“Hey let’s get away…”

*le sigh* I know I haven't updated the site in a min but y'all I haven't had time. I've been working 7 days a week, outside of that I've jus been tryna live! Needless to say I need a vacay like you wouldn't believe!! Or at least But knowing my single struggle 2 of those aren't currently an option. Lol! Also I'm one of the millions of adults that don't work in education so no spring/summer break on the horizon for me. :-( But all is not lost!! Here's some activities you can do while you're solo dolo to relax, unwind & won't break the bank! Meditate an hour before bed My sleep pattern is all over the place: one night I'm going to bed at 2am (normal cause I…

All Deez Squats…

Neutrals
I don't always workout when I'm supposed to (more like hardly ever these days!) but one thing I don't miss is my squats!! Thanks Idris! lol! I follow a lot of fitness pages & one thing that irks me is the disbelief that hard work & dedication can give you the body that you want. More specifically get you the booty you want! That's how you get everything else you want in life, why wouldn't your body be the same?! I've never been a big booty chick (or even a medium! I'm more of a super smedium) but being a black female, I can honestly say I've been body conscious about it since at least high school. When I started getting in to fitness it was purely to get healthy…

Results Are In!!

Neutrals
Well my dears, #NoWaistNovember has come to an end! I'm happy & sad to see it go! Not to mention the year is slipping away. Before you know it it'll be swimsuit season & we'll be showing off all the hard work we've been doing! Speaking of showing off, I told you guys I'd share my results from #NoWaistNovember & here they are: I ordered & received my waist cincher on week 2 & I can tell the difference. You can also tell the difference between week 3 & week 4- yeah, I fell prey to the "Thanksgiving & slack on the gym" bug. Lol! Regardless of that my waist did shrink from 29" to 27 1/2" over the month!! I wish it would have shrunk more but there's only…

#NoWaistNovember

It's the last week of November!!! -you know what that means, we've made it to the home stretch!! Don't give up now!! Idk about you but it's a slim (& I mean SUPER slim) chance I'll reach my goals by the 30th & I'm okay with that!! My body has changed for the better these past few weeks & I know my fitness journey is far from over! This week we're gonna go out in a blaze of glory! I mean, we're practically ab experts at this point PLUS the biggest cheat day on the planet (aka Thanksgiving) is this week & we should prepare for all the damage we're possibly going to do. #thestruggle lol! Week 4 Time to sweat it out for mouth-dropping midriff like @followthelita!! Let's start…

Can you feel the burn?!! Alright guys, it's week 3 and by now you should be good in your routine & noticing some changes. You might not have the rock hard abs or the flat tummy you want, but perhaps you've noticed a slimmer silhouette or a stronger core. No victory is too small!! I'm having a SUPER busy week -one of those weeks when you hafta schedule everything (including sleep!) in order to get it all done. But that's still no excuse for missing a workout! As my new gym pal Jesmon told me "Being in the gym all day doesn't mean anything. You can be in the gym for hours & not do anything, or come in for about 30mins everyday & get in a quick, but effective…

So you've been focusing on your core all week & perhaps you haven't seen much of a change. That's okay!! Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day! & don't let others discourage you from your goal! Now on to this weeks exercises! **I am NOT a fitness expert!!!!** I'm simply sharing routines, exercises & recipes I use I decided to kick my waist training up a notch by ordering a waist cincher (aka a corset). One of my favorite fitness gurus, Jenelle aka GetBodiedBy_J, posted some pics of herself exercising with it on her IG & being that I dream of a banging body like hers I decided to do the same! If y'all coulda seen me tryna wrestle to get this thing on..... Lol! I've only worn it twice…

I haven't posted anything fitness related in a while, but those of you who follow me on IG know I've been keeping it up (yay me!!). I must admit I feel better than I have in a very long time & I'm definitely gonna continue this fitness thing! I know a thing guys (& some girls, yuck) do in November is "No Shave November" to prepare for the cold weather. Another thing people do in the winter is pack on the pounds. Now I get it, the stuff your face holidays are during this time but since when did gorging yourself for 2 days equal gaining 10 pounds in 2 months? Well if you're on your fitness tip & are silently dreading the cold like me, I'm here to help…

Life isn't always sunshine & gumdrops -& neither is blogging reviews With the start of Blondie's 3rd year (whoo hoo!!) I decided to not only give you guys the good reviews but also the bad & the ugly too. What better company to start with than one that burned me this time last year known as Bunnyz Creationz. [caption id="attachment_5913" align="aligncenter" width="540"] this is a current screenshot of her page -which I no longer follow or support[/caption]   [youtube http://youtu.be/Qof_ER77Pjw] These aren't all of our messages, but you can see the time span of our conversations (mostly one-sided conversations because she wouldn't respond to me). Also in the video I said I ordered a flask -my mistake, it was a lighter. Some might say why am I bringing up old…
