I work out.

Everyone is talking about dieting and working out.
It’s almost making my head spin.
Yeah.. Miss I have to run 13.5 miles straight in 67 days..
I need to get my butt motivated.
Pinterest is helping.
( HERE ARE MY FIT PINS )
So are all of you!! Thanks!

I’ve always said by the time I’m 20 I want to be the skinniest I’ve ever been..
Well, 2 days short of being 20.. I’ve reached my goal.
However, now I want to be the fittest.
Why are we so focused on getting skinny?
I love my body.. but I want to be strong and feel great!
Girls that are in shape are far more attractive than girls that are just skinny.

I need to make a lot of changes in my lifestyle.
I eat great.. but I need to do better than this.

What keeps all of you motivated?

    Ahhh you will do great in that half marathon! I am currently training for one this summer however a week of being sick has put a HUGE crimp in my routine. I never thought I would WANT to go running, but heck...look what this training has done to me. Haha. And what is funny is that I usually go on pinterest when I don't feel like going to the gym and then BAM I get up and go. Inspiration at its finest :)

    OMG - I always say the same thing about how I want to be the skinniest I've ever been by the time I'm 20 LOL I always say that I want to be the hottest and skinniest I've ever been by the time I turn 20. Which is a definite goal of mine. And Pinterest is such a great site for staying motivated.

    I always feel a lot better if I'm staying physically fit! I have more energy and I just feel healthier. That's my motivation!

    Awesome! I've decided to indulge in things with natural sugars instead the usual dessert or candy. Like strawberries! You look great. -Melissa

    You look great! I work at a Pilates studio, and I completely agree that being fit is better than being thin. Some of the most attractive women are curvy, but strong! :) And, depending on one's genes, slenderness will come with fitness.

    Watching the Bachelor and seeing most of the girls with their perfectly shaped/toned legs has been motivating me, haha! Looking forward to little vacations where I'll be sporting a bikini helps motivate me as well!
    I think when you're more focused on being fit than skinny, you're more willing to work hard. Make sense?

You can’t blog with us!

I’m not digging all of these big shot bloggers trying to make these rules for blogging. I have read posts about how not everyone should have a blog. If you’re not a big shot blogger, like myself.. this post is for you. If you are a big shot blogger, this post is also for you.. but, none of you will read this. These are just some of the rules that I don’t follow.. Your blog will be judged by it’s cover. Have a perfect layout. If spending $100 to have some make a layout for my blog means you’ll read my blog and you’ll follow me.. then I don’t give a damn if you’re not following me. Respond to all comments left on your blog. It is important to respond to comments.. however, I do understand why people can’t always respond. Personally.. if you ask me something I most likely will respond. A lot of the time I get comments that pretty much all I can say is “Thank you!” to.. I mean.. I’ll absolutely always respond if you e-mail me.. or even if you comment on instagram.. I respond almost inst...

Now or never... (QUICK UPDATE)

I wasn't lying when I said that I wanted to get back into blogging. However, life took multiple turns and I've been too busy to sit down at my computer and produce a decent blog post. It can't hurt to fill in anyone that still reads my blogs, but might not closely follow me on social media. After TWO years of being single and not being into the idea of dating anyone, I'm actually in a relationship. I know at the beginning of a relationship it's expected to be in the state that you feel like you've never been happier. The difference is, I've known my boyfriend for 11 years. When we were young, we'd always act like a couple. We never had a "title" back then no matter how many times we reconnected. Seven months ago, he finally moved back home. I was so excited to have him back in my life. Then I realized that I wasn't okay with just being his friend. After about 5 months of blowing him off and him giving up trying to hang out, I finally ex...

Friday’s Letters!

Dear Pictures Of Myself, Why do you always look so bad? And, no.. I am not saying I’m ugly or any of that.. so please, don’t jump down my throat about that. But you know how some girls look 100 times better in their photos than in real life? Well, that’s not me.. and people have had no issue telling me that. Which, I guess is better.. unless you only see photos of me.. ehh, whatever. Dear Blog, I will be spending some time on you today. Planning some posts, commenting on some of my favorite blogs.. all of that stuff good bloggers do. Dear Friday, I’m so glad to be seeing you! Next Friday I will be enjoying Chicago for the very first time at the Keane concert with the love of my life! I need to make you a very productive day.. since Thursday was anything but productive. Dear Lucas Blaze, Thank you so much for planning on booking our room today after you get out of work around 7am… You’re the best. Last weekend was so amazing. I love all of our fun little dates. Dear Dark Hair, ...
