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.

Workout Dilemma

Hey guys, Today's blog is all about the hard truth we're all trying to manage. Some people love working out, some hate it. Some are naturally healthy eaters, others not so much. I'm somewhere in the blurred lines. I love food, but I can fight cravings, most of the time. I don't mind working out, once I'm in the gym, mindset and ready to go, but getting there is the issue. I'm no gym buff, but I like to do some 30 day challenges; basics, nothing fancy Nancy over here. I usually find the challenges I want to follow on Pinterest because they have so many great options. I just enjoy letting out some steam, especially when I'm stressed or mad. I really wish I could say I loved the gym, I went 3-4 times a week and I know exactly how to eat right. Nope, your girl loves her Oreo's, carbs and damn gimme some sugar. If I know I'll be eating really unhealthy soon, for example a family event or vacation, I'll be more conscious of what I'm eating leadi...
