Athletic Lady Footlocker HAUL!

Hey everyone! I back with another blog post and I am so happy to share with you that I am sticking to one of my New Years resolutions of getting more in shape! So, as a way of encouraging me to get back into the gym I asked Santa (AKA my mom) to gift me a gift card to Lady Footlocker, so that I could get some cute workout apparel! I am the type of person that wants to feel confident all the time and with clothes and outfits I create they instantly make me feel more confident about myself. So, while I am sweating my life away at the gym I don't want to look like a complete bum! I've always wanted a complete head-to-toe Nike look. Nike is a great athletic brand and I think that the fabrics they use are really form fitting and are really helpful when getting in shape. With that being said, Nike is the brand that I chose to get all my clothes from. I wanted to keep my color scheme simple and stick to colors that I knew no matter how hard I sweat my clothes don't show and I steal can walk out of the gym looking fierce as ever!

Just to give a little context to why I want to loose weight I have always been an athletic in middle school and high school, not because I liked sports, but because I Liked to eat! A LOT and the only way to combat my eating habit was constantly be physically active. I also wanted to be popular and accepted at school and the "cool" and "popular" people were involved in sports and I just wanted to fit in, so I stayed in sports. Everyone on my team was a size 6 or smaller and then theres me, a size 14 strong. I wasn't conditioned at all and it was always really hard for me to keep up with the "skinny" girls.

I don't know if you peep my problem here, but I will go ahead and tell you why my weight loss journey is such a prolonged thing in my life. I never ever thought about loosing weight for myself. I always wanted to loose weight for others. This time around i am purely doing this weight lose journey because I want to like what I see in the mirror and I want to appreciate every step of the way. I also do not have the unnecessary pressure of those around me and I am not in a rush to please anyone, but myself. And with this mind alone I know I can loose the weight and this time keep it off! I am very excited about this, and brining you guys along with me. I have process pictures that I started taking December 31,2016 and will be updating every two weeks!

In this haul I will showing you all the things that have purchased from the Lady Footlocker website! I have three categories Sports bras, Bottoms, and Shoes.

Sports bras

I bought three sports bras one Nike Pro Swoosh bra in size medium and two Nike Core sports bras. I wanted to get all three Nike Core, but at the time they did not have all black that I wanted to I got Medium. Compared to the Core bra it is kind of tight and hard to get out of, but it gets the job done all the same. Like I said before that I bought all of me gear in a color scheme that was sweat proof. So, my Nike Pro Swoosh bra is black with a white check in the center and my two Nike Core bras are Navy/White and Grey/White. With the Nike Core bras I got both of them in a Large and they are very comfortable. I know that I didn't get a lot of sports bras, but this the most I have ever own in my entire life. Before these three I used to rock neon yellow Nike sports bra non-stop. It saw me through so good time, but I desperately needed an upgrade.

Bottoms

The reason why I have this category labeled as bottoms instead of shorts, leggings and capris is because A. I want to keep this post short as I can and B. I bought all three and I can only say so much about each item separately. I decided to buy all three because I was purely thinking practically about each stages of the weather. So, when its cold outside I can wear my leggings or capris, and when spring an summer hits I can alternate my shorts and capris. I can also wear my leggings. I think that I can alternate all three bottoms seamlessly anytime of the year.

To keep things simple I got all three bottoms in black, but surprisingly my black leggings have notorious phrase "Just do it" on the side that was kinda a set back because I thought I was ordering completely simple pieces, but I guess not. I know that they have all black leggings without words. I will just have to get them next time!

Shoes

I have saved the best for last! Shoes are one of my favorite things! So, as you might of guessed it I got all black shoes as well. For some strange reason I invision myself working out as a ninja on a mission! I decided to get the Roshe Ones in a size 8.5 and I love them so much! They are so comfortable and have great support. It is not everyday that I wear a pair of shoes with good support! My sister and my mom highly recommended these shoes, because they have them as well and they wear them to the gym as well. Before purchasing them I used to wear my mom's pair (we are closer in size than my sister) all the time and she was starting to get tired of my borrowing her shoes, so I was bound to get my own pair.

I will also be posting a Youtube Video talking about my favorites as well! As always, thank you so much for reading! Until Next Time!

I would Also like to document my progress with monthly pictures so here is a picture of what I looked like at the start of January. I hope that I can continue to loose weight and be a size that I am happy with.
