Here's what: August 7

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

I am finally getting my haircut next week. I haven't had a haircut since I was home in April. As you may remember...I have not had the best luck in Houston. First I went to Vanity (E's salon) and they gave me what could nicely be described as a mullet. When I called the next day to see what could be done to fix it, they let me schedule with a different stylist but made me pay the difference between his level and the level of stylist who did the fist cut. rude. Then someone recommended Visible Changes to me. I know, I know. A chain. In a mall. Really bad haircut. The refunded me and gave me a giftcard and when I went back I did get a better haircut. So now I'm going back to Vanity, but this time going to E and her mom's stylist. Fingers crossed for a good style. Anywho...I'm looking at the four cuts above. Thoughts?

I'm moving in less then three weeks. I really should start packing. But come on. I'm practically a professional at moving by now. I cannot wait to have that much closet space!

I have not been drinking nearly enough water these last few weeks. I'm always thirsty bc it's so effing hot here, but water just doesn't do it for me. Who cares? I need to drink more. So I'm going to try and make the effort to drink way more water while at work and then throughout the rest of the night. Now where's my big water bottle?

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. ...

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 ...

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...
