OMG ...

OMG you guys I threw up at the gym!!!!! :(

I was really desperate with my progress, like I had no idea what I was doing (not like... I actually have no idea what I am doing) so I hired a personnal trainer. Even tho I can’t really affort it I figure it was an investment.

But back to the story ... she really kicked my ass BADLY. That trainer is bad ass warrior and she really pushed me. I really want to change and I really want this so I just went with it but at some point I felt dizzy, then tingly in my arm and leg... then nauseaus and next thing you know I puke! Last time I threw up was probably when I was like 19 and I would have been too drunk to even remember, it’s not like I have a weak stomach. I just tried so hard my body shut down. How humiliating. Should I text her? Apologize? She will probably thing I’m cray-cray!!! 

God god god ... I am more motivated then ever, to loose the weight, to be in shape. I want to become a bad ass princess warrior just like she is!

Next appointment on wednesday, I’ll keep you guys posted.

does anyone else have sudden urges to reinvent themselves, travel the world, starting jogging, learn new languages, learn to cook exotic foods, redecorate, or start journaling? like you’re just sitting there and all of a sudden you want to be able to speak fluent latin or look out over paris from the eiffel tower, or be standing over a shiny metal pot stirring some kind of soup in an apartment that’s perfect for yourself? because i get that a lot.

Good bye 2014...

I've been thinking about how this post would (or even could) go...

This picture sums it all

I refuse to quit because I failed in 2014. 2015, I will own you!

I wish I had taken ballet younger to learn the grace and composure that it embodies. Is it too late to start at 28?

Defining moments

You live your whole life thinking that when a defining moment will happen you will know, but most of the time it's only afterward that you realized the implication of a decision. 

I always tough that when the time to make a decision between my family, my friends, having time to develop myself, do photography, etc. and money the choice would be easy. I expected it to be a no brainer. This week I was confronted with that exact choice: pursue my career as a management consultant, making better money then most people I know or go work for a university, where I'd have a killer schedule, would be working on amazing educational projet but, have a little less money. 

I surprise myself by being tortured about making this decision. Who have I become? The very hesitation I had confirmed that I needed to take the university job, before it was too late. Too late for what I'm not sure but I got a little scared. Scared that I was welling to keep working 70-80 hour a week in the name of money. 

So I am officially announcing you all that I quit my job, left a VP I adored, colleagues I saw more then my boyfriend and that on the 24 of november I will be starting to work for a university as a projet manager. It's so surreal but like one of the girl who left the insane lifestyle I am in told me: you won't realize how much you needed this until after. 

And to be quite honest, now that the decision is made, I am really exited to be home for dinner, to have time to work out, to have time to dedicated to my health and to work on a proposal for a master degree, which I plan on applying by 2016. 

So this week I lived a deciding moment and I was fully aware, I feel like I just completely changed the direction of my future and quite frankly: I am TERRIFIED.

5.6 down! So let me get this straight... Eating LESS and moving MORE leads to weight loss?! Wowwww what a concept... Who knew???

[misskitkatcupcake-deactivated20]

Just a reminder, that no matter what you read on tumblr:

Losing weight is hard

Changing your lifestyle or fitness levels is hard

You will make mistakes

You will learn a lot about yourself and those around you

Its OK and normal to be scared that you will fail - lets talk about it

Its OK to be honest about your fears - lets talk about it

Don’t be afraid to change your method or direction if its not working

You don’t have to pretend your journey is easy to make your followers happy Be humble. Love yourself.
