Good Morning March

by Nicci on 03/01/2010

Happy March

I tweeted for a couple days about my Birthday gift from my lovely boyfriend….a new cell phone. I couldn’t decided what phone to get, but everyone said ”You must get the Iphone, you’ll love it”…and so I did. Have I become addicted to this device…just a tiny bit. I hope this will pass in a couple days as I’m realizing not every app can be added. I am happy to say my addiction only cost me $10, in apps/ring tones. It’s better than the Itouch that I was gifted last year too. I gave the Itouch to my lil brother, since I see no reason to have both.

I’m sitting at my desk sipping on Hot Pomegranate Pizzazz Tea and playing on the Iphone.

February Fitness:

My 28 days of fitness went well; I had been sneaking fitness in on lunch breaks at work. My gym is across the street which allows me 30 minutes to get on the tread and run. Working out pays off…I’ve lost 5 pounds and notice my jeans are looser.

Goal Accomplished!

Sad to say our laptop finally died the other day, right before I posted a new blog. My plan was to buy a new laptop next week, but I guess this week it will be shopping time! You can expect to see more posts early in the morning from work. Lol

I prefer Dell but Chris likes HP, any suggestions on a laptop brand? What do you have?

This snow didn’t stay around too long, by noon the snow had melted away.

Breakfast: Chai Tea and a icky brown banana..still good though.

Snack: peanut butter crackers

Lunch: The best Turkey sandwich EVER!!

My turkey sandwich was simple: Turkey, loads of spinach, light mayo and s&p. I devoured this down, I think I should have eaten a bigger breakfast.

Greek yogurt with raisins. I had tortilla chips, but decided they were too salty to chomp on.

The raisins added the sweetness I was craving.

Yum

Dinner: Leftover turkey, sweet potatoes and dressing. It was good and I ate every bite. No pics…camera died by then.

I added some Christmas to our coffee table last night.

My white/gold candle decided to hide from you…may need a taller one.

**News**

I haven’t even ran a official 5k, but I’ve decided to challenge myself and run a half with Kels and some other ladies! Wish me luck!! I think I’ve lost my mind, but as long as I train, give it my all…I’m Happy!

Have a great night,

- Nicci

PS. (I forgot to mention I’m doing the Dallas Rock n Roll, March 2010)

Time to Tone

by Nicci on 09/23/2009

I have decided I need to work on my toning. I want to look hot in my Halloween costume this year and it’s a wee bit tight! I’m going to take on Jillian using her 30 Day Shred! I’m not big on posting weight and inches but I may do it this time around.

Whose up for a challenge?

I’ll be shredding 3-4 times a week until Oct. 24Th. This is the perfect time to tone up, since many blogger’s have pulled out their Shred dvds again. Shoot me an email (uptownfitchic@gmail.com) or leave a comment below if you’d like to shred along. I think it would be nice to encourage each other and talk about likes and dislikes while doing this challenge. Or just leave a comment below.

This morning I realized I should invest in a lunch bag, so I’ll be purchasing one after work. I’m starting to carry too many tubs and bags to work plus my giant purse too.

I officially had a full tum tum after this.

I think I had too much fun at work today doing online shopping. Okay, I was just buying office supplies, but any form of shopping is fun for me! (I’m a dork)

Lunch was a bore b/c everyone went home or ate out.

Me and my AB & JELLY sandwich ate alone in the kitchen
