20. Chicago <3. Trying to lose weight the healthy way. I don't have any heartbreaking story about having an ED, but I do know I don't want any either. It's gone through my mind several times, but i've been strong enough to push it aside and know that's not the right way to go about losing weight.

I want to be FIT, not skinny. I want to be beautiful, not bony. I want to get the the point where the number on the scale doesn't matter any more because I am happy with my own body. I want to start living healthier, and stop treating my body like it's a wasteland.

Height: 5'4"
HW: 139
SW: 135
LW: 119

CW: 131.8
GW1: 129
GW2: 124
GW3: 119
UGW: whenever i feel happy in my body. but not 100lbs or under.

The 300 isn’t anything new, but I figured if it was a workout that got Gerard Butler and a bunch of other dudes in leather loin cloth worthy shape, it could definitely help us gals out to feel good in a bikini. Even though we all know their abs were a wee bit enhanced by spray tanning. 

Anywho, the workout is an awesome butt kicker. I’m doing it once a week for a month, so if anyone wants to join in…here’s the workout.

1 Week 1 Goal: Daily Meditation
I have found that a short meditation and yoga session is an amazing way to start my day. It eases any stress, bad vibes, and anxiety and sets a positive mood for the rest of the day. Sometimes I’ll even do a short meditation in the middle of the day if I find myself getting caught up in the craziness of life to just slow down. And of course, meditation before bed is an amazing form of relaxation.
As you can see, there is no wrong way to incorporate meditation into your day by day routine. It can be done anywhere, anytime, and for any reason!
With this challenge, you agree that for 1 week you will meditate each day, for any amount of time, at any time of the day, and for any reason. You also will write a post about how the meditation benefited you and tag it as #1week1goal
So here’s the plan:
In my opinion, there is no right or wrong when it comes to meditation. I feel that meditation can mean different things to different people. So find what works for you and stick to it! But here’s something you could try to start you out!
Find time: There are 24 hours in a day, you have time if you make time.
Find or create a relaxing environment: Make sure to get rid of any distractions. Turn off the TV, close the computer…get off tumblr ;) Whatever you have to do to create an environment that is both quiet and relaxing. And, if you choose to listen to music, make sure to choose a song that is calm and soothing so it doesn’t break your concentration!
Sit in a comfortable position: If you are not comfortable while meditating, your focus will shift to finding a comfy way to sit. So before you begin make sure to figure out a comfortable and relaxed position you will reside in throughout the meditation.
Focus on your breathing: I find that by starting my meditation by focusing on my breathing, it really begins to relax me. So listen to your breaths and follow them…deep breaths in and out.
Clear your mind: This is said to be the “pinnacle” of meditation. Clearing your mind takes a ton of discipline and can be very hard to achieve. You essentially block everything out and focus on nothing. Your mind is clear.
So try it out! For just 1 week, meditate each and everyday for any reason! You’ll start to see the benefits and you’ll create a habit for yourself! And if your anything like me…you’ll be starting your days with yoga, meditation, and green smoothies! :)
So make the pact! For just 1 week! …and then make it a habit! :)
And don’t forget to tag your posts #1week1goal if you decide to participate! :)
Good luck!
