This blog is about a healthy lifestyle. We understand that there are no quick fixes or crying over the number on the scale. We are weight lifters, fast runners, and clean eaters. This is a change for the better and for the long run. There are no short cuts, only hard work.
And we love every second of it.

Honey has many health benefits. I don’t believe in food groups.

“Hey! Is yoga pretty much your exercise of choice now? I'm finally getting into practicing again after shoulder surgery and I'm going to commit to it five times a week (vinyasa). Since surgery I'm pretty weak and it's just like starting over, how long did it take you to really start to see that you were excelling in your practice? I know it's different for everyone, just curious. Thanks! xoxo”
-corlovesyou

Pretty much, but mostly because they gym here is full of athletes the majority of the time. When I go home for summer I’d like to start taking my puppy for runs and get back into heavy lifting.

The fact that I was really strong from lifting helped my practice advance pretty quickly. I was doing arm balances and inversions within weeks, and for some people that can take years.

“How do you feel about people who don't make an effort to be fit? Do fat people disgust you in any way because of your differences in lifestyles?”
-Anonymous

Absolutely not. I am not fat shamer.

However. I do feel bad for them in a way, but I think it’s inevitable, you know? Like, I would never use the word “disgust,” but being healthy is such a wonderful feeling. And I use the word healthy instead of “thin” or “fit” because health isn’t based off size or appearance.

So I would say that it makes me sad to see overweight people that are still young (50 and under) that need to use a cane, a wheelchair, struggle walking two miles an hour, breathe loudly from pressure on their lungs, and basically just struggle with tasks that should be done simply and without even thinking. That just doesn’t seem like any happy way to live to me!

And of course, before I get attacked, I obviously know that some people have health issues that cause people to gain weight/not be able to lose weight/blahblahblah. I’m talking about people who would rather eat and sit on the couch than play in the park with their kids or go on walks with friends.

This is part of the reason I wanted to become a nutritionist. So that I could help people make simple, better life choices so that they can live their life to their fullest potential. Because we really do only live once.

Y U NO CATER TO GURLS WITH BOOTIES?

“Hi, for easter I've been given loads of chocolate! I really don't want to waste it so what would you say is the healthiest way to go about eating it? Thanks :)”
-Anonymous

Portion it out into reasonable sizes in little baggies, and have one baggie a day! :)

I forgot I had a chocolate bunny still until now.

Half of that bunny is now missing.

“Hey Kaley, where do you do your workouts? Do you do them at home or a the gym? I'm still at school at the moment so I cant really afford the gym, so do you think it's okay to work out at home? Thanks :)”
-Anonymous

Kaylie, but you were close haha.

I do them in my room, in my class, or in a studio, considering I pretty much only do yoga right now.

At home, I’m lucky enough to have a home gym. After my dad had cancer my parents went insane on being healthy. I remember being a kid and not understand what “organic” meant so I hated that suddenly everything in the house had to be it haha! And personally home gyms save money overtime. Gym memberships are crazy expensive!!!

Of course it is. There are endless amounts of things you can do at home. Yoga, pilates, weight lifting, bike riding, roller blading, dog walking, running, hula hoop, jump rope…

“Because I'm fairly new to fitness I'm starting out by doing a program in which you workout 6 days a week but my body is struggling with it which in turn is leaving me less motivated to do it. In your opinion do you think taking it back to 5 days a week with 2 days to recuperate is a better way to do it?”
-Anonymous

Do whatever you think is best for your body. This is why fitness “programs” are dumb. Not everyone is on the same level, and programs are designed for just that! If you’re feeling too tired and unmotivated because it’s too much, there’s not problem with taking it down a notch.

Then begin! Get a gym membership, or start doing yoga or pilates! Buy some free weights! Google some exercises for each part of your body then make plans for each day!
