Shopping Spreeee!

Well, not a full on shopping spree, but I had a mini and much deserved one! See my clothes I bought on boxing day are all already too big. I don't want to buy too much now since I'm still losing weight, but I want to feel cute. I only had time to go into one store before my hair appointment so I headed into Dynamite since they usually have cute stuff. I ended up wanted everything I tried on! I narrowed it down though, as hard as that was.... I ended up with a t-shirt (size medium!) and 3 longer shirts.... the kind you wear leggings with. They look like dresses but too short? Anyways, they're super cute! One is a plaid one with pockets and a zipper up the front, one is black with a nice neckline and a cinched waist, and the third is grey with a flower and cute buttons to the side of the neckline. I'm quite pleased with everything :-) Next on my list? Workout shorts and new bras.... Next time I have some extra money, that's what I shall do! Then I got my haircut. I got a few inches taken off and got it thinned out a bit. It feels so light and bouncy! I love it. After the workout I met up with Brian. We had subway for dinner and then headed to the Martial Arts place for some workouts. My kickboxing was first so I did that and then showered / got ready while he was doing jiu jitsu. After that I headed to Val's for girls night. It was fun! We had some tea, caught up a bit and watched Definitely, Maybe. My sister called me with some exciting news.. I won't post it on here but those of you who know her, will know what I'm talking about. I'm quite happy for her :-)

Today has been pretty lazy. I slept in, watched some tv, played some Super Mario, Brian and I made some muffins... and now I'm just relaxing some more. The weekdays leave me in kind of a sleepy daze all weekend.... ah well, rest up if I need to I say! Tomorrow I'm heading to Alymer with Brian and his mom for his grandmother's birthday lunch. That should be fun!

On another note - I need to reanalyze my calorie intake because I think with the workouts I've been doing, I've been gaining some muscle.... lately I've been soooo hungry! I've gone to bed starving almost every night for the past couple of weeks and I'm always starving between breakfast and lunch now (even if I have a snack in between). So I need to start eating bigger amounts than you'd think someone trying to lose weight should. But from what I've learned in the past, if I go to sleep hungry, I don't lose weight. So this morning I couldn't sleep past 8am because my stomach was so empty. I went downstairs, got some toast with peanut butter, a cup of milk and a kiwi and had that and then went back to sleep. I know it sounds awesome to be able to eat so much and still probably lose weight, but it also means waking up earlier to eat bigger breakfasts during the week too :P Oh well, we'll play it by ear.
