Friday Favorites! (6.19.15)

Friday, June 19, 2015

Yay for Friday!  As a teacher, every day is like the weekend to me, but I’m actually happy today is Friday because we have a fun weekend planned.  We’re going on a little weekend getaway with my BFF and her husband!

I’m linking up with Andrea for Friday Favorites today ๐Ÿ™‚

Last weekend I took my dad to see Jurassic World for Father’s Day.  The whole Jurassic Park franchise is my FAVORITE (except the 2nd movie) and this one may have been super fake but I loved every minute of it!  I was a little unsure of watching it in 3D but it wasn’t that bad.  We took this picture before the movie started and this was before I had to put on my real glasses and then the 3D glasses on top ๐Ÿ™  #badeyesightprobs
My church has a Women’s Ministry and our study for this coming year is Donald Whitney’s Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life.  I’m leading this study with the small group leaders this summer and it’s been a definite FAVORITE so far.  I’ve been really bad at memorizing Scripture so I’m really being intentional in that this summer.  I started with Psalm 19:14.  My friend, Sarah, sent this screen lock picture to me that she found on the She Reads Truth app.
This past week marked two years since we got engaged.  This is a FAVORITE memory of mine because the story is so funny.  Dustin lied to tricked me into looking for his mom’s cell phone that she had “dropped” by the pond earlier that day.  This was taken after he proposed and I was checking my awesome ring out.  I’m very private about relationship things and so he knew I didn’t want someone hiding out taking our pictures.  But he was also smart enough to know I would want to see pictures someday so he hid a game camera and so this picture was off the game camera!!  The donkey just had to see what was going on!
Another FAVORITE is that I ran in the heat earlier this week and survived!  My pace was much better than I expected.  I’ve really got to get better at getting up early like twice a week to run.  Because we all know that I don’t want to have to get up early all summer ๐Ÿ™‚

I used a fax machine this week and I’m calling this a FAVORITE moment!  These things make me nervous because I use one maybe once or twice every two years!!  I have no idea if my fax goes through or if I even did it correctly.  You know with email you can always check to see if it goes through but not a fax.   I’m so thankful that I don’t have to always use a fax machine.


My last FAVORITE moment?  We close on our house in just a few short days!!!!!  I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!
 When we first announced our plans to build a house…


…and our almost finished house!

Lacking Motivation?

Wednesday, December 10, 2014

I posted a little while ago about my weight loss journey.  I feel so much better now that my body is much healthier, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t struggle with laziness and food temptation.  I’ve found that there are a few things that help me when I’m just “not feeling it.”

1. Schedule your work outs.  I like to work out 4 times a week–Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.  I started that schedule when I started training for my first half-marathon.  The 3 weekday runs were shorter (3-4 miles) and Saturday was reserved for your long run.  After I finished my half, I kept the same running schedule.  Lately, I’ve used my week day runs for incorporating interval speed training and trying out some new circuit work outs.  I’ve learned though that it’s okay to move my days around or to miss a day, but I always have to keep myself in check to make sure I’m not getting lazy.

2. Have accountability.  Accountability is important in life and can definitely be used for exercise and eating healthy.  Personally, I cannot tell someone that I’m going to run on a certain day and then not do it.  If you struggle like I do with motivation, try finding someone to help keep you accountable.  

3. Read magazines that focus on good health.  I cannot read magazines like Shape and Women’s Health and eat snack food.  Read those magazines and they will give you inspiration for a new workout or a new type of healthy snack food or recipe!

4. Meal plan.  This has been a life saver since we’ve gotten married.  I meal plan every Saturday morning our meals for the week.  I write them down on the lines at the bottom of each day in my Erin Condren life planner.  It’s been so helpful because if I’m running late one day, then I know exactly what I’m cooking for dinner that night.  There’s no guessing, not running to the store, and no excess grocery bill because I only buy groceries for one week at a time.  It’s really worked for us!

5. Give yourself some grace.  I might schedule my work outs and plan to eat a certain meal on a certain night, but life happens.  One thing I’ve learned since being a teacher is to be FLEXIBLE!!!  As long as I don’t make a habit of it, I’m okay!

I hope these tips have helped you out if you’re like me and sometimes lack motivation.  I think they really helped me by just writing them out!

My Weight Loss Journey

Monday, November 17, 2014

I’ve always been on the “bigger” side–to put it nicely.  Judging by my school pictures, I started putting on weight in the second grade, and I just continued to gain weight each grade level.  I wasn’t really an active child.  I enjoyed riding my bike around the neighborhood and playing outside, but that didn’t help anything with the type of food I ate.  (Plus, I honestly think it also has a lot to do with my genetics–BUT, I’m not blaming it all on that!)

When I moved away to Tuscaloosa for college, I had a meal plan for my first two years since I lived on campus.  That meant that if I was hungry at 1:00 AM, I could run over to Paty Hall and go eat at the 24 hour diner, and you bet I did.  Then my senior year hit and I started student teaching.  I have never been so stressed in my life!  I really over ate during that period of my life.  (My student teaching would have to be another post…let’s just say I cried everyday and am so happy I survived!)  Add in that I wasn’t active AT ALL!!

Fast forward to graduation–I graduated in August of 2010 and something clicked the week before.  I don’t know if I was trying on clothes or looking at pictures, but I decided that I was overweight and needed to do something about it. 

Here I am packing to move out of my college apartment and move back home after graduation.  About one month pre-Weight Watchers.  July 2010


I started Weight Watchers!  It was so weird going to the meetings listening to people talk about their eating struggles, but it did help.  I learned helpful tips about snacks that were low points and learned that people struggled like I did.  One thing I loved about Weight Watchers was that it allowed extra points during the week in case you had a birthday to attend, a bridal tea, or if you just wanted to eat a piece of cake.  The most important thing though was to always track your points–even if you took one bite of something..track those points!  (I don’t do WW anymore, but it has taught me so much about how I eat and should eat.) 

This is where exercise came into play.  If you exercised, then you got to add back points based on intensity and duration.  I decided running would be the easiest option.  Since 2010, I’ve gone from only being able to run 30 seconds before I was out of breath to running a half-marathon!  Training and discipline are key–in exercise and weight loss.

I hit my 60 pound weight loss mark in May of 2012.  It may have taken almost 2 years to lose the weight, but I have learned that slow weight loss results in lasting weight loss.  I’ve added maybe 5-7 pounds back since then, but I’ve kept it off regardless.  It’s a struggle every day since I can never go back to eating the way I used to.  Even after 4 years, I still struggle with wanting to eat a million sweets or over eat.  The title of this post is accurately named because this is a journey that is never-ending for me.  I’ll be eating healthy and exercising all my life.

This was taken while I was honeymooning this summer!  July 2014


In conclusion, I’ve learned this:  “Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God?  You are not your own, for you were bought with a price.  So glorify God in your body.” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
