WIAW + GIVEAWAY!

by Kathleen on August 1, 2012

High-Fives to Wednesday! Amazing how this day of the week comes so quickly! It’s another WIAW and another time to food gawk at my eats and all my other favorite bloggers eats. With so many colorful fruits and vegetables during the summer months, it’s pretty neat to see how everyone is using them to fuel their active lifestyles. My current obsessions are blueberries, raspberries, and fresh corn. I’ve been adding corn to almost all of my lunch salads. Love! I’ve also been a huge fan of using Greek yogurt in my egg and tuna salad instead of mayo. Tip: Use 1 T of Greek yogurt, 1/4 avocado, fresh lemon juice, and some seasonings of choice and blend! Thanks Jenn for always hosting and make sure to check out my GIVEAWAY below and enter! Have a great day!

Breakfast: 

Lunch:

Snack:

Dinner:
Let’s talk GIVEAWAYS, because it’s been way too long! Plus, I want to THANK all of you for all of your support, encouragement, and positive feedback that you have given me this summer to follow my DREAMS! It means so much to me to receive e-mails and comments from family and friends, but also from people who I’ve never even met face to face, who have got my back 110%. All of you ROCK my world. Just saying…

I’m going to be giving away 3 of my STRONG IS BEAUTIFUL t-shirts to 3 separate winners. I can only ship these to residents in the United State. Sorry! Winner will be announced on Monday!

All you need to do is:

  1. What is on your “fitness bucket list” for the month of August?
  2. What makes you beautiful?

GOOD LUCK and have a fabulous Wednesday!

    What is on your “fitness bucket list” for the month of August?
    *Doing the Color Run in Milwaukee at the end of August and taking my NASM CPT exam! So excited!
    What makes you beautiful?
    *I think my strong sense of self and a willingness to try anything make me beautiful because I’m able to laugh at myself and learn to love things I never thought I would by just throwing myself out there instead of being scared of what people may think.

    Hi! Okay, so my August “fitness bucket list” entails one key point: WHIPPING my booty into tip-top shape for my upcoming half-marathon. I run my FIRST ever half in a mere 7 weeks, and I am not ready. My bucket list includes setting up a strict running plan and sticking to it. I have been a bit lax in setting specific goals, and therefore I have gotten very offtrack with training. I want to fix this, NOW.

    What makes me beautiful? i have been striving to deal with my clean eating and fitness struggles. I am overing exercise addiction, fitness burnout, as well as letting go of my all too real desire for perfection. I am becoming more and more comfortable with exactly who I am. I am coming to accept that I do all that I can and that is enough. I am beautiful because I strive to be the best ME I can be. :)

    Bucket list for this month: Learn to eat veggies! As a single mother of 3 boys, I don’t always eat as healthy as I should. So, I want to work on setting a better example of healty eating for my boys.

    What makes me beautiful: My willingness to know that I may not be the best at everything or be the prettiest, but I’m always trying. I always put myself out there.

  133. My August bucket list, do a chin up for the first time, and what makes me beautiful is being a Mommy to my three daughters.

  134. My August Fitness Bucket List includes setting a new personal best in a 1/2 marathon (August 18). I feel the thing that makes me beautiful is my positive outlook and belief that anyone can do anything they set their minds to.

    Fitness bucket list: continuing weight lifting and martial arts training. Testing for my green belt in Quan li K’han. Working on getting better on my bicycle, first time out in 15 years last week was more difficult than expected. All while listening to my body, growing baby #2.
    What makes me beautiful: lifting weights has made me the strongest I have ever been and helped me to appreciate all that my mind and body can do for me, from helping myself to encouraging and teaching others on their personal journeys. Loving the changes from the definition in my biceps to knowing that each time I lift a dumbbell I am becoming the happiest, healthiest and hottest version of me possible. I am worth the effort!

    My fitness bucket list for August is to wake up earlier so I can increase my cardio mileage and start lifting again! I row at my college and need to start focusing on regaining my strength in my core and upper body. I have a month left until I begin practicing at 5:30 in the morning, and it is time to get my butt back into gear!

    And what makes me beautiful? Hmm..I guess my dedication to my family, friends, school, job and health, and that I’m always trying to be better so I can give others the best!

    My fitness bucket list is doing more outside activities with my kiddos. It’s been really hot so we haven’t been able to enjoy summer outdoors. A family bike ride is in our future this weekend.

    I think what makes me beautiful is being the best mom/role model I can be for my 4 amazing children. I’m healthy, fit, and family focused. In return, they have more interest in healthy cooking, being active, and my 4 year old even loves to do yoga with me. I wouldn’t want it any other way.

    My fitness bucket list is to continue kickboxing even when people tell me I can’t because of injuries. I want to learn to defend myself from attackers. I also want to be an inspiration to others at my dojo. I feel beautiful when my husband compliments me and tells me about the changes he sees in me, when I can see myself able to share with people about my struggles and how far I’ve come to get where I am.
