Let’s Fly Back Into Fall!

October 7, 2014

Hey Divas!

I know I have been a bit low on the fbj scenes as I have been working hard on the next campaign launch! I’m working on a smaller scale campaign ‘Fly Back Into Fall” as a soft launch into the main campaign that kicks off this Winter! I want for us to really start connecting and getting into the habit of building these behaviors so it is not a huge shock to our system come Winter!

The ” Fly Back into Fall “Campaign will run Monday October 13th through Sunday December 21st. There will be a weekly challenge posted on Sundays to help us warm up and prepare before the Official Kick-Off this winter! All that you need to get started is a pedometer, and a commitment to change!

You can join in anytime during the campaign but I recommend you start on the 13th to get the full benefit of the program.

If you are not ready to commit right now you can get in on the action in 4 Easy Ways @ anytime you are ready!

#CommitYourSelfie Challenge!

Hey Divas!

I am going to be completely honest I really did not want to post up these pictures today. I was cool with the front shot but then I thought you know, I owe it to myself and to my readers to keep it real and keep the raw and uncut version as promised. So here I am thinking ok not too bad from my front shot……. then I took my side profile shot and was like dayumm…………..ummm yes girl.

We got some work to.

The purpose of the commitment photo is to mark our starting point. I will post a 30 day a 60 day and 90 day pic. I am hoping that this pic (especially my side bar shot) will serve as my motivation when Roberto’s Nachos are callin a diva!

You know ladies jokes aside, at the end if the day it’s just not healthy to carry all this weight around. Weight especially in the abdomen puts a lot of pressure on vital organs and can impair their ability to function properly like our liver that one we kind of need it to work in order to survive. I’m just sayin. #IJS

I challenge you to join me take a picture of yourself #flybyjuly hashtag to get in on the challenge follow your progress and I will follow you back! Please be sure to shoot a front shot and a side shot of your body so you can see your progress. I used a cool app called Pic Stitch it’s great for simple collages where you can do a split screen shot of your two pics.

So take a Commitment Selfie today. There is no need to do the whole bra and panties shot or having your tummy goodies and lady lumps all out and about no fancy camera tricks needed because we are not going to need it divas. A picture can say a thousand words your friends n family be like ” Daaaayummmm is that you? ” and we will respond ” Sho-Nuff. ” with class of course.

Be Healthy Be Fabulous!

The ” 90/10 ” Rule

December 22, 2011

Mia The Diva

 

Hello Beauties!

In addition to being fabulous, a lot of our lifestyle is structured around what we eat. In weight management food is very important.

People can work out for hours and hours, cardio and power walk, run themselves to death sweat out in saunas only to get frustrated when just ” water weight ” comes off and never really seem to lose anything.

Such a shame after a Diva has sweated her hair out and no results!

 

 

In managing weight it’s 90% of what you eat, and 10% of exercise, so let’s check out how our diets compare:

The American Cancer Society has developed guidelines to help you reduce your risk for cancer and other ” lifestyle ” illnesses like heart disease and diabetes etc.

Did you know that scientist estimate that 35% of all cancer deaths may be related to what we eat?
We don’t need to be buying flowers for any divas anytime soon so check out these steps listed below to help get us started on the path to eating clean.

* Avoiding Obesity ( weighing more than 20% or more of your target weight standard based on your frame and if you are small or big boned )

* Eating fewer foods that have high cholesterol levels.

* Cutting down on fat intake – primarily from animals that come from meat and dairy products

*Eating bulkier, high fiber foods like veggies and whole grain breads and cereals

* Eating at least 5 servingsof fruits and veggies each day especially those rich in vitamin A and Vitamin C.

* Consuming moderate amounts of salt cured, smoked, foods like bacon, ham, and smoked fish.

* Don’t blame it on the alcohol! LoL limit your intake if you drink at all

* Cutting down on salt

* Reduce intake of sugar

* Reducing fat intake

* Choose food items with less than one gram of fat per 30 calories.

* Keep saturated fat ( found in animal products and packaged foods ) less than 10% of total calories.

* Calculate the percentage of calories from fat by ( amount of calories x .30 = number of calories from fat )

If you need help on deciding what to eat and how much of it use The Food Guide Pyramid.
