She Has Returned

You know those really bizarre moments when the same thing keeps popping up.... everywhere? Or you start thinking about someone, and suddenly you run into them at the grocery store? ... Synchronicity is a crazy sensation. Well: This happened to me. I started thinking about how much I used to love writing in on my blog... then suddenly, my sister asks me why I never write anymore. About a week later, I run into an old friend from elementary school who says, "I used to read your blog... Little Bee, all the time... do you write in it anymore?" ....

Well! My popular demand and random coincidence, I am back in business. Healthy Little Bee iz back (Cuz we really iz doe). ... Just ignore that reference.

Today is the first day of March, and I am rededicating myself to getting back in shape. To those who followed my blog before, you should know that I had an incredibly dramatic weight drop... which yes, to those who have wondered, resulted in an eating disorder. I had to step back from the fitness and health nut lifestyle because I was literally torturing myself physically, mentally and emotionally. Through many doctors' appointments, self help books and general reflections on life, I have actually returned to my happiest state! (Let the angels sing!) I am now 1) Average weight 2) NOT trying to lose ANY of that weight. 3) Eating whatever the hell I damn well please 4) Happier than ever.

On that note though, I sincerely have not worked out or consistently exercised in over a year, which is a fear of mine that I will fall back into the same routine. I genuinely miss being active... so my March promise to myself is to incorporate BABY WORK OUTS! :)

These will consist of 1-2 of the following elements:

  •   5-10 minutes of crunches / calisthenics
  • 5-10 minutes of random dancing (Zumba is in fact: Oppression).
  • 5-10 minutes of squats/lunges/butt things
  • Yoga
  • Walking dogs
  • 1 minute jog sessions
  • Jumping on trampolines
This list could continue, but for the sake of the point I'm just gonna tell you this... I am taking it easy and HAVING FUN! All I can ask for in life is that people let me be who I wanna be... and this is it. You will not see me set foot in a gym (Unless it is to visit my super sexy boyfriend who now works in a gym... yup, I said it). I intend to eat what I want, wear what I want, do what I want when I want to.

I am the Healthy Little Bee,
I am back,
Try & stop me!
