Remember to be lifting weights, getting your cardio in and watching what you eat!!! You CANNOT FAIL if you are doing those 3 things.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\nOne more thing about watching your nutrition. If you are counting calories then remember that calories are good for you. Also, don&#8217;t get too wrapped up in being completely exact and perfect with it. God wants us to live a healthy lifestyle and still have discipline but not be obsessed. There&#8217;s such a fine line sometimes with eating. I&#8217;ve been on both spectrums of being too crazy about what I eat and then not caring at all with what I&#8217;m doing&#8230;either aren&#8217;t really good for me. Just remember that if you&#8217;re keeping out processed food (something I am a stickler on) and eating a diet high in fruits and vegetables (God foods) then you can&#8217;t go too wrong if you&#8217;re watching portions and not stuffing yourself. Coupled with your exercise routine, it should all fit into place.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>12\/15\/12 My Hannah is 2 months old!
