Again, this post is a little different from most of mine. Since my schedule has been unusually hectic, I have had 0 time to create anything its been sorta depressing really. As soon as I graduate I will have sooo much time, I will go back to my crafting hobby. Only 23 more days!
So many updates to catch you guys up on! I have officially accepted a job offer this week with ETS Solutions in Kennesaw as a Client Services Manager. It is an IT Firm that I will be doing all sorts of different things for, but mostly I will be maintaining relationships with current clients. It is just a perfect job to manage a good quality of life which is important as a single mom. I already know everyone that works there so its like a little work family. Next week will be my last week at the Aquarium. I am going to miss it, but definitely not the traffic! I am super excited to start working on the 28th for my first full-time career!
I also went to Hobby Lobby on Friday to buy crafts for my grad party which is on May 18th. Here's a picture of everything below! I will finally have stuff to put on here that I will be making once I have time to start on these crafts. The projects will be ranging from a chalk board, a distressed window, a burlap banner, food signs, a burlap wreath, and diploma shaped napkins! It is going to be so much fun, and I will have so much to post about.
Now that most of my updates are out of the way, I want to talk about my main topic...
WEIGHT LOSS
With my crazy, hectic, busy, and exhausting schedule. I have put on so much weight from stress eating to never being able to make it to the gym. It has been so frustrating since I actually love to exercise and stay fit. I have decided since I barely fit in anything anymore and I have vacation in a month and 4 days, something has got to change.

| Today, April 2014 (Right) 168 lbs. |
It is pretty depressing to see the before and after picture. A 33 pound weight gain has been weighing pretty hard on me (pun intended). At least my sister and Leighton look cute in that picture. I have got to do something. I am done with excuses, and I am changing this week. Starting Monday, I am going to wake up at 7 am every morning (but Tuesday I will do it after work) and vow to do the 30 Day Shred by Jullian Micheals. I am also going to watch what I eat along with drinking lots of water, and hopefully I can shrink down a little bit before vacation. Also, once I start my new job which I has a gym in the building I will have time and a place to go workout. So, here is the link to the 30 Day Shred on YouTube: http://youtu.be/1Pc-NizMgg8
You guys need to hold me accountable! I am going to check in next Sunday with the updates! In the meantime, I going to also start back up with my breakfast smoothies. Here is a recipe I want to share, it is called "The High Protein Egg White Smoothie"
