It was another 80 degree day! I woke up early to do a workout and then followed it up with some freaking delicious hard boiled eggs, frozen figs, and a Van’s whole grain waffle! And YES! That is syrup and butter.
Oh! And my Garmin came this morning! I’m excited because now I don’t have to carry my chunky phone around to track my miles anymore! I have a rest day today so I’ll use it tomorrow!
Yesterday was beautiful so I went to the driving range! I’m so excited to get my golf on again this summer! I just got a new membership to a coarse close to me.
I have the tendency to finish hitting my balls before everyone.
After golfing, I headed home to change and get ready for Nick’s little brother, Dom’s, baseball game. It was his birthday yesterday and I stopped to get his gift too. I bought him a little baseball themed gift bag that had big league chew, sunflower seeds, and a Dick’s Sporting Good gift card.
I picked up the card at Walgreens and as I was walking out I grabbed the coconut water with pineapple! It was so good!
I was taking photos for Dom’s team. I love doing photos wherever I go! They ended up winning after coming back in the last inning.
They played their game in York and so Nick and I decided to get something to eat afterwards.
We stopped at a little Italian Garden and I ordered the chicken salad. It wasn’t too bad for a $6.00 salad.
Today it’s going to be really cold, so it’s a good day for indoor yoga followed by bundling up and going for a walk!

I love my Garmin. My boyfriend bought me it last September. I am working on 20 races this year and it’s so great for training and motivation. I even love the step tracker for everyday use. It reminds me to stay active and move around.
Linda @ The Fitty says
Do you typically like to do your workouts in the morning, afternoon, or evenings, Tara?
Taralynn McNitt says
Around mid morning!
Liv @ Healthy Liv says
I love those pink shorts you’re wearing– so cute! And frozen figs sound delicious.
Kristin C says
Really? Is it cold in Charlotte today? Usually we get our cold about a day before you guys.
I have only tried to play golf once and I was TERRIBLE! I’m usually pretty athletic, but GOSH IS WAS BAD!
Aubrey says
Morning runs are the best! I did 8 miles today (followed by a quest bar!)
Laura Hager says
That waffle looks so good. And that mile tracker is awesome!
Sarah says
I resisted getting a garmin but it was so worth it. I wish I would have bought one sooner!

I want to try golfing, it looks like so much fun!
The coconut water looks delicious!
Ashley @ AllAshleyMarie says
Looks like some delicious post-workout food! And Taralynn, when you have your rest days does it usually consists of things like yoga and going on walks? I guess for most people, you wouldn’t do that kind of exercise on a rest day?
Lauren says
Your left arm looks awfully distorted and PHOTOSHOPPED in your golf pic…those pink shorts were a liiiittle tighter a couple weeks ago in DR, weren’t they
Taralynn McNitt says
Maybe it’s your eyes that are awfully distorted because that photo is not photoshopped. Get glasses or zoom into the photo if you can’t see it correctly.
Krystal says
Don’t you think you took your weight loss too far? Losing that much weight in three weeks is unsafe. You should go back to rehab…
Caitlin says
Wow you girls sure are little bitches! Grow up and do something useful with your lives. Taralynn you look great and are an inspiration to so many people!
Alina says
I photoshop for a living, and one of the things that I get from my clients is that their photos look photoshopped even though I didn’t retouch the part they claim to be “photoshopped”.
Cameras sometimes make photos look as if they are photoshopped even if they aren’t and to me, they don’t look airbrushed.
Carefeul before you claim something to be photoshopped. A lot of times it isn’t.
an says
I have zoomed in over and over and I can’t find one thing that looks photoshopped. You girls need to get off Taralynn’s back. You are the poster faces of online bullying. If Taralynn wasn’t as strong headed as she is, this could lead to suicide. Is that what you are trying to do?
heather says
That’s a pretty dramatic jump from photo editting accusations to predicting suicide attempts. Is that what YOU are trying to do…?
Some of your readers are really troubled, Tara.
Shannon says
What type of Garmin did you get? I’m trying to get a new heart rate monitor for working out. I love your blog and thanks for your help! 🙂
Sarah says
I was going to ask the same thing! Would love to hear a good recommendation, as I am currently in the market for one! 🙂

This is the garmin forerunner 10! I LOOOOVVVEEE mine!
Cassie says
Frozen figs?!?!?! Lucky girl!!!
Ashton Jury says
Have you ever considered or tried doing Whole 30? (If you have maybe I missed it) I was just wondering your thoughts on it. Also I tried the pineapple coconut water and it was delicious! Great recommendation!
Taralynn McNitt says
I’ve never even heard of it! Shall I look into it!?
Ashton Jury says
Definitely! Its kind of like paleo and it’s like a 30 day cleanse i am starting in April with a friend of mine and have been finding a lot of great ideas via Pinterest. I’m bummed that it is no dairy (because i love cheese) but i am hoping it will help kick me into gear to get ready for summer. We are already drinking a gallon of water a day, whoever fails first has to buy the other a $50 F21 gift card!
Hayli says
Love your blog! Always look forward to reading your posts. My list of “to visit” places in Charlotte has grown because of you!
Taralynn McNitt says
Awww thank you! Charlotte is an amazing place!
Jayna says
Hey Tara!
I’ve been following your blog for 2 years now and look forward to reading your posts! 🙂
Anyways.. I’ve been looking for something to track my calorie burn during a workout and I remember in the past you used a polar watch. Any recommendations? Or could you review the garmin and polar watch? I’ve been doing research and tried the FitBit and Jawbone Up24 and didn’t care for either one because I felt they weren’t accurate.
Thanks ,
Jayna
