Valentine's Day Recap & T25 Update!

Hi all my lovies.. it's been a little while since I last posted on here, but things have been oober crazy and stressful. But I'M BACK :)

So yes, February 14th - is of course the one day a year a girl should get showered with big teddy bears, boxes of chocolates, and some pretty flowers! For me, it's not just a hallmark holiday, but it's the day my wonderful fiancé and I started dating! (Yep... Totally cliche) Three years for us... and we're 85 days out from the wedding! I can't believe it's been three years already... time sure does fly when you're having fun!! Craig and I decided to celebrate our Valentine's Day at the Outback Steakhouse Thursday night, instead of having to deal with the long waits and tons of people out and about. It's my favorite place to get a yummy steak & it was nice to have an evening out and about with him since it's been a while! We also exchanged gifts we got each other! He surprised me with a beautiful pandora bracelet that included a 13.1 charm for completing the half marathon last year, a cute decorative charm, and a limited edition Valentine's Day 2014 charm that opens up as a locket to hold our pictures in it! :) I have been asking for one for the longest time, and I am so excited to have it finally!! He also bought me a digital picture frame and a giant hand made Valentine's Day card that surprised me saying we are going to have a beautiful Dove Release for our wedding ceremony!!! I am so excited because we called the lady this morning at When Doves Fly, she was really excited and when she sent the contract over to us she mentioned that the couple that was chosen for the 50% off any package for attending the Wedding Expo last month didn't accept the offer so she offered it to us, how sweet right!!! I feel so relieved that everything is coming into place.



Also, today... I finished the double workout day for T25! Other than splurging a little yesterday for the bake sale we had at work to help raise money to donate to the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh Foundation - I would say it's been a good week for me. Cookies, brownies, cupcakes, and a bunch of yummy treats... it got the best of me! But I live a normal life, and I eat some things I don't have on a daily basis so it's ok to have a "sugary" snack every once in a while. And today I woke up and got right back on track with my Shakeology!!! 

I actually looked forward to T25 this week and I am so excited to have completed week 2 of the Alpha Phase... only 3 more weeks left then onto the Beta Phase!!! :) Hoping for some awesome results. I want to be able to lose these last stubborn six pounds before I have to go get my first dress fitting in the middle of March! GOALS GOALS GOALS.

But ok guys & gals... it's about time to call it a night! Here's until next time... have a great evening everyone!!

Off Day & Super Bowl Sunday... Let's Go Steelers, haha!!!

It's Sunday already! These weekends just go by way too fast... thinking about having to go back to work on Monday is so depressing :( ugh! But definitely got caught up on a good bit of sleep and getting the apartment cleaned up and laundry done!! Productive weekends are better than just hanging out like a couch potato, for sure!!

But ok it is Sunday and this week it is my off day from the gym and running and I'm about to lose my mind! What do you all do for your off days? I feel very unproductive when I don't work out but think there has to be something to keep active on my off days. I also have a Fitbit Force and my daily goal for steps is 10,000 and with my off day I find it very hard for me to get there! :( any suggestions are greatly appreciated! 


Super Bowl Sunday .... has kind of a sentimental meaning to it for me!! The Steelers are not playing in it so it's kind of a whatever game for me, but 3 years ago on Super Bowl Sunday .. I met my future hubby! I can't believe it's already been that long! Feels like a lifetime ago.. crazy how somethings work out!! So, who's your pick in the Super Bowl? Im going to go with the Broncos... they play like Champions and I think Peyton deserves it, but I'm not much of a sports enthusiast so I can't really give my "expert" opinion, haha! GO STEELERS!!! So what kind of healthy snacks are you having for your Super Bowl get together? We're having cheese and crackers, and some healthy chicken nuggets I found on the Fitness Barbie's blog! :) check her out she's pretty awesome! Her fitness and health story is so inspiring!


But hope you all have a great night with your friends and family if you have parties to attend, have fun and don't pig out too much!!!
