The Start

Hello to everyone reading my first blog! I am so excited you took a moment to read my blogspot! In my future posts my goal is to share any helpful information I have about clean eating, motivation, exercising, self control and ambition! I hope the things I share with you are anything you can use in your daily life. I am not any kind of nutritionist or trainer, just an average girl who has come a long way in my dieting. I have currently lost 40 pounds and am still in the process of transforming my body, with clean eating, exercising, and self control! I would love to share with you some things that help me stay focused and keep me motivated. We all have that image of the perfect body, so whats stopping you from achieving it? Set a goal for yourself and lets get started!!

  • Getting Started:
Sometimes starting your diet can be the hardest thing, thats why I personally think the best way to start changing your eating would be substituting your favorite junk foods, sweets, sodas, and even mama's soul food to healthy alternatives that are just as satisfying! Write down a list of goals you wish to achieve and post your list somewhere that is visible to you every day. This way seeing your list often will be a motivating reminder of the switches in food you wish to make.
  • Exercising:
Lets face it, there are times we will make up every excuse in the book to avoid it. Yet it's funny how when we finish a workout we feel energized and happy! This is because when you exercise and get your heart rate up your body releases endorphins to your brain which makes us happy! We feel great and accomplished after working out and that alone is a great feeling. Oxygen Magazine quotes "45% are less likely of developing Alzheimers disease in people who do regular moderate to intense activity." So protect your brain by exercising consistently! Always warm up for five to ten minutes before starting a workout to get your blood moving and your muscles warm. Finish your work out just like you started it, with ambition and a goal.



     Achieving your health goals are possibilities, but its all up to you and how hard your willing to push yourself. Anything you set your mind to is most definitely reachable, never say you cant get there. I am much looking forward to continuing my posts! Make sure you watch for my next post which I'll include my list of top great trainers, some great recipes, more tips and facts, and workouts that hit the spot!
