Let me put something out there that we all know. We
all come in different shapes and sizes, that's just how life works.
I get asked SO often how I stay thin. My answer is
always healthy eating and exercise. My metabolism is a major part of the
equation as well. It has always been good and I am thankful for that. It runs
in my family and I can thank my Mum for my metabolism.
I'm a firm believer in accepting your body. If you
are happy and you are fit then there is no reason comparing yourself to other
women. A lady I know is constantly eating chocolate; sometimes all day long.
She complains of putting on weight and asks me for my secret.
I often point out to her that we are all different
and if everyone was the same size, what a boring world we would live in.
Your body is what you eat and what exercise you do (I know there are other factors!!).
A healthy eating choice is one step closer to having the body you are looking
for. I think so many people are hung up on comparing
themselves to others and this is unrealistic.
There are so many websites and blogs that have tips
on healthy eating, healthy recipes and quick exercise routines (or long ones if
you are so inclined). So many resources at everyone’s fingertips for that
little nudge toward getting healthy and fit and loving yourself that will have people wondering why they didn't start earlier.
I myself used to eat heaps of junk which I am slowly cutting down on. I'd like to become fit and healthy and to do this, I need to exercise more and eat less of the sweet treats I once loved. I won't cut this out completely, I will do it slowly. I don't think anyone should cut out their treats completely; we all need something to look forward to when eating lettuce (ha!).
Do you try and stay healthy?
Do you exercise regularly?
If so, what is your favourite way to exercise?
