Bikini Season Bootcamp Part One: The Beginning

After attempting (and failing) to get into a khaki pencil skirt that I fit into just one month ago, I realized it's going to take more than just light jogging to get in shape for bikini season. I need to shift some of my food choices, plus do a little more exercise. I already eat pretty healthy, I just need to curb a few bad habits, and get my booty moving on the daily. Here's my plan:


Eat this not that:

-Oatmeal with cinnamon for breakfast, not cereal. I just use quick oats and add skim milk. I find I don't miss the sugar, but you can add a little Splenda/sweetener if you want. 

-Mixed nuts instead of candy. Costco has some great mixes right now, PS.

-Eating fish at least once a week. This is hard because my boo is allergic, so I have to grab some sushi or fish tacos on my own. Usually it's a lunch meal.

-Switching to all natural coffee creamer, such as Natural Bliss in Sweet Cream. Read your labels, your creamer should only be cream. 

-Eating fruit every day. I hate bananas, but I eat one a day. Or I try to eat an apple. 

-Swap my chip intake with Greek yogurt. 

-Drink less soda. I used to avoid the stuff, but my boo got me addicted again! (Not really, I just caved, but it's nice to blame someone else for your vices, right?)


Keep track of my water intake:
-I'm aiming for 60-80 ounces per day. I've heard a few different rules about your daily recommended water levels, so I just try to sip all day long and get as much in me as I can, without feeling like I just drank the ocean.



-Tea and lemon wedges are nice additions to plain water too.


Getting up at 6:30am to do this:

Or this:

Running, 3-4 times a week, for 1-2 miles. Then a huge run on Saturday.
-I'm going to try to run on the beach on the weekends. All I need now is a playlist to get pumped up to!

Tan Lines

It's a Free People kind of day. Getting inspired for summer and came across these fun and funky swimsuits + gear.



Definitely my fav.


Could not play volleyball in this one.


This look very comfy...



TG for zippers.


This bracelet is called "Neon Nugget" no joke.

(This isn't from Free People, it's from Pink Mascara).
