1st ever Haul!!

Whats  up F.L.Y Gals and Guys!! This is my first ever Clothing Haul!!! Its not an extravagant haul but it's just a few things I picked up. It was Tax free weekend in Tennessee so I decided to partake in this massive event. I  by passed the mall because I knew it would be beyond packed.

I also bought a purse and belt but didn't get the picture. Anyway I have been Sleeping on Cato's!! I use to hate going to Cato's with my mom when I was younger but I was glad I went this time. The tops are just regular casual shirts. I love these dresses I found. I can do alot with these dresses..I cant wait. Now on to the shoes! The heels are more casual and something I wouldn't usually buy but I got a few compliments on them. I love the flats I purchased especially the purple suede! I love love the purple ones. OOOOhhhh I cant wait to pair these with a funky outfit.
Until Next Time!

Hi Guys! Right now I am trying to come up with more post ideas. Since I do not have a high tech camera to upload with its harder for me to upload pictures and videos. I want to do a clothing haul on some items I just purchased but If I can't get that together then its back to the drawing board for me. Most of the blogs I follow are fashion blogs. The majority of them do OOTD, make up and hair tutorials and things of that nature. Don't get me wrong I love fashion(especially Plus Size) make up and hair but I'm not an expert or guru in that area so my post won't always consist of that. I really want my blog to be great  so I am going to reevaluate my ideas and come back with something bigger and better!
OK I told you all about a positive challenge I was going to do and I did it last week but I'm not sure if I will keep posting it. This is what I did.

Day 1: Call and Check on someone.
I decided to check on my cousin Destiny and to find out her mom was sick so she was happy I contacted her to just check on her.

Day 2: Txt a short txt to the first 5 people in your phone.
I did that and 3 people responded and I had a good convo with 2 of them

Day 3: Write down 5 things that made you happy throughout the day.
1.Picked up my nieces from school on the first day
2. Went grocery shopping for healthy food
3.Confirmed my apartment rental!!!
4. Hilarious conversation with my mom
5. Made a chicken fajita that was very yummy

Day 4: Read a daily proverb for the day
I read 1 Peter 2:24

Day 5: Smile while talking to people. ( Even while txting)
The only problem I had with this is remembering to do it. But I did lol!

This challenge made my week better!

Lets be POSITIVE!

Hi guys! I haven't posted in a week or so because I'm trying to get everything together so that I can move and start graduated school! I'm very excited and a little bit nervous to be on my on (in a way). I pray that everything comes together and work out in my favor.
OK so I went over to High Heels & Good Meals and she was talking about a Positive challenge another blogger was  trying. Random Bites of a Sweet Life has been doing a daily challenge of doing positive things for herself or others since July and will continue to do it until the end of the year. She picks random things out of a hat each day and does them. I think this is something I want to try. I know I'm starting late but I will be starting on Monday August 6 and at the end of the week I will let you all know what I had to do and exactly what I did! If you all want to join well com' on! I think this will make each day better!

Hi y'all

This summer has been extremely hot especially with this heat wave going on. What do you do to your hair when it's hot? Well braids are definitely in this summer! Usually during the summer the typical braids are twist dreads, micros, and tree braids. This summer the braid styles are mainly goddess braids. center braid bun, and the fish tail braids. There are so many different ways to style these great braids. Every where I look someone is rocking a certain style of braids.  This summer I too have rocked these different styles and have loved it. Later I will post my version of the center braid bun.
Please stay cool in this heat!

What hair styles are you rocking this summer?

Weight Loss!!

Hi Guys,
Today July 10, 2012 I started my weight loss journey. Ive tried many of times to loose weight but this time I came to the conclusion that I must do it.I don't want to be skinny but I want to be healthy. I will not be giving up (totally) on my favorite foods but I will be cutting back and watching my portions. Here are some foods that I will be limiting or giving up:
Drinks and juices with sugar
White bread
Red Meat
Fried food
Junk Food
Sweets (my ultimate favorite)

I will be replacing those items with:
Fruits
Vegetables
Whole Wheat
Baked foods
Healthy snacks

I will be exercising 1 hour and 30 minutes everyday  except Sunday's.If you are on your quest for weight loss please don't give up. I know this journey will be rough but with self control and prayer I will be able to do it.

Stay F.L.Y
