Weekend updates 5.16.16

I had a boring, relaxing weekend...and I loved it.

Friday night was very low key, just a few people over some fights with pizza, hummus, too much cheese and just a few drinks.

Saturday started relatively early with a few miles in the gym followed by brunch at one of my favorite lunch spots - Adair Kitchen. I'd never been for brunch, but I'll def go back. The only thing not work it was the mimosas. #SuperFail Way too much OJ and not enough champagne for the price.

Sunday was hot yoga followed by a trip to Costco. Bad idea. Stay as far away from Costco on the weekends as you can. People everywhere. And everyone was moving at the pace of a snail. A whole lot of nothing happened for a few hours after that...who wants to do anything in all this rain?! Not me. Five miles on the treadmill later and it was time for pizza at whole foods.

My goal for this week is to meal prep, eat as clean as I can and do two-a-days for at least four days. I really need to stop with the 2 and 3 miles runs and up my mileage. And running always feels so much better/easier when I go to yoga in the morning but that 5:30 or 6:30am class is always a little iffy.

I do have a few plans that may make things difficult - a possible work lunch tomorrow, dinner Weds night and Thurs night...but I'm going to do my best and not be too hard on myself is I slip, as long as it's only a little.

Adair Kitchen ftw

Shenanigans at the Galleria


This is what we did  most of the weekend. #BreaksAreGood

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 ...

Are these really the same shoes?

I was so excited to order the pink nike pegasus sneakers that I was swooning over last week. After everything that happened, it was my way of cheering my self up. Then they came in the mail. Now don't get me wrong, I still love them, but I don't love them as much. In person, they are much darker than the picture would have you believe. They are even darker than the picture I took. Must be something about this pink, it always looks brighter in the photo. They look so similar in these pictures. But in person. It's almost a different shoe. Oh well. At least they were on sale. In unrelated news...I called the insurance company on the premise of telling them I was moving but really just wanting an update on my claim. Well the really nice man at State Farm took my banking info so that I wouldn't miss the check, it would just be direct deposited. And he forwarded my claim to someone else to make sure they get started working on. Fingers crossed maybe they will get it d...

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...
