I'd like to maintain my weight, possibly even gain a little more. I'm no longer striving to be tinier. I just want to be toned and happy with my lifestyle.

Who Would Even WANT To Be A Size Zero?

foreverhealth:

It basically means you have no hips or ass—in other words, a boy.

I’m proud that I’m not a size zero!

Well…I’m officially offended since I do wear a zero and still have curves.

Bashing someone who is skinny is just as bad as bashing someone who’s overweight.

The MOTHER Of All Grocery Lists - You. Are. Welcome. →

fitvillains:

Jamie Eason is one of my absolute favorite fitness heroines. She’s crazy fit, but also smart, thorough and she makes life easy for her clients. 

Some of you have been asking for a healthy eating grocery list, and I’ve been using Jamie’s as a basis for mine for years. Thought you should have a copy!

HEADS UP!You might want to print this (in fact, I insist on it! Print it and keep it somewhere out and about). If you have a smart phone, save a copy of this on it.

If you pick items off this list, you’re making freaking awesome choices. Of course, there are healthy items that didn’t make the list (quinoa, chia seeds, almond milk, dark chocolate): they’re still healthy, simply add them on, as well as any other healthy finds you enjoy. This is simply a good place to start.

You’re welcome!

I’m serious when I say PRINT THIS! It won’t do much for you unless you have it ready when you head to the store!
