Why BMI Is Completely Bullshit?

BMI (body mass index), which is based on the height and weight of a person, is an inaccurate measure of body fat content and does not take into account muscle mass, bone density, overall body composition, and racial and sex differences.

Please DO NOT use BMI as any kind of an indicator for health, throw it right in the garbage where it belongs!

Measure the number of smiles, hugs, laughs, etc.

Those are the things that really count in life.

Affirmation: I am no longer available for anything other than radical self-love. 

Guess what? Shaming yourself doesn’t work. It leads to self-soothing behaviors which are often the opposite of what you were striving for. Reject diet culture which tries to sell you that you aren’t enough as you are and instead become solely available for the fact that you are a fucking badass who is worthy of everything she wants in life.

Are you working from home? You might have a case of “snackrastonation”. This is what I have called it when we get bored of our work, are avoiding certain tasks, and simply don’t want to do what we’re meant to be doing and we choose to mindlessly snack instead, aka snack procrastination. Some tips to help. 

1. When you go to eat check in with yourself about where the motivation is coming from. Is this hunger, or hunger to avoid? 
2. Right down everytime you find yourself engaging in snackrastonation, is there a particular work task that  you’re always avoiding? Maybe this is something you can take up with your boss or sit down and dig into why it’s causing you so much turmoil.
3. Give yourself lots of breaks! I personally do a pomodoro technique of work for 25 minutes and take a 5 minute break. This keeps me sharp and productive!

I have lots more tips as someone who works from home for a living (not just...

Don’t get stuck in a food rut! Our brain loves to experience pleasure and if we’re always eating the same things it will sometimes seek out pleasure in more detrimental forms like a binge.

Search some new recipes, buy some new foods and be sure to allow all types of food into your daily routine to keep things fun and exciting!

Struggling to accept yourself? We often convince ourselves that if we were to accept how we are right now that it would mean that we stop trying to strive for a better version of ourselves.

This means that we try to motivate ourselves to change through harsh words, punishment, and shaming. How many times have we looked in the mirror and told ourselves that: we need to lose weight, tone up our arms, eat better, hit the gym harder. Or whatever it is that our “inner mean girl” is telling us.

Here’s the thing, practicing self-compassion doesn’t mean that we’re giving up; it means that we’re leveling up! When we let our inner mean girl run the show, what we’re actually doing is driving ourselves away from the goal that we are trying to achieve!

Why? Because when we’re mean to ourselves it causes our body stress. What does our brain do when it feels stressed? It reaches for comfort—eating less nutritious...

When was the last time you set aside time to feel sexy? When did you put on the lingerie, red lipstick and dance in front of the mirror? Let yourself fall in love with yourself. You deserve to take time for yourself, you are worthy of your own love.

Random cool sleep facts:

1. 12% of people dream entirely in black and white.

2. Two thirds of a cat’s life is spent asleep.

3. Humans spend 1/3 of their life sleeping.

4. The sensation of falling when half asleep and jerking yourself awake is called ‘hypnic jerks’.
5.  Sleep deprivation will kill you more quickly than food deprivation.

We hugely underestimated the importance of sleep and our health. If you’re finding yourself always reaching for sugary snacks in the afternoon and late at night even if you are no longer restricting foods, your body might simply be trying to compensate for a lack of energy from sleep. 

Moral of the story, go to sleep gorgeous!

Affirmation: My body is my ally, my partner in life.

It might not always feel like it, but you and your body are on the same team. Your body is always working to keep you alive. Every second of every day it is fighting for you. When we stop seeing our body as the enemy and start seeing it as a friend, food and body freedom follows.
