Casual Weekend Outfit...

I have signed on a new tennis student for Saturday mornings which will get my weekends started off right! I truly have become a morning person so getting up on the weekends around 8 doesn't bother me at all. I love to spend my days outside playing tennis, running through a wooded area, or working on house projects. Last weekend was spent mainly doing Drake Men so this weekend I am hoping to fit in some shopping, lunch with friends, and a much needed date night with the hubs!

This whole week I have been more motivated than ever to get off some of these pounds and creating this outfit makes me even more determined. I am truly one of those girls that is 5'4" weighs 132lbs, which is average, and still doesn't always feel comfortable in my skin. When I wear certain outfits like this I can feel a jiggle here, a jiggle over there. What ends up happening is I opt out of the outfit and put on a flow-y summer dress. Which is still cute but I want to be able to walk around knowing that I feel good and not only look good but feel healthy.

The hubs and I have started this new lifestyle change where we only eat for pleasure on the weekends. We will have a date night and maybe split some dessert but we try not to overdo it on week days. I guess a lot of this has to do with our own family member’s health issues. We don't want to get older and not be able to play with our kids or be in and out of the hospital every few months. If we are going to change our ways we might as well do it now before we have kids and while we are still in our 20's.

Having said that I am off to a quick trip to the gym, then off to see my family. Have a great weekend and I hope you get out and enjoy the great summer weather!
