Stay Positive. Keep Going.

Staying healthy and fit has always been a lifestyle choice for me. I always try to stay fit and eat clean but it doesn't always happen. Now that I'm 21 years old I realize how difficult it is to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I'm not that 17 year old who played volleyball and tennis and worked out on top of that. I now know how America is so overweight! Working a 9-5 job 5 days a week and a night job on Saturdays is tough! I try to eat clean but sometimes that one person in the office brings chocolate peanut butter fudge brownies and tell yourself not to eat them! Sometime you have to indulge even if it's half a brownie instead of a full block!!

Keeping weight off as an adult is tough when your working all the time and having a life. When I'm at school I'm completely focused! I go to the gym practically everyday, eat healthier, and stay motivated. But for some reason when I try to do this at home it's harder. Probably because of my nana's cooking...but in my defense I've been doing really good!! I workout even if it's at 10 o'clock at night! I take the stairs walking to my internship everyday! But sometimes cookies come to play...mostly gluten free options but still...I try every day to keep up with everything. I wish I had more time to spend on working at my best self but sometimes you just have to make due with what you got.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is yes it's hard to workout and stay healthy. It's a lifestyle change! It will be worth the wait! You have to be patient! That coming from the girl who can't wait for anything!!! Believe me when I say when your time comes and you know you want a lifestyle change good things will happen. Keep going! You can do it!!! Stay Positive!

Lots of Love,

It All Started With A Pair Of Heels...

Well, it's about that time...the time being the first ever blog post I posted on the internet. Today, July 3rd marks the first day I posted my first blog. I know I've changed names about 10 million times and I know I don't have the most following ever but I'm proud to call myself a blogger. I wish I was dedicated to it more and I'm working on it. I really am! Sometimes I get discouraged because I've been blogging for 5 years and don't have much of a following but then I remember why I started. I wanted to give girls (and guys if there are some reading) my advice on life! From beauty to fashion to  fitness to love and more!
Some much good has come out of this blog even if it hasn't gone to far! It's been through the rough times, the good times, the sad times, and the happy. But I'm not the awkward 16 year old you use to know! Ok, I'm still awkward...some things never change. But I have grown up a lot! You've seen my awkward high school years, prom, pageants, graduation, first days of college, hair colors (brown to blonde!, see me throw the years saying how much I want to do acting and modeling and I'm finally achieving my dreams! If there's one thing that hasn't changed are my dreams. I know I've always wanted to be an actress/model/fashion designer and one day that is exactly what I'll be. All you need to do is stay focused. Sometimes little things get in the way but you just need to brush them off and remember that Rome wasn't built in a day (is that how the saying goes haha).
I hope when you read my blog that you see a friend, someone you've known for years and keep up with through the blog. New things are to come always. I hope you follow along :) I know I'm not perfect but I'm having fun! And that's all that matters.
