Hi Divas!
Welcome to our first official week of ” Flying Back into Fall ” Rome was not built in a day so it will take us time to reach our fitness/weight loss goals. We can’t just say I want to lose 20lbs … 50 lbs… 100lbs… or run the NYC marathon this spring and not have a plan!
There is a saying that goes If you fail to plan then plan to fail.
This is something that I have struggled with for years because I did not know how to plan. I did not know much about calories and to be honest it was very confusing and frustrating because I did not understand it.
A healthy journey is not a straight arrow there are a lot of turns and curves and rebounds it’s not an easy road to travel but as along as we stay on that road we will eventually reach a fork where we can either continue to healthy journey or go back to our old ways. It’s up to us to decide.
Yes! We will have to know what we are eating and how much of it we will need to know how much exercise we are doing so we know what to change. Taking notice now will pay off BIG come Campaign season!
It’s kind of like this think of a house being built without a blueprint if you ” wing it and piece it together is this a house that you would feel safe living in? It’s no different with our bodies.
If your goal is just lose weight for the sake of weight loss then you can lose weight with any diet literally…but if your goal is to be Healthy Fly and Fabulous then subscribe to the blog and read on… divas the first step is to get moving again… it’s hard, it bites hard! You know what, it’s worth it. I just started a walking regimen that includes a lot of stairs and an hill. I complain but then I remember who I am doing this for, myself. We are no good to anyone one else if we are not in check ourselves.
If our physical activity is low the total energy our body burns is low. There is no diet anywhere that will allow a diva to not exercise and maintain a healthy weight if she be over or under.
Yes it’s true you can lose weight thousands of ways without having to exercise. A diva can only do this for so long until she loses her weight starts feeling cute ( we’ve all been there ) and then ….. ahhhhh relaaaaax and BOOM! The weight come back on.
Fauuuuuwww***k.
It’s not all about weightloss… getting active will make a diva feel absolutely Fabulous and she will want to be more active! So get out there and give it a whirl!
Be Healthy! Be Fabulous!

Hey Divas!
Because this is how I walk. OWN it!!!’
I remember my first fitness date so many years ago I told myself: “Today I Run.”
I made it to the mailbox.
I know many times we wanna hit the gym, join that online 30 day ab challenge, run a marathon, do a thousand sit-ups, pop in a P90x CD and ” Go Beast Mode ” take heat divas, sometimes the lofty goals although fantastic are just not realistic fitness goals to maintain when just starting out.
I have set lofty goals in the past only to end up disappointed and angry with myself for not keeping up and went right back to my X Mr. McNasty answering his late night foodie calls….as the saying goes… sometimes we have to walk before we can run.
Walking by far is the most effective and safest exercise for a diva just starting out on her healthy fitness journey. Lots of divas start by just simply walking.
Here are 5 Whys Why Walking is a great First Fitness Date!
1. It’s free no gym membership!
2. Just about every diva can do it from 2 to 102!
3. We use most of our energy walking in our day to day activity we do it daily!!!
4. Take it to the streets! You can walk anywhere the mall the office, around your house…
5. Get a pedometer! It’s an easy way to track activity a diva needs to know her math!
I’ve fought it for many years at the end of the day we have to know our numbers to lose but more importantly to maintain weightloss the daily goal to maintain healthy daily physical activity is 10,000 steps a day.
#FitTip Walking 30 minutes meets daily physical activity requirements to maintain physical activity requirements, take it easy divas you can work your way upto 10k! Rome was not built in a day!
So OWN it Diva Get Out there and Walk!
Be Healthy Be Fabulous!
