Leg Workout, My Boyfriends, & Black Coffee Virginity

June 6, 2013 by Christine Skari

Hello lovelies! Hope everyone’s Thursday is going okay :). Here’s what I’ve been up to since yesterday.

Gyming it up!

I started off with my 20 minute elliptical workout:

And then moved on to do some leg weights! I really wasn’t in the mood to use my arms, so I didn’t do a full body workout like I normally do. The booty is sore today, though, so it was a successful workout!

Leg Workout:

Walking Lunges: 2×20 with 60 lb dumbbell
Dead Lifts: 3×8 with 100 lb dumbbell
Squats: 3×10 with 60 lb dumbbell
Bridges: 3×20
Box Jumps: 3×15
Jump Lunges: 2×30

ARGHHH get swoll!

After my workout, I went with Kyle to go watch his tennis match. He’s a boss at tennis and plays in our school’s intramural advanced mens league. He played so well and won with a huge margin, putting him in the finals since he’s been undefeated this quarter. That’s my boy!

After, we met up with Hot Ryan to get Vietnamese food. I joke that Hot Ryan is another one of my boyfriends (I’ve claimed 4 so far ;)) and he and Kyle (boyfriend #1) get along fairly well. Just look at the love in their eyes! They actually made me take this photo over 5 times since they couldn’t get the endearing look right haha. I’m glad our love triangle works out so perfectly.

NOM so hard

On another note, can I get an amen for getting all of these workout clothes for $48? I’ve written a post about my love for the iPhone app Poshmark and scored all of these beauties for such a great deal. They all were new with their tags too ;). HALLELUJAH!

Sorry for bombarding you guys with photos, but how cute are these photos of Kyle losing his black coffee virginity?

“Nope. How do you drink this??”

Ahhhh, I love that boy.

The rest of my day will involve lots of class, my last lab of the year, and tons of studying. I only have 7 days left of college before I go home for the summer! I hope finals go by fast .

xoxo Christine

WIAW #4

Hello and happy hump day! Since I usually post what I eat on Tuesday, I decided to just include the other things that went on yesterday as well.

Breakfast: Fruit salad with granola and cottage cheese for some protein. COFFEE!

Lunch: Hayuuuggeee salad with some honey mustard dressing. And a SUPER delicious spiced chicken burrito as well.

Dinner: Spaghetti with both meat sauce and pesto sauce with some caesar salad and a small piece of garlic bread.

I wasn’t feeling at all hungry, so dinner was a little on the small side for me.

Snackage: The lazy girl’s way of eating a banana and PB.

After eating, I read some blogs and got inspired to go on a run. Let me tell you, running after a spaghetti dinner is probably the worst idea anyone has ever had in the existance of forever. I ran two miles before calling it quits and walking a quarter of a mile home.

I love UCSB!

I felt pretty gross and sick, but the walk back helped me get back some bounce to my step and I joined some friends for Zumba! We even managed to persuade Hot Ryan to come dance with us. That boy sure knows how to get down and shake dat ass ;). He particularly excels at the sultry dance moves.

Sexy and he knows it!

#divas

Zumba was a ton of fun, but like usual, I looked like a total goof trying to keep up with the instructor. My sport since I was 5 years old has always been soccer (I was captain of a Club team for the last 6 years!) and I’m the most uncoordinated person ever when it comes to dancing. I kid you not when I say that Hot Ryan is a better dancer than I am ;).

After our workout, some of my main ladies and I tried out a homemade honey facial. I’m not sure if it actually worked any magic on my skin, but it tasted delicious!

The rest of the night is going to include a coffee/chocolate date with my love bug and studying a bit for my upcoming finals.

One happy camper

4 lbs!!

I hope everyone else had some wonderful eats as well!

A Great Run & Cheap Find

June 3, 2013 by Christine Skari

Hey guys!

I hope you had a restful Sunday :).

I slept in till 9:30 this morning, which is the latest I’ve woken up since I can remember! Granted I slept pretty horribly (it was SO hot), but that’s still an accomplishment for me. I grabbed a quick breakfast of oatmeal, fruit, yogurt, and coffee and then plunged head first into work and studying.

*vomit*

After a while, I decided that I should probably stretch out a little since I’m still pretty sore from my workout on Friday. I youtubed a yoga video and it was great, I hadn’t realized what great resources you can find online!

I then put on some pump-up music to get me excited to go out for a run ;). I decided to not push myself to go as fast as I could and ended up running 3.5 miles at a semi-comfortable pace. I was pretty happy with my times seeing my “comfortable” pace is less than 20 seconds or so above my pushing pace!

When I got back, I did this killer 5 minute ab workout from the Fitnessista! I love her blog and read it everyday

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_tECr-h-GE&feature=player_embedded]

I read some blogs and then ate dinner. I wasn’t all too hungry so I just had some baked cod with lemon and a salad. Later on I nommed pretty hard on some cherrios and mini wheats though to make up for it!

Dinner was followed by more work work work with some breaks in between where I snagged these awesome Zella crops on eBay for less than $30! They usually sell for WAY more and I’ve been dying to get a pair in gray, so I’m a happy girl. A confession: I’m absolutely and irrationally obsessed with cute workout clothes. My inner hound dog comes out when it comes to the hunt for affordable pieces!

The new Game of Thrones episode came out tonight, so you can bet your pretty face that Kyle and I watched it over a coffee/See’s candy date! It literally was the most shocking episode ever. I still can’t get over it and all throughout the night Kyle and I have been exclaiming, “I can’t believe ______ happened! WTF!”.

After the episode Kyle helped me with some math and I studied a bit for a French test tomorrow.

It’s nice to be done for the day!

xoxo
