Workin on my fitness.. err, eventually.

Those shoes better make me look that good. 
(Just tell me they will.)

I know Ive said this in posts before.. but seriously, this time I'm going to make it a goal habit to work out! I need to desperately lose 20lbs! OK.. desperately sounds a little dramatic, but I would love to lose the weight. Ive spent enough time complaining, and really making myself believe that working out will not do anything. I guess I should prove my theory right then huh?! I know that along with working out, I need to control my eating habits.. Sorry Wendy's but I can no longer visit you frequently, and Coca Cola.. ohh how the departure will be a sad one! Maybe I will visit you on Sundays?? Everyone uses Sundays as their "cheat" day. I hate when people say "today is my cheat day". I think I despise this, because the food they "cheat" with is food I have such a great trusting relationship with, id be cheating if I didn't visit the snack isle.
Really though, I cant complain. I had a baby 7 months ago, and my weight is just about where I was before I got pregnant, I also only gained 30lbs my whole pregnancy (I lost 15 in the first 2 months). After, I could fit into my jeans.. and then all of a sudden I couldn't. I blame it on not breastfeeding longer, and also I found out that there are 2 different kinds of IUD's and the one I have has hormones released, which can cause weight gain. Awesome.
But I cant really blame weight gain on anything but myself.. I couldn't give you a number of how often I work out, because often and working out are not words I associate with each other.
Ive always been able to eat what I want, even when putting on a few pounds I still had curves and looked alright. But my weight gain goes to my face, and then skips down to my thighs and butt. Now, after having a kid, it just goes all over. Lets talk about my butt! My best feature, I must say.. don't mean to brag, but if you have seen it, whether it be in jeans, or on the dance floor.. you might agree. In high school me and my friend Courtney got called Boom and Bam.. our butts were celebrities. Id like to say my Butt's still got it, but it could be a lot better. Looking back on pictures of my younger days..(clearly I'm soo old) I miss my skinny self... OK not that I'm obese, but i miss those flat tummy, perky boob, bubble butt, skinny face days!
I know these things are not hard to achieve(the boob part costs some money haha) its just putting forth some effort. I wanted to start working out everyday while i was "working" down in Provo... I say "working" because technically I don't work, I'm just lucky enough to have a generous father who pays me to watch my little brother everyday, every other week while he works. He stocks the fridge, I have Internet and TV, and I get to be with my daughter all day! Ohh ya he also set up the elliptical machine in the kitchen for me to use, hence the reason I should have no excuse to not get into shape. So I jumped on this Monday, and felt good... I then realized I have the rest of the week off and Thanksgiving is around the corner. till next time.

Things I want.

A few things I REALLY want. Emphasis on the REALLY.
The Flip Video recorder.. Its so cute in purple! They have a few different ones to chose from on there site, you can even design you own! This would be awesome to have for recording Harper, its small, portable and cute! This one is the most affordable, and holds up to two hours of video.


Coastal Scents 88 color eyeshadow pallet! Because I have so much time on my hands, Ive really been into watching makeup tutorial videos, in most they talk about using colors from this eyeshadow selection, you can find this and other pallets on the Coastal Scents website. I also have found alternatives to expensive MAC makeup brushes, I purchased one for $22! A lot of the tutorials create there looks using the MAC brushes, but I found a makeup artist who listed a cheaper version and matched them to the MAC brush it would compare too, I of course wrote them all down! They are Loew Cornell art brushes, and work just as well.


Next are these baby's! These are the Reebok Easytone. Apparently they work out your legs and butt. Even they say " Get a better butt, and legs with every step" OK, I'm sold. They are so cute, and seriously make me more motivated to work out, so I need them. Plus good shoes are essential for working out, especially with my feet, they are weird.

Sectional.
I know this is an odd addition to the above items.
NOT in these colors, and not this big, but I want a sectional sofa! You can design your own at Custom sectional designs. I absolutely hate my couches, one is even missing a cushion!! It would make my apartment so cozy! :)


Guess swimsuit at buckle.
I love the colors! Not that I'm swimsuit ready, but who cares, I love this swimsuit!!



Of course, because I'm a cell phone junkie.. this lovely Mytouch slide! Mike of course had to run out and buy this, so now I have to have one!

Roman Numeral tattoo... not where she has it tho. I will probably get it on my wrist. Ive wanted another tattoo for a while, and have a few ideas. One was to get Harper tattooed somewhere, but now I'm going to get her birth date in roman numerals! I really like the idea.

I better stop here, because ill just keep thinking of things I want! Check out the baby related things I want on my other blog.
