“I hate myself for allowing you to use me help fill that void you have inside that heart of yours. Filling my mind with thoughts that I will remain under the shadow of “what if’s” and “I wish”. I hate myself for allowing me to keep crawling back, trying to fill that hollow soul of yours, asking myself wether your empty spaces are calling my name or hers. I deserve better than feeling used, getting attention only because you’re confused, looking for love in words that fall flat once you’re amused“

Hi, I'm sorry in advance if this is annoying and self pitying. I'm an overweight teen who's trying to start a healthier life style, but with no support system and strong cravings I don't know what to do. I want to stay motivated.

Hey there ! First of all I would like to tell you that there is nothing to be sorry for 😊 so if you have any questions I would be more than happy to help you ! That being said , motivation is key when starting any fitness journey ! And it is not that easy to keep the motivation up , so don't worry you're not the only one who struggles with that . Being a teen can be lots of pressure as you want to look your best whether it's for yourself , your partner or college ! So set a goal first ! Set images on your mind of how confident & happy you would be if you reach your goal ! And remember that the fact that you aren't where you want to be should be enough motivation 💪 . You said that you don't have a support system . Well, guess what ? You have it now ! You got this blog and you got me and you got all the support from everyone who's going through the same thing as you ! On the other hand , the thing with cravings is a matter of balancing your diet , you don't want to go on starvation mode hoping that you'll lose weight because that won't help . If you can't afford going to the gym or you just don't have the time , I always recommend home workouts that you can find online ! Depending on your weight and your goal I can recommend some of them to you if you are interested . Thank you 😁

Hello :) I was wondering, what do you think about the ketogenic diet? And do you think that carbs are really that important?

Hey there 😊 ! First I just want to say that I have heard and read a lot of conflicting opinions about the ’ Keto diet ’ as it became the current trend . A friend of mine was following this diet and she found it really helpfull at the beginning as she was obese and had a lot of weight to lose , so she was extremly motivated when she started shedding pounds . However , for people who had not that much of a weight to lose things didn’t go that smoothly .. you’ll lose weight at the beggining because by limiting your carbohydrates, you can lose body fat at least as effectively as when you follow a low-fat diet , in other words , low carbohydrate levels cause blood sugar levels to drop and the body begins breaking down fat to use as energy. But after a while the body goes under starvation mode and it actually becomes harder to lose weight ! Overall , if you’re not that obese or diabetic I don’t think that the keto diet is the way to go ! I mean you’re gonna be happy after losing that initial weight but it’s not gonna be on the long term .. at least that’s what the experts think ! So for me it’s better to go on a reasonable diet and exercise so you’ll lose weight and be athletic at the same time . But if you’re thinking serious about following this diet I would highly recommand you consulting a specialist ☺ . I hope I answered your question and GOODLUCK 💪❤

I started Yoga at home do you think this will help with getting lean? I don't do much cardio just yoga atm

Absolutely ! But it also depends on your weight , if you're in shape and you just need to tone up and get a lean body , the right yoga exercises will definitely help you . But if you have more weight to lose then you should incorporate some cardio in your fitness routine . I hope I answered your question and goodluck 💖💪💪

Hey! :D I was wondering how do you shrink your hips and flatten your stomach stomach? Is diet important when trying to shrink your waist. What's the best workout for hips and stomach? ❤️

We always hear that abs are made in the kitchen & that is totally true . So yes , diet is really important when it comes to your waist and stomach . That is to say , doing 100 crunshes and planks won’t help if you don’t eat clean . So in addition to eating clean and drinking LOTS & LOTS of WATER , you can do wokrouts such as planks , crunshes , push ups , side bridges , hip bicycle thrusts , burpees , sit ups .. Goodluck 💪❤

I started eatin healthier to lose weight. I am walkina lil more. I have cut out junk&soda &have up my protein &also been doin protein shakes &hot lemon h2o. a week in& I actually gained a lb. instead of lose. Is it normal to gain with more protein?

Hey there ! I hope you're doing great :) . Anyway , from reading what you wrote to me I can say that the pound you gained is actualy' muscle '( so it's not bad ) but you should be really careful especialy in your protein shakes intake except if you're aspiring to become an athlete and build more muscle .

How do you stay motivated?? I am for awhile and then just quite..what should I do?

I see a lot of transformation ( before and after ) photos , a lot of motivational quotes and stories , and what I have been loving recently is watching ( Try on Hauls ) in Youtube and since almost all female youtubers have incredible bodies , clothes look amazing on them so it gets me motivated and stuff .. you can also check my blog and other fitness blogs for motivation .. engage in conversations with people who are going through the same thing .. set a goal .. take a moment everyday and think about how you would be feeling and how you are going to look if you do the work :) . Goodluck 💪💙

So after a month long bought of no motivation, I went on a run today. I took my inhaler before so I didn't think I would have a problem but 5 minutes in my lungs felt like they were on fire. I am so discouraged. My boyfriend is being really supportive, saying that I'm just out of shape &once I get back in the groove I'll do better but this never happened before even when I was in worse shape than I am now. Has this ever happened to you? Do you think it's simply a result of me being out of shape?

Do you warm up ? What do you eat / drink before running ? Me myself I have breathing probs so when I started running for the first time I could not complete 3 min without feeling like I'm about to die 😶 . I would eat the wrong food , not warm up and I was out of shape , basically it was a recipe for disaster . First of all I would suggest that you follow a plan if you're new to running , for ex , for week 1 I would walk 2 min and run 1 min (× 10) . Week 2 I would run 2 min and walk 1 min ( ×10 ) and so on .. It's amazing how our bodies get adjusted to what we do .. so as time goes on you'll be amazed when you see that you're able to do things you couldn't do in week 1 ! If that did not work I would highly recommend consulting a doctor because it might be smth that has to do with your physical condition . PS : (when running always carry your inhaler ) 😊 .

Hi :) I'm a pescatarian and cheerleader but I'm struggling to get a flatter stomach for summer do you have any advice

Getting a flat stomach is all about eating the right food & avoiding temptations , + do your cardio + ab workouts which you can find online if you don't have access to the gym . If you've been following my previous posts you'll notice that I recommand this channel called ( Fitness Blender ) a lot , I think it's gonna help you a lot . Anyway , as I said bfr I really do believe that abs are made in the kitchen , so eat clean ♡ Goodluck 😁💕💪
