Dates with almond butter...mmm 😋 You wanna know something crazy? I used to be TERRIFIED of dates. . Not because I thought they were gross. But because “They have too many carbs. Too much sugar. Are going to make me fat and insulin resistant. Will cause mad sugar cravings.” And the list goes on. #carbs . How many of y’all have thought things like this around a certain food before? 🙋🏼‍♀️ . The problem wasn’t the food. It was my relationship with it. My problem was FEAR stemming from a long history of insecurity. I was so self conscious that every choice I made was out of fear. I made me miserable and unhealthy. . So you see, I had to fix my own insecurities before my relationship with food could change. And once I did, boy did things fall into place. I now see whole, natural, nourishing foods like dates and bananas as a lovely treat. Sure I have boundaries with them, but fear around food no longer exists. . Are there foods you used to fear that you eat now? I’d love to know! 🍌🍒🍠🥝🍐
Day dreaming about my #goals like 🤩 (beverage in hand of course) . Goal setting is a regular part of my life. I’ve experimented with SO many ways to do it and truth is, there is no one right way! However, studies consistently show that people with clear, specific goals are more likely to succeed and achieve their outcomes. . I have my own way of goal setting that I’ll be sharing with y’all in an upcoming post + tips to finding what goal setting process is right for you! Bc it turns out, HOW you set goals makes a big difference in your motivation towards it. . So, tell me! WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS? Drop them in the comments so we can all support each other 💗 . . . . . . . . #dallas #dallastx #dallasblogger #dallasbloggers #dallasfood #dwfinfluencer #dallasevents #DFWblogger #bishopartsdistrict #lovemyuptown #uptowndallas #loveplano #dallastho #dallaslife #dallasbig #dallasfoodnerd #dallaseats #dallasbrunch #dallasfitfam #dallasstrong
If you make any choice today, choose yourself. Chose to listen to your wants and needs. Choose to get to know your inner spirit. Choose to laugh at your mistakes and learn from what went wrong. Choose to look in the mirror and see beauty. Choose YOU, and you’ll never spend a day wishing you’re someone else 💗 #chooseyou . . . . . . . . #liveinspired #wellnessblogger #wellnessjourney #mindbodysoul #mindbodyspirit #mindbody #raiseyourvibration #healthyhappylife #hippielifestyle #getthelifeyouwant #getwhatyouwant #lookwithin #mindsetshift
Pain in inevitable. The intensity, frequency and reason for the pain, however, are adjustable 🙌🏼 . It’s painful to go through life hating your body; and it’s also painful learning to love yourself. It hurts to shove your dreams aside for a job that pays the bills; and it also hurts to risk everything for your dreams. It sucks being in a relationship you know won’t last; and it’s also heart wrenching to leave and wait for ‘the one.’ . It’s going to hurt either way. So what pain is worth it to you? Personally, the pain of following passion outweighs regret any day! I want my heart to be FULL 💗 . What would you choose?
Smiles are deceptive. 5 minutes before this I was hangry and mean and bitching about everything. So yeah all this mindset stuff can help but sometimes all ya need is some freaking FOOD 🤣🙌🏼 . Just keepin’ it real. Happy Saturday and please for the sake of your loved ones....eat something 😂 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #paleogirl #paleoeats #juicefast #plantbasedfood #veganaf #plantbasedlifestyle #mindsetiseverything #mindsetshift #hangry #hanger #hangryproblems #healthygirl #greensmoothies #beetjuice #naturalmakeup #blondegirls #blondesdoitbetter
💃🏼BLOG POST IS UP 💃🏼 And I’m sharing all the tools, techniques and exercises I used to love and accept my weight gain. Link in bio ✨ . I made a post a month + ago sharing my experience having to gain over 20lbs in order to restore my health. And full disclosure, the weight gain came first and then I had to learn to accept it. It wasn’t the other way around. It’s not like I made the choice to gain weight; my body already made it for me. I just needed my brain to catch up! . This post means a lot to me. It’s a message that so many women need. We hear all the time that we need to “love our selves” but how the heck do we do it?! Well I’ve been through it, and if you’re willing to put in the work I outlined my experience. Hope you love it! . What’s something y’all have done to love & accept yourself? 💗 Photocred: @maribelmoralesphoto . . . . . . . . #bodylove #mindsetshift #goalsetter #loveyourcurves #loveyourselfie #bodypositive #bodypositivity #mindsetiseverything #changeyourmindset #changeyourmindsetchangeyourlife #nlp #healthyweightloss #weightgain #mybody #womeninspiringwomen #womensupportwomen
#whole30 day 4 brought to you by a clean-out-my-fridge hash 👍🏻 My mom and I are doing this together (I really didn’t want to but ya know...moral support) and it’s actually going well. I’m pretty used to Whole30 eating by now so it ain’t no thang 🤷🏼‍♀️ But for those of you asking here’s an update on my mom! . My mom has MS and a bunch of digestive issues. She’s also eaten the standard America diet her whole life. So with that in mind here’s some updates in the first 4 days: -her sugar cravings feel more under control -her MS stiffness has gone down by 20% -she’s lost 3 lbs (hello inflammation weight) -she’s feeling kinda lethargic (working on that) -her digestion feels “different” in her words lol (also working on that) . But overall... SUCCESS! I’d love to do an Instagram live with her or something to share more of her experience once we get farther in. Are you interested? Also, comment about your Whole30 experience or a reason you may/may not want to try one! 💗
My boyfriend @coreycarlsonn seems to do this whole #balance thing pretty well 😝 Paleo dessert in one hand and a drink in the other...I like your style. . Do you feel like you’ve achieved balance with food? Well the first step is to admit that picture perfect balance doesn’t exist, and then you have freedom to create what “balance” means for you. . Food freedom doesn’t start on the plate. It starts in the mind. It begins by finding what beliefs you hold around food and either keeping them (bc they work for you), or squashing them (bc they aren’t working for you). After that, you simply make up some new rules. Ones you actually WANT to follow! How freaking cool is it to be in control of your own life?! ❤️ . We talk about this on @straightuppaleo all the time. A podcast all on crushing food myths and setting the record straight. It just so happens we’re hosting a SUP retreat on August 10-12 in Austin, TX. So if you’re ready to make your own food rules and learn about real nutrition, I WANNA SEE YOUR FACE THERE 😘 Link in bio for info.
