Body Image and Exercise


I had this goal to start doing the 30 day shred this week. But you know, then that time of the month happened and that goal went out the window.

Let's talk about body image for a minute.

We're surrounded and bombarded by images of what is "pretty" and "acceptable".
I will be the first to say I've been taken in by them.

I have never really subscribed to the weight thing. I mean, I think it's important to be within a healthy weight range, but I definitely don't think that you need to be ruled by your "number".

Anywayyyyy.
I go through these phases. One when I wish I was a lot skinnier (think high school days), one when I like myself just the way I am, and a bunch of others.
The point being, I am really going to get my booty into gear and lose some weight. Ok, scratch that, lose some inches. I'm the laziest person I know (seriously) and so it's going to take a lot of motivation and grit to actually stick to a fitness plan. Believe me, I have tried and failed many times.

(OMG JENNY YOU ARE BEING SUCH A BRAT AND STOP WITH THE DARK MAKEUP)
(Sorry, quick rant, watching Gossip Girl over here...)

There is really no point to this post.
Other than I am going to stick it to the man (or rather stick it to me) so my clothes actually hang a little more like they are supposed to :)
