My Lazy Day ♡

Hello loves!

I wanted to make a post about my lazy days! I will be telling you what I like to do on these rare days. Enjoy!

Definition of "Lazy Day" : You can use lazy to describe an activity or event in which you are very relaxed and which you do or take part in without making much effort.  

   

• Messy Bun ♡

I usually put my hair up and out of my face. Usually a messy bun to do. It really takes no effort and every bun is unique! So on your next lazy day try a messy bun and make sure it is messy and comfy!

• Pajamas ♡

You know it! Pajamas are super comfy, am I right? I usually prefer my Victoria Secret sweat pants and a big shirt! Anything that is comfortable is considered pajamas to me! :)

• Ice cream & Internet ♡

On lazy days I can eat my favorite ice cream with no guilt and spend my time checking my social media! Also I like to get on Netflix and watch my favorite movies and shows. Some of my favorites are Orange is the new black, American Horror Story, Secret life of american teenager and I love to re-watch Safe Haven ! :)

 

• Sleep ♡

The perfect day to sleep! Be lazy and just close your eyes. Endless naps await!

That is what I usually do on my lazy days, what does your lazy day consist of? Let me know in the comments below!

Taking on a healthy lifestyle !

Hello loves,


  
   So my senior year is coming up and that means senior pictures. It is currently May and I am required to take my senior pictures during the summer. I want to shed pounds so that I could look great for my photos. This calls for a lifestyle change! I want to create a healthy lifestyle for myself. I don't know about you, but I love going on pinterest, tumblr and weheartit and looking up fitness and health pictures. Not only to inspire me but to give me an idea about this lifestyle. I think it is so fun to make healthy meals and snacks and after eating what you made you don't feel stuffed and gross. Lately I have been watching Ingrid, also known as missglamorazzi via youtube, and she inspires me to embrace health and beauty. Ingrid's #HungryHappyHealthy series is so helpful and of course yummy! So make sure to go subscribe to her!
   Also I want to be apart of fun healthy activities. Currently I am taking classes at jazzercise and it is enjoyable because you simply dance and shed pounds. This morning I decided why not try another activity such as yoga! So I watched a video on doyouyoga.com and I felt great afterwards. Also if you try yoga I would recommend getting outdoors and trying it. Spending time with nature and getting fresh air is the best feeling! During the summer I plan to do more activities to help me loose weight with friends. I want all my friends to live a healthy lifestyle !
   I am thinking about making a blog series on here! I would keep you updated on my journey and share fun workouts, healthy hauls and recipes. Let me know if you would be interested in the comments below! Anyways I hope you have a positive filled day and I will talk to you on my next post!
 
  Love,

The journey to a new me!

Hello everyone!

I have not made a post since.. I don't know when! To be honest I just drifted away from blogging. You should have seen my reaction to the last post on my blog that I read. I was laughing because I am still on a weight loss journey. I laugh even though it's sad because I am still at the beginning and I have not really lost any weight. Hopefully one of you guys can relate but, one day I am determine to loose weight and I want to go on a hike and accomplish many things and then, the following day I am not motivated at all and I just reach for the chips. If I could stay motivated and determine just like some of those days, my life would be amazing! Well when I was in one of those moods of motivation I went into my mom's book collection and picked out a book called "The Life You Want" by Bob Greene. While I was in the mood the book helped me understand my life and my thoughts etc. This book really made me want to loose weight. But, then the next day I stopped reading and now I am typing this after I have ate so much food. It's sad and I feel so sick and unaccomplished with my life. I really really really want to loose weight because I feel like my weight gain and my choice of food makes me depressed. I simply want to be happy. It's my on going battle. Anyways, enough with the emotions! I want to find some healthy blogs or inspiring blogs so if any of you guys know of any blogs of those topics please leave a comment below ! I will be posting a DIY post soon... I am so happy to be back and excited to start my routine of posting again !

Love Yourself and Forget Socitey !

Hey guys,

I wanted to talk to everyone about loving yourself and your body. What made me write this post was from experience with society while hanging out with my friends. I have been overweight most of my life. I was always the bigger kid. Growing up, I would get called "Fat Ass" and or "Big Girl". I thought that it would stop later on in my life but, it has not. Going to the mall with friends, guys would say "We are trying to get with your skinny friends not you fat ass." And recently for the first time I herd "Your friends with skinny people which makes you look fatter and uglier." I am not going to lie, it all hurts. Most people ask why I don't have confidence and it is because, if you get called all these names and get told this stuff mostly everyday your confidence will lower.

Moving on to my friends experience with society is dealing with her chest. My friend is a beautiful, healthy and a talented girl. She does not have a big chest. She posted a gorgeous photo of her on Facebook and her friends were calling her perfect etc. Then, a random guy commented "I don't know why all these people are lying to you. You are not perfect. You need to get a boob job." As I watched my friend read the comment she broke into tears from hurt. Basically I realized. We are never going to be what society wants. Society rules are messed up and love yourself because, society won't matter when love yourself just the way you are.
