Cute Outfit of the Day: Peaches and Mint


top: Goodwill $4
jeans: Target $25
necklace: Goodwill $5
shoes: Goodwill $4
Total Cost: $38

Had a great weekend! On Saturday while I was at work, I got flowers sent to me from my wonderful hubby! The best part is that it was for no reason at all! He is so sweet! Then when I got home we went out to dinner at our favorite restaurant, Bravo! Then have a wonderful light menu now- all the meals are under 550 calories and they are super delicious!

I've been on this healthy diet for 7 weeks now and I'm feeling great! I always hesitate to tell people I'm on a diet because they usually laugh at me and say you don't need to do that. But about 8 weeks ago I found myself at a weight that shocked me! I was about 10 lbs more than I thought I was! Even some of my clothes were not fitting me! So I immediately got my butt into gear! I'm doing 3-4 intense cardio workouts per week eating under 1480 calories per day, and recording everything on My Fitness Pal- which has been super helpful for me! Feel free to follow me on My Fitness Pal and check out my food diary if you need some inspiration! I've also cut out gluten and dairy which has really helped my IBS a lot! So far I've lost 4 lbs and hope to loose just a few more but mostly get toned up at this point! Just wanted to tell you all and hopefully encourage some of you to get healthy too! It's so worth it- just do it!

Today I'm linking up with:

  2. I am on My Fitness Pal too! About 2 years ago I got into this workout program called P90X (i'm sure you've heard of it) and used MFP to keep track of my calorie intake. I don't weight myself much but I have a pair of 'scale' jeans. The moment I look like a sausage in them, then I know I've been having a bit too much of rice or pasta. I've been on protein soup diet, lately.. well, i can't call it a diet when I'm loving the food, right? Anyway, you look fabulous and all the best with you healthy eating/fitness quest!

  16. Pretty, summery look! Love that you've let you hair fly just a bit ... suits the mood of the outfit. Especially pretty with the little blue necklace. Really changes the feel of the combinations in a good way.

    Stop by for a visit sometime ... you'd be very welcome!

  17. I love that blouse! I have a pair of mint-colored jeans and I'm trying to find different colors to wear with them. I like the peachy color. What did you do to your hair to make it wavy? My haircut is similar to yours, but sometimes I would like to try something different other than wearing it straight.

    1. I scrunch my hair with some volume mouse and dry with a diffuser. Then I curl pieces with my flat iron to make loose beachy waves. Then finish with a Moroccan oil product so it looks soft and shiny! Hope this helps!

    2. Thanks! I've not curled with a flat iron.
