How Do You Get Out of Poverty?

Reds

Georgia's Juice [embed]http://youtu.be/J7-Y0SVZlGg[/embed] Those who have never experienced life in a lower economic status won’t be able to relate nor will they be able to tell you what it truly takes to make it out of poverty. Initially I thought money was the cure for poverty, but I quickly realized through my own experiences that poverty wasn’t just about finances. People who remain in poverty are typically there because of their mentality, the choices they make and the lifestyle they choose to live. Granted some may have an illness or disability which prevents them from obtaining financial stability, but in cases where people are fully capable of being financially independent, I think it’s safe to say, their financial mentality is keeping them in poverty. Again, my first thought was that you…

Should I Waist Cinch/Trim/Train? Pt.2

Neutrals

If you missed part 1 last Friday check it out here There's a lot of mixed information out there about waist training. So much so that you can find articles to support whatever side you take on this topic. I know, I did my "research" before purchasing 2 waist clinchers and a waist trimmer. But which side is right? [gallery type="rectangular" size="medium" ids="6788,6789"] What I've found is that it's ALL true! I don't have X-ray's to claim that my organs were affected but after consistently wearing my smaller waist cincher my ribs were always sore. However it helped my posture tremendously and I did lose inches around my waist. So which do you listen too? Well first understand that no matter how many cinchers, trimmers, lifters, miracle wraps you use, nothing will…

Should I Waist Cinch/Trim/Train? Pt.1

Neutrals

My friend April posted this on Facebook. Had to share it because it inspired this post: I laughed so hard when I saw this but she's right. Shortcuts are never the move but many women are using them to get the ideal body type. These days it's a literal hour glass: big breasts, teeny tiny waist and big hips and butt. I have no clue if the above pic was photoshopped, I just found it on Instagram. I say that because some women are actually built like this -but more often than not they had some help. For example there's camera filters, specific posing angles and photoshop apps for the internet and IG, but what about when you want that look in person? Do you know there's such a thing…
