Body Update

Hello Loves!

So a couple of you have been asking me for an update on one of my main new years resolutions… getting myself in shape. I have to be honest this is a resolution I have been struggling with… HARD! I mean I really hate working out, and then there are so many distractions like eating chocolate cake under a blanket snuggled up with Coal (my doggy) while watching Netflix

Current Netflix Faves:

  • Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
  • Cooked
  • Happy Valley
  • Doctor Foster

and then bloody Orange Is The New Black season 4 comes on June 17th… it’s a never ending cycle. Ugh sorry I went off on a tangent there… back to the topic. The moral of this post is my wedding is coming up in just a little over a month and I need to get myself in order. UGH. I plan to get myself another gym membership (for the 4th time in 2 years… oh the shame), and attempt to do some sort of squat challenge or something at home. This is making me tired just typing this, haha the struggle is real.

I am so sorry and embarrassed that this update hasn’t been a productive one and I’m not able to be like b*tch look at my Kylie Jenner boot-ay but this is real life. Sucks.

Does anyone have any tips on how to get in shape, real quick?? Please help me!

    Haha, great post, Filipa! I love reading it! I think you have a perfect body. You are so in shape ;-).
    You can motivate yourself by hearing music at the gym or run with a friend, it’s much easier to make sport with a friend 🙂
    Hope you’re having an amazing week ahead, gorgeous!
    Much love, Pisa

    Great workout gear. I enjoy working out as long as it’s not too intense. A light power walk, plus resistance training every other day are enough for me.

      Oh I would love to start kickboxing again, I did it when I was younger. It’s so much fun. Thank you so much

    Ahh I really know all your problems – I also hate working out, but I really have to do it because I want to be in shape and a bit fitter than I am now. It really is something where we have to go through without any excuses 😉
    But I have to say: your body is amazing!

    Great post and you look fantastic! You have an amazing body – and I love the workout clothes.

    I am definitely more of a chocolate cake and Netflix person than a gym person, so I don’t think I can give you any motivational advice – could do with some though!! xx

    Duuuude you’re doing so well! And you say you hate working out, but frankly you’re doing so much better than me.

    Honestly, I personally think you look amazing! So in terms of the wedding, I don’t see an issue with you fitting into a dress or anything, you look really lean and I’m not just saying this, you really do look great! If you just wanted to get more sculpted/toned, I’d suggest following along @Michelle_Lewin, this chick’s workouts are AMAZING! She also has a YouTube channel where her workout vids are a little longer than they are on Instagram. I follow her and do a lot of her workouts and have seen great results! I also don’t think you should feel embarrassed because we’re human and sometimes, it can be hard because life happens! I know you can and will accomplish your personal fitness goals, I’m rooting for you, gorgeous!

    XO,

    I know what you mean. I always struggle to get the motivation to work out. There are too many distractions out there, mainly chocolate.

    You have a fabulous body. That workout gear is lovely.

    You already look pretty athletic you know! If you don’t like working out, not eating between meals can already make a difference in a matter of weeks! 🙂
