UPDATE/ NEW BEGINNINGS

Hello lovely people! As some people may be aware, I have not posted in ages; it’s been a really busy summer moving back to the UK, working at festivals and today I had the first day at my new university. I’m now in the school of adventure studies which means that for the next four years I’ll be hiking, biking, skiing, canyoning, and learning about all sorts of outdoorsy stuff! I want to put my full attention into this new endeavor of mine which inevitably means other things must take a backseat; posting food pics, gym goals and general tumblr scrolling is something that has helped my motivation so much as well as the online support from you guys, but it is now time to say “goodbye” or rather “see you later” as I am not deleting my account but leaving it dormant in the hope that some of my old posts might help to motivate/ encourage others.

Thank you, it’s been rad, keep loving yourself and others, keep enjoying the process, keep being patient, keep on keeping on.

With love, 

Bryony(newly found adventurer) xxx

So hurrah! Three years on and it’s easier to walk up the stairs, fit into a plane seat and find clothes that don’t have to be adjusted by my mum! I have by no means a perfect body but it is, thankfully, somewhat healthier and fitter. It was a tough realisation in which I essentially had to change my priorities completely and it left me with a lot of confusion about myself… what I like doing, ideas for future plans etc BUT looking at this now I can tell you it’s been worth every “no thank you” and bead of sweat, and it will never stop being a challenge and that’s okay. 

So make 2017 all that you want it to be, for the sake of your health, both mental and physical. Don’t feel guilty about taking time on yourself; self care is important. And celebrate every victory great or small!

Still here, still living. Life is good.

You’re allowed to eat. You’re allowed to be lazy. You’re allowed to take breaks. You’re allowed to say no. You’re allowed to take care of yourself. You’re allowed to live for yourself.

Mini fridge meal prep! 👍That’s life in a studio apartment on Long Island for you. Short on space? Learn what doesn’t have to be refrigerated!

had a lovely morning run this morning on the woody, country connecticut roads i call home. definitely not as smooth going as my trail run yesterday, but a run is a run is a run. and getting out there for the miles is really what it’s all about. going in for an 8 hour shift at 11 to start off a 4 day stretch. i had such a beautiful weekend though and the sweet freedom of summer vacation from grad school right now is making me melt. add a runners high into the mix and i’m lovin’ on this gorgeous monday.

[healthy-equilibrium]

Looks beautiful there!

I keep the size 22 shorts so when I’m doubting how far I’ve come I whip them out of the closet and get into them. I feel like the road is long with health, but at least it’s much easier to walk up the stairs, hang out the laundry, and y'know, do life stuff without the extra 40kgs on.

First posted this 2 years ago... whaaat?! Haha... sometimes I do need a reminder of how far I’ve come rather than beating myself up over gaining a few pounds.
