Hey all!
Happy April Fools Day! Anyone get pranked or have any good pranks of your own? I haven’t yet, but got a few up my sleeves! Muhaha.
For me, a new month means new goals! Here are a few of them 
SOURCE
1) Incorporate more green smoothies and juices in my diet. At first, I was a little intimidated by the veggie fruit mixtures but after trying a Naked Green Monster and a baby green smoothie sample from Whole Foods, I think I’m hooked! They’re so yummy when done right and SO nutritious.
2) Get back on my running schedule! Aka my pre-frolics running schedule. I miss it. So. So. So. Much. I was running 5-6 miles a day with 1 day of sprinting, 1 long run, and 1 rest day of upper body lifting a week and felt SO great. During my super busy weeks of Frolics, I completely lost my sched. Not only did this affect my running but also my sleeping and eating habits… not good. I feel like my body’s just so confused right now… I just need my planned workouts back!
Couldn't help myself with this picture...
3) Experiment with more recipes! I have about 5 million recipes from my favorite blogs that I’ve screen-shotted and bookmarked on my phone and computer. They’re all SO yummy looking it’s time for me to plow through them! Once I’m out of school (April 13 woooo!) I feel like I’ll have so much time to cook up a storm!
I’m gonna include FINALLY set up my Recipe page! I promise that it’s on my list of things to do! Stay tuned…
4) Cut back on the snacks. It’s bad. Reallll bad. Lately I come home everyday and snack my life away (cough cough thank you PB Cheerios) then the sicky fullness makes it impossible to run (enter reason #2 for the messy running schedule). I just need to cut back on the afternoon/3pm snacking aka run right from school while I still can then run in the mornings once I’m out of school. Hopefully I can keep it up? I also should probably really think about WHY I’m snacking- am I actually hungry? Or just bored? (usually mu hungry is bored-hunger..)
Ps. not even gonna bother counting how many times the PB Cheerios have made an appearance in my posts in the past week. Update on those: Monday’s box was finished off tonight by me… yes, I single handedly om-nomed an entire box of cheerios in a week… it is an addiction, I think I need help.
5) Read more! My Kindle wish list is depressing. It’s literally like 8 pages long cause I keep finding more and more books that I want to read, but never have time to read them! I LOVE to read (yep, I’m a total nerd and am okay with it). I think I like to read more in the summer/nice weather though. Probably cause I read like it’s my job when I’m at the beach… The little taste of summer from a few weeks ago is making me miss my book-days!
What are your goals for April?
XOXO,
Caroline
WOW you get out of school SO early!! I am majorly jealous lol!! I go all the way until May 18th
Don’t stress about the snacking girl! That is totally normal to get hungry in the afternoon….its prime time for our bodies glucose levels to start to drop. Afternoon snacks are awesome for you!!
i think the addictive tendencies exhibited by those who purchase pb cheerios
are a reason why i have not yet bought them, or any of the cool flavored cheerios they’ve come out with! cheerios are not something i enjoy but the banana, chocolate, PB, etc ones are something i want and need to try. as soon as i’m confident their presence in my pantry won’t cause any…problems? hahaha
Happy April! I cant beleive another month is over.. time is flying by!
These are all great goals!
Some of my goals for April are to drink more water. I already drink a lot compared to a few months ago..
I also want to create a workout routine and stick to it.
Great goals! Good luck on getting back onto your schedule – just force yourself to do it and then soon enough you’ll be back to normal!
