Are you ready for the Stuffing?

In today's day and age we are all worried about the "stuffing" with all these fad diets and "all natural" everything... are we really living as healthy as we should? I mean think about it we all have so much caffeine and can hardly sleep at night... as we scroll thru our Facebook news feed and everyone's post is INSOMNIA...I CANT SLEEP!!! Have we thought about maybe changing our ways losing the stuffing and getting some rest?

Thanksgiving is NEXT WEEK PEOPLE!! While thanksgiving really is one of my favorite holidays I really feel horrible after! I ate enough for 17 people and I cant even stand up and I am in a turkey a coma! (like how healthy can that truly be?)  So as i gear up to get my fat pants ready I am also going to do my best to eat for one! (because it might not be all about the bass, lol)  

 THIS IS WHAT I AM WEARING TO THANKSGIVING!!!

    Here is what I am going to do to ensure I will look human when I go on my cruise on Dec 14th!

I like to eat, so this will be HARD!

One of the biggest things I try to work out is my BUTT!

I hate doing the work out but the results can be great! 

LUNGES!!!! Doing 2 is alright then it becomes serious business and the buns HURT! Here is a pic of me Lunging. ( I am sorry it is so blurry but the only one home to take a picture is my daughter) 

When lunging make sure you keep your back as straight as you can and don't bend your back leg. You can either do walking lunges and alternate legs or you can do these bad boys of side lunges! ( again please excuse the blurry and yellow tint my 5 year old is my photographer today!)

On to my favorite the squat

I prefer to do these in the gym.. being as there is weights to push my self.

Today I am doing them at home with no weights... enjoy!

(haha please excuse the awkward butt angle) 

When doing Squats make sure you go down as far as you can with keeping your back straight. Remember it is all about the form. once you master the form then you can start doing all the crazy tricks...

I have scoliosis so sometimes all I can do is worry about getting the form down with out hurting me or my back any worse! Im telling you that if you do a bunch of these and your booty will be looking hot! (notice my photographer is getting better... just like if you practice getting your form down you will improve!) Now on to abs...

ABS!

everyone wishes they had AMAZING abs! They take so much work... and trust me my abs are so far from perfect! I am improving just like you. Remember that abs are made in the kitchen.. you are what you eat (which makes me a bunch of cookies and chicken noodle soup and everything else I can put in my face!) 80% of abs are made in the kitchen. 20% are HARD work and dedication and determination! Here are a few  of my favorite ab work outs!  On the left we have a classic crunch... nothing to exciting.. do 100 and you will feel it! On the right we have a plank!(it is important NOT to arch your back!) Hold this position as long as you can and you  my friend will FEEL it! On the bottom we have a bicycle crunch where you alternate bringing your knees up to touch your elbows and working your legs like a bicycle.

 EAT healthy and try cut out most if not all the caffeine and try watch your portions! Make sure you are getting enough protein and vegetables Also make sure you are sleeping enough as well as drinking enough water!! My dinner tonight is what I like to call Chicken one pan... 

my recipe is get a larger baking dish spray down with coconut oil cooking spray. then place your chicken and desired veggies into the pan and season according to your liking (I like lemon rosemary and pink Himalayan salt and a little butter on the potatoes but not much).. I use carrots, red-skinned potatoes and fresh green-beans. Bake at 425 degrees for about 20-25 min or until chicken is fully cooked. SO YUMMY! (My family eats all Organic and local if we can!)

 MOST IMPORTANTLY DON'T GIVE UP!!! I AM GLAD I DIDN'T

This was from Jan2014-Nov 2014 (my progress)

 I'd love to hear from you so please comment below! 

Hairdresser by day, Mommy by night.

Hairdresser live the life of rock-stars, one min we are creating some awesome"MAGIC" standing on our feet ALL day with the longest hours ever; the next we are meeting new people interesting people, sometimes famous people.

Being a hairdresser truly is MY dream job. I Love it! I learn new tricks and tips and go to neat hair shows try out the best products and I get to fill you in on my secrets along the way. I love making people feel good about themselves, it makes me feel good However on the flip side I have people saying "wait what? There is no way you are a mom!" The answer is YES I am a mom. I have an amazing and somewhat silly 5 year old as well as my part time kids(aka my husbands kids ages 6 and 2) working as a hairstylist its sometimes hard to be the mommy I want to be because like I said earlier about the long hours.

                                            Tryn my daughter

Juggling life and hair is hard work but somebody has got to do it! My daughter is a total DIVA! She loves going to all the fashion shows and hair shows with me and sometimes she tells me what products she thinks I need. Keep in mind she is 5. this girl has hair breed into her veins... I jokingly tell people she was born in a hair salon. 

As a working mother it is hard on me and makes me sad because my whole life is split in two, half is in the Salon and half is at home! Lately I have shifted my focus and have ventured into the wedding market, BRIDEZILLAS! (lol kinda joking) I have always rocked an up-do/formal style and now I focus on them! I work with makeup artists, photographers and wedding planners,M.O.B (mothers of the bride) and Best-friends! Its long weekends but there is nothing more satisfying then knowing you were a very important part of their special day. The best part is my week days have cleared up a ton and I get more time to be a MOM! One day I will be the M.O.B and I am going to be glad I had time to focus on my own little bridezilla, watching her grow and teaching her life lessons such as cooking, how to clean and most importantly how to be a mother.
