Hey everyone! It’s business as usual after a long weekend for me …
… one filled with faaaar too much alcohol.
I went to a country music festival with one of my best friends, so Friday/Saturday contained a lot of dancing and vodka + water + lime juice beverages (my “go to” lately), and I got very little sleep for most of the weekend. I was determined to start feeling as human again yesterday, so I took advantage of the holiday Monday to get my groove back. The way to do that? First off, sleep (and lots of it!!):
Thank you, Sleep Cycle app, for telling me exactly how much sleep I got 
Other things I did yesterday to return to normalcy …
Consumed nothing but healthy foods, including this smoothie (frozen strawberries, peaches, Greek yogurt, and water).
Hit the gym hard. I did 1.5 miles of incline walks and sprints, a 3 mile bike ride, and then some upper body work. Sweating is good.
I also decided that if there was an Olympic event for having the gnarliest hair after a workout, I would have made Canada very proud yesterday 
Shopping obviously makes a girl feel better about life. I found this dress for THIRTEEN DOLLARS and added one of my belts. I’ll be wearing this tonight to my best friend’s bridal shower!
And I caught up on The Newsroom! My obsession continues.
As a result of it all, I feel like a human again! Yay! I’m ready to tackle what is sure to be another crazy week.
What do you do to feel like yourself again after a weekend of not so good behaviour?
I always wear dresses with belts around the waist, I love that look!
I love that dress, it’s such a great colour! That smoothie looks delicious!
Horrayyy for feeling human! I know that feeling far too well… I usually eat lots of veggies and drink a ton of water to help get back on track!
sweet dress! it always feels great to get back to your healthy groove after a few days of unhealthy ways:)
Umm, I would definitely give you a run for your money in the gnarly hair olympics. I think (sadly) you’d be moved down to silver. Sorry.
Vodka, water, lime juice is my jam! When I drink hard liquor that is… my body can’t seem to tolerate it as well now, at the ripe old age of 23.
I agree; shopping always makes a girl feel better about life! After I had a crappy few days I decided to take some of my birthday money and head to Victoria’s Secret and went to town. Yep, felt tons better after that one.
Best $13 ever spent! haha
What a great deal on such an adorable dress <3 Great job for getting back on track after a day or so of induldges. I usually eat lots of veggies, fruit & water
oh & p.s i’m jealous that you got to enjoy a country music festival!!!
