If I am talking to my friends in between classes, I stand on my toes and pulse. Anyways, it is a quick mini workout that could be a stepping stone for everyone who is trying to incorporate exercise into their daily lives.

IWorkout

Hello Friends,

I just finished working out, yes, I finally worked out. I did a couple Blogilates videos which I will link below because Cassey really pushed me today and you will love her!
DO THIS CALENDAR!


By the way guys, I kinda pigged out today. I mean, we had no school, and yeah I was bad. I have to throw away all my junk food and keep it all clean. I don't want to tempt myself anymore.

Also guys, I really wanted to share this so people can relate and don't feel sorry for me: My family thinks I am fat. I am fat. But,  all the negativity can get to me sometimes which is the main reason I eat A LOT. I eat because I am stressed out sometimes, but also because I get sad. But, I realized that, their opinions towards me don't matter. Yes, it hurt me before and it still kinda hurts me today, but now I am motivated to become healthier and eventually I will become fitter and I will look better in jeans then my family. I will be stronger than them, healthier than them, and I will succeed. So, what I am trying to say here is that, don't surround yourself with people who are negative about what you are trying to do and accomplish. If you wanna be vegan, DO IT. If you wanna be a vegetarian, I SUPPORT YOU. If friends don't support your decisions, don't let them dictate your life, and if you don't like what they say, just ditch them. If its your family, ITS YOUR BODY. ITS YOUR MOUTH, you decide what foods you what to intake, but, make it healthy! Listen to yourself, because you know whats healthy, not them.

I hope that makes sense and I hope you become motivated to eating clean and working hard. THIS YEAR IS ABOUT YOU. You can do it.

RECAP:
Snacks:
-chocolate mini nuggets - I ate probably 8 of them
- Triscuits
- banana
- orange
-Ritz crackers
- Icecream….

Dinner:
-Chicken Nuggets

It was a fatty day. Never again, I feel sick XP

Moving Forward

Hello friends,

So today was a better day for me, I drank more water whenever I "felt" hungry. I am going to start drinking more water everyday and try to take out sodas from my life. I a slowly leaning away from candy and sweets, but some days I might reward myself.

Breakfast:

-chewy bar

Lunch:

-Grilled Cheese
(white bread/american cheese)

Dinner:

Strawberries and blueberry yogurt.


I am also trying to intake smaller proportion and be moderate in what I eat. I saw this tip that if you eat slower than you usually eat, you body will tell you that it is full. So, I am going to try that throughout tomorrow and I will see how that goes.

Sleep also plays an important part with your body, and my sleeping schedule is completely out of sack because I have been on break and I am going to get  wake up call tomorrow we I have to wake up at 6:00 am. I have been falling asleep around 4 or 5 am, so this should be interesting.

Things I need to do:
-Sleep
-Drink water
-Exercise
-Eat healthy

-Keep moving forward

-Alexis Medina :)

Work

Hello Friends,

So today was just a tiring day, I swear, I think the holidays got to me. I am just a fat blob that works and sleeps.  Meh, anyways….

For breakfast, I had Wegman's Cinnamon Squares Cereal, it was yummy. However, It wasn't the healthiest choice I should have picked. But, I didn't have any OATMEAL! and I love me some oatmeal.

For lunch, I had a Club Royale from Jason's Deli..and as delicious as it was, it wasn't the smartest choice I could have made. Needless to say, I will now on stick to the salad bar there.


I drank a lot of water today, so I am proud of that. Pat on the back for Alexis and anyone else who drank water today! 

Also, I found this fashion youtuber today on Youtube, and her name is Jenn Im. I saw her video "How I Lost 10 Pounds, and was very inspired by it. She was saying to remix my meals, take pictures of my meals (which I do now), drink more water, add more healthier food and fiber to my meals, workout, and cut out the carbs. You guys can watch her video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci0gjKhImCo.

She also talked about blogilates too, which I will link here as well: http://www.youtube.com/user/blogilates.

Whoever is reading this now, don't give up, I know that sounds cliché, but you can do it! I have faith in you, have faith in yourself that you can make these changes. For me it's hard, but I know I am changing for a better me, a happier me. I want to feel happier looking in the mirror. I want to actually feel more comfortable in my skin. I don't want to look like girls in magazines, any other person. I want to have own my body but make it healthier, and with more health conscious changes, I believe I can do it. ANYONE CAN DO IT! YOU CAN DO IT! If you believe, you can achieve, and you will succeed. 



-Keep Moving Forward.

-Alexis
