Just got back home from the gym and just so happy to not be at work right now. Today was my first day back from my long weekend and it dragged. I feel like I'm just so excited for it to be spring already so my days can be longer, and I can be outside more. I think I've just never cared about spring and summer before until now, and I'm just ready for winter to be done. I wouldn't want to live somew... » Continue Reading
Back home from a mini vacation. I did a girls trip with friends over this weekend. It was really fun and nice just to hang out in a cabin. Definitely could have been a longer vacation, but I was really excited to get back to routine. I didn't go really off the rails with eating and kept taking my vitamins, and read still, but was happy to get back to normal. I ended up taking today off to just han... » Continue Reading

So it's been two weeks since the second of January where I "officially" started going to the gym regularly and doing other things to better myself this year. So far, it's been going really well. Here are things I have been doing: Going to the gym six days a week walking six days a week for a mile Reading every day making my bed every day in the morning doing dishes every day » Continue Reading
Did an at home workout today. I haven't done mat exercises in a while, but when I was thinking about doing an at home workout it made me think of the exercises I used to do. I should probably in the future start doing these more often because they would be good to do. The mat exercises consisted of: Plank On all fours side kicks Donkey kicks Single leg glute bridges Glute bridges Crunches Flutter ... » Continue Reading
Right now, it's two degrees out and I'm in my house in my bear onesie. A little bit ago my boyfriend and I walked to the coffee shop a little over a mile away from us. I decided today was going to be my rest day but wanted to get in some kind of physical activity. It's been snowing allll day today, so we had a lot of snow. I think we've gotten over seven inches here. It was still coming down on th... » Continue Reading
Well I'm glad I worked out today. We went out and got birria tacos, birria grilled cheese, birria fries, and wings. It was a heavy dinner for sure. Also got a couple of drinks, but made sure to do dishes, read a chapter of my book, and blog here to stay on all my tasks. Doing the things I need to do even when I've gone out eaten "bad" and gotten some drinks will keep me on track and I won't feel l... » Continue Reading
So going to the gym has been going really well. I've only had one rest day where I didn't go. I'm not worried about going too often because when I go I don't go really hard. I really want to ease myself into workouts. I just know if I push myself out of my comfort zone too soon, I'm going to get burnt out. Right now it's just about making the gym and all of the other things I'm working on habit. ... » Continue Reading
I've been eating healthier for a few years now so I've found some snacks and meals I like. I'm a pretty big snacker so a lot of the foods I've tried are more snacky. Here are some pictures of the foods I've been liking. If anyone reads this, let me know if you have any good healthy snacks you'd recommend! Big Raspberry Rye Cookies Avoc » Continue Reading
The snow is coming down today. We all knew it was going to happen obviously, they told us. I'm still hoping to get to the gym. It's upper body day! My least favorite area to work out, but I still want to do it. I'm literally four minutes away. The main roads look fine enough and it's not cold enough for anything to freeze. It's literally just snow. Of course everyone is very scared of snow on the ... » Continue Reading
Today wasn't a gym day, but I did do a bike ride to get soup with a friend. We rode out to our downtown area to meet another friend for soup and then we went to a bar to play pool. It was cold, but it was really nice doing a ride. With the snow we knew was coming, yesterday was very nice weather wise compared to today. I've been trying to consistently ride all year even if there's snow on the grou... » Continue Reading
