Confessions

Good Morning!!! I was just sitting here in the salon thinking about a few things... It has been a struggle for me these past few months with finishing up with school (still interning) and starting my next level of fitness journey and other personal things that have been going on in my life...  I must admit that after doing the many detoxes and fasting...it has taken a toll on my body... It has actually been doing the opposite versus the good that it should be doing for my body.. I can't seem to get my well balanced meal plan in order... Yes I'm still working out but my weight has not decreased or increased... And it becomes frustrating...Even though I'm more concerned with my overall health... Losing these 20lbs has been a bomber for me right now... I'm slowly working on getting my clean eating back in order not that I have been off but my body has been craving for a lot of carbs and I have been giving into those cravings lately... But on Monday, May 12th, 2014 I will be cutting all dairy out of my diet... As much as I love my yogurt we just don't belong together because I stay bloated and I can really see the change in my body when I eat it versus when I don't and when I don't I feel so light and my stomach isn't bloated.....so it's time for us to part ways... Lol

I am a vegeterian now but I guess with my cutting dairy I will become a vegan... Hmmmm, This is going to be very challenging for me and I'm lookin for the change for the better in my body... I will keep you all posted, until next time.. Live, Love, Laugh... Smoochies...

Flirty Girls 10 Reasons To Work Out in The Mornings

10 Reasons to Workout in the Morning     It can be challenging to make the time to exercise. But exercising in the morning is a wonderful way to create a positive routine and provides many added benefits beyond just keeping you fit.   1. Burn FAT instead of calories Get up, get a glass of water, and workout. No breakfast, no small bite beforehand. Do not take in a single calorie until you do cardio first. The reasoning behind this is when you exercise without eating, your body needs to tap into something for energy. Your body's first source of energy is glycogen but since this was depleted overnight your body must burn unwanted FAT to get you through your workout.   2. Better long-term results Over 90% of people who exercise *consistently*, exercise in the morning. Our bodies love routine. If you force yourself to get up when your alarm goes off, your body will thank you and pay you back.   Extra perk: People who exercise regularly earn 9% more income than people who don't.   3

Gotta Get Some Shut Eye

Have you ever had a day where it just feels like 24 hours isn't enough?. By the time you realize it, it's 1 o'clock in the morning and you have to get back up in 4 hours. Well, that was my day yesterday and it showed in my personal training session today. My trainer actually could tell in my workout that I didn't get any sleep and man did I feel it. I had no energy and I felt sluggish but I did the best that I could, which wasn't good enough. I went out after work to eat with friends and to see the movie "The Best Man Holiday" , which by the way is a must see for those who have not seen it yet. I loved it!!!... By the time I made it home and got myself together for bed, it was about 1:30a and I was back up @5am trying to get to my training session @ 6:30am and still ended up getting there 15 minutes late. An average adult needs between 7-9 hours of sleep every night, even though some of us can function off of 4-6 hours of sleep, eventually it will catch
