No Change, No Gain

When I sprained my foot a month ago, I thought that I would be good as new in just a few short weeks. Not the case at all. I have heard many stories about sprained ankles and feet. The healing process is absurd! I might not fully recover for months, even years! I have decided that I'm not going to let it hinder my weight loss goal. I haven't gained any weight since my injury, but my eating habits have gone downhill, and my exercise-minimal to say the least. Thus, I realize I must have lost muscle mass and gained fat. Bleh. I'm going to the gym today and am going to take it easy. I don't want to strain my foot too much, but I need to start making a change somehow and lose weight. I think I may have been using my injury as a crutch, and it's about time I stop! I remember what it was like when I first shed all of that weight, and I want to feel that like again. I think I just expect it to happen, and realize that I actually have to put effort into it. Please send me good vibes!


And now for some tunes.

I can't stop listening to this! It's just so darn catchy.

On The Wagon

I fell off for a short period of time, but I a feeling very, very positive right now. Today I found a skirt that I absolutely adore. I bought it. The thing is...I put it on and felt very comfortable in it...but I just know that my parents are going to point how poufy and frumpy it makes me look. I have lost some muscle mass and gained some fat since spraining my foot. Tomorrow, I am planning on going back to the gym and I'm hoping that I will start back into my old routine again. It has been awhile though, and I'm not quite sure how much strength my foot has, but I just feel so gross and fatty haha. So that is the plan for tomorrow!

I also bought a purse and a top. I'm so excited to wear them later this week!


I have a very busy week ahead of me, but I'm looking forward to every moment of it :)


Although this isn't the most cheery song, the tempo is so upbeat. It also raises awareness about youth violence, specifically gun violence among youths.

Remember to always support those who you love, and even those who you don't love. You never know who's day you will brighten with a gesture of endearment...and in turn change make a difference in his of her life. 

Love and all that,
