A Praying Life by Paul Miller. It was recommended by a girl I follow on Instagram @amyhale. It's so good!
Running...
in my new shoes. I finally broke down and bought new running shoes because my hips were hurting so bad during and after every run. I was holding out because I really hate how much good shoes cost, but I immediately noticed a difference and don't regret the splurge one bit. I have finally broken the 5 mile mark. I was stuck at three miles forever but just 2 weeks with my new shoes and I'm on my way to a 10K!!
In love with...
my fit bit zip. I'm kind of addicted to it. I had quit wearing it for a while but started up again a few months ago and it really makes a difference for me. I can't stand to go to bed if I haven't met my daily steps goal!! I find myself purposely moving around a lot more when I'm wearing it. I park further away when I go to stores, I pace around the kitchen when I am helping with homework, I break into spontaneous dance parties more often and I jog in place at 5 minutes til midnight just to get a few more steps in. It is super motivating. I heart it! I am thinking about upgrading to the Fit Bit One soon because I would love to track my sleep!
Drinking...
a lot less Diet Dr. Pepper and a LOT more water. I've cut my Diet Dr. Pepper intake in HALF!! That's huge, people!! I won't share with you how much I was drinking each day because honestly, it's embarrassing. I haven't been to Fiesta Mart for a fountain drink in 3 weeks!!! I had horrible headaches the first week or two but I am starting to get used to it. Soon I might even try to cut back again. I can't imagine NEVER drinking Diet Dr. Pepper...I love it too much...but I think it was time I cut back a little. Okay, a lot!
Making...
lots of mini spirals. They make great gifts!
