Fitness Friday: What I've been doing w/o gym membership

So I think I posted about this last year... Maybe not on this blog... But I figured I'd just share some things I've been doing and how I do them.

So my friend told me about this app called Couch to 5k and it tells you how to run for a half hour and gradually it gets harder to do and it's just an easy way if you want to start running, that helps. Lately I've been doing little 30 minute workouts before, and I've done workouts after running too... But I prefer before cause I feel like I can do a more full workout them. 

And I just do easy excersises for a small space. I use my sisters bedroom cause she lives with her husband now. But it's small. So I do crunches, I do the running app in there too because there's been a heatwave and I didn't really want to go outside. Stacey has some weights that she left here and I used them too. I just do things that are easy to do in a tiny place. It's nothing too special  if you look up "small space workouts" on Pinterest, you can find some. It's good. 

I also made a little fitness journal and I write down my food and my little workout and how I'm feeling that day and my step count and the water I drank that day... And that's fun to do. I feel like I'm doing a better job with stuff now that I write it down and it feels like a congratulations for myself. 

I feel like this isn't my best blog... Lol. But I like these things and I'll try to explain them better soon. 

Bye!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...
