real quick

i've lost around 15 lbs since my move! it's been about a month and a 1/2. just weighed myself and even though it was after a run, yoga, and not eating anything yet this morning, i'm so pumped! haven't seen this number in a couple of years :) it's jumped up in the past week or so, i'd say i've lost about 7 just within the past couple of weeks. i've been trying of course, and i got sick, so i'm sure that helped. trying not to eat too late either, and cut back on the drinking.

to say my eating habits have improved out here is an understatement! i ate relatively good back home, but last night talking with belle-anne made me realize that i've had red meat once, and it was only a couple of bites, and chicken just a few times. basically meatless. HAPPY :D but Babs thinks i'm crazy and said if she was out here she would be JUST fine being the outcast that always ordered meat. can't wait to get a steak with her in Atlanta tonight, then run 10 miles next week to get it out!

New job + New cold remedy

I got the job at Heist! So excited. I'll be working for their new store, Undiscovered, which is connected to Heist. They just opened Undiscovered on January 29th of this year, here is a link with a little article on the store. It's a couple of business down on the list. Can't wait! I start training next Monday.

Shannon, the manager of Heist and the lady who interviewed me, was SO nice when she called. I was making vegetable soup and was so distracted with happiness and excitement that I almost forgot to finish!

I changed over to the James Brown pandora station after the news. When I think of celebration music, I immediately think the father of funk. The first song was "Get up, Get into it, Get involved"....Perfeccction.

ATL bound in 2 days!! :D

OH yeah, to get over my cold in just ONE day this is what I have done:

Sudafed, Claratin, Lots of emergen-C packs, lottts of Echinacea, Lemonsgrass, and Lemon tea, and the final tea that i'm pretty sure kicked me into gear this morning was a Moroccan Mint herbal tea. After a couple of those I was good to go. Lots of and only (for the most part) fruits and vegs. The soup I'm making now has: corn, peas, zucchini, onions, celery, lots of different kinds of carrots, pinto beans, just one potato, shaved ginger root, trader joes organic and low-sodium veg broth, tom juice, water, and lots of herbs and spices. i purchased all of these vegs from either the farmers market or trader joes for under $10 (all of them!).

This is exactly what was going through everyone's mind at the time, and someone had freshly spray painted this rock when we stumbled across it. Unique, hilarious.
