Merry Holidays & Happy Workouts!

If I didn't know any better- I'd laugh at you if you told me it were December! Yikes. 80 degress for basically the next week here in L.A. I hope all of you in normal weather places are enjoying cold & snow. I was looking forward to that at the beginning of this month. But I was fooled. I actually out on my bikini today and layed by the pool. Haven't done that since August. My goodness! But I'm going with it. It did feel really nice. Not gonna lie. I would like to see some snow though, just sayin ! ;) 

I hope you all enjoyed your Dec. 25th, and for whatever that day meant to you! For me it was Christmas + and my anniversary with my boyfriend. (Yay we did it!) Lol. 3 years!  Pretty exciting. We decided to nix our plans, which was just our usual- going to the movies as our first was 3 years ago, and making a romantic dinner <3 For spending time with my family. Which always wins over everything. Plus it's rare for my sister to live in the same state as me. So for once we decided to drive down and visit and had a blast. Even stayed up til 6 am. Don't recommend that! :/ Still recovering. 

But for christmas I got workout clothes and other cool stuff from my mom & sister. And also an awesome watch I've been wanting for workouts. Since I don't go to the gym. I wanted some way to record or track the actual calories I was burning and monitor my heart rate. And OMG. Just got home from doing my normal workout with it. Pleasantly surprised! I seem to range from 125--177, with it mainly staying at 135-145. But now that I can see it, I'm motivated to move faster and I did! I ran all the way home and I never do that! I knew this watch would inspire me, so I'm excited about working out now. I really just want to see what happens when I do videos at home. I never have any idea if I am getting my heart rate up enough or what I'm burning so I'm looking forward to it! :) Going to do a toning video after I take down christmas decor. Yes- I am quick to take everything down! I like things to be clean again. I love the decor before- but I also like to get back into focus mode. The 'black out" is almost finished. And I will be auditioning again starting the 6th when it's all back and running. I'm trying to get extra extra prepared for it! I want to start this year off with a BANG. I am going into 2014, believing in myself and all that I'm capable of. No regrets. No excuses. Just moving forward.

I'd love to hear your new years goals in the comments below! :) <3
