Hey, everyone! I used to be "ThisGirlLosesWeight," but I've changed it. This is my fitness blog (: I'm 5'3" and have gained weight since I've been at college. Hopefully for my senior year I can get to where I need to be. I hope you all have a wonderful day! If you have any questions, ask away! :)

The Placebo Effect is scientific proof that we have the ability to heal ourselves. Our thoughts are powerful enough to bring things into existence.

The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself.

“you approached like it was heavy, so it was.”

[championsaremade]

i associate this quote most with…RUNNING, and workouts, and races. approach them feeling light and excited and with the belief that you have worked hard to run fast.

[life-on-the-run]

i am not kidding you i LIVE BY this quote. running, school, relationships, everything. if you believe it’s going to be hard, you’re probably right

Y’all might remember that I had you guys sending postcards to Gus and Charlie, because Gus was fighting cancer, and losing kind of badly. Gus was 7 years old when he died on September 29th, just prior to what would have been his 8th birthday.

My friend Sasha held her son as he died and then carried him to a hospital, so that at some point in the future no parent will have to deal with this. In his death, Gus may have provided answers to the questions his incredibly rare and deadly form of cancer brings to the table. 

Gus was only able to make to almost-but-not-quite 8 years old because of the ACA. He was able to experience things and live as full a life as possible and learn about dinosaurs and go to school (he was diagnosed young, prior to even entering school) and make friends – because of the ACA. His mother and father were only able to afford a service and cremation because his ACA-compliant insurance paid the bulk of the bill. They were only able to continue financially caring for their youngest son Charlie (who just turned 7 years old…yesterday, I think) and keep themselves in food and housing rather than going bankrupt…because of the fucking Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. 

With her permission, I have posted this here, because I want people to know exactly how badly Republicans will be screwing children, and their grieving parents, over if they repeal the ACA. 

For Gus, who never made it to 8; for Sasha and her husband, who lost their son; for Charlie, who lost his brother –

For all of the other parents and lost children who are and were in the same boat –

We can’t let Republicans do this. We need to step up to the plate. Because they – Sasha and Gus and everyone like them – can’t.
