Here's what: June 13

I think I said this last week too, but I have been so busy at work. It's looking like things might calm down next week. And we're still in our "summer schedule" so I have a three day weekend!

So here's what three things I'm obsessed with this week.

I think I'm going to do this two day cleanse, starting tomorrow. I had been eating pretty healthy until this week. After our press conference on Tuesday I had cookies for lunch and sushi and prosecco for dinner. And then yesterday I had a healthy lunch but I could not stop snacking all day and then met G for a BBQ dinner. Not my best week. Oh and did I mention the two donuts for breakfast today? Ya, so I need to kick start my way back into healthy eating. I've done this one before. It's a decent amount of food and pretty easy to follow.

I'm back on the tattoo bandwagon. I want another one (sorry mom). I have a goal in mind that, if I reach this summer, I might allow myself another tattoo. But I have rules with my tats. They need to be easily concealable. And unless its really special, no color. I kind of like the little skull above, but I don't really know why. It doesn't mean anything to me and all of mine mean something. Maybe I'll add to the one on my ribs.

I need to get running again. I'm slowly getting back into it. But I would like to build my mileage back up to, I don't know, maybe 20 miles a week. That's not a lot. It's certainly doable. I'm going to try to convince K to run tomorrow morning on our day off, she just doesn't know it yet.

Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder?

The I can't believe it's been about seven months since the last time I posted a blog. Did you even notice I was gone? So much has happened in the time that I have been gone. I'm not sure I would be able to get the whole story out or even know where to start. The 2017 #HouMarathon, the twin's last chemo and radiation treatments, me accepting a new position with Susan G. Komen Houston, Aunt Sandy practically in remission, I lost Lola, I got Jewels, my second trip to Denver, my little sister's wedding...the list goes on and on. It's been a very rocky eight months. Personally, professionally, any way you want to look at. But I'm moving into a great place in my life right now and that's all I can ask for. I was devastated just over a month ago when I lost Lola. She was having trouble breathing one night and by lunch the next day the vet had told me there was nothing they could do. Tumor in her left atrium. I had to let her go that afternoon. ...

New Goals - Lean

So I finally went back for my follow up body fat test last Tuesday. I didn't really know what to expect. I knew I had lost some weight and I could see more muscle definition, but I wasn't sure. I told myself I would be happy with anything under 30% since I was 33.8 the last time I went. So of course in the lead up to the test I had like 5 cheat meals. Insert eye roll here. Saturday was margaritas and Mexican for dinner. Sunday was brunch and champagne and pizza. And then Monday was more Mexican bc of Sunday. Whoops. Clearly I had to run Tuesday morning before the test. hahahaha Then at lunch time I headed over to visit Heather. The got a new machine that's so supposed to be even more accurate than the BodPod and you don't even have to strip down lol. So my new results were: Weight - 147.6 Body Fat - 27.8 So I lost 6.3 pounds and 6% body fat. Total time elapsed between tests was 16 weeks. This places me in the moderately lean category for women. Moving fo...

Here's what: August 15

Here's what three things I'm obsessed with this week... If you haven't seen this photo of Usain Bolt winning the men's 100m at the IAAF World Championships, you might be living under a rock. There are five sessions, and some pretty good events, left to go at Worlds. And Team USA is currently sitting atop the medal table with a total of 10 medals - 4 gold, 5 silver and 1 bronze. So...I joined a local running club. And I signed up for the marathon training program! Not that I'm signed up for an actual marathon or anything. This particular training group is training for my race, so I can't exactly run that. There are weekly track sessions and long runs are on Saturdays. The program lasts for 22 weeks. Well but we've already missed two weeks bc of other commitments. E and I will be doing this together. We'll see how this goes. Towards the end of September is something called Social Media Week. It is a leading media platform and worldwide event ...

Fabulous Run
