Nail Grow Out Challenge

I'm on a mission to grow my nails out nicely. It bothers me to look at all of the pretty nail polish I have (and all the others I want) and, when I get all lacquered up, I'm dealing with nails of varying lengths, shapes, etc. So, here's my plan, and challenge to grow my nails out.

90 Day No Buy Challenge

Jesus take the wheel.  My beauty spending has gotten out of control!  How do you know when you have a slight problem?  When you start accumulating boxed products in random places (purses, gym bags, makeup storage, etc).  I have so many eyeshadow palette refills that still haven't seen the palette!  Yeah, it's like I keep buying and buying, but failing in actually trying and using the products (on a consistent basis).  So, for the next 90 days, I am on a no buy mission.  Sure, I might miss out on some of the makeup collections but really, I have more than enough makeup to keep me busy.  The same goes for hair products.  I seriously doubt some new fab conditioner will be limited edition and disappear forever during this 90 day challenge.

Oh, and in case you're wondering why I chose 90 days?  Well, I'm on track for a raise in June, which I should hopefully "see" in July!  But, I'm also hoping that this challenge will help me to foster better spending habits and fiscal responsibility.

So, have you ever done a "no buy" challenge?  What tips do you have to resist the urge to splurge?

Until next time, be well...

Beyonce Body Challenge - 1st Update

Well, it's March 3rd, the beginning of a new month.  This also means I've completed the first month of the body challenge I'm doing with my girl Vee .  While I'm happy with the loss in weight, I feel like I could have worked out more.  I think I was being too ambitious thinking I could do two fitness programs at the same time.  That, and the fact that I just couldn't seem to get into both of them with the same level of interest.  So, for this 2nd month of the challenge, I think I'm just going to stick with one program (Turbo Fire).  I'm going to focus on more cardio and healthy eating to lose weight.  Then, once I'm satisfied with my weight, I'll switch to more strength training to better tone up.  I have about 20lbs to go, before hitting what I initially deemed as my "body weight" goal.


So, do you have any fitness/health goals?  If so, how are you doing?

Thanks for stopping by.  Be well.
