Hope & Purpose

To my followers, I hope you have enjoyed learning more about fitness from a southern woman’s perspective. I have accomplished many things through my own fitness journey. First, I gained confidence and learned what self love truly means. Secondly, I lost 15 pounds. It’s hard to imagine myself a bigger size than I am now, but three months ago my round face and hips certainly showed it. Lastly, I am so glad to reach out to other women like myself who need to act beautiful because they are beautiful.

Ladies, we aren’t exercising and eating right for anyone except ourselves. When you love yourself, others will love you, too. The only way for any person to appreciate and respect you, is if you appreciate and respect yourself. Motivation and dedication is all it takes.

I hope I have impacted you as much as this journey has impacted me. Please stay tuned for my next blog which will be coming soon.

Until next time,

1,000 calorie burn

It’s the busy time of the year where there is very little time to make it to the gym, so at 10 p.m. one night I decided to try this workout that burns 1,000 calories in my living room.  According to my fit bit, it actually burns 1,127 calories.

• 100 jumping jacks
• 100 crunches
• 100 squats
• 25 push ups

Rest for one minute than repeat it again.

This workout focuses on your core, your legs and bottom, your shoulders, and also your back and arms. This may seem simple, but you have to motivate yourself to get off the couch and actually exercise. Love yourself. You deserve greatness. Do not settle for less than your worth.
