Everybody loves a freebie

Happy Friday everyone! I have a sweet (pun, ha) deal for you guys today but first I have some good news! Remember those goals I posted yesterday!? Well I tackled the biggest one on the list! I am now officially employed :) Wahoo. It can be extremely stressful searching for a job, re-writing cover letters and filling out endless applications but I am happy to say it’s all over! I start Monday so today is really my last day of freedom. Maybe my boyfriend will want to celebrate and take me to see Britney Spears and Nicki Minaj in Atlantic City tomorrow night??

I’ll be pleading for this when he gets home from work today. It’s worth a shot? :)

Yesterday I received a package from Activia. The poor fed-ex delivery man was super confused as he handed the box over because it was addressed to Fashion Fitness Foodie. After I signed, he asked – “so are you fashion?”. I’m really still not sure if he was joking.

I opened the package to see two yogurts inside.


French and Greek Yogurts – Yum! I decided I would have the Greek Yogurt after spin class.

1 container of activia dannon greek yogurt with 1/2 of a banana and some love grown granola.

This yogurt is so thick and creamy it almost reminded me of a mousse! We all know I love my dessert so this gets my stamp of approval.

To get your FREE yogurts head over to Activia’s Facebook page *below* and like them. You will then fill out a form and print your coupon. Easy enough, right? And while your on Facebook feel free to like my page as well :)

GOALS

So I’m a little late on making my August goals but I’m never on-time to anything so that doesn’t surprise me. I blame this all on my mom…She has always been known as the pokey little puppy. I’ve inherited this gene. Lucky me.. But as we all say better late than never! So here they go:

  • Work out 6x a week – My friend (and blog reader) Erin (hi!) sent me a 30-day free gym pass so I need to put it to good use!
  • Find a race to train for in NYC/NJ for the fall
  • No ice cream/fro-yo/cake/cupcakes until my birthday – I’ve become way to comfortable with having a decadent dessert every night. Granola/Cereal after dinner is fine but Ice Cream etc is off limits!
  • Pick up the job hunt search… I’ve been looking everyday randomly. I need to set aside 90 minutes daily to just apply to jobs.
  • Eat in all meals at least 6x a week if not 7. To save $ and to eat healthier.
  • Go kayaking, hiking or rock climbing on an off day of working out
  • Take the time while I’m not working to explore Hoboken/nyc – I’ve been re-cleaning the kitchen or making the bed 3 times a day. I need to get out more!

Now that I’ve gotten my goals out of the way I wanted to share some things I’m loving right now.

  • New headbands that STAY in my hair!
  • Manicure/pedicure – I feel like a girl again, thanks to my boyfriend :)
  • Mini vanilla wafers with peanut butter and dark choc chips – I’m not counting this as dessert!
  • Our family photo video montage that was made last week in the OBX. I watch it when I miss them :)
  • This article - Stop FAT bashing!!!!
  • Something borrowed AND something blue – I actually finished a book (for once) and not only did i finish one last week but i finished two. These were both so good! I wish there were more!!

Tell me something you’re loving and one of your goals for August!
