It’s Friday!!

March 14, 2014 · In: LIFESTYLE, Uncategorized

What a great weeeeeek!!!! Yesterday, I found out I had some credit on my Gap Card and that there was a 40% sale at Gap for card members. SCORE! I could keep “saving money” but shop as well. You know that girl shopping math. I bought this demin jacket (here’s the pic on Instagram) but after coming home realized it was too big. I think I’ve got prego body dysmorphic or something. I’ll be going back today for an exchange b/c I really love it!

1. I got featured on The Grits Blog’s Little Friday Favorites for The Monthly FEMALE Normal this past week!!!

Little Friday
 
2. Oh I made something delicious this week. Recipe to come soon. This almond meal is my new secret ingredient. 
Trader Joe's almond meal
3. Ok , here are some surprise baby births for you. The women who “didn’t know they were pregnant” stories never cease to amuse me. I laugh but I guess this could potentially happen to me one day….
 
4. Smoothies are a part of every day California life! This one is blueberry, mango, banana, almond milk and greek yogurt. mango blueberry banana yogurt smoothie
 
5. The $200 H&M Giveway is still going!

 
a Rafflecopter giveaway

Have a WONDERFUL weekend!!!

      Thank you!!! OMG LOVING the new Old Navy ads! They have really great deals on maternity stuff and I am looking forward to more non-maternity stuff in a few months!!! Sales must make that gambling area of our brains light up or something, right!?

    Ah! It DOES look like you had a great week!! Ok – yeah the whole being pregnant without knowing you have a baby inside of you is all too weird for me – I cannot wrap my brain around it???? Oh well, there are enough stories I guess, to know that i can happen 🙂 And ohhhh….I miss Trader Joe’s so much! I didn’t know they had almond meal and that GF flour! I need to get those! I pass on TJ’s here in NYC because it’s like, 10x more crowded than Whole Foods (and WF’s still gets sooo crowded!) The line at TJ’s is usually like, wrapping the entire store x2. 🙁 Hope you have a lovely weekend, darling friend!! xo

      OMG, LA Trader Joes are SO crowded too! I’m still getting used to it. In San Diego, it was a leisurely trip and now I know when to go and how to zoom! I love hearing about life in different places. I need to appreciate my little crowded TJs! It’s never more than 3 deep in the lines! These two products are incredible. Have a great weekend!

    When it comes to shopping girl logic trumps all rational logic. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

      Totally. I have so many shopping rules and math, I’ve probably only repeated each one like 2 times in my life. 🙂

It’s not pretending and it’s definitely not instant results.

It’s the moment you stop negotiating with yourself and start making decisions from who you already believe you are.

Saying “I’m a runner” doesn’t magically make you one, but it does change what you choose to do next-
the habits.

That’s how change actually sticks.

it becomes automatic. 

It’s literally the laziest way to accomplish any goal

These were just things I had to go through on the journey.

It’s why I was sad but at the same time understanding that everything always works out.

that’s the person I choose to be-

Someone who knows everything is going to be ok.

One day, I decided to stop letting my circumstances determine the outcomes that I wanted.

Dare I say it but I felt old too.

Then I just decided that, even though I was in this stage of life, I was still going to achieve my goals and have a body that I wanted.

I changed who I was on the inside.

I started telling myself that I was vibrant and beautiful and full of energy and life.

All the sudden I started to believe it.

I ate healthier automatically.

I lost over 20 pounds.
