Hi! My name is Jamie. Welcome to my
little slice of blogging life!
I’m starting this blog as a way to share some my health and fitness journey along with other like all things Disney, my life as a caregiver for my parent, inspiration/motivation, and beauty. My goal is that this blog will help inspire, educate, and entertain you along the way!
For as long as I can remember, I have struggled with my body image even when I was a fit dancer in my younger years. After college and the passing of my mother nine years ago, my heath hit its rock bottom. I was not taking care of myself or treating my body like the temple it should be. My journey started after a trip to Walt Disney World in May 2012. I was horrified when I saw our pictures. Who was this person? Though she is smiling, inside she was unhappy, unhealthy, bloated, sore, and so uncomfortable. I have tried various diet or workout plans over the years with little success and I just plain was not happy. None of the programs I was trying were truly working for me until I found some inspiration on Instagram. I had started following a number of health and fitness related accounts which led me to Shakeology and TurboFire in May 2014. I had finally found something that was working for ME!
I have lofty goals when it comes to my weight and fitness, but they are definitely achievable. I’ve hit some stumbling blocks along the way, but that hasn’t stopped me from pushing through. Though I have not hit my goals yet, I am having fun and finding my little successes along the way with a variety of different programs and rooting my nutrition plan in Portion Fix (as know as the nutrition plan from 21 Day Fix) along with Shakeology. My priority is to eat clean 80% of the time. I do my best to choose wisely, but it is still a challenge with my “on the go” lifestyle.
My goal is workout 5-6 days per week. I do not always accomplish it, but I always make sure I schedule them and try my best to make them happen. I currently rotate TurboFire, Les Mills Pump, PiYo, walking, and soon I will be adding T25 and Insanity: Max 30 to that rotation as well. My friends and my team all say I have workout ADD, but I like variety!
Thank you for checking this out! I hope you’ve gotten something out of it and will return to share your comments, join me on other social media platforms, and pin/share the content you love!
