Fit Tip Tuesday.

Stop negative thinking, no matter how hard it is. Thinking negative has been proven to slow down your metabolism, making it harder to lose weight. Stay positive and you will hit your goal faster.

Let Go.

Growing up I have always been sheltered. My parent's raised my brother & I very well, at least I think so lol! We both did well in school & for the most part never caused too much trouble. I was probably the most obedient out of my brother & I. I always did everything I was told, because I wanted my parents to be proud of me. I always wanted them to be able to brag about me & say all these wonderful things. Don't say you never felt the same way because I know your lying! Lol!

Now there is only 1 major flaw. They always expect you to do it. Even as you get older they still want you to listen to them & do as your told. Can you see the problem with that? Now at 25 yrs old I am dealing with that problem dead on. It sucks lol! Normally when your my age you have your own separate life from your parents and/or family. Yea not me. They wanna be in EVERY aspect of my life. & they also think that I should do what they approve of.....

*sigh* Frustrating to say the least. I feel like I'm a teenager rebelling against my parents. Isn't that a crazy thing for a 25 year old person to say? I mean I have no children or a husband yet. So why do I have to not do certain things because my parent's don't approve? It gets worse. If I do something they don't like they guilt trip me & talk down about whatever it is. See how they try to be tricky to get there way?

So what do I do? I get that they wanna see me do good, but sometimes we gotta make our own mistakes, if they turn out that way, to learn & grow. I found this quote online that I have to share,

The first half of our life is ruined by our parents and the second half by our children.

Think about it for a second. True isn't it?

XOXO,

Him.

I'll always remember... I'll never forget, how you took my breath away, the first time we met. No matter what happens... no matter what we do, I'll always remember the first time I saw you.

Fit Tip Tuesday.

To avoid weight gain and promote weight loss, eliminate sugars and “heavy” carbohydrates at nighttime. To stay lean, dinner should be your smallest meal of the day and you should only be having a protein and vegetables.

Horrible Person.

So one of the guys at work is named Jesse. Now he loves to be smart with me & give me "looks." Now I'm not gonna lie he is an attractive guy so I can't say that I mind. Real talk lol. He's a pretty funny guy so I enjoy talking to him, because it's guaranteed something crazy is going to come out of it! Well the other day when I went to lunch we noticed a dead bird in the fence. Apparently it got caught & died =/ Poor thing. I wonder why no one tried helping the thing out!

Anyway when Jesse was leaving work he noticed it on the floor & at that same time I happened to glance out & guess what I saw???? HE KICKED IT! YES KICKED A DEAD BIRD!! I was like WTF!!! I told Cheryl & she was like WHAT?! I couldn't believe he kicked the poor bird, dead or not! I confronted him the next time I talked to him & his excuse was that he didn't know it was dead because the wind was making it move around. Seriously if it was alive I'm pretty sure it would have been flapping its wings crazily! He also said he nudged it! I was like hell no! I know the difference between a nudge & a kick! He was just laughing & laughing...damn liar lol!

I kept calling him a horrible person so he left lol! Well when I got off he had left a note on my windshield saying, "Don't hate!" LMAO! I was like wth! He's the bad person! So I had an idea. I went today & bought a fake bird! I'm gonna leave it on the windshield of his car with a note saying, "Don't kick this one!" LMAO! Cheryl gave me idea to write that & I knew it was perfect! I wonder what he's gonna say after lol! The only thing that could ruin it if it rains! I could put it in a Ziploc bag......lol jk!

XOXO,

Dang.

I just realized I have no life. I'm so out of touch with everything since I started working. I don't see any of my friends or anything. It's like I disappeared from life. Seriously. The only reason I realized this now is because I didn't even know it was a good friend of mines birthday. Facebook had to tell me *smh* I know shake your head along with me. I seriously need to keep in contact with my friends.

I'm such a horrible friend =/

XOXO,

Fit Tip Tuesday.

Studies show that doing a certain action 21 times in a row creates a habit. Try picking a healthy activity (for instance, choosing a healthy snack when you are hungry) and stick with it for 21 days. See if you can create a new healthy lifestyle habit.

Love.

Age.

I wanna pose a question. In a relationship does age matter? I know this is more of a question that depends on the relationship. But over all can it work? I know the biggest factor is what can you have in common with someone younger/older? I also wanna say that communication is key!
That's with every relationship that you have romantic or not!

For me i think that the most important thing is how you feel. If you care enough about this person to take whatever problems may arise then who's to say it won't work? All relationships have problems regardless. If your willing to stick with this person thru thick & thin who is anyone to judge. Unfortunately there will always people who judge you and the choices you make. That's when having a strong and stable relationship comes to play.

I think with a relationship with an age difference the biggest factor will be what is said by friends & family members. In a perfect world they would be happy with who you were with as long as they knew you were happy. But that's not how it is lol. That's a unfortunate reality. They say they will support you but what they mean is they will support you if its something that makes them happy. If you don't think so then seriously stop & think about it.

My answer to my own question is this: I don't think it's right to count anyone out. Whether it's because of age, race, standing, etc... Life is too short for "what ifs" so if your happy then go for it, In the end it's either going to work or its not. Take it as a learning experience & move on. & most importantly stand strong 7 don't let others judgments or opinions get you done. it's your relationship not theirs.

“Doubt yourself and you doubt everything you see. Judge yourself and you see judges everywhere. But if you listen to the sound of your own voice, you can rise above doubt and judgment. And you can see forever.”

Patience.

Lately I have had 0 patience. I honestly don't know why. I feel bothered by things lately. It's more of just being asked a ton of questions. One thing I hate is being asked about EVERY little thing I do. I don't see what I do with myself a concern for anyone else but me. If I chose to let someone know what's going on with me I will willingly tell you. The worse way is to try and pry & ask a million questions. In those situations my patience goes to nonexistent lol.

I get that part of my temperament from my Dad. Thankfully I am not as bad as him, but I have my moment's lol. Sometimes I know that I'm doing it & try my hardest to restrain myself. Key word TRY! I wanna say that it starts with being annoyed but I can't because it doesn't go through a cycle, just to question = annoyed. My personal equation right there lol! But seriously I need to consciously try and be better about it. One day I'm gonna snap & Its not going to be pretty for me or whoever it is lol!

XOXO,

Fit Tip Tuesday.

The FITT Principle is a great way to overcome plateaus and change up your workout routines. FITT stands for Frequency / Intensity / Time / Type. Frequency: how often you exercise. Intensity: how hard you work during exercise. Time: the length of time you exercise. Type: the type of exercise you do. To continue to make progress, change up your routine by modifying two of these factors every 2-4 weeks.

No Life.

I realized lately I have had no free time for ANYTHING! The only time I can do things is Friday after work & Saturday. I don't have Sunday's because it's football Sunday DUH! Can not miss hanging out with my cousin's watching football all day & eating good food! I get off ai 4:30 so your probably like then go after work! Right?! Well no because I am tired & don't wanna be out running errands. Some day's I can when I feel pretty good and don't feel like crashing out. That's not very often tho lol!

So honestly Saturday's are the days that I can try and get things done.....unfortunetly it never seems like enough time! I always forget or can't do something in that one day. Can you see why I am tired? & don't get me started on my sleeping habits. I am finding myself going back to my bad habits! I honestly don't know why! Maybe I need to cut down on the kpop jam sessions =/ Okay that's not gonnaa happen lol!

Basically my point is I have no life.
Who knew growing up was so tiring ;p

XOXO,

Fit Tip Tuesday.

Craving sugar? It usually means that you haven’t been getting enough protein. Try spreading 1 tbsp of peanut butter on half an apple to crush the craving!
