movie for movie night. We are adults and still quote this movie in our every day lives. So we decided to put our brains together and make a few shirts of our favorite movie quotes. We still have more in the works but if you are an #almostfamous lover like us or simply a 90′s kid, this shirt is for you!

I’m letting go of waiting for people to stand up in my life. 

I’m letting go of waiting for people to make me happy, bitch I’ll make myself happy.

 I’m letting go of waiting for my husband to watch the kids so I can workout and lose weight, bitch I got the gym daycare (signed up for child care the rest of the week)...bitch I got a stroller...hell I buy the damn groceries..no Oreos up in here anymore!

I’m letting go of waiting for friends to come over for coffee and playdates, I'm gonna make myself a pot of coffee and call a sister or a friend or hell even my mom.

I’m taking in I’m strong. I can do anything. I am independent. I will be happy!

I am in charge of my life.

I am responsible to organize my life to keep my anxiety down,

I am responsible for going to therapy to keep my depression at bay.

I am responsible for my life.

My new best friend! Got this water jug the other day and after trying 4 different gallon jugs, I finally found the best! Granted it needed some stickers which I luckily brought back from my trip to Colorado, but I love the motivational quotes  haha so if you are trying to drink more water and looking for a new water jug for the gym or life, take it from me, this is the one my dears!! Happy drinking!  

1. Figure out workouts for the week. 🏋🏼‍♂️

2. Meal prep/plan for the week. 🥔🥬

3. Remember to switch from soda to water 💦 🥤

4. Most important, factor in some personal time. Away from the kids. And just focus on myself.

5. Get back on YouTube to help creatively stay on track.

I finally got the text yesterday from my therapist and today’s the day! Getting back on that couch and gonna poor it all out. 

I feel like im slipping away and I'm grasping at anything before I completely fall down this dark hole I'm spiraling down in.

I find myself saying repeatedly, “It’s hard!” I find I say it about everything these days. From getting out of bed in the morning to trying to fall asleep at 1 AM from insomnia the next. The moment I get out of my car with all 3 kids in toe heading into the gym, to battling the anxiety during a workout when I'm finally there. When I step into my house and see the piles of laundry, dishes in the sink, and toys in each room...”this is hard.” 

When I get on the scale and the same number stares up at me, even after a 800 calorie burn at the gym the day before, and countless weeks in the gym, and the calories I forcefully count...”what’s wrong with me?”

When I go get the mail and I see the neighborhood moms in their skinny jeans, high heels, and makeup on, blessfully carrying their babies and not breaking a sweat in the 90 degree heat...even their makeup intact. They exchange plans for playdates, while I walk back to my door. Being 265 lbs, the heat is too much. No one wants to talk to a heat stroked walrus...

I go inside to the bathroom where I have to kick the dirty clothes to see the floor, when I look up in the mirror and see the tight clothes I’m forced to wear because nothing in this world I live in fits me...my hair is greasy and in a bun, no makeup on because my PCOS is making me break out like crazy and it’s been 2 months since a period...I can’t hide...I watch from the window as the other moms laugh and smile...while I burst into tears “do I belong in this world?”

My husband comes home from a night shift...he’s currently forced into sobriety again so today is hard...he would be 2 four locos, a mikes hard lemonade, and a few nips in by now..but for now it’s withdrawals and chew... I didn’t get much sleep since my insomnia and a toddler battling shots and an ear infection...so “I'll babysit the kids so you can sleep in I guess..getting home at 6 am and going to bed at 8 you know.” “I was told you didn’t make the kids lunch today...” Once again I’m reminded, I'm not making it as a mom or a wife...

I battle depression and anxiety...I was diagnosed with PCOS. My hormones control me. I wish they didnt but they do. I dont know who I am anymore. I had enough so I broke down to my husband who later apologized...he didnt realize his withdrawals were part of the issue...but he’s not the only problem. He says he loves me and im doing a great job...but I dont buy it...I'm not. I’m failing in so many ways. Luckily though...I know theres help. I know I'm not alone. I know I’m gonna be ok..I know this will pass...I know it’s not real...but... “it’s hard..” 

My diagnoses: Depression, anxiety, PCOS, and motherhood

It’s been 2 years since I found out I have PCOS. I’ve been trying to lose weight for 2 fucking years. I’m stuck at the same number, 265 lbs. To say I’m pissed is an understatement, granted I did have another baby within that time period, but he's almost 2 and theres no reason why I'm still carrying this weight anymore. 

I’ve been back to the gym for 2 weeks now and I have seen ZERO results. Nothing! If anything I've seen myself gain 3 lbs. The only time I lost weight with PCOS is when I went vegan I lost 15 lbs in just the first month. My goal one day is to get back to that way of life, but right now I'm just trying to get through every hour of the day. Its hard enough tracking calories let alone everything else. 

Another thing that was added this year is an under active thyroid. It finally bit the dust this year. I’ve been monitoring it every year and I've watched it decline, but had hoped I could hold out a bit longer but NOPE, it was time I bit the bullet and went on thyroid medication. I was hoping it’d help with my weight loss but it hasn't. However it has helped a lot with my mood, fatigue, and activity level.
