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)
Congrats on the weight loss!! That is awesome. I also love a mix of things on a blog so I love that you are branching out more.
That's great about the weight loss! I hope that you have a great week!
Congrats on the weight loss! I've been doing the same! 20 down!
Congrats on the weight loss! I have heard such great things about LulaRoe leggings, but haven't heard of Irma Tunics.
Yay for weight loss! That's awesome! I am a LulaRoe addict myself and I agree with the weight loss thing the clothes really do accommodate many different sizes without having to buy new.
I love this post. 🙂
Congratulations on losing weight! You're an inspiration.
Way to go on the weight loss! That is amazing!! I'm so with you on the Lularoe leggings. I just got my first pair and I never want to take them off!
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!
Yay on the weight loss!! That is awesome! I LOVE Lularoe so much, one of my friends from high school sells it which is both awesome and dangerous, lol.

So proud of you! Keep it up, Lauren.
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!
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…
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
Keep it up! I don't celebrate Easter but I'm always excited about all the chocolate I can buy the next day 🙂 My personal favourite is Cadbury's mini eggs.
That is awesome about your weight loss goals!! Fingers crossed for the weigh in, it sounds like you have been working so hard at it!
Yayyy for accomplishing your goals! I think there's just something about the springtime that makes us want to get things done!!!
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
I keep hearing awesome things about LulaRoe, but I still haven't tried their leggings!
Oh my gosh, congrats on the weight loss, that is amazing! And LLR leggings are FANTASTIC aren't they!?
Congrats on your continued weight loss! Keep up the good work! ~Aleen
Congrats on the weight loss! That is wonderful. And I love what you're doing with your blog so keep up the great work 🙂
Congratulations on your weight loss. Loving 20 pounds is amazing! I love the mix of things you've been doing on this blog. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Congrats on the weight loss! That needs to become one of my goals. But first, a career change.
Congrats on the weight loss! I like when more lifestyle things are included!
I'm a newer follower to your blog but I look forward to the variety of posts! LLR is great and so is Usborne Books!
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!
congratulations on your weight loss journey!!!! i need to find more about that leggings everyone talks about.
Way to go on the weight loss and blog direction!! That's awesome!!
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 🙂
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!
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.
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!
Congrats on the weight loss of course but also for embracing new things. Your enthusiasm is infectious 🙂
For What It's Worth
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!
Congrats on the weight loss! I'm sure that's been no easy feat!
Congrats on the weight loss! And good luck with blogging, I'm excited to see more lifestyle posts!
Congratulations on your weight loss success. That's wonderful! LLR leggings are so comfy!! 🙂 XO – Alexandra

That's wonderful! I hope the weigh in went well 😀
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!
Congrats. Now send some of that positivity and motivation my way. I need a partner to keep me on track.
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!
Yay for lifestyle posts!!!
