1. Photos that just convey the wrong message. Danae (my hot date to our friend Kerianne’s wedding) and I could not stop laughing hysterically at how much we look like a lesbian couple here. #OrangeISthenewblack.
2. The movie Tammy. Pretty predictable, but so funny. Plus it totally reminded me that I really want to go to Kentucky (yah, I’m weird like that).
3. The Dirty Lemonade from Cru Juice. Tastes like an amazing summer indulgence, but with a reasonable amount of only natural sugars and all the detoxifying properties that come along with activated charcoal and bentonite clay. Hmm…I wonder if you can still clean out your system while you’re swilling a cocktail? This ish would make a great mix ;)
4. Those (kinda rare) days when it all just seems to work. Woke up naturally at 5 a.m., ploughed through some writing, enjoyed a sunny afternoon, annihilated the most difficult workout I’ve faced in a LONG time, ate perfectly nutritionally the entire day and just all-around loved life. Wish they could all be like that.
5. Surprise lobster dinners. It’s hard work getting into those babies, but so, so worth it.
6. New Lulu gear. I’m officially cut off from buying anything there (or anywhere, really) until well into the fall, but seriously, nothing lifts my sprits quite like new workout garb.
7. Throwing the football around. Actually, throwing….not so much. Catching, however, I’m pretty damn good at.
8. Progress. Thank goodness I started taking photos of my physique when I buckled down in May, because at a certain point of athletic pursuits the scale just stops being an effective measure of what’s happening (it also starts to become a mind f*ck). I have a tough time seeing progress on myself, so having images that can be lined up side by side is a very helpful motivational tool for me. Buckling down for one more week and can’t wait to see where I will be heading into summer vacation (and my 30th year of life).
9. Chocolate peanut butter coconut milk ice cream. I mean, there are no words. And yes, I do make that fit into my target macros, thank you very much!
10. That moment when you realize you’re a total fitness nerd: Icing my knees, eating my 4 ounces of chicken breast, reading Fitness Rx and catching up on the Crossfit Games. Side note: I’m not a cross fit athlete, I even take issue with some of the elements of the sport, but I just tricking love watching this stuff. And the women’s events in particular. What other sport is there when the female performances are equally (and sometimes more) impressive than the male’s? That alone is worth smiling about.
