If you haven’t seen my previous post about Always Eat After 7 PM, you can check that here. I will be doing a series of 4 posts each week to update you on tips for the book and some progress I have noticed.

I feel like we bored snack over here, so I am hoping we can change our eating habits, or just make wise healthy food choices that will allow my husband and I to lose some extra pounds we have packed on this year.

Is there really a life after kids? Not really! Lol

I commend those that somehow find the time or the babysitter to take care of the kiddos, but over here, date nights are so rare with my husband that I feel like we’re back at square one and don’t even know how to have adult conversations anymore. They all consist of the girls or things our girls like. It’s almost awkward, so if anyone has any advice, I am all ears! 😂
