Water Wars Week 3

Week 3 Update:

 Just chugging along! Both literally and physically.

 Week 3 is now in the books. Can't say that much has changed since Week 2, but I'm also waking up thirsty and drinking a little bit of water before I eat breakfast and then almost a full 20 ounces on my way to work in the mornings to get the day started. I do tend to "slack" on the weekends (not by much though!) because really, who has time to carry around a water bottle and find a bathroom every hour-especially when you're not home. I do the best I can, and still drink water with every meal too. I can tell the difference though, because by Monday I feel dehydrated and crave water. 

 I have WAYY more energy than I used to. I'm not sluggish throughout the day (unless I really didn't sleep good the night before), so I be kickin' it all day errrrday. 

I feel like my skin is the same. It's not as "changed" as I was hoping (expecting?), but also my skin wasn't that bad to begin with so I'm still okay with that. No breakouts that I can speak of, and if anything does pop up, it's gone the next day. Maybe I'm still flushing stuff out? Not sure how the skin anatomy of the face works, so I can't give you my professional opinion. 

And apparently one of my water bottles leaks now? So I have to drink out of a paper cup, which actually is a lot easier to gulp. Must have had a wild weekend while I was gone from work ;) And makes it so I'm actually drinking more than I was doing before.

 [[of course I didn't even realize this until my jeans were continuously getting wet and I didn't know why!]]

Honeymoon Part 1

Where to start, where to start? It's surreal to me how we've ALREADY been married over a week, AND that we've already been to the Bahamas and back :( The Bahamas (in Nassau to be exact) is such a beautiful place. It's the same island that has the Atlantis Resort on it, which we could see in the distance down the coast from our resort. We really picked the perfect place to spend our honeymoon. We left cloudy, rainy Dallas and Atlanta to sunshine and white sand, blue water, and 80 degree weather! It's so crazy to me that we've already been back from there after spending the week out of the country.  Obligatory newlywed plane selfie Monday morning came dark and early at 4am to catch our first flight out of DFW. I was proudly wearing my super comfy new "wifey" sweatshirt that my friend/bridesmaid Shohreh got me-thank goodness she stalks me on Pinterest ;) along with our brand spankin new wedding bands. Robert's ring looks so good against his ...

Water Wars Week 1

This entire month, I've been challenging myself to drink at least (or close to) a gallon of water each day. So that's roughly 50 ounces before lunch, 50 ounces after lunch, and a bottle at both lunch and dinner. I was intrigued to do this after I saw a before/after of a lady whose face looked completely different (in a great way!) from before she started drinking. Face was clear and glowing and looked so smooth. She also saw 30lbs of weight loss without changing anything (which obviously I'm not going for), but still! The benefits of making this a habit is nothing but positive! My skin is pretty clear most of the time, but every now and then a whopper will show up and STAY for weeks it seems like. With a wedding and plenty of photos on the horizon, I want to try anything I can to be at my best for the day of. Hence the drowning, I mean drinking, of so much water per day. Week 1:   I started officially on Tuesday, January 6, and the first couple of days were filled w...

To cut, or not to cut...that is my question!

More like a dilemma. I've done it before, and I've grown it back out, so I can do it again-right? I feel like everyone has short hair these days (I currently have the longest hair on my team at work!) , and all I wanted when I had short hair was to have long hair again. Now that it's long (and gross and fried and ick at the ends) I want to go short. But then I have an awesome long-haired day and think I want to keep it long. Do you see my problem here? Summer is coming, so it's going to be up in a pony tail or bun most days, so that just seems like such a waste of hair. But I sweat a lot and since summer is hot, wearing it in it's intended short style probably wouldn't last.  What is a girl to do?!
