Got lost

Well, we are back in the states and I have been slacking!! I have a lot to write about but I have just been out of it. I am getting back into my whole groove though. Today marks day 1 of working towards my goals! I plan to start using keek and making my own YouTube videos. We started receiving visits from our own elf this year. Her name is Cindy Lou! She's starting to cause a ruckus! :) but I love it. Stay tuned, the plan to keep up has begun!!

Almost HOME

We are six days out from leaving Okinawa!!! I am one happy momma! I can NOT wait to see my mom and my dad and of course my other 2 babies, (my other 2 dogs!). I of course have all my weird other reasons why I can't wait to get home. I have all my fun boxes sitting at my mom's house right now waiting for me to open them and play! Not only do I have a few for me but I do have some for the girls and of course some for my four legged babies as well! I will be posting as soon as I get home and get the chance and I will also be starting my youtube channel once I get home! :) Keep an eye for that. I just need to get through until Tuesday when we move into TLF because being in this house still makes me all stressed out because that means we are NOT done with everything yet and that is NOT good. Hurry up 10th!!! :)

LOreal Nail Polish Review

Ok, to start off with I should explain that I <3 data-blogger-escaped-amazing="amazing" data-blogger-escaped-andpainting="andpainting" data-blogger-escaped-br="br" data-blogger-escaped-done="done" data-blogger-escaped-fallen="fallen" data-blogger-escaped-getting="getting" data-blogger-escaped-hate="hate" data-blogger-escaped-have="have" data-blogger-escaped-i="i" data-blogger-escaped-in="in" data-blogger-escaped-is="is" data-blogger-escaped-it="it" data-blogger-escaped-love="love" data-blogger-escaped-my="my" data-blogger-escaped-nail="nail" data-blogger-escaped-nails="nails" data-blogger-escaped-own="own" data-blogger-escaped-polish="polish" data-blogger-escaped-relationship="relationship" data-blogger-escaped-short="short" data-blogger-escaped-so="so" data-blogger-escaped-this="this" data-blogger-escaped-with="with">
Now with that said, I have been in Okinawa for almost 4 years! They really only have Sally Hansen nail polish which lets be honest is 100% ok with me. My ONLY complaint is that I am rough on my nails and they chip very easily! While doing my normal YouTube checkup I saw that nguerriero19 was talking about the new LOreal colors! The color that I want of course we have NOT had here so I wasn't going to buy a color but then I saw "now you sea me" and YES!! It was a total hit! Glad I made the choice to go with it. It's a grey/blue/green color! I'm in LOVE! I have had it on for about 4 days now and I have beat the crap out of my nails packing/moving/cleaning!! They are taking the beating though!!

One picture is of when I first painted them and the other is after 4 days of torture! (Or so I say!) If you are looking for a color that has a bit of a staying power I suggest trying out LOreal! I am very impressed and will be buying more colors as soon as I land in the good ol US of A!! :-)

October Foodie Penpal Reveal (theleangreenbean)

It's that time of month again!! :-) It's the reveal day for theleangreenbean.com (foodie penpal!!) my penpal this month was awesome! Everything I got was pretty much homemade! She sent me homemade salsa and I of course ate like all of it but before I did that I had to make some guacamole!! :-) She also sent honey straight from the bee farm. OMG!! It's amazing! I want to eat it on everything. Even my husband try's to eat it all. Ok I <3 apple butter. It's one of my childhood favs. She sent me some!! Homemade of course! :-)! Wow!! I don't think I've ever had such amazing apple butter. Next she sent the dry ingredients to some pancakes. Oh yeah, I was happy eating them. They went perfect with the honey and apple butter. Finally she sent along some organic blue corn chips. Those were amazing! I will have to stock up on them that's for sure. So yes! I was VERY pleased with my box this month! :-) If you haven't checked it out yet run on over to theleangreenbean.com and try it!! ;-)

My Colorful Harvest

Today we decided to go ahead and do one of the projects from their kiwicrate.com box. It was the "My colorful harvest" and it was actually a lot of fun. My two year old was getting into it but then she decided that she didnt want to do it anymore and I had to finish the project for her! :) It's ok though because I enjoyed the time with the kids today.
 
The project today was to make the fruits and veggies! As you can see it was a pear, apple, carrot, and eggplant. It was fruit and vegetable fabric and you had to "sew" them together with the laces. Once you got most of it "sewn" together you had to stuff them with cotton balls then you finished up "sewing" and tada you have your fruit or veggie!

As you can see, the little one seemed all tuckered out and the other one was like ummm what else can we do right now! :) We will be doing the other project tomorrow I think! :)

Our First Wonder Box

As you know, me and my boxes!! I decided to get the girls the wonder box from education.com and let me tell you that I LOVE this box! Ok I know I know, I LOVE all my boxes but I can't help it! There are just too many good/great boxes out there and of course I'm getting my hands on them. I'm not going to start anything in this box yet because we are two weeks out from getting on that plane and going to the states. I will be putting this in our suitcase though and doing this over the holidays. As you can see the theme for this box is "Nature" and there are four different things you can do and a list of things you can do depending on the time that you have. As we actually do the things in this box I will make sure to post!

October Foodie Penpal #1

SOOO, as you can see I joined another foodie penpal program. OMG, and did I LOVE this box! With this program you actually send to the person that sends to you. My penpal sent me all this fun food from Mexico and some coffee too. AHHH, I LOVE coffee! He was great with e-mailing and chatting before sending my box. Since I had NO idea what each thing was he sent me a letter telling what each thing was and what it goes with. Let's just say my kids were fighting me for this one. Even my husband was happy to see this one! ;) foodiepenpal.com go check it out!

Vox Box

Well, I got my voxbox!! How very exciting!!! :-) sadly though I won't actually be able to touch and play with all my new stuff!! :-( Anyways, let me fill you in!

I went on influenster.com and made an account with them. Of course I started working on my badges right away! :-)!!! I was picked for the beauty blog box! How exciting right?!?! (Ok I find it to be VERY exciting)! Now I get to try out these great products and review them!

I had them send it to my mothers address because we are in the process of moving from Okinawa, Japan back to the states! So I do not get to do my video :-(.

I am excited for the bath&body candle because 1. I love me some candles and 2. Pumpkin is my favorite of all time and of course it's pumpkin :-)! The spin pin I have been dieing to try out so as soon as we get back that will be my first toy! The NYC palate is perfect especially with the holidays right around the corner! Even more so with the holidays coming the lashes are perfect! Always like to go a tad but more glam around this time of year! Plus my bday is around the corner as well. And of course the boost drink and not your mothers hair cream are also on my todo list as soon as we are back! I will make sure to do a follow up post since I don't have the products in hand at the moment!!! :-)

PetsLoveToys

 
I have to admit that I LOVE me some petslovetoys.com! It is completly worth it. I ended up ordering a tad bit early in the month but I am ok with it! :) As you can see Naoki loves her new box. Everything that came in it she loved and she eats.
 
As before I stated that she LOVES to play tug so ropes are her thing, and in this box there was a tug type toy. I like it because it has the handle on it and my daughters like it for that reason to because it makes it easier for them to hold on to with her.
 
Smokehouse sticks/bones are PERFECT. These are the first I have seen her take it and be all excited for. Glad that we got these again this time around. I will have to make sure that we keep getting these too.
 
There were 3 different things from whole life and I think these are a keeper. They are freeze dry food. Nothing added. They were lamb/beef liver and sweet potatoes. :)! Oh yeah, she loved them! Also she got sojos. 100% natural and they were bacon cheddar flavor.
 
They are changing the prices but honestly I do not care because I will continue to keep getting boxes from them. The prices are now going to be $19.95 for small-medium dogs and $24.95 for large-x-large dogs. I believe that they will continue to do free shipping as well but I am not 100% sure on that one.
 
BUT YES, I do suggest that EVERYONE that is a pet parent go and check them out! :)

Day 3

Day 3 and I am getting BETTER!! :) Good feeling knowing that I am able to keep going longer. It kills but its a good pain! :)

Salad is the same as yesterday but I couldn't help myself because its REALLY REALLY yummy! :-)

Of course, SHAKEOLOGY!! What can I say, it really is yummy. I really can't believe I took myself off of it! What was I thinking!?

Day 18

My flexability is a little off these days! I have to get back to my stretches!!
 
YES, I do use this as my sunblock BUT only for my face. I really do not use anything else as my sun screen. If I do it's a 4-8 SPF.

Day 17

Playing hard at the park with the girls! This has to be one of the BEST slides I have ever seen! I like the drop! Even my 2 year old loved it!
 
Sorry BUT I hate when I have to see some guys butt because he refuses to pull up his pants! I do NOT need to see your butt!!

Day 2 of Challenge

Day 2 of planking and yes I am doing better BUT still kind of sad!! haha. BUT I will continue to get better each day as I do them! :)

OH MY!! I have NEVER been into fruit in my salad BUT WOW!! I LOVED this salad. Apples, pecans, feta, lettuce and some balsamic dressing. The key is light on the feta and light on the dressing!! I will have to keep this salad in rotation though!

Shakeology!! What can I say, BEST part of the day!

Tuesday, October 16, 2012

Day 16

I don't know why but I really like broccoli, so I always try to keep some frozen on hand.
My nail polish collection, even though I am missing some due to my daughters taking off with it!

Day 15

I LOVE dark chocolate! Anytime that I can have it, trust me, I DO!
My fall/winter toe color!

Day 14

I love me some garlic! It is my FAVORITE thing to cook with! If I can use it, I use it! :)
PM has some of my fav tools EVER!

Day 13

My day 13! :)

30 Day Challenges

Part of this challenge is to do a plank-a-day. Let me tell you, this one is kind of hard! haha, I will keep doing it every day but I get the feeling I will stick around this time!! :)
s
Other part of this challange, a salad a day! This was just a basic salad. Chicken, lettuce and dressing! :) It was yummy though!

Last part of the challenge is 30 days of shakeology to get me back into it! YUM!! It was the BEST night time snack while everyone else was eating cookies!!!

Saturday, October 13, 2012

Day 12

My "gym" is my home! I have insanity, turbo fire, and brazil butt lift. Let's just say holy crap!!! These 3 kick my butt!! Amazing feeling after these.

Latest purchase!! Yes, I like to shop! Most of my stuff isn't just beauty, it's what makes me, ME! New travel carry on bag, a passport holder, hair most oil from got2be, candle, my nerd logic problems!! :-)

Day 11 Photo Challenge

The best way I like to relax is 1. Read a book! Love having the kindle app! And 2. Listen to music. Putting my headphones on and getting lost in a good book is always a good way to shut out the world!!!

My eye... Nothing special but hey... Haha

Influenster

Ok, so I found this site influenster.com and what it is, is where you can get badges pertaining to your lifestyle. A way to "influence" others. To give your opinion and review products/places. I LOVE it!!! In a way it's like I'm testing myself to see what I really do use or not. It's a fun little game to me to get my badges (of course ones that actually pertain to ME!) and see how much in each I use different products and what I really think of them! It's a fun community of people all helping each other! :-). I think I'm on there daily checking out different things. They have a score system and its fun to see how your score changes from day to day! I highly recommend checking it out!!!

Day 10

For fruit I LOVE grapes :-)! For my beauty inspiration I like to go look around on Pinterest and then tweak it to what would look better on me.

Day 9

I do not have a calorie counter yet :-( but I am in the market for one and this happens to be one I'm looking at. I'm also looking at the bodybug, Nike fuel and a couple others.

For my hair care right now I'm using sulfate free shampoo and conditioner and I use a shine spray a frizz lotion and of course I use a heat spray because I flat iron my hair and blow dry it! :-) soon to be switching to wen though!!

Sponsoring A Child

Today, while watching some Grey's Anatomy I decided that I wanted to sponsor a child. To be honest, this is something I have been wanting to do since highschool and why I have never done it, couldn't tell ya! Well while online tonight doing my "homework" I found a blog where a woman not only sponsors several differnent children she has her own kids sponsor kids as well. I like this idea for many reasons! I like the idea of kids getting to know kids from around the world and learning that every place is different and NOT every person grows up the same way with the same chances. Yes both of my kids are young but I want to go ahead and start now with my 5 year old. I think that for Christmas this is something that we are going to do. I want my kids to grow up knowing that NOT everyone gets the same chances and that people grow up having very different struggles. I want both of my girls to understand that they are VERY lucky to have the things that they have. When I get my packet with the info on my "kid" I will sit down with them and talk to them about it and see what they have to say and go from there. :)

Mini Haul

Tonight I just HAD to get out of the house and since I am going to my going away dinner... I had to get a new shirt!! Since I got a new shirt I needed new lipstick/gloss and some new bronzer because my daughter thought it would be fun to take my other one and smash it!!
 
My mom and I have picked out the girls halloween costumes this year (doing our own thing!) so I needed to get the finishing touches and here they are! Wings and tutus, glow in the dark nail polish and some fun pink hair stuff! :) I of course got my Naoki (our pit) a hat to wear!
 
Doesn't she just look too cute!! Yeah she doesn't like it too much but she will wear it long enough to make me happy! :) I LOVE HER!!!
 
 

Day 4 of Photo Challenge

For day 4, here are my workout clothes! I was getting ready to actually workout so I just took a pic of them BEFORE they went on. :) Always in some pants/shorts that are just comfy and a sports bra (luckily I work out at home!!)
 
My brushes!!! I am VERY VERY picky about brushes and these I like but NOT my fav but I do still use them BUT I am waiting on a new set!! :) (will post once I get them in!)

Day 3 of Photo Challenge

My fav work out that I really enjoy to do is TurboFire's Fire 45 Class!! I can't even begin to explain just how pumped I get with this class. I always get excited when this is on the schedule! :)
 
For my makeup collection... this honestly is just the basics of it. I am re-doing it right now because I got rid of A LOT of stuff because I just didn't like it anymore and I didn't want it sitting around and taking up room when I can buy new stuff and enjoy it sooooo much more!! :)

First Wittlebee Box

I have two daughters but I wasn't able to make it where I could get both boxes with the same e-mail I ordered and registered seperatly and at different times. I got the first box for my 5 year old daugher and I LOVED it. All the clothes are super cute! The monthly price is $39.99 but I ended up getting a discount code for the first box, which ended up being 55% off. She is so happy about what she got and to even get the box made her happy. wittlebee.com is the link!! :) They go from newborn to 6 years old. So if you have any kids in this age frame check it out! :) You can hold a box if you want to skip a month or two at a time. NO penalties, no contract. YES, I recommend this box! :)

beats

So, I saw these out in town here in Oki and I just HAD to have them. It took me about a month or two to actually get them though! :) I do have to say this, I LOVE them! They are absolutly perfect. I put them on and I can completly tune out everything around me. My husband actually has to throw things are my head to make me stop and look at him because I really can NOT hear anything going around me. It's perfect when I am working or trying to get some things done because I have always been the type of person to listen to music while working, doing HW or anything like that. They go on, I turn them up to full blast and I am able to just zone out on what I am doing! :) If you have never tried them I highly think you should. YES they are pricey but sooooo worth the money!! If I could I would totally have different pairs so I could have different colors but I think that my husband would be a tad mad!! HAHA!

Day 2 of Photo Challenge

Breakfast was a on the run deal!! SO good though! For my daily must haves, NO matter if I wear makeup or not I NEED these!!! :)

First PetsLoveToys.com Box

OK!! So, today was a good day!! I ended up getting 4 of my subscription boxes! One of which was petslovetoys.com   ! I LOVED IT! I honestly, believe that I will keep this going and not wait until after the holidays to start it back up. Let me start by telling you about doggie number 1. (we have 3 but 2 of them live in Fla with my parents right now until November when we get back.) Naoki is a pitbull and she is PICKY! She only likes ropes for toys (tennis balls only because she likes to rip them up) and she has NEVER liked bones or sticks or anything like that. Well today... she got a new toy that she loves and those sticks in there OH YEAH, she LOVED them!!! To see how happy my baby was made me realize how PERFECT of an idea it was. To top it off, to see that they had written "Thank you for your service" (husband is military) was NICE. I do NOT ever except anyone to go out of their way because he is military but to have people say "Thank You" makes you take a step back and think. Of course being new to the whole subscription boxes thing I was/am a little nervous about all the boxes that I am trying out but I know for a fact that I am happy about this one!! I recommend this box and this company to anyone and everyone! :)

Day 1 Photo Challenge


I totally forgot to post this here!! So here is my Day 1 of my double photo challenge :)! Just a quick post to show the pics! :)

September Foodie PenPal

This was my first month participating in foodie penpal and let me tell you, it was A LOT of fun. I got all this niffty fun stuff!! :) She sent me a magnet which I think is cool, something to decorate my fridge with. A menu to her fav restraunt where she is from. That was cool because everything state/town has something you are not going to find everywhere else. She worked in a bakery and she sent me a vegan cookie from there. I havn't eaten it yet because every time I go to eat it both of my kids are fighting me for it, haha. I got some wheat flour from her state which is awesome and with that she sent a recipe to for a ginger cookie. SO ready to make those. I think me and the girls will greatly enjoy it. Last but NOT least she sent me some jam. Not just any jam but its a bunch of different berries WITH jalopenos!! YUMMM! It tastes soooo good! I am excited to eat it with some creamcheese and crackers! :)
 
To explain a little bit this program is done monthly. Who you send to doesn't send to you. You DO NOT have to spend TONS of money. You want to have it mailed out by the 15th of every month that way it gets to them in time. You email your person within 72 hours to touch base with them and get their address and to see if they have any dietary specialties. You do NOT want to send someone that does NOT eat meat something with anything meat related. You want to make you that your person enjoys what you are sending them! I am excited for next month and looking forward to doing this every month. My first month I feel I could have been a better sender but it was my first month and I am learning how to make this fun for me and my person!Stay posted for next month!! :)

Good-bye

Today was the girls last day at RMEC. It was very emotional! Makes me realize how huge of a part they play in my life and my daughters lives. All of her teachers will be greatly missed. I have planned to make sure that we keep in touch with them because I want to be able to have my girls remember them and have them in their lives even though we will be so far away from one another. It's a VERY sad moment when you realize how soon EVERYTHING that you have known for the last 3 and half years is about to change DRASTICALLY! Not only does it stress me out because I am afraid that things will not go somewhat to plan and we will get "stuck." Getting stuck will be one of the WORST things that could happen to us. From this moment it is all about getting ready for the move. No work, just spending the days at home with the girls and cleaning and packing and getting things together back in the states that way when we do get back we have something we are going back to. Here's to the last bit of the journey in Oki! (picture to come soon when I figure out how to get this pic from where it is located right now! haha)

It Comes to an End

WOW, today was my final day at work. It really hasn't 100% hit me yet. I think come Monday when the girls are at home with me as well it will really hit me that we are getting ready to leave. I can not believe that its been almost two years since I started that job. It's crazy how fast time really does go by. I remember when we made the decision that we were going to go back to the states and start a new chapter in our lives, it feels like it was such a long time ago. Now, we are down to the last 46ish days. I am no longer working, come Friday the girls will no longer be going to school. It will be mainly just getting the house ready for us to leave. My main focus right now is enjoying the rest of this week like it is a mini vaca and then starting next week I need to start going through all of our things and deciding what we are going to keep and what we want to get rid of. This is going to be a LONG LONG process!!! Let's see how sane I can stay this last little bit of our stay here! :)

Love MY Bully

So I have been seeing different people that are doing AMAZING things to help make people realize that bully breeds really are amazing pets! I for one do have a pitbull and she has to be one of the sweetest babies I have ever met. We did adobt her and she has become such an important part of our family! Being the person that I am, I am stepping up and doing something myself! COMING SOON I will have my site and page up (more to come on this soon!) I truly feel that you have to be educated and smart when getting bully breeds. All dogs are aggressive, NOT just pits and dobermans and rotties! On top of having my bully I do have my hybrids and they are my babies as well and I feel many people do NOT get those types of dogs either. People need to be educated and do their homework BEFORE they get certain types of dogs. When we walk into my house, yes my dog goes crazy but its because she is trying so hard to play with you and love you and get your attention. Never has she ever acted in anyway that has made me question getting her. We have 2 beautiful little girls and with both of them she is friendly and playful. She cuddles with them more then she does with us sometimes. Keep your eyes out because coming soon you will be able to purchase items to help the fight and be the voices for the voiceless!!! :)

Coming to an End

I can not even begin to say how sad I am starting to get! I have two (2) more days of work left and then it's on to getting this house and us ready to move back to good 'ol Florida. It blows my mind how fast this is all coming to an end. I can remember when everything was just something that we were "talking" about and it seemed like it was forever and a day away and now, haha, it's literally right around the corner, 48 more days I think. I have A LOT going on as well! I am of course going buck wild with subscription boxes :) and of course working beachbody and my other things that I have planned. Maybe in this coming month that I am getting the house and everything else ready I will be able to get myself in a place that I need to be by the time we actually step off the plane! I have 3 major things in the works right now. It is time consuming and it will be a bit before I "launch" them but thats ok because for me I LOVE what I'm doing! October is going to be a really good month for me I feel. I will be able to focus on the things that I keep my mind busy at my day job. I will get to spend more time with the girls and I am excited about that. I also will be doing home school type stuff with them since they will not be going to Rainbow for that last month. I found education.com and I LOVE IT! It has A LOT of good work sheets and workbooks and activites to do with them. For the month of October I will be redoing the fitness photo challenge but on top of that  I will be doing a beauty photo challenge so be ready for that. I am SO excited about starting our date nights in the states. I have A LOT of fun things planned. Its harder to do things here mainly because I can not find some of the things that I need and sometimes I do NOT want to order everything off of amazon. I have been VERY absent for the month of September but I will be around A LOT more! I am looking forward to Wednesday and being able to have the house to myself and it not be because I am sick and having to take the day off to get myself better. :) OH the bitter sweetness of goodbyes!

SWEATPINK

Woke up this morning to find out that I am NOW a brand new Sweat Pink Ambassador!!! How exciting is that?!?!?! Ok, for some NOT but for me VERY! I just placed my order to get my Sweat Pink tank :). Excited to get that but I do have to wait until November to get it because I do not want to keep having boxes sent here when we only have about 8 weeks left on island. Anyways, I just HAD to share this today!! :)

64 More Days!

We are in our last 64 days on this island. I can NOT believe that we are this close to leaving and starting this new part to our lives. I have realized in these  last few  months what my passion is and it has ALOT to do with wanting to help others! I am VERY passionate about 1. my health and fitness. It really has become a BIG part of my life. 2. beauty, I have always been into hair and wanting to get my cosmotology license and I have now realized that hair/makeup is a BIG part of what I want in my life. 3. fashon, I have really started paying more attention to fashion. I know that I really want to keep pushing forward with my line and here in the next year I want to be able to see my ideas a reality! Once we are back in the states I have A LOT of ideas/plans that I will be moving forward in. I want to build something for my family and have something that I LOVE doing! I have NEVER been the type of person who has wanted to be working for someone else. I have always thought of myself in a way that there was something more for me then the rat race. I know that I have a lot to offer and give, I just need to keep dreaming big and reaching for the stars. If I hear "but aren't you worried", or "I don't know about that" to me it is a way of saying that you don't think I can do it and I am always up for a good challenge! :) A LOT to come in the next few weeks!!

It's Been A While

I have not posted in a while :(. Makes me sad to see myself start to slack in things that mean something to me. I have been kind of going crazy in the head lately mainly because I have been working on my FB page for fitness and now I'm trying to add a little beauty to it. I have started subscribing to different monthly subscriptions!! :) Not only for myself but for the kids too and I am trying to find one that I can add for the hubs! There are two different companies that I want to be an affiliate to. They are things for kids and I am excited to sign up for those starting next pay day!! :) Things are good, I will have to start posting daily again!! Tonight I just wanted to do a catch!! I want to make sure I keep track of our last 66 days in Okinawa! :(

OH MY

Life has been a tad on the crazy side! I know I havn't been on top of my game when it comes to posting! :( I have been really working on my different goals/dreams, taking all those baby steps that I need to take to make them a reality! I can NOT even begin to explain how blessed I feel for all the thigns that are taking place. We are in such a good place that it kind of makes me nervous but happy at the same time! I signed up for a foodie penpal the other day. I can't wait to actually participate next month :). It will be nice to do monthly! I have been working on my FB page for HealthyFit&Fab NO EXCUSES!! It's a work in progress as well as is my journey. I started it when I was working hard with beachbody but when I took that HUGE step back I stopped posting on the page. Now that I am back and working hard on ME, I want to use the page to be able to post my journey as well. Mainly because with FB I can post all day long :). HAHA Yes I am a social network junkie, but when you're life and the things you want to do involve you using all of the things you use then you have to use them more! Sounds weird yes I know but it made sense while I was typing it out! :) AHHH... excited to be able to post as things start to become real!!! :)

Day 4

Oh day 4 was awesome!!! I've noticed that now after each workout I feel relaxed. I use to be just tired, now I'm relaxed and it feels like I've destressed myself. Before I use to always get through the first week then I would start to slack so each week the goal is to 1. Get through that week just as excited as the week before and 2. To make it to the next week. This time around though I'm alot more focused and determined to get through Turbo Fire. Can't wait to see the change after the first month, then the second and so on. :-) Tomorrow is my fav work out... Looking forward to it!

Day 3

Today was a rest day! I've decided that this week will just be Turbo Fire and next week I will add some Brazil Butt Lift. After reading Chalene's blog though I want to add some strength training too. Now I just need to learn more about eating right. I want to do this the right way and change my life, now just the next 90 days.

Day 2

Another day down!! Tonight my two year old thought she would join me in my workout. After each HIIT she would give me high fives!! What can I say it felt amazing to get my workout in! The HIITs are always my favorite workouts, mainly because they are short but you get such a great workout! Ready For day 3!

Making a better ME

I've started reading a selection of books to help make a better version of myself. Now I just want to get my mind 100% in the game of where it needs to be. :-) I will post after I read each book and do workbooks if need be.

REAL Day 1

So I lied!! :-( I did not start my workout schedule when I said I was going to. I won't lie, I was just lazy! Somehow though I lit a fire under my butt and this is my official Day 1. Goal is to post every day and pics for accountability! I forgot how much I really love turbo fire! It felt amazing while doing the workout and I felt even better after! Looking forward to another good workout for Day 2!

Fun Anytime Date Idea

During my daily visit on thedatingdivas.com I came across these printables. They are perfect for a quick idea to do something cute and fun for your hunni! I'm thinking for breakfast tomorrow (Sunday my time) I will set this up since he will be waking up to it!

2013

I feel that 2013 is going to be THE year! As of yet, 2012 has proved that it is the starting point for majority of my life. It's pretty much the beginning to everything at this point! I'm ready to kick 2012s butt and make 2013 MY year!! :-) life is too short! Live your life for yourself. Who cares about everyone else... Your happiness should be your concern NOT others!!! :-) That saying of keeping people in your life that have the same goals and thoughts is true! Who you spend your time with effects how you act and what you do. You need to keep like minded people! So right now I'm cleaning out my "closet" per say and all that is staying is what's POSITIVE!!! If all it does is bring you down you don't need it!

Ready For The Party

I am so ready for Kenzie butt's 5th birthday. I am excited to do cupcake fondue! :) I saw it on pinterest (my addiction) and thought it was PERFECT! With the fact that we are moving this year and David wasn't suppose to be here I wanted to keep it very simple. She will be surprised when we get to do this! She will more then likely want to do this everyday!! Can't wait to post pics from her day! :)
