I wouldn’t have guessed that you have depression Is something that I often hear from others. I hide it well.... Just because someone is always smiling doesn’t mean their smiling on the inside. Some days I feel like such a fake. One day I was crying all day, for whatever reason. I was thinking all day I should get someone to sub my class tonight but I didn’t. I didn’t want to be consumed again. I was crying in my car, I got to the gym and cried in the bathroom, I managed to pull myself together enough to walk into the room where a few ladies were already waiting for me... Hi Amanda, what have you got planned for us today! And boom just like that I’m back to my upbeat self laughing with them about the gruelling workout I’m about to put them through. After class I sat in my car the shadows and dark fog came back, but for a moment I smiled as I thought to myself I picked the right career. All my stress and worry melt away when I’m at work, sometimes it can be stressful but most days are pretty dam great. I’m grateful to work in an industry that feels more like play.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! When I have a new client and their goal is to lose weight my first question is usually What did you eat for breakfast today? You are literally breaking a fasting so your body is starving for nutrients. Feed it well ... #food #breakfast #weightloss #nutrition #livewell #eatwell #youarewhatyoueat #eat #yum
