MIMM-Summertime!

Happy Marvelous in my Monday! I wasn’t planning on posting this morning, but I feel there is so much marvelousness to be celebrated! Thank you Katie for hosting, especially right after giving birth to a beautiful baby boy! Congrats!

Marvelous is…

Seeing 3 cats on my long run the other day. They live in the rocks by the water-they are all spayed/neutered and someone feeds them daily, even though they’re strays.

My research schedule this summer is totally flexible, so I never have to miss a workout or hit rush hour!

My Health Psychology professor is a spin teacher…whose class I’ve taken! It took me the entire class to figure out where I recognized her from!

A COLLEGE healthy living conference in the works! YAY! I’ll keep everyone updated on that!

Summer fruit. 

Also, as far as my summer shape up, I FINALLY figured out a goal for the week!

Make a REALISTIC workout and meal plan for the week. There are a few reasons for this:

1. I HATE wasting food. HATE. A meal plan helps avoid tossing old food and overbuying.

2. I tend to make unrealistic plans. Like HOURS of exercise a day; I often don’t think through how long things actually take. I’m more of a “Ooo this looks fun I should do it!” type of person. Which can lead to burn out, or general laziness. (I mean if I skip one thing, I might as well skip everything<- bad mindset). I also have never been able to stick with a meal plan. Like not ever, not one day. So it’s a new challenge-but if that plan is unreasonable, there’s no way I can stick to it!

And with that, have a Marvelous week!
