 This is the completed look for my outfit. Welcome to this new vlog. I'm going to lunch with a friend, like one of my work friends. So I just decided to dress up a little bit just because why not? So I'm wearing my jeans. Obviously I'm gonna be wearing my white shoes, not my slippers, but I just have them on still. I'm just wearing this brown shirt. I don't know if Elsa is going to be hitting us like as hard as people think, but we are just waiting it out and I don't think it's gonna be that bad. Our hurricanes are never like too bad, but it's just been raining a lot here and that's why I decided to wear jeans. And it does get cooler after it rains. So this is like a light airy shirt, but still like long sleeves just in case, you know, like it's chilly and yes, as Floridians, it does get chilly after it rains. Some might agree with me, some might not. Also, I do want to go to Ulta to get a shaped tape concealer and some like Bird's Bees Chapstick because my lips do get like dry with the lip pencil on there. So I like kind of want some chapstick. I lost the one that my friend got me. It came in a bridesmaids little, will you be my bridesmaid thing? And I lost it and I loved it so much. So I don't know what happened to it. I rarely knock on wood, ever lose things. So I'm really mad at myself that I actually lost that because I could really use it now and I did use it a couple of times. So yeah. I guess I will vlog whatever I vlog next. It probably will be in Ulta maybe. I don't know, not quite sure yet. All right, so I'm with my friend Ashley and she got this really cute same Gria drink. And this is mine. The glasses are kind of dirty so I think I'm going to like ask for another one just because it's looking a little rough. She's had like dirty water cups like for a while and had to keep sending it back. So yeah, I don't know. We're going to have to figure this out. I'm going to do Ulta after a fun lunch with my friend and they are just going to look for some products. Hopefully they have them. Oh my gosh. They completely remodeled this entire front. Oh my gosh. Benefit has like such a big thing in the front. That's crazy. Completely changed in here. It looks nice though. Not going to lie. I really like it. Okay, so this is really nice that you helped me and I got the products I wanted. So I got the Shape Tape concealer. It's like just a little bit lighter than my shade. Just brighten everything up. And then I got this Morky setting spray. It's really good. I used one of my friends at a wedding and now I'm going to get some Burt's Bees like chapstick because I again lost the chapstick that I had and so. Okay, so I ended up getting these Burt's Bees original like lip balm with vitamin E and peppermint. I like peppermint flavors. So this probably be like kind of expensive and overly priced, but I think it'll be worth it in the end. All right, this is the next clip of the vlog here. We got Valerie. What's up? Tell them where we are. We are Disney Springs. Where else would we be? So we're going to eat dinner. Well, Valerie's going to eat. I already ate. I'm just here for like, you know, to walk around with her and stuff. Also too, a vlogger, blogger, mom blogger, whatever. Her name's like Breanna Kay and it would be cool if like got to meet her because she's here. I mean, I don't know. I just like meeting like YouTubers that like I've seen and stuff. So maybe I will. I don't even know if I would like post a picture because I am not like camera ready or whatever. Like, I don't know. I'm not really wearing that cube and outfit, but it's still be like kind of cool to meet her and stuff. So I was telling Valerie that because I don't know, just be kind of cool. I thought I would pull out the camera because y'all love seeing Valerie in the videos so. It is a beautiful evening at Disney Springs. Pretty crowded, but it is summer, right? So stop, Valerie's gonna get dinner. Yes. Valerie's enjoying her meal here. Good? Very good. She was really hungry. We made our way over to the boat house and look at this gorgeous view we have. Like let's just take it in for a moment. It is so pretty. We have the fake hot air balloon off in the air. I'm gonna order a drink. I think Valerie's gonna get like a Diet Coke or tea or something. So I got this red wine. It's so good. Also got a fun boomerang here. I love doing boomerangs like this. It's so cute. Let's let it focus here. The drink that I got was the, this Napa Valley one. It's really good. It's nice and light. It's not too heavy and just perfect for the evening. Hi guys. Welcome to this portion of the video. I am trying to make these videos a little bit more fun and exciting because I know just sitting, hearing me talk is like kind of boring for some of you maybe. But a lot of the times my talking videos get a lot of love. So couldn't be more happier. Thank you for letting me ramble to you guys. But I hope you guys enjoyed the little mini vlog clips at the beginning of the video. But this part of the video is going to be my week 71 update of my fitness journey. And I do want to continue these but I kind of want to filter in more like vlog footage like when I can, just to spice it up a little bit and add something to the videos. I do these mainly for myself which I'm really happy about. And I wouldn't want to change anything. Starting off like normal. I'm just going to tell you guys what I did this week and then we'll go on to the updates and then we'll go into the progress photos. This week has been pretty good even though I started off kind of slow but overall it has been really good and everything. So on Saturday we drove home from our trip and then Sunday obviously I was wanting to work out but I was like, no I just wanted to chill out and just recuperate from like that really long drive from Ohio. And then Monday I didn't do anything. Oh Saturday we were still there. I don't even know what I'm talking about. So Sunday we drove back and then Monday I recuperated. And then Tuesday I don't work out normally and I was just like, I had to work anyway. So I was like, no I'm not going to do anything. And then Wednesday I did the 20 minute intense workout and I love that one because it is pretty like intense but it's only for 20 minutes and it just targets all of your body so it's short and effective. And then I also did the killer app workout. It's one of her newest videos and it really does kill your abs. It's very crazy and is actually quite difficult. Like I even struggled with a lot of it. Then again, I haven't worked out in a little bit like a week but still that workout was like really challenging and everything. Thursday I did not do anything like normal. And then today, Friday I went on a run. So I chose to do the optimized run that my app gave me. So basically it just looks like that. I ran 18 minutes and then I walked for three minutes and then I ran for another three minutes. That in total led to 2.44 miles and I burned 250 calories, which is always nice. I love burning like over 200 calories just cause I don't know, I feel good after that. Anyway, like how I've been feeling and everything I've been feeling really great. I've been watching like my portions I guess but I'm trying not to like focus on that too much cause it's just too unhealthy and stuff. And I hate feeling like I'm totally restricted in everything that that's just not healthy for me. So basically I just kind of been watching what I eat but also I just feel like I'm finally like improving. I don't know if that's weird but like I feel a difference in my body and maybe I had that break and I needed that break so I could really just reflect on like how I'm feeling in my skin and my body but overall like I'm feeling it's so healthy and I feel like I'm seeing my progress. Some of the weeks like I just don't or didn't feel like that. I know that I did have progress but I just didn't like recall that in my brain. You know what I mean? That's pretty much the updates that I feel really good and I feel like I look really good and everything's going really, really well. Moving on to the progress photos. So on the left is Alex at the beginning of year two and then on the right is current Alex. I just feel like I'm like losing a lot of like my stomach bloat and like stubborn belly fat, which is really good cause that's always a difficult area. I feel like with a lot of people and then here is the side view and the side view you could probably tell more than the front view. So that's just what it looks like. Only worked out two days this week just because you know, it is what it is and I'm glad that I did just push myself to get up this morning cause let me tell you it was hard but it's amazing cause now the workout's over and I feel great and I have the entire day so like not worry about it. That's like everything in life. There's always a positive and a negative. So actually I'm quite tired now, which is kind of funny but I'm going to get on editing this. I hope you guys enjoyed this little Friday fun video. Give this video a thumbs up. Don't forget to subscribe and I'll see you guys in my next video. Bye.
