Catch-Up

It's been a while since I've posted, but I'm getting back into documenting my journey.

Health & Fitness:
I've been up & down. I'll have a few weeks where I'm consistently going to the gym, eating better etc. and then one little thing will throw me off & it'll take weeks to get back into it.

I'm sticking with the race-as-motivation plan, and am planning to join 1 or 2 local runners' groups so I can do group runs outside. I'm looking at the fall race calendar & I'm about to pick a 5K for the fall.

I've gotten back into the habit of adding fiber to my drinks, drinking more water, and eating a yogurt everyday. Most of this is with the help of www.joesgoals.com, because seeing it visually helps me track it. I've been having trouble remembering to take my pills & that's bad.

New job (as of February) means new insurance, and new insurance means at least some new doctors. I'm searching out a new gyn, dentist, & therapist. Luckily, Primary Care gets to stay the same.


Beauty:
I think I might need to see a dermatologist too. Or that could just be vanity.

I have a line item on my budget for salon visits. I've been consistent with hair appointments, but I'm still not doing facials as often as I'd like. Of course, right now my skin's pretty irritated, so that's out anyway.

I've accumulated a good deal of new cosmetics. And I can enjoy the results when I take the time to put it on - sadly, that is still not often enough. I have right now a combination of e.l.f., Sheer Cover & a high-ish end assortment from Sephora.

My hair is starting to have a lot of breakage again, mostly split ends that have worked their way up the shaft, so it's time to chop some off.

I bought a book on finding your style - haven't finished it yet.

I'm trying to set specific beauty goals, but so far I haven't come up with anything tangible.
