How’s everyone participating in the 7 week challenge doing? We’re just about halfway through week 1, making it a great time to applaud ourselves for the great things we’ve done and to make a few changes before Friday. Highlights Went for a great run/walk Saturday morning Did Jillian Michaels’ Body Revolution Cardio 1 Monday morning…
The 7 week challenge really couldn’t have come at a better time! I have just been feeling so heavy lately. Bloated…pudgy…overweight…you name it. Weighing in at 230 pounds on Saturday just magnified what I’ve been feeling lately. I’ve felt disgusting in my clothes lately and seeing that number on the scale just sucked! A few…
After a wonderful Saturday morning, Neal and I headed to Northeast DC to visit Union Market. Union Market, which dates back to the late 1800′s, resides in a historical area of Washington, DC. Union Market has had many different looks over the years, but the market that stands today is vibrant, diverse, and full of…
Today is the official kickoff of the 7 week challenge. Over the next 7 weeks I invite you to make a change. Change your habits. Change your diet. Change your workouts. Change your life. Come June 21, the first day of summer, I hope you’ll well better about yourself and your life, ready to enjoy…
On June 21, the first day of summer, how do you want to feel? Do you want to feel comfortable in your summer clothes? Do you want to layout by the pool without your insecurities resting on your shoulders (or waist in my case)? Well it’s not too late to feel great on the first…
In April I… Went to opening day Transitioned to spring Talked about either being on a diet or breaking my diet Saw Jillian Michaels Shared my middle school experience as an obese kid April Pinterest Favorites… Making the Most of Your Weekdays Key Lime Pie Greek Frozen Yogurt Roasted Vegetable Pasta Salad April Goals Revisited…
I’ve been on a mission these days to find new lunches for the work week. Lunches that I can make ahead of time and are full flavor and veggies. I love pasta salads, and after seeing pesto at the grocery store I had an idea… This salad is SO delicious and SO easy to make. …
I honestly could not have asked for a better weekend. The past two weeks have been rough but this weekend really helped to turn things around. It all started Friday when I made the decision to start making the most of my Monday through Friday! Friday night I went on an amazing date with Neal,…
Saturday morning I attended SELF Magazine’s first ever Workout on the Quad!! 2013 marks the 20th anniversary of the Workout in the Park, and their first year holding the event on a college campus. This year, American University in Washington DC won the chance to host the event on their quad through Her Campus. The…
Last night Neal and I went on a much needed date!! It’s so easy to get wrapped up in our schedules and commitments, making it really important for us to get out of the house and to go on dates. Last night we went to see 42, which was an absolutely amazing movie!! Every year…
I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately and I just don’t think it’s good to feel so desperate for the weekend! Shouldn’t our Monday through Friday be great enough that by the time the weekend hits it’s just a time to get things done before starting up the work week again? I’m definitely guilty…
It’s so surreal, but I saw Jillian Michaels last night on the DC leg of her Maximize Your Life tour!!! It was such a fun night and boy do I have a lot to share… Before the show, I met up with my Katy, Jessica, Becky, and Jennie at Matchbox in Chinatown. It was so…
3 years ago today I ran my first half marathon in Nashville, TN with Team in Training. Running the Country Music Half Marathon was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, starting back in November 2009 when I signed up. When I signed up for the half marathon I was only running 1-2 miles…
It’s no secret, but I absolutely love key lime pie. It started back when I was a little kid and we’d visit my Grandpa and Nana in Florida. I’ll never forget when my Nana took me along to pick up some pies from the local bakery. For whatever reason, that memory has always stayed close…
This was such a refreshing weekend for me! After two weekends traveling for football games, it was so nice being home. Since our game was in Baltimore Saturday night, I was able to spend Saturday running errands, doing things around the house, and resting. Saturday morning Neal and I enjoyed breakfast and a little shopping…
