I created this blog for all of us individuals who are trying to fight the fat and get in shape - but in a healthy way. As I've been searching the web for diet/exercise motivation lately I've been saddened to see how many Pro-Ana and Thinspiration sites have taken over the net. I get it, I was in high school once too, but NOW I'm an adult, who LOVES chocolate and having a nice tight ass. I don't know what sort of vodka/adderall/ambien cocktail all these girls are drinking, but THIS is not sexy:
I don't know about you, but I've dated guys before, and they all tend to respond to women the same way. Us ladies can sit there at look at Angelina Jolie when she's going through one of her "I'm starving like the babies in Africa" phases and be like "Damn, she's amazing!", but most guys we know are all going to say the same thing: "Yeah, she's super hot, but she's almost too skinny right now". Why would they say this you ask?? BECAUSE SHE IS!!
Aside from the train-wreck/emotionally-unstable lot of Angelina's, Lindsay's and Olsens', most celebrities and Victoria's Secret Super Models are not anorexic. They wouldn't have the tone and definition that they do if they were, nor would they have the ability to work 14-hour days.
So here I am. This is my tribute to real women, with real jobs, and a realistic body image. We don't need the perfect body, but we can get our bodies to be something we feel proud of and comfortable in, without going off the deep-end.
Why do I need to exercise? Because I love food, and yes I'm going to go to Chipotle and McDonald's, and when I can talk the boyfriend into it, The Olive Garden. So I exercise. Not always consistently, I can't fit into ANY of my jeans right now, but I know I will. I also know that when I do, I'll look toned and healthy, because I will be.
So here's to REAL thinspiration:
