I'm a little short on time lately but I do have a lot of plans in mind for this blog. I was contacted recently to tell a part of my life story and when I came in to do so, they also wanted to do a photoshoot right then. It was a little overwhelming and took me off guard but I'm so happy to inspire more people. This particular story will reach a minimum of 40,000 people they said in my area and even more online. It is only a small part of my story and even my last post about My Body Story is only but a small part of what I've had to face in my life. I'm not sure how detailed I want to get in the future but my goal is always to give people hope!
I would like to post more about my diet and how I eat, keeping your metabolism running fast and efficiently and even dealing with the mental aspect of trying to love your body in this recent culture that glorifies thinness. I grew up with that waif culture and it was one reason why I became bulimic and then anorexic at 16 years old. I hate that it is recently making a comeback where curves are out and rail thin is in. I believe this will only harm girls and women even more as their body image becomes their being and that is a depressing road to walk on. It has been proven that being underweight is just as deadly as obesity. We have to consider our body shape, genetics and how fat cell storage locations varies from woman to woman in order to keep ourselves from unachievable fads.
I also want to blog on fitness and how blood flow is probably what will keep you alive the longest and bring a healthier body and even skin. Exercise helps you increase your blood flow and is crucial. However, too much can create a stress environment on your insides and keep you in an inflammatory state. There is a balance here and that is something I plan on talking more about.
