My Weight Journey

-
Alright everyone time to get real!

I've talked in the past about my lacking motivation for working out. Well here we go, I am MOTIVATED! My summer vacation is booked and I did gain quite a bit of weight in the last year. Not that it is about the numbers but there are certain areas, such as my thighs and tummy, that I really want firmer, not to mention I want to feel confident and proud on the beach!

I also want to be healthier and make sure to balaynce other aspects like stress, food and sleep. So I'm really aiming for a way healthier lifestyle in general. Jumping into this I follow a lot of workout accounts on Pinterest and Instagram that put up really easy to follow workouts and food tips so my plan is to follow those as much as possible and make smart food choices. I think that a huge factor will be the fact that my schedule during school was hectic and always changing so consistency was not easy to maintain. Now that I’m settling  into a new and consistent routine I hope that helps push me to be more serious about working out.

The dream would be to tone up my body, eat healthier, feel healthier ad more energetic and honestly just feel better overall. I get sick pretty often so I'm hoping to get that lowered in the process. I am also planning on documenting quite a bit of this to keep push myself.

The plan
Here's my plan! I want to workout 3-5 times a week. I know this sounds like a lot but I'll be happy even if it's a shorter workout or an hour on the treadmill. Anything is better than no workout at all!

Ideally, I would workout during the week, for example in the evening after work, and keep my weekends as a break time. That way my weekends can truly be calming and a refresh, while the week is my hustle and bustle time.

I am focusing on my abs, thighs and bum areas but I also want to tone up my arms, legs, etc. overall. So I plan to do workouts which focus on my target areas but adding in different exercises for total body too!

I'll keep my gems posted with how my workouts are going, follow my Twitter and Instagram for more information!

New Year Update!

 Hi Gems,  Wow it has been a while. The last time I wrote and published on here was in October which honestly feels like a lifetime. As the holidays came and went, we rang in the new year and I find myself thinking a lot about not only lessons learned this year but the direction I want to aim for when going into 2024.  As you may know if you follow my other platforms, I am getting married this year which feels surreal! It's been so far away for so long and here we are counting down less then a year! I also am so proud of Tia things on Instagram , TikTok and Youtube because I really have pushed myself to create more all while having fun! With all of this in mind, here are some of my goals going into 2024: 1. Have a life outside of wedding planning  Wedding planning has genuinely been so fun and even in the stress-inducing times, I would not change anything for the world. I am so proud of how much we have done, saved, planned, etc. as we put together our perfect day....

Furniture shopping

 Hey gems,  I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine as summer is approaching! We have been busy trying to pick out all the furniture for the new place. It has been quite a wild journey to get here so I thought I would take some time to review everything that has been going on! Firstly, my favourite store by far is Structube , it is my favourite place and has such a great variety of items but way less overwhelming then a big store like Ikea.  The first thing we picked is our dining table and chairs. The chairs are warm brown leather and the table has a fake live edge that I LOVE! This was the easiest item to choose by far! This is all in a warm theme and tones that will go well with the dark floors and cabinets. We also have been very budget conscious in the whole process and the table was a great price for a larger size so this was a no-brainer.  The next main items I picked out are decor because I had some very specific ideas like a gallery wall and big mirrors! We...

She's a wife!

Hi gems, after soooo much time away from the blog I am back with a life update! I have now been married for a month and had the most incredible honeymoon! We are just getting back home and resetting into a routine. The switch back to reality isn't an easy one but we are still on cloud nine from the events of the summer so that certainly helps! So with that said I think we are well overdo on a life update! Your girl is welcoming fall after a month in Europe and an incredible summer! Not only did my bestfriends get married in the most magical day, but we got to have a summer filled with so many celebrations. Summer 2024 will go down in the history books for sure as a summer of love. I also had another major life change earlier in the summer, I changed job! After five years at an agency, with the people I loved and who taught me so much. I got an opportunity at a company that is HUGE and rated a top company to work for. The job itself and benefits made it a deal I could not turn down....
