Back to work...quick update

1 day off was most def needed to recover from this cold/death. I'm not sure if I can classify it a cold, when I I felt like dying. I feel a little bit better today. I'm doped up on dayquil and tea. I'm about to indulge in my tasty Isagenix shake this morning. Hopefully, I will be back to full blogging potential by tomorrow... or I might surprise you all later. Might need to wait until this dayquil really starts to kick in. 

Have an awesome wednesday... I'm excited for super bowl.

Sick & out of comission

Something has seriously taken over my body and dragged me through the dirt. I will be laying on couch indulging in tea, cough drops and dayquil. I will try and be back tomorrow. Have a happy Tuesday!

Isagenix Week #1

Week #1 on Isagenix went a little something like this:

I've done this system before and I think the other times I wasn't as serious as I am now. I'm drinking water and peeing 9 times a day, maybe even more. I've decided to have a shake in the morning and for lunch so I can have my lean meal at home for dinner. Sometimes this has happened and other days not. It was my Birthday this last weekend (1/29) I did have ice cream cake and mashed potatoes. Oh well, shoot me. Also, I've been sick since sunday morning, so I've been drinking tea and cough drops and soups and no shakes for two days. I guess that's just what happens when you get sick. 

I'm not falling off the bandwagon I'm still motivated and once I get this gunk out of my chest I will be back to it full time and at it. This week I'm going to be going back to the gym, hopefully 6 days a week. I go on my lunch so I don't have the temptation of going home and not removing myself from the house. 

Like I said the shakes are amazing and the cleanse days are tough. Luckily only once a week. I choose to do them on a sunday, so I'm not killing myself at work and can relax or do something else to preoccupy my time with.

Weigh in this morning:  -7.3 pounds


Weight left too lose: 52.7

1st goal: January 30th - 10lbs Not Reached I'm down 7.3 lbs Not loosing hope. Hope to kick this cold.
2nd goal February 15th - 15lbs (Reward to myself: hair cut and new jeans)
3rd goal February 28th - 20lbs
4th goal March 15th - 30lbs

Daily Goals:
Gym - once a day 45 minutes minimum (Starting again this week)
Water - 8-9 glasses a day. Even if I have to force it. (It's been half and half the last 2 days with chest congestion)
No to: Coffee, soda (includes diet coke), juice. Just water for a week. Phew. I need a miracle. (I cup of coffee this weekend, eeks)

Once I get over this cold I will be going at it again and hardcore. I start the gym at the end of this week due to waiting to get this crap out of my chest.

Camera Died.. Mom Fail


The camera died at the hair cut place. Of course. Mom Fail! Anyway, I took her photo of the hair cut after her nap that same day. Kinda messy, but you get the idea. It's cute and the finished product. 

Mack's FIrst Hair Cut

I had some serious anxiety when we walked into the hair cut place for Mack to get her first hair cut. Besides the fact that this was a Chuckie Cheese for hair cuts with TV monitors, movies, cartoons, cool bright colors and lot's to take in. I thought once Mack got into that chair there was no way in hell that lady would have a chance in getting the comb in.

SnipIts Hair Cut's for Kids

As soon as Mack sat down she was offered a lolly pop. The lady started up the cartoon on the monitor and Mack looked pretty content. She started to put the comb through and Mack just sat there. There were a couple of times, were a tangle was snagged and Mack wasn't too hip about it but overall the hair cut went really smoothly. 

She loved the end when she was blow dried. Then she was sprayed up with some sparkles and a clippy. Overall it was an awesome experience for Mackenna and all for $15 bucks. Super sweet. 

I went for the bob cut for her first one. So cute. 

Waiting her turn and watching Planet 51


Lolli Pop to start the process

Me showing the lady let's go for a bob

My Birthday Eve

Well, bloggers we have made it another week. Is it just me or does time just pass on right by. Before you know it... it's your birthday again. Yes, my birthday is tomorrow. Where did the last 24 years go. Oh shoot, I just told you all my freaking age. Dang it.

Time passes us by so fast, and I feel like I take everyday for granted. We are always waiting for the next day or next week, next month, heck even next year. I'm guilty of this as well. We have something coming up, party, birthday, vacation. We are constantly waiting for something and not enjoying day by day. I don't want my life to pass me by. 

Anyway, Happy Friday and have a good weekend.
