Stop Sabotaging My Fitness Goals!

Happy Thursday city peeps! We are more than halfway through the week, hooray! I hope everyone stays focused and strong until TGIF, beastmode style!

This post is inspired by my recent experience with people that sabotage instead of support my healthy lifestyle. At first, I didn't realize what was happening; I was skipping workouts and having cheat meals more than once a week. I wasn't meeting my fitness goals and it didn't feel right. What was happening? It wasn't like me at all. I started to take notice and realized I was being sabotaged! The saboteur turned out to be a master manipulator - it wasn't their first time - and loved to prey on my vulnerability. They knew I was tired after a long day of work and that I was having a sugar craving. Pure evil! I didn't stand a chance. In retrospect, it's easy to see how I succumbed to the negative pull of peer pressure. In a moment of weakness, my healthy efforts were seriously derailed.

Hi guys, Happy Weekend! How are you keeping active today?

Today's post is on how important nutrition is. What you put into your body will definitely affect how well it performs. It's common sense, but sometimes we don't really stop to think about it.

Over the past few weeks, I've been bad with keeping up with my clean-eating. In between Lunar New Year celebrations (fried goodness galore), eating out, work parties (cake for breakfast!), Valentine's Day chocolates, & just being surrounded by goodies everywhere I go - really doesn't help the situation. Lack of self-control while being on temptation island also doesn't help.

*Side note: V is really good at resisting temptation island, especially at work parties. Me on the other hand, I will have a little bit of everything. And don't get me started on sweets, I have the biggest sweet tooth ever known to mankind. Plus I love to eat! Who doesn't?
