Hola!

I've been tagged to share a few things about me.. and I promise I will! I'll try for tonight.

Right now I am consumed with work, classes and looking for a place to live! Also, my computer broke and had to be sent away. It just cracked all of the sudden. Weird!

BUT, I had to fill you in on my 20 day challenge.

1. I am doing my clean eating/slight detox plan. I've put myself down for 20 days to rid myself of processed and junk foods. Yesterday was Day 1. I slipped a few times (hello, habits!), but today is 100% on so far! The key is planning.

2. I've fallen off the exercise wagon and can't get back on! When I'm exercising, I LOVE it. I make it a priority everyday because I know how good it makes me feel. But when I don't get one good exercise in for 3 days, I have a lot of trouble getting back into it. Right now I am not into it. As a result, I am lethargic and moody. I'm going to try to hit the gym for a good session tonight, but I also want to create a structured plan to go along with my eating challenge. I'd like to incorporate strength (upper, lower and abs), running, a bit of other cardio and Pilates once or twice a week.

So that's where I am. YAY on food, NOOOO on exercise. Maybe I'll devise an exercise plan by tonight and post it along with my response to the tags!

summer picnic

I've lost touch with many of my friends and will throw a picnic to bring us all together for a fun afternoon in the park. It will be in 3 weeks with about 40 people. I plan to bring a lot of dishes and have others contribute some side dishes of their own. And of course there will have to be fresh brewed iced tea! I'm planning on Frisbee, football and music.

Any other ideas for a fun afternoon? Recipes, games? I need suggestions here!
