Getting Healthy !!

I’ve been on a health kick lately, I believe being healthy and feeling healthy makes every girl confident.

It’s true, not too long ago I started to feel sluggish, and lazy and always tired. So I decided to change something, well not just one thing I’ve changed a lot it seems like...

The two biggest things I’ve changed.

1: I pay attention to what I’m eating.     

By writing down what you eat, it makes you accountable for it. So if you feel like you want a snickers bar in the middle of the afternoon, but you know you’ll regret it once you write it down “Don’t eat it!!”  You’ll be surprised how just that alone will change you’re thinking. Instead of grabbing unhealthy snacks reach for fruits and veggies. 

2. Daily exercise.

Hit the gym daily, even if it’s just for a half hour.  You’ll be surprised how much better you’ll feel with only a half hour of cardio. Get a workout buddy. It pushes you to show up at the gym, and makes you push yourself during your workout.

I’m not going to tell you I know everything about getting healthy, cause frankly, I don’t. This is just what I’ve done.  I’m also not going to tell you what you can and can’t eat. By now you should know what’s good for you or bad for you. 

Yes, I know there are tons and tons of different studies, diets, books.. But the only one that will work for you is the one you find you can do. There are a lot of diet plans that hard unrealistic to follow.  I’ve found that just watching what I eat and making healthy decision has really helped me. 

Have I snuck in a candy bar once in a while? YES! But I don’t find myself sitting down with a handful of candy. I find myself grabbing an apple and slicing it and eating it with peanut butter more than I’m grabbing candy. 

In the next few posts I will be talking more about health, fitness, and how to achieve both in busy lifestyles. I like most of you would use being busy as an excuse to never work out. Now that I’m making it a point to get in at least 30minutes daily, I can’t even believe I used that as an excuse. Plus, it’s a nice 30 minute break from everything, little me time does everyone some good!
