DC Update

So...now that I'm finally feeling a little bit alive again after some much needed rest...I thought I'd post my update on how DC was.

I had such a great time. I always loving heading home & spending time with family and friends. I'd post everything we did, but this trip was mostly just relaxing and hanging out. There were no real plans. My mom had a bike ride on Saturday, so we picked her up in the late afternoon out in Maryland. OH!! On Saturday morning, when we were at my sisters soccer game, waiting for her to play...we watched OBAMA'S daughters game. And yes...HE WAS THERE!!

Now...I'm not Obama's biggest fan. I just don't agree with him on a lot of things...but this was still pretty freaking cool!! I mean...how often do you see Obama in jeans and a jacket, just enjoying time with the family. CRAZY!! He even waved to us as he left the game.

On Saturday night, I went out with some friends I haven't seen in FOREVER. That was really nice & fun. Then on Sunday, after brunch with the family, it was time to head back to Raleigh.

Overall, a very good weekend and I can't wait to visit again :-) Unfortunately it won't be until at least January. Oh well...

Eating was pretty in check while up there. I ate some stuff I don't usually eat...but kept portions in control & stopped eating once I felt full. Plus, with all the walking we always do up there, I definitely got a good amount of exercise!

Hope everyone had a good weekend & is off to an awesome week!!

Day Off!!

First day off in FOREVER. When I say day off, I mean off from work AND school.

And I am spending this day catching up on REST!! I'm so exhausted all the time that I just need a day to relax. I'm going to do pilates at some point today, but at my own leisure. I have nowhere to be & nothing I really have to do.

I'm probably going to pop in some scary movies (I love themmmmmm) and just lay back and rest. Hopefully, when I feel less exhausted this week because of today, it'll give me the energy to actually focus on my weight loss. I feel like I got off track this week just because I've had so much going on. I forgot how stressful school can get so quickly.

I feel like I'm just rambling in this post. Haha--and I'm totally okay with that. I don't have to think today, for once.

I hope everyone else is having a wonderful labor day!! (or labor-less day, I suppose)

Better Fit

You know what feels great...when your clothes start fitting better again. That's what I noticed yesterday--how much easier my clothes slide on now. And they're back to being a comfortable fit. Not everything I own, but some of the stuff. Even my bracelet slid on easier than normal. Incredible feeling.

So, it's my day off--which means rest, rest, rest. I never get enough rest when I'm working because we just get so slammed at times, but when I can spend most of my day in bed catching up on some much needed sleep, I take advantage.

Oh yeah!! Before I forget...I noticed that I hit 30 followers (now 31)!! I just want to thank all of you for your support :-) It makes me so happy when I sign on & see that somebody left me a comment!! Plus, I love hearing from new people too!! So keep it up--the support from everyone really makes a huge difference!!

Hope everyone has a great day!!

Day Off

I just had the most relaxing day off ever!! Since I've been so exhausted lately, I decided to just spend the day resting in bed. It was GREAT!! Just what I needed to rejuvenate myself.

I spent most of the day watching Nip/Tuck...have ya'll ever seen that show? I love it!! Kelly Carlson (Kimber) is definitely a thinspiration character on the show for me. She has such a great body!! It definitely made me want to work out!!

Just thought I'd give a quick update about my day...now I'm off to gym!! Hope everyone had a wonderful day!!
