Here's what: June 26

It's been a long, short week. Does that make sense? No, just me? So much has gone on, but at the same time today is my Friday. Yay. So anywho...Here's what three things I'm obsessed with this week...



We all know I love any Olympic sport. Today the U.S. plays world #2 Germany in what could be their final match of the 2014 World Cup. And apparently it is raining so hard where they are playing in Brazil that the U.S. team's family and friends have decided not to make the trek to the stadium as it is too treacherous outside. There are reports of up to two feet of standing water in the streets! The U.S. and Germany have four points apiece and Portugal and Ghana each have one point heading into the final match of the group stage.  The scenarios to advance vary wildly.


Moving into a new place is totally an excuse to redecorate. Not that I want to refurnish my entire apartment, but it will be fin to switch things up.  I saw this on pinterest (duh), its just fabric that was pinned to the wall and then you "paint" liquid starch over it. I could totally do that. Maybe. Also...that fridge! And it's just gold duck tape!

 

Summer dresses. I have, like, one. I def need more. It would be nice to have them for the beach. And I am still obsessed with this jumpsuit that I found last summer...and it's still available...but how many people really can pull off a jumpsuit?

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 ...

Weekend

I love weekends. I wish they were longer...doesn't everybody? It was quite the lazy weekend too, being that it was so hot out. I ran Sunday...kind of. It was so hot, I hadn't had enough water, or food for that matter, so I cut my run short. And then we opted to eat out instead of cooking. I really need to cook this week. And maybe not drink. Except I have half a bottle of red left over from last night's Bachelorette finale fiesta with E.  Monday. Oh Monday. Cancelled my run once again when the car told me it was 102 outside. Can't wait to be able to run in the mornings. Last night was the Bachelorette season finale so E came over for dinner and some wine. I now love sweet potatoes and I may have had a little too much to drink. And then decided it was a good time to update my iOS on my iphone. I'm still trying to get my phone back to where it should be. It made me do a complete restore, then I couldn't restore from a current backup and when I was f...

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...
