April Foolery {Rant}

Source
March came and went; more like a blur than anything, which tells me to spend my time more wisely. With this being the first of the month, I want to go over some things that I will become foolish over for the whole month of April.

Today I started my 30 Days of juicing, which will definitely be challenging, but I know if I stick to it, I will be able to complete some goals that I have. My motto for this month is "Remember the Why". It is currently on my phone's lock screen, so every time I look down at it I can stay focused.

Another foolish thing that I will get into this month is going hard on my workouts. Not only do I want to focus on the physical aspect of working out, but also the mental and spiritual parts. I've been finding lately that my mind has been running a mile minute with thoughts, ideas, ramblings etc. I really wish my legs would run as much as my mind does, but I digress.

Lastly, because I know I cannot cram everything into one measly ole month, I want to  get foolish about my hair care and promoting it's growth. Last month I whipped up some shea butter and some essential oils, at first for my body, but I also decided to use it in my hair as will, while I do twist outs and such. I do mainly want to focus on growing my edges out, because BABAY, they are not the business right now.

So here's to a prosperous month of April, filled with juicing, hair care, and peace of mind.

Go HaRD!


Go Hard or Go Home! It's been a motto for a while now. I link it to fitness to keep me motivated. Above is my Pinterest Board for my fitness motivation. This year unlike every other year, I am determined to lose not just a few pounds but to totally make over my body. I really want to engage myself in reintroducing myself to myself (If you get what I mean). Along with truly finding and following through with my passion, health and fitness is just one of the top priorities on my list of things to get control of. Below is MY list of why I want to transform my body from what it is now to what it will become.

  • To wear a two piece bikini or a cut out one-piece\
  • To get my belly pierced (again)
  • To have something I never had (a six pack)
  • To get that V in my pelvic area
  • Overall to be Healthy
  • To run 5K's, Half-marathons, and maybe a Marathon
The list definitely goes on and on, and perhaps may change. I think I would like to see how small I can go then perhaps tone and bulk up from there. 

The body is simply an amazing creation. Of course we can thank God for that, after all we are all created in His image and He only creates Masterpieces. Now while I am on this not so easy but oh so worth it journey, I know I will hear plenty of those people that will say "Oh your weight is fine", "That's too much weight to lose" "You won't look right". And all the while I will turn deaf ears upon them and just keep climbing.

We were destined to be and do great things, so why limit myself to what fat cells try and restrain me of? Taking it one day at a time, one fruit, one vegetable, and one pound at time, I will see you guys on the beach in my two piece. I do not have anything detailed as of what my regimen will be as of yet, but do know that it will include lots of exercise and clean eating. Everyday is a new day and a new challenge; and challenges can only be met if we face them.

Go Hard!

Weekend at a Glance

Saturday was a High Bun and Scarf kind of day. 

At the train station, heading to Summer Streets.

My roommate is fitter than a 5th grader.

Left my mark on a canvas.

I FINALLY purchased a pair of Vibram FIve Fingers!!! So excited to start running in them.
