MFP: SAN ANTONIO GIRLS TRIP + ADVOCARE CHALLENGE

Hey Fancies! Hope everyone had an awesome weekend. 

Besides starting to come down with a bit of a cold, I managed to enjoy a girls trip to San Antonio Riverwalk this weekend. It turned out to be a blast! I'm SO glad I went.


Sad that she had to use her Fila bag on the trip :-D

Begging ducks!

The weekend turned out nice and relaxing. It's just what I needed as I started coming down with a cold on Friday :-( I'm making it thru though and just have a runny nose and lots of sneezing, which is much better than what I've seen going around.

Some awesome shopping finds from this weekend...I found an amazing Fossil purse...LOVE LOVE! The leather is SO soft and the purse is made very well. It works with all outfits too!

I was also very excited to try the Estee Lauder - Double Wear foundation in 3W1 Tawny. It's a great Medium to Full coverage foundation that has gotten rave reviews! Very excited to test this out this week!




New Fitness Challenge:

In other great news...Bob and I decided to try the Advocare 24-Day Challenge today! My friend Kelly, from pics above, and her hubby have lost 50+ pounds between the two of them using this stuff. My trainer from bootcamp also uses it and says it amazeballs!


I forgot to grab a measuring tape while out at Target yesterday, so I'm going to run out this afternoon to grab one and make sure I start off right by taking my before then after measurements. I'm really pumped. I think this is just what I needed to start my weight-loss off right.

The Sparks are delicious as I've had them before, but I was nervous about the taste of the Fiber Drink. It works just like Chia Seeds. If it sits in liquid for a bit of time it gelafies (that's my made up word). I mixed it with a bit of orange juice and it was better than I thought. I would relate it to drinking flaxseed with some pulpy orange juice. It was good...I was expecting bad...but if you like ground flaxseed you'll love this! 

I jumped on the scale and gained a couple of pounds this weekend. It's expected since I did not get a chance to work out this weekend. I start bootcamp tonight and will probably be SO sore and not able to walk since it's been so long since weight training was mixed in my fitness schedule. I'm looking forward to the pain. As Megan from Miss Madisons Charmed Life says, "My FAT is CRYING"! That will be me tonight!

I want to know about your challenges, your fitness commitments, and your opinion so leave a comment! Hope everyone has a great Monday.
