Remember women laughing alone with salads and how much fun that was?

Now there’s a new trend.  Jumping on in your wedding pictures.

Just look at these people jumping on a pile of sand in front of romantic Lake Michigan.

 

 

“Okay, everyone just jump and throw your hands up! Kim, don’t worry about your black flip flops, we can photoshop them out!” (or not)

 

“Jazz hands everyone! Jazz hands!”

“Okay, on the count of three. One, two…come on now people, crouch down really low…”

“We’ve got our feet firmly planted, while everyone around us is up in the air.”

This also looks like a Bar Mitzvah dance performance.

 

 

Let’s try this one again…

 

 

It’s as if he’s saying “Get me out of here!”

 

“Let’s incorporate our love of extreme cycling into our wedding pics.”

 

This just looks dangerous.

“Lol, Ron and Laura are so funny you guys! They went bungee jumping for their vows!”

 

“Don’t look down you guys, we’ll photoshop the trampoline out.” (or not)

 

“Okay, jump up and scream. Just start screaming.”

 

Ready, Set, GOAL….and the Lululemon Athletica Manifesto…

So I’ve been sick in bed all week and a million things have gone through my head.  I started to panic and worried that I might need to get an additional day job.  For some reason in my cold medicated state of mind I thought that going to apply at Lululemon Athletica would be a good idea.  Why?  A discount, but then I thought that going undercover and infiltrating the store might make for an interesting expose for a women’s magazine.  It could also get me either brainwashed or in a lot of trouble, and completely get me off my path of things I must accomplish in the next 6 months that are time sensitive.  So rather than apply for a job at a retail store that I’d most likely be fired from, because I’ve never been good with retail and I get a little sassy.  I decided to write out a list of goals.  I shared this on Twitter, and look who contacted me.

 

Oh Lululemon…! LOL.

Anyway.  Here’s a copy of the Lululemon Manifesto.  Really good advice, and seriously.  Write out FIVE goals for yourself that you want to accomplish in the next year.  That’s your homework for today.

 

Fun With The Master Cleanse! Yay! Fun!

A lot of people I know have recently started the Master Cleanse.  Good for them.  I honestly do not know how you do it!

I have attempted this cleanse multiple times, along with various juice diets, and it’s just not for me.  I still do have this pre-mix stuff in my kitchen though if I’m ever feeling like I want to give it a go.

 

I have been ill all week with something that Eric and I have called the “Digifest Virus”-most likely from that event at Terminal 5 a few weeks ago.  Crazy kids!

So!…Being sick has been a great jumpstart to my diet.  I’ve mainly been having cookies, soup and generic Theraflu throughout the day.  To my friends on the Master Cleanse, and those who are REALLY interested in learning more about it, go here.

My suggestions for making the Master Cleanse fun?

Here are my suggestions (NOTE: These may not work with the “rules” of the cleanse, but they certainly can’t hurt)

Master Cleanse Jello!

Add pre made Vibrant Cleanse powder to a packet of plain gelatin!=Pure YUM!  And awesome for hair, skin, and nails!

 

Are you a drinker?  You can sub the water for a lil shot of vodka.

 

Or throw a bunch of ice in a blender and make a frothy smoothie!

 

Detoxifying has never been so much fun!

My Attempt At The Paleo Lifestyle…

Well…I’ve come to the conclusion that the Paleo diet reminds me a lot of when I tried the Atkins diet.  Except that you can’t melt cheese all over everything and douse it in sour cream.

HERE is some info about Paleo eating.

 

I followed the diet pretty much up until 10:00pm tonight.  That’s when I had a jumbo peppermint patty and a chocolate bar.  This was AFTER I had a very healthy spinach salad with oil and vinegar dressing (although I’m not sure if cavemen had access to vinegar)  Oh yeah, and I had a pint of Artic Zone ice cream…it was only 150 calories and gluten free.  I know cavemen didn’t have access to ice cream either…so it looks like I failed at my attempt to start this lifestyle change, at least for today.

I have decided that I will not give up coffee.  No matter what.  Any diet that doesn’t allow you coffee is cruel.

These are my thoughts for today.
