This week has tried me more then ever....actually this whole month...I am in healthcare and well the state of our system is a disaster...I am trying to stay positive but man there are some ugly people in this world. My dad sent me a text the other day and it said 
" Success is never permanent, and failure is never final"
yep...and life is short...while stress creeps in every so often...it is soooo important to enjoy this life. This post was supposed to go up yesterday....#worldcancerday but my day didn't even involve getting out of my chair to get a drink of water..I ate one meal and missed my workout...I know I have control over it but I love my clients and I would do anything for them...so here it is a day late... but more importantly helping those who are fighting this ugly disease more and more people are affected...and they are getting closer to home...I recently found out a friend was just diagnosed...and while we don't talk...I have been following her blog...it can happen to any one of us...and it is so important to raise awareness and live each day to its fullest...I am reminded.... So I went home asked my puppies, my cats, and my hubby to give me kisses and was ready to start a new day...because I am blessed to have one.
You can check out my friends blog here...she is a strong and powerful women...make sure to send her some love!

ColorblindFIT: Get a good stretch





Outfit Details
Pullover: c/o Marshalls
Racer Back Top: c/o Athletics8
Capris: c/o Athletics8
Nike: Marshalls

Part of my whole "I WANT" list I wrote in the beginning of the year was focused on trying new things...and one of them was YOGA....See I danced for over 15 years....and dance and YOGA go hand in hand..the problem is I found weights and kickboxing and fell in love...which left little time for stretching... probably the only thing we did in ballet for 10 years! I have loved this whole YOGA and stretching situation I am addicted we even tried anti gravity yoga....took some pictures and will post them later this week. 

Anyway, moral of the story is...get a good stretch...before or after or whatever...people always have their opinion but I look at it like this...one of the days you work out should be focused on stretching out your muscles...we are so consumed with burning calories and pumping iron we forget that our muscles need to be stretched and loose to grow....so give it a rest...and GET A GOOD STRETCH ON! 

A litte on my workout swag. These pants were sent to me by the Marena group...and I have NEVER had workout clothes like this...it's almost like I could slip on a slinky black dress over it and they work like spanx! haha I mean if you ever had an insecurity about running and jiggling everywhere...GET THESE PANTS....I promise your booty won't move and you will want to jump up and down like a little kid...more on this brand to come...but I have been wearing them now for a little over a month and I am here to say that they are a staple in my workout wardrobe...
