Currently: April 2017

Posted April 4, 2017 by shooting in Uncategorized / 42 Comments

I’m linking up with Anne at In Residence and Sweet Little Ones
Accomplishing: My weight loss program. I’m down 20 pounds and noticing it a lot in the clothes I’m wearing. I weigh in tomorrow, so we’ll see then if I’ve lost anymore, but for now, I’m really excited. I’ll be doing more posts specifically about this but I have one up already that introduces you all to what this program is all about! 

Feeling: Excited about the direction my blog is going in. I’ve been mostly entertainment – with a large focus on books – for such a long time. But I love reading lifestyle posts and so I want to bring more of that into Shooting Stars Mag. If you regularly read my blog, then you’ve probably noticed the mix. Hopefully you are enjoying it overall! 

Needing: More LulaRoe leggings and Irma Tunics. I wear these all the time, and they are so cute and comfortable. Plus, with me losing weight, these pieces of clothing still fit okay so it means I can keep wearing them throughout the program. I’m slowly getting new clothes for the warmer months, but I like when I can get something and KNOW I can keep wearing it for awhile. 

Practicing: I’d like to say I’m involved in something really fun that involves practice, but alas, I am not. I AM however trying to find someplace close by that is doing dance classes during the summer. I miss it! 

Pinning: Lots and lots of Easter things. I wish my nieces and nephew were in town because I’d love to do so many of these crafts with them. Regardless, I’m pinning them for other people to find and to hopefully put to use in the future. I’m really trying to use Pinterest more, so if you want to follow me there, that would be awesome! 

What are you currently up to?
(Also, if you’re new, I’m an Usborne Consultant (books for many ages- not just kids) and I’m looking for people to set up Facebook parties this month! I’m donating $5 to Autism Speaks for every party that is at least booked this month so get in touch. My shop is here if you want to browse)

  1. I love that you are donating to autism research! Makes me like you more than I already do! 😉 <3
    I only have one pair of LLR leggings, but I need to get more! I'm obsessed!

  2. That is a fantastic accomplishment with the weight loss. Good for you! You should be tremendously proud! I think that I'm the only person in my city that doesn't own a single pair of Lularoe leggings but I do have a lot of friends on my facebook feed who are die hard sellers that have been itching to get me into a pair LOL! I've heard they are glorious. I'm a jeans girl and in the summer I love my long flowy skirts.
    I pin all the things! Mostly quotes and journal things right now!

  3. TWENTY POUNDS! that's fantastic!

    i've managed to slough off almost that many… about fifteen since mid-january, but i've stopped going to the gym and am on a plauteau. one day…

  4. I love these currently posts so much 🙂

    Uhm, can we talk about your 20-pound WEIGHT LOSS!?!!? Dude. That's fantastic!!! Congratulations momma, and hope you are taking some cute and sexy clothes out of your closet for a spin (AND that you treat yourself to some new stuff to feel good in!).

    Also it looks like Kimberly and I are the only LuLaRoe hold-outs lol. ERRYBODY has been trying to sell me on those, I swear!! <3

    XOXO

  5. Ooh I'm so excited that you're looking to start dance classes again! There is nothing I love more than a good dance class – I wish they offered more near me as well!

    xx

  6. So you haven't had any of the random holes popping up in your LuLaRoe leggings? Some of the stories coming out have me a little worried. No one needs to see my booty with an accidental tear!
    Woo-hoo 20 lbs! That is fantastic!

  7. That's an awesome accomplishment – way to go! It sounds like you totally should get yourself some new fun leggings and a tunic to celebrate 🙂

  8. Congrats on 20 pounds, that is awesome!! And I'm right there with you… LLR leggings and Irmas are my FAVE! They are so transitional too 🙂 Stopping by from the linkup!

  9. Congratulations on the weight loss!!! That is so fantastic! That must be such a feeling of accomplishment. And I could see where the leggings would come in handy now. They'll get you through plenty of losses without having to buy a whole new wardrobe.

  10. Whoooo KEEP IT UP!! I've lost ten pounds since the new year myself so I'm feeling pretty good about that as well. And I've been loving seeing lifestyle posts from you – makes me kind of want to get into that more myself!

  11. Congrats on the weight loss! 20 pounds is amazing! I just followed you on Pinterest. I pin a lot but haven't really worked to grow my following on there either. Dancing is fun! I'm having fun taking zumba classes at the gym that I go to. When I was in college I was really into swing dancing. Maybe once the kids get older and I have more time I can try that again!

  12. Great job on your progress! :]! That's awesome! I love both your book + lifestyle posts, so I'm happy to hear you'll be doing a mix of em'! 😀

    I hope you find an awesome place to dance again!

  13. Twenty pounds! That is AWESOME! I'll be sure to check out your program post soon. I have been so busy lately that I haven't been able to get around to reading other's blogs. Spring Break is next week and I've got some catching up to do!
