Eat shit, feel like shit, it's THAT simple

Think about it, you feel like crap when you eat crap but why do we continue to do it. Because it’s delicious, because our brains love eating crap, because our taste buds love it? Who cares? Within an hour or a day, you feel like shit and then you get tired and lazy. Then every day you’re tired and lazy and you can’t figure out why. It’s because you’re consuming shit.

So stop doing it. That’s the hardest part. Breaking the cycle. And when you cheat, you not only feel guilty for cheating, but you also feel like shit again and crave more shit. Shit sucks.

The last couple days, I’ve eaten clean 100% and I may have gone over on calories a bit but I feel awesome. Without the processed sugar destabilizing my energy, I feel good throughout the day. I feel stronger. It may just be a mental thing, but I’m convinced it’s real. I didn’t stop moving until I fell asleep, and I woke up feeling like I accomplished something.

One day at a time. No crap. Never. Not happening today or this week.

I completely agree with this. A lot of the time, people don’t even know that they feel like crap because they are so used to it so it’s just a normal feeling. And when they feel tired from eating the crap, they consume more crap like “energy” drinks and Starbucks. Then they get sick and take medicine and complain about wanting to be better all the while they are eating junk.

If only people would take a chance and be more open to health, they’d realize how much better they feel. Going healthy was such a great choice for me.

fitnessloveaffair: Get Your Best Legs First know that you can’t reduce fat in just one place. Your body takes a little bit of fat from everywhere, more or less in some places due to your genetics. Doing a ton of leg exercises isn’t necessarily going to make all that fat disappear, at least not by itself. We do these exercises to shape and tone the muscles so your legs have a great shape. If you aren’t eating healthy and doing cardio those sexy muscles are going to be hidden no matter how many squats you do. Gaining muscle helps, it increases the metabolism thus burning more calories, but you have to work the rest of your body and have a clean diet too. Try to do one video or pick five exercises and do 3 sets of 8-12 reps (or until you feel the burn) about 3-4 days a week. Do cardio 3-5 days a week too, it can be running, biking, swimming, Zumba, kickboxing, whatever gets your heart pounding and sweat dripping. You can combine strength workouts and cardio into the same day if you want. Make sure to eat protein after your workouts, it helps build muscle! These are, in my opinion, the best thigh and leg exercises and videos. I’ve included links to instructions for most of the exercises and a variety that you can do at home or at the gym. If you workout at home try to get some 8-10 lbs dumbbells, or get a backpack/duffel bag and fill it with heavy books to challenge yourself. If you have access to a gym try these machines & equipment: the leg/hamstring curl machine the leg press machine the leg abductor/adductor machines squats with a barbell and/or dumbbells barbell deadlifts  lunges with dumbbells bulgarian split squat If you don’t have access to a gym try these exercises at home: wall squats jump squats bridge/hip lifts (try them with your feet on a chair/bed) hip lifts on a balance ball (you’ll get an almost instant burn!) leg lifts inner thigh lifts the fire hydrant sumo squats suicides These are my favorite leg videos: Inner Thigh Insanity Slimmer Inner Thighs Legs & Thighs Workout Itty Bitty Bikini Long Lean Legs Workout POP Kicks Kickboxing Bikini Beach Bum Tone It Up Legs & Core
