New Year, New You? {Happy New Year}

Pinned Image


Happy {almost} New Year, loves!

What are you hoping this New Year brings?
any New Years resolutions?

I don't really like to make New Years resolutions.
I feel like often people are so gung-ho about them for the first few weeks (like working out at the gym), and then a month passes, and suddenly they don't care to continue with it. It's not that I don't think people have good intentions or that this happens all the time..I just think trying to make a lifestyle change is more successful than creating a New Years resolution.

This year I'm hoping to:
-join Vista church and go regularly (it's a different church than where we got married and I think it's a perfect fit for us)
-continue with the vegetarian lifestyle and {try} to cut out cheese 1 or 2 days a week
-get this booty back in shape after months of being off {I've been able to jog the past few days and let me tell you...homegirl is out.of.shape}
-double what I'm saving every month
-run a half marathon
-spend less on clothes (it's a good thought, right?)
-travel to a different country
-keep good communication in our marriage and be a loving wife!


With the holidays, my body is pretty much screaming at me to give it a major detox. I make a lot of veggie juices in my juicer at home, but I decided to start this New Year off a little differently...

After researching a couple different options, this weekend I'm starting
 Advocare's Herbal Cleanse.

It's a 10 day system that helps rid the body of toxins and waste.
I haven't tried it before, but I've heard great things about it.
When my 10 days is up, I plan on blogging about the results in case some of you are interested in doing it.


So, my plans for this holiday weekend?

Lots of R&R
girl time for my girlfriend's birthday tonight
 spending New Years Eve with Jess (Billy, too..obviously ;))
play with my new favorite toy
 (if you follow KC&CO on facebook then you already know)



(not sure why I left ya in suspense yesterday..I can't keep secrets for long!)

and count down the days until...

Naples, Florida

Last night we booked a trip for mid Febuary (Valentines Day!)
and I'm so excited.

besides, I may have a visitor or 2 when there.
....more on that one later ;)


Have a {safe} and happy New Year, everyone!

  9. I too am going to do a cleanse starting January 1st! However, I do the 7 Day Slim Down from Tone It up! You should check it out. Last time I did it I lost 10 pounds and over 7 inches off my waist in just 7 days! It's amazing - just cuts out carbs and sugar for 7 days. Amazing!

    Anyways, love your goals for 2012!!

  17. the advocare cleanse is awesome!! and of course you know why I love you for being a vegetarian, I am going to DO IT this year! And going sans cheese for a few days a week is a good goal, once I'm not sure I could ever do! Happy almost 2012!

  19. I've done the Advocare cleanse before! I was surprised at how many pills you have to take. The fiber mix is pretty gross but if you just gulp it down, it won't be a problem. I think my cleanse was the longer one though? Anyways, good luck! Let us know your results.

  20. I'm anxious to hear how the cleanse goes! I've tried a few before but probably not any that I would recommend. And I'm drooling over your new camera!!
