I’ve already caused a ruckus today. Might as well keep going.
.
Here’s the thing, we all think differently & have different opinions. On top of that, we have different life experiences that change how we think too. Instead of being upset or angry that someone else might think differently than you do, why can’t we just choose to love people even if they do think differently than you do and respect their different opinions?🤷🏼‍♀️
.
Today I had a ton of people unfollow me (👉🏻the shocking part was that a lot of them were people who have literally followed me for YEARS) because I mentioned that our State ___ Mandate is being lifted and that some busisnesses & stores are no longer requiring a “you know what”. It was a completely NEUTRAL statement meant to show some excitement for that things are starting to look up and that it looks like we are getting closer to being back to normal. Because I truly, TRULY believe in my heart that every single one of us is hoping that sometime soon, people won’t be living in fear, can be healthy & our lives can return to normal again!
.
👉🏻So WHY is it that people chose to unfollow today (or were upset) just because I was happy that things looked like they were starting to get better? Or upset that I chose to not wear a ___ because the store got rid of their requirement to wear one? Even after stating that I was more than willing to wear a ___ to be respectful for any store still requiring one??
.
This is why I’m so confused. Our government and our state governments are the ones who told us to wear a ___ right?? When they tell us that we don’t have to wear a ___ anymore or remove a state mandate, we shouldn’t have to wear one unless we feel more comfortable doing so. If you are following the advice of the government and their medical teams to wear one to begin with, shouldn’t it be ok for people to follow their guidance when they say it’s ok to take them off?
.
Why can’t we just respect other’s opinions, decisions & choose to love them UNCONDITIONALLY, even if they don’t think the way we do? Can we not still be friends or love people who might think differently than we do? Has it really come to that? I’m truly so confused💔

I think I love travel so much because it’s a tim

I think I love travel so much because it’s a time to re-connect with Brady…WITHOUT all the “stuff” and gives you a break from real life. Does that even make sense? Gosh, that sounds bad.🙈 But you know what I mean… when you’ve been married so long with kids, a lot of your time & conversations are about the kids, schedules, finances…. I mean, you are basically running a business with you and your spouse juggling all the things that need to be done and taken care of.
.
But on a vacation? All of that disappears for a few days! It’s dreamy🤩, just the two of you, without any responsibilities and an opportunity to remember to have fun!
.
🌟TRAVEL TIP #3: That’s a big reason why our “FUN Savings” account we build up is mostly spent on travel! I mean, I love traveling for lots of reasons… but reconnecting & creating memories with Brady or our kids is a big one.😉
.
👉🏻If you’ve missed me talking about that before, we put 10% of our income in an emergency savings account. And then another 10% in a FUN SAVINGS account for anything fun we want to do as a family! It’s a great way to save up for vacations! (And since we are religious, we also choose to pay 10% tithing to our church, which also helps with humanitarian efforts for people around the world)
.
💬Do you have a FUN SAVINGS? Have you started one? (I’ve talked about it a ton over the years so you’ve probably heard me mention it before.😂)
.
👉🏻DID YOU MISS MY FIRST 2 TRAVEL TIPS POST?? Go back a few posts, if you missed them. They were GOOD ones! I have a couple more travel tips to share later this week too!

TRAVEL TIP #1: ✈️Can we talk travel? You know

TRAVEL TIP #1: ✈️Can we talk travel? You know what’s crazy? With all the travel we typically do (not this past year, cuz ya know!😜), FREE UPGRADES on flights are harder to come by—especially to First Class, and even more especially on the Delta One Lie-Down Seats! But during this past year, it’s been so different....
.
When we started making travel more of a priority, we decided that we needed to chose ✨ONE AIRLINE✨ we were going to fly so we could capitalize on racking up miles for free flights & free upgrades. (I mean, who doesn’t want FREE Flights right?!) Spreading ourselves out to different airlines each time we flew made it hard to do that—-having some miles over here and some miles over there. Because of our home airport hub and the fact that we travel internationally quite a bit, we went with Delta.
.
On top of that, we do have Delta AMEX cards that we use and pay off in full each month to rack up even more points, which equal FREE flights🙌🏻 and a higher Skymiles status so we can get free upgrades to First Class, like this flight we did over Christmas!😱👊🏻
.
🌟I even created our kids their own Skymiles accounts a few years ago so they could rack up points (that never expire!) for Free Flights too—WITHOUT a credit card.😍
.
💬Do any of you guys do anything similar? Or have you been thinking about it? I’m feeling a NEED to start booking all the trips to make up for lost travel time!😂
.
💥Would love to share TRAVEL TIPS this next week & share a new travel experience we had last week, if you are up for it? Like this post👍🏻 or LMK below if there are specific questions you want answered about travel right now too😘

Um, we got rid of Easter Baskets this morning. And

Um, we got rid of Easter Baskets this morning. And you know what shocked me? The kids didn’t even mind!😳
.
Last night at 9pm, I realized we had completely forgotten to do anything for Easter Baskets. (#whoops!) I’ve never dropped the ball like that. As Brady and I were talking, we decided that maybe this happened for a reason and it was time to make Easter Sunday ONLY about Christ, using the Resurrection Eggs I told you about earlier.
.
Our kids woke up this morning wondering why the Easter Bunny didn’t come. We asked them why we celebrated Easter and they answered that it was about Christ. After explaining that without Christ and the Resurrection we would never be able to have our bodies again after we die, and that that is kind of a big deal to celebrate, the kids even agreed that Sunday should be a day about Christ. And they were 100% ok (and even excited!) to let us hide the Resurrection Eggs and then open and use them to tell the story of the Resurrection. It honestly went way better than I even hoped it would be! Man, kids surprise you sometimes!
.
Grandma does have a pretty over-the-top, super fun Easter Egg Hunt the day before Easter. (I mean, it’s bigger than Christmas for her!) So I think moving forward we will let Saturday be the fun Easter Day and let Grandma do her thing and Sunday be a Christ Only Day for us at home.
.
Holidays are so fun. But I know our family could use a little more focusing on Jesus.
.
Hope you guys have had a great Easter Weekend with your families!! Do anything fun or celebrate in a cool way?

😭Today was a huge day for me! I FINALLY hit a G

😭Today was a huge day for me! I FINALLY hit a Goal I’ve been working on for years!
.
🌟January 2018: 36.9% Body Fat
🌟April 2021: 13.5% Body Fat🙌🏻
.
I gained 60 pounds pregnant with Devyn, 45 pounds pregnant with Rockwell... and struggled with so many medical problems and issues after my babies you would die laughing at the straight craziness of it all.
.
Over the last few years, I’ve tried workout programs left & right, dealt with food sensitivities/issues, found out I had zero testosterone & hormone issues, diagnosed with metabolic resistance syndrome & insulin resistant, dealt with endometriosis since I was 22 & even had to have an emergency hysterectomy. I mean, the hits kept coming! 🥊 😵
.
I knew it COULD be done. So it was never an issue of “IF”….it was more of a “WHEN”…cuz man, that took way longer than I ever thought it would.🥵 Because I knew logically that if something wasn’t working correctly, something was “off” or wrong, or I was doing something wrong to not see results, there had to be solutions right? I had to find what worked for my body, what didn’t and how to treat it right and LOSE WEIGHT in a HEALTHY WAY!
.
So yeah, today I’m pumped! I’m not perfect. By body isn’t perfect. And honestly, I don’t want it to be or need it to be. But I FEEL better than I ever have. And I look better & am healthier at almost 40 than I ever was when I was younger!🤯 It’s been years in the making and I’m proud of myself for not giving up!
.
If you’re in the same boat, follow @TheMeleaShowFIT I created it to share stuff that’s only health & fitness. Since it was so hard for me, I wanted a place to share all the things that actually worked for me in case it can help you troubleshoot too!
.
#momife is already hard and some of you work too! Hopefully the @themeleashowfit account saves you time & helps you get where you want to be faster!😘

I’ve been on hiatus trying to figure out what to

I’ve been on hiatus trying to figure out what to do! For those of you who have been following since F2D blog days, I love that you’ve stuck around so long & I’ve loved being able to meet so many of you in person!
.
I know a lot of you wish for the good ol’ F2D blog days where I shared nothing but deals. But I won’t be going back to that & don’t want my focus on it. (EXCEPT for Black Friday Month!) When I say it nearly destroyed our family, I was very, VERY serious. I still love a good deal, I still hate paying full price….always will. But I’ve tried soooo long to post all the things everyone wants… and I’m learning that I will never be able to make everyone happy (as much as I would love to!)
.
So in order for ME to be happy, I need to post & share the things that make ME happy & things that get me excited.
.
I’m not the same person I was 11 years ago and I bet you aren’t either. We all change💗
.
My kids are older now and I’ve finally gotten time to find “me” again. I’ve made time to re-connect with things I’ve ALWAYS been passionate about but were put on the back burner due to the stage of #momlife & mommyhood I was in… I now have more time to better myself & find new things I am passionate about too. And I do love sharing those things, in hopes it can help make your life easier too!
.
I realize that may not be what some of you guys are looking for or what you want for me. And if that’s the case, I totally understand if you need to Unfollow and find accounts that are more “deal only” oriented or accounts with more things that you are personally interested in.
.
What kind of random things would you share with a BFF? That’s exactly the kind of stuff I want to share! The “Oh my gosh, have your heard of _____” or “I had that same problem and this worked for me” kind of things…
.
I hope the things I share, whether it be health, fitness, beauty, fashion, travel, exclusive deals on my tested favorites or even my personal experiences, help make your life easier.
.
If you’re here for it all, WELCOME AGAIN! And if what I’m choosing to do moving forward isn’t a good fit for you, I 100% wish you the absolute best and you are always welcome to come back!😘~Melea

I know a lot of you are silent watchers but I NEED

I know a lot of you are silent watchers but I NEED YOU!!🙏🏻 Your comments and likes on my posts mean the world to me. Not only that, without them I get left hanging not knowing what you want to see more of, what helped you or what kind of things you want more of.
.
If I’m being 100% honest, I’m at a big pivot point in my personal life and also with what I share online. ✨YOU✨make a difference with what I focus on & what I spend my time posting or filming.
.
I know time is precious for you. (It is to me too! And that’s why I need you even more right now!🙏🏻 I only have so much time with shortened school days... on top of trying to be more present for my family. But I don’t want to completely walk away from what I do here online either.🥺It’s given me joy for so many years! )
.
So if you do like what I’m sharing or creating to help you guys, please take a second and 👍🏻LIKE my posts and/or comment moving forward. I’ve never been more confused with a direction to head... and although a lot of people think “likes” are just a vanity number. It isn’t to me. 🌟👉🏻It helps me decide what to post more of. 💥They are also crucial to get brands to give us more exclusive deals too!
.
So if you’re more of the silent watcher (I get it, cuz sometimes I am too😉), I’d love for you to even just LIKE the posts you do like or appreciate that you see from my accounts.🙏🏻
.
😘THANKS FOR BEING HERE & STICKING AROUND! Through the bad, the good and the hard times. I know it’s been a rough year for most of us. Hang in there. 💗LOVE YOU!

ICYMI, I’m adding something new to hopefully make things a little easier for you guys!🙌🏻I get asked about my modest (👉🏻AFFORDABLE!) fashion finds all of the time. And while I am definitely not in the same league as all those awesome fashion bloggers😉, I do have a passion for finding awesome, affordable, cute, even sexy outfits that are still modest! 😱Impossible you say?? No way. It’s just a little harder to find.
.
🌟So I’m basically starting a polaroid lookbook of different modest & affordable outfits (my fav workout outfits will be there too😉) and will link you to each item on my stories with a swipe up. 💥They will stay permanently over on my Instagram homepage under the “Outfits” story bubble. So you can go to it any time to tap through to get a direct link to whatever item you are hoping to find.👏🏻
.
And since I’m always deal hunting, the majority of things will be affordable! Some might even have exclusive coupon codes for us!😍Even better, right?!
.
I’m hoping this can help you guys save time by helping you find cute, affordable (and MODEST!) fashion finds too! (Or my tried & tested, favorite workout gear, if you are into that sort of thing 😉)🎉🙌🏻
.
👍🏻👍🏻LIKE THIS POST, if you are excited about this new feature!
.
🌟Outfit Details:
(💥DIRECT LINKS to each & every item below on my Instagram homepage link, stories or saved “OUTFIT” bubble too🙌🏻)
✨ Jeans: Use code MELEA10 to get an extra 10% off! (The cutest jeans ever UNDER $50 with our code?! Yes please!) ✨ Jacket: BlankNYC (These are 40% off today too!😱 Maroon Might be gone. But a ton of super cute colors!)
✨ White V-Neck Tee: This is $4.99 from H&M Guys! It’s fitted but still loose! My favorite combo. Also love how the short sleeves are a little longer and more flattering on the arms!
✨ Shoes: I have these in Black & Tan and wear them more than any other pairs I own! (And only $33 REG price!😱)
✨ Earrings: Do yourself a favor and grab these! I own them in Gold, Silver and Brass. Literally the coolest & one my most favorite styles I own! Use code MELEA to get 15% off Sitewide too!🙌🏻

I’ve already caused a ruckus today. Might as well keep going.
.
Here’s the thing, we all think differently & have different opinions. On top of that, we have different life experiences that change how we think too. Instead of being upset or angry that someone else might think differently than you do, why can’t we just choose to love people even if they do think differently than you do and respect their different opinions?🤷🏼‍♀️

Because I truly, TRULY believe in my heart that every single one of us is hoping that sometime soon, people won’t be living in fear, can be healthy & our lives can return to normal again!

Or upset that I chose to not wear a ___ because the store got rid of their requirement to wear one? Even after stating that I was more than willing to wear a ___ to be respectful for any store still requiring one??

This is why I’m so confused. Our government and our state governments are the ones who told us to wear a ___ right??

Why can’t we just respect other’s opinions, decisions & choose to love them UNCONDITIONALLY, even if they don’t think the way we do? Can we not still be friends or love people who might think differently than we do? Has it really come to that? I’m truly so confused💔

.
So if you do like what I’m sharing or creating to help you guys, please take a second and 👍🏻LIKE my posts and/or comment moving forward. I’ve never been more confused with a direction to head... and although a lot of people think “likes” are just a vanity number. It isn’t to me. 🌟👉🏻It helps me decide what to post more of. 💥They are also crucial to get brands to give us more exclusive deals too!
.
So if you’re more of the silent watcher (I get it, cuz sometimes I am too😉), I’d love for you to even just LIKE the posts you do like or appreciate that you see from my accounts.🙏🏻
.
😘THANKS FOR BEING HERE & STICKING AROUND! Through the bad, the good and the hard times. I know it’s been a rough year for most of us. Hang in there. 💗LOVE YOU!

ICYMI, I’m adding something new to hopefully make things a little easier for you guys!🙌🏻I get asked about my modest (👉🏻AFFORDABLE!) fashion finds all of the time. And while I am definitely not in the same league as all those awesome fashion bloggers😉, I do have a passion for finding awesome, affordable, cute, even sexy outfits that are still modest! 😱Impossible you say?? No way. It’s just a little harder to find.
.
🌟So I’m basically starting a polaroid lookbook of different modest & affordable outfits (my fav workout outfits will be there too😉) and will link you to each item on my stories with a swipe up. 💥They will stay permanently over on my Instagram homepage under the “Outfits” story bubble. So you can go to it any time to tap through to get a direct link to whatever item you are hoping to find.👏🏻
.
And since I’m always deal hunting, the majority of things will be affordable! Some might even have exclusive coupon codes for us!😍Even better, right?!
.
I’m hoping this can help you guys save time by helping you find cute, affordable (and MODEST!) fashion finds too! (Or my tried & tested, favorite workout gear, if you are into that sort of thing 😉)🎉🙌🏻
.
👍🏻👍🏻LIKE THIS POST, if you are excited about this new feature!
