Clementine, darling

I love food. I like my vegetables raw, and any kind of fresh herb or spice. I dislike running, treadmills or roads, not my thing. I like to attend all different gyms to for the aerobics classes, spinning, yoga, you name it, ill try it at least once. Trying to keep my body healthy, I am recording my thoughts and experiences on everything from eating healthy (and sometimes not so healthy), to the latest motivational quote that im currently obsessing over. Oh, and everywhere in between.

living on a roller coaster,
Clementine Darling.




Roadblock number 6: You’re shooting for a realistic size 6 instead of a near-impossible 2. What’s wrong with that? We know size 2 jeans look like they were made for a 10-year-old, but, according to a study of 1,801 people published in the International Journal of Obesity, women who set unrealistically high weight-loss goals dropped more weight in 24 months than those who kept their expectations low. Detour: The study authors concluded that having an optimistic goal motivated women to lose more weight. And the participants who failed to reach their magic number did not quit trying to drop the weight. Could aiming for Sienna Miller’s figure really help you reach your goal weight healthfully? “If you’re a driven person and a lofty goal motivates you,” says Blatner, “it can work.”
