Okie dokie! So we kind of had a little hiatus there where I think we both fell off the wagon there for a moment. Not fall off the wagon like go crazy, but as in we didn't blog! So I'm back! So my plan is to catch up where I am as of now...since its the middle of the week...I'm not going to post a challenge for the half week, but I will come back and post on Sunday for a new one for the following week!
Update for the "find a detox and make up a workout" challenge!
I found a cool little detox that wasn't too scary! However, I didn't try it! It's more of a water cleanse! You take 60 ounces of distilled water, 2 tbsp of lemon juice and 1 tbsp of sugar free cranberry juice and 1 tea bag (ginger root or some time of good detox type tea...we used a lemon ginseng with probiotics).THe plan is that you are supposed to drink this 60 ounce cleanse every day for 7 days and it is supposed to cleanse up to 5 pounds of just simple "CRAP" out of your body. I have been doing it for two days and it definitely makes you pee...but it also kind of makes you feel full so you aren't eating as much either! So thats good! I'll update with more later :)
For the make up a workout part, I ended up doing kind of a mix of things. Where it has been really pretty and we have such a huge backyard, I ended up doing a workout of sorts with the doggies! Where I would run with them and then stop and squat to get the ball and things of that sort. It was actually a lot more physical than i thought running around with the dogs. However, I wore my heart rate monitor and in like 30 minutes I had burned like 250 calories just playing with them! I was like WOAH!
Update on life so far:
So March 7, 2013 was my last day at Aerotek! YAY! I had 8 glorious days off before I started my new job at Travelers! I was able to really relax, got a massage and really just slept in, took naps and did what I wanted to do! It was amazing! Probably one of the best therapies in the entire world...just being lazy! Also, I was able to really focus on the things of my body that I didn't like and it be OK to get upset because I wasn't at work....but on the flip side...I was also able to focus on the things of my body that I really liked! It was kind of a reflective week! I was mentally preparing myself for starting my first week at Travelers. Which leads me to now. Today is Wednesday, midway through the week at Travelers and I can already tell a HUGE difference in my attitude in general! Its like I actually want to get up, want to go to work and just feel so much more energized! Plus at work at the moment, we are literally studying and learning to be licensed in property and casualty insurance, so its like I'm back in school which is a comfort thing for me! I am still getting used to the 10-7 gig, but its ok! I can so do it! Its nice that at 7:00pm...I"M GOING HOME! I love it!
So that is what is going on so far with an update! I feel good! I still only have 1 pair of dress pants that fit at the moment which DOES NOT make me happy. However, I have done REALLY well so far this week (haven't gone to the gym but I did the pilates challenge MOnday and yesterday...today not so much...I have a headache that is making me sick to my stomach!) Nonetheless, I'm here and ready to go!
Bri, hope to see your blog soon! I hope you have a great week! :)
Love always,
Brittany
