back home and ready to get back on track!

I’m so excited for these next three weeks! It will give me a chance to not only detox from the stress of school, but also cleanse myself of those cafeteria meals that have been bogging me down. Though I try my hardest to eat healthfully, the processed, mass meals aren’t home cooking.

here are my goals for winter break:

1.  meal planning/cooking (try new recipes and different protein portions!)
2. cut out processed as much as possible, stick to veggies and fruit for a full detox
3. home workouts including strength and cardio
4. hot yoga! (go to more classes now that I have time and master a new pose!) 

These goals are going to help realign my healthy mind, and get me back on track for next semester. I’m going to (hopefully) reap the weight loss benefits, the rejuvenated skin benefits, and more. This is really going to  set me up for the new year well. 

I am 3 lbs away from seeing the 150s on my scale.

I know it’s just a number, but obviously running and clean eating is getting me some real results. Absolutely ecstatic! Going to start implementing more weight training again to carve out more muscle!

writing some thank you notes while tanning.

then going for a run(: Someone told me that they’ve seen a definite speed improvement! So i’m just going to pat myself on the back for that progress! 

What stepping stones have you guys been making this summer so far? New recipes/food success stories? 

Share them all!

back to my early morning run(: plus i have Mat Kearny Pandora to keep me entertained! 

just checked the salad tag..

1. drenched in dressing
2. croutons, croutons, croutons
3. covered in like 1 WHOLE CUP of shredded cheese. 

omg, nononononono. that’s not what salads are for. stock up on veggie bits/citrus juice for flavor (fresh lemon is a personal favorite)/clean and lean protein for a filling meal. 

come on guys, we’re better than that
